2026-11-01
Os and Scott present Lamestream's guide to the US midterm elections. They break down what's at stake for the US and the world, what the polling projects, the key races, and how Donald Trump might reacting if it looks like his grip on power might be weakened.
Then Scott presents a deep dive into AI weapons and warfare, the development of autonomous weapons and Australia's role in building and testing killer robots. They also discuss a proposed new international treaty to curtail the use of lethal autonomous weapons, and why a number of powerful countries are opposed to it.
