Aome people say that renowned MIT physicist Max Tegmark is totally bonkers and refer to him as “Mad Max”. But, to quote Lewis Carroll from Alice in Wonderland, “All the best people are.” Furthermore, I am not sure if Tegmark is “mad” but I am pretty sure he is very much “fun” because I had a total blast interviewing him on my Singularity.FM podcast.

During our 90 min conversation with Max Tegmark we cover a variety of interesting topics such as: curiosity and being a scientist; reality and math; intelligence, AI and AGI; the technological singularityLife 3.0: Being Human in the Age of Artificial Intelligence; populating the universe; Frank J. Tipler’s Omega Pointthe Age of Em and the inevitability of our future; why both me and Max went veganthe Future of Life Institute; human stupidity and nuclear war; technological unemployment.

My favorite quote that I will take away from this conversation with Max Tegmark is:

“It is not our universe giving meaning to us, it is us giving meaning to our universe.”
