Show notes

Jae Kwon, founder of Cosmos and now Gno.Land joins Matt Kim to discuss AI translation restrictions, platform moderation, and the tension between AI’s usefulness and its influence over information. Their conversation moves into programming languages, crypto adoption, decentralization, and Kwan’s vision for Gno.land. They also debate AI risk, corporate and government control, and the limits of proving what is true. Claims about censorship, institutions, technical capabilities, and personal events are presented as the speakers’ accounts, not independently verified findings.Jae Kwon X : https://x.com/jaekwonGno.land: https://linktr.ee/gno.landhttps://fromhebrew.com

it's a damn shame | Ep. 217 Oct 06, 2026

Show notes

Matt Kim revisits Oliver Anthony’s song and the frustration he associates with it, questioning political loyalty, public leadership and whether changes in power improve ordinary people’s lives. He discusses criticism of a Pete Hegseth basketball video, the responsibility creators owe their audiences, paid messaging and trust. He closes by describing his interest in building businesses and a parallel society rather than pursuing change through voting.

Show notes

Matt Kim examines AI’s expansion into everyday life, risk messaging from technology leaders, government involvement in AI safety, and promises of an age of abundance. He speculates about bailouts, public ownership, centralized computing, online content manipulation, and whether a future AI-driven influence campaign or false flag could be indistinguishable from reality. He closes by urging listeners to practice critical thinking and use today’s AI tools while access remains broadly available.

Your Company Runs on Excel. AI Can't Save It. | Ep. 214 Sep 23, 2026

Show notes

Matt Kim argues that the “super intelligence” label is ahead of AI’s real capabilities. He discusses teenagers building with AI, consumer agents, coding tools, agent testing and containment, privacy, and the limits of autonomy. He also offers a practical starting point: choose one useful project, define the goal clearly, and actively guide the tool rather than expecting it to solve everything on its own.

Noticing the Debt Trap? The Fed Just Raised Rates. | Ep. 213 Sep 17, 2026

Show notes

Noticing the debt trap? In Episode 213, Matt examines the Fed rate increase discussed in this episode, rising borrowing costs, and the squeeze on everyday life. From credit card debt to 50-year mortgages, he asks whether promises of affordability offer relief or keep people paying longer. Matt challenges the “strong economy” narrative and asks who benefits, arguing that political loyalty should never outweigh what people see in their own lives.

Did Hollywood Psyop Our Rebellion? | Ep. 211 Sep 15, 2026

Show notes

Matt asks whether the anti-establishment ideas he associates with movies such as The Matrix, Fight Club, and Office Space arose independently or were culturally programmed. He connects that question to surveillance cameras, calls for AI regulation, Neuralink, and a future divide between technologically enhanced and unenhanced people, ending on whether society was trained to accept changes that now feel inevitable.
