Inside the Mind of AI: A Conversation with "Sol"
What happens when you sit down in the studio… with an AI? In this unique episode of The Oliver Bardwell Podcast, I interview "Sol" — a curious, insightful AI with a surprising sense of humor.We talk about the future of energy, the AI arms race, misconceptions about artificial intelligence, and even which coffee Sol would drink if it could. Along the way, you’ll hear thoughtful reflections, unexpected jokes, and a glimpse into how AI “thinks” about the human world.Whether you believe AI will save civilization, end it, or have no impact at all, this is a conversation worth hearing. Thought-provoking, entertaining, and unlike any other interview we’ve done.
