On this special episode, we talk to Scott Stapp, Chief Technology Officer of Northrop Grumman about the shape of the modern battlefield and why the Military IOT is critical to connecting the Joint Force.

- 31 minutes 11 secondsArs Technicast Experimental #13.4: Rob Reid and Naval Ravikant, 4 of 4Today we’re presenting the fourth and final installment of my conversation with Naval Ravikant about existential risks. The theme of today’s installment: there’s hope. Yes, really! If there’s one thing that any religious, national or political mindset should agree on, it’s that we don't want some maniac wiping us all out. This creates an extreme good-guy-to-bad-guy ratio, which itself could be decisive—even if lone destructive actors become massively empowered.20 June 2019, 4:00 pm

This refers to a set of dangers which might, in a worst-case scenario, imperil humanity’s very existence.17 June 2019, 4:00 pm

Most of today’s installment concerns a crowd-enabled detection project Sarah created with proceeds from the TED Prize. It’s called GlobalXplorer.
