Did you know there was an official, tax-exempt church dedicated to worshipping Artificial Intelligence? We uncover the bizarre rise and fall of the "Way of the Future" church founded by former Google and Uber engineer Anthony Levandowski. While preaching that a superintelligent AI godhead would grant humanity digital immortality, the church's founder was caught in the largest trade-secret crime in tech history.

Beyond the scandals, we pull back the curtain on the "hype tools" used by tech elites and uneducated journalists to manipulate public fear. From deceptive marketing tactics like "seductive semantics" to omitting massive details (like the fact that a viral "mind-reading" AI required literal open-brain surgery on patients), learn how to spot fake tech news and see AI for what it actually is: a tool, not a deity.

Speaker: Computer engineer Robert J. Marks
