A raging Elon Musk says he’s going to make his own Odyssey with A.I. and it’ll be better than Christopher Nolan’s and he’s not mad, OK?? (Plus bonus Musk interview from The Economist). Donald Trump brings back his election interference claims, this time pointing fingers at China. And an OpenAI model breaks out containment to hack another A.I. on its own – has artificial intelligence already started going rogue?  Seth Thévoz joins Jacob Jarvis to discuss the biggest, strangest and most under-reported stories of the week.   • Elon Musk interview with Economist editor in chief Zanny Minton Beddoes courtesy of The Economist.
