Introduction: The host begins by highlighting the need to approach AI ethics from an "externality first" perspective, focusing on the impact on humans rather than just economic indicators like GDP. Historical Context: The episode explores the French Revolution as a case study for understanding the emergence of human rights. The revolution was fueled by systemic issues like feudalism, poverty, and hunger, along with the spread of new ideas about democracy. While the revolution led to significant ...

What is Serverless? Serverless computing is a modern approach to software development that optimizes efficiency by only running code when needed, unlike traditional always-on servers. Analogy: A motion-sensing light bulb in a garage only turns on when motion is detected. Similarly, serverless functions are triggered by events and automatically scale up and down as required. Benefits: Efficiency: Only pay for the compute time used, billed in milliseconds. Scalability: Applications scale automatic...
