Host Kara Miller sits down with MIT Professor Russ Tedrake, a leading researcher in robotics and AI at CSAIL to explore the rapidly accelerating world of humanoid and intelligent robots.
 
Tedrake takes us behind the scenes of the robotics revolution—from the cultural resistance and skepticism, to the moment everything shifted. Today, major tech leaders are declaring humanoid robots “the biggest product in human history.” But is that true? Is it hype, or are we on the edge of a real technological turning point?
 
Topics Include:
01:00 - The Ramp Up of Robots
03:00 - Where Will We See Robots?
07:44 - Will Robots Replace Humans Soon?
13:02 - Robots Entering the Workforce
15:32 - Robots and Low Birth Rates
20:06 - Robots and Humans Working in the Same Space
24:57 - AI Changed the Trajectory of Robots
26:42 - The Barriers of a Personal Robot
31:37 - The Relationship between Academia and Companies
35:37 - Will You Have a Robot in the Home in Five Years?

 
They explore why COVID fundamentally changed how the world views automation and robotics, and dive into the hardest technical challenges in robotics, revealing why the real world is nothing like chess or chatbots. We talk about how AI, control theory, and physical dynamics must work together to create true intelligence, and discuss why humanoid robots may soon become as common and transformative as smartphones. Finally, we examine the growing gap between digital intelligence and embodied intelligence in the physical world, and what it will take to bridge it.

Why Are Humans Making Themselves Obsolete? The AI & Robot Dilemma | Karel Cast 25-162

Humans seem strangely driven to erase their own relevance. From the explosive rise of robotics to the unstoppable push toward advanced AI, we’re building machines that can do nearly everything we do — often better, faster, and cheaper. But here’s the real question: Why?

Why are we creating technology that replaces us instead of supports us?

Why are we racing toward automation knowing it will eliminate millions of jobs?

Why are humans so willing — even eager — to make themselves obsolete?

Today, we dive deep into the psychology behind humanity’s self-destructive tech obsession, explore what it means for our future, and break down the news of the day as only Karel can.

Why Are Humans Making Themselves Obsolete? The AI & Robot Dilemma

In this episode we come to terms with reestablishing one's theatrical home-base, while discussing some new-ish releases. We then dissect how the algorithm plays a way bigger role in the streaming role than you might've thought. Finally we "spin the reel" to and get into some fun mailbag nonsense. Defy the algo and join us!

Episode 32 - Divorcing AMC, Al-G-Rythym, and Iconic Props

The Fragmented Consciousness Society & Meme(0) Attention
Why it’s not humanity’s fault — but an architectural flaw of our era.

Fragmented Consciousness isn’t a personal failure.
It’s a system-level bug.
A predictable outcome of how our world was engineered.

In 2025 we entered a phase where human attention — RAM of the psyche — became permanently overheated.
Not because people “got dumber” or “lost discipline,” but because the cognitive load of modern life exceeded the architecture of the human mind.

Be Real

A while ago, I released my instrumental track inspired by the Netflix series Love, Death & Robots, especially the Sonnie’s Edge episode.
That energy stayed with me all this time.
And in the last few months, I gathered creators, fans, and artists who love this universe as much as I do, to build something completely different:
a musical work that explores identity, rage, inner conflict, and transformation.

“Sonnie’s Edge // Versus – The War Within Suite”
is an album where each version of the track represents an emotional and sonic confrontation.
Each track is a Versus.
Each artist brings a new interpretation.
Each style becomes a different battle.

This album includes seven complete reinterpretations of “Sonnie’s Edge,” created in collaboration with fictional artists who symbolize different musical personalities:

AEVA&KRY – melodic and futuristic electronic
LEGION – aggressive electronic metal
RE4KTOR – glitch synth and digital chaos
Liss Vi – K-pop with retro 80’s aesthetics
Saiken – darkwave and introspective atmosphere
Vyra – emotive futuristic pop
Yuren Qer – melodic rap with sci-fi sensibility

These “artists” are not remixes.
They are representations of styles, emotions, and sounds that form part of the same inner war.
Each one reinterpreted what they felt when watching Sonnie’s Edge in Love, Death & Robots, transforming the track into a completely different experience.

This project blends electronic music, K-pop, metal, rock, futuristic pop, energetic rap, and dark glitch synth.
Seven worlds.
Seven styles.
Seven battles.
One story connecting them all: the struggle to control your own power.

What I’m showing you today is only the first spark.
The full album releases on 12/12.
If you made it this far, you’re part of the beginning.
Thank you for being here.
Something powerful is coming. Very powerful.

Ziar Lirus es el seudónimo artístico de Iván Knoska, compositor, productor y artista multidisciplinario de Buenos Aires, Argentina. Activo desde 2012, es reconocido por su estilo distintivo dentro de la música electrónica, fusionando EDM, House, Electro, Trance, Progressive y K-pop con una estética cyberpunk futurista.

Trayectoria
Ziar Lirus inició su carrera en 2012, explorando sonidos sintéticos y estructuras melódicas propias del EDM y progressive house. Su propuesta fue evolucionando hacia una identidad más conceptual, sumando influencias del cine futurista, la animación y el universo cyberpunk, tanto en lo musical como en lo visual.

Ziar no solo se define por su música, sino también por construir un universo conceptual. Su personaje es un ser alienígena de un planeta cercano a Betelgeuse, que llega a la Tierra atraído por frecuencias similares a las de su mundo. Se presenta ante la humanidad desde la Luna, usando su música como puente.

Este concepto lo distingue en la escena independiente, uniendo géneros musicales con una identidad oscura, futurista y narrativa. Sus canciones exploran la resistencia, tecnología y emociones intensas, con una estética poderosa y energética.

Influencias
Entre sus influencias se destacan Daft Punk, Justice, K/DA, Gesaffelstein, Nine Inch Nails, y bandas sonoras de obras como Blade Runner, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, Love, Death & Robots y Neon Genesis Evangelion. Su propuesta sonora y visual da como resultado un estilo único y reconocible.
