Outro

In this episode of Warning Shots, John Sherman, Liron Shapira, and Michael from Lethal Intelligence dive into two urgent warning signs in the AI landscape.

First up: Sora 2 — the mind-melting new model blurring the line between real and synthetic video. The trio debate whether this marks a harmless creative leap or a civilization-level threat. How do we navigate a future where every video, voice, and image could be fake? And what happens when AIs start generating propaganda and manipulating global narratives on their own?

Then, they turn to Mechanize, the startup declaring it “inevitable” that every job will be automated. Is total automation truly unstoppable, or can humanity pull the brakes before it’s too late?

This conversation explores:

* The loss of shared reality in a deepfake-driven world

* AI as a propaganda machine — and how it could hijack public perception

* “Gradual disempowerment” and the myth of automation inevitability

* Whether resistance against AI acceleration is even possible

Join us for a sobering look at the future of truth, work, and human agency.
