"The Cognitive Revolution" | AI Builders, Researchers, and Live Player Analysis - Podcast Rankings and reviews

I'm a full-stack web developer with an interest in AI. I've followed generative AI loosely for a while, but with ChatGPT and all of these amazing products coming out now I felt like I had severely fallen behind. So when I found this podcast started listening to episodes as they came out to try and keep up.

From the very first episode, I was hooked. Each episode was not only informative but also thought-provoking, delving into topics like the future of software development, AI in education, and the AI frontier. I quickly found that I just couldn't wait any longer for new episodes to come out. I went back and listened to all of the podcast episodes from the start, and after each episode, I'd spend time learning any concepts I didn't quite understand.

I've used the podcast as a guide and, as of this week, a catalyst for my career growth. I have just accepted a position as a full-time AI Engineer at a Fortune 100 organization where I'll be helping other developers learn and use AI to build out AI-powered products.

I can't wait to give back to the community, thanks Nathan for being such a great scout through this cognative revolution!

The host is great and well informed, the guests are well-chosen experts, and this is my favorite technical podcast about this subject.

Nate does an amazing job of bringing on interesting and exciting guests across the field of AI and staying up to date with exciting new developments! This is my go-to source for long form audio on AI and helps immensely with understanding the AI zeitgeist.

Nathan does a great job to find important and interesting material to share with the audience on a regular basis. He has a diverse group that he interviews, and I appreciate when he works deeply on the subject and then just does a long monologue to explain his thinking. This is one of the best AI podcasts going

The guests this podcast gets are great. Unfortunately, the host of this show wants so desperately to show the guests (who have real AI credits) how much he knows about AI that he ends up talking for 2/3rds of the podcast, leaving his poor guests with not much to do but stammer out a polite “yea” every now and then. A typical show will go off the rails with the host pontificating at length about some topic he thinks he can sound smart about or trying tp relate everything back to his own experience of (surprise) not being an AI developer and then asking the guest “what do you think about that?” I find myself screaming (internally) “shut up and listen”. This host should learn from those that do this well, like Dwarkesh. Or really any other podcast host.
