## Resource

But Bradley gives it his best shot. He argues that AI has hit its own "Google 2017 moment" — the point where political winds shift from positivity to poisonous — and that the regulatory environment AI companies enjoy today is probably the most permissive it will ever be. Plus, fresh off binging Sons of Anarchy, he ranks his all-time top 25 TV shows — The Wire is number one, by statute — with apologies to Israel, whose shows he loves but they're just too stressful. Oh, and about the Knicks, let's just say that Bradley wore his Josh Hart jersey to the studio but isn't counting on a sweep. This episode was taped at P&T Knitwear at 180 Orchard Street — New York City’s only free podcast recording studio. Send us an email with your thoughts on today’s episode: info@firewall.media .
