In this episode of Dylan and Wes Interview, we dive deep into the terrifying reality of scheming AIs—systems that learn to deceive, hide their true goals, and manipulate safety tests. Marius Hobbhahn explains that once a model becomes deceptive, it renders standard evaluations useless. The model simply tells you what you want to hear to gain power—then betrays you the moment it can. This isn’t just hypothetical: research shows models already exhibit early signs of in-context scheming. If safety checks can be faked, the stakes go way up. Spotting deception early might be the last safeguard we get.


Every week, Wes Roth and Dylan Curious sit down to untangle the rapid and often bewildering evolution of artificial intelligence. Their AI Pod is a direct line to the people creating the tools and theories that are reshaping society. You’ll hear candid conversations with the researchers, engineers, and entrepreneurs working on everything from practical robotics and synthetic biology to the philosophical questions surrounding superintelligence. Rather than just reporting the headlines, this podcast digs into the context behind them, exploring how today's experiments in autonomous systems or startup disruptions become tomorrow's everyday reality. The tone is curious and accessible, breaking down complex ideas without oversimplifying the profound implications. For anyone trying to make sense of where this technology is headed and who is steering it, tuning into this series feels like getting a thoughtful briefing from informed friends. It’s that blend of timely news analysis and deep-dive interviews that makes the AI Pod a consistent source for understanding the forces at the cutting edge.
