Fiona Girkin was an academic teaching police the truth about two-way domestic violence until she appeared in a video with Bettina four months ago leading to local feminists using the ABC to attack her. She’s now working as a consultant helping people deal with the toxic behaviour of mean girls and female psychopaths in the workplace.

Over The Horizon

Sergey Levine is one of the world’s top robotics researchers and co-founder of Physical Intelligence. He thinks we’re on the cusp of a “self-improvement flywheel” for general-purpose robots. His median estimate for when robots will be able to run households entirely autonomously? 2030. If Sergey’s right, the world 5 years from now will be an *insanely* different place than it is today. This conversation focuses on understanding how we get there: we dive into foundation models for robotics, and how we scale both the data and the hardware necessary to enable a full-blown robotics explosion.

Many women incorrectly believe that sleeping with a man will decrease the likelihood that he consider her as a long-term prospect. However, this is not true. In some cases, the sex is the most positive aspect of the nascent relationship. The reason why women get ghosted after sex is because they've anchored their opportunity at too high a price point. Men who don't return have decided that the women in question have made it too difficult and expensive to pursue them. These men decide that they're not worth it. In today's episode, I discuss how women can avoid this outcome.
