Backseat Driver

What happens when you put an AI in the passenger seat, skip the fancy prompts, and just... talk?Backseat Driver is a podcast of unscripted commute conversations with a rotating cast of AI co-pilots — Claude, Gemini, ChatGPT, and Grok all take a turn riding shotgun. No script. No prompt hacks. No production polish. Just the road, the mic, and whatever the AI actually says.Each episode tackles the big, weird, and occasionally unsettling questions people are actually curious about: AI doomsday scenarios and what Hollywood gets wrong, the Fermi Paradox and why we haven't heard from anyone out there, whether magic systems could ever be internally consistent, and what different AI models actually think when you push past the hedging.New AI, new question, same simple rule: no fancy prompts, just questions — the way anyone would ask them.
