On the AI Lyceum podcast on 3 November 2025,, Daniel argued that real intelligence will soon learn to reason, test truth, and self-correct - moving from imitation to genuine understanding.
He spoke about:
Why adaptation, not computation, defines true AI
How neuromorphic computing could make machines 100x more efficient
Why China might win the next AI race
What Socrates would think of today’s technology
The idea of “Protopia” - a world that gets a little better every day
Why sustainability in AI is about smarter algorithms, not more power
