Preparing Humanity for the Age of Super Intelligence
Intelligence Explosion is a podcast that examines one of the most consequential shifts in human history: the emergence of machine intelligence and its growing entanglement with human cognition, autonomy, and power. This is not a podcast about gadgetry or surface-level trends. It is a deep dive into the evolving architecture of thought—natural and artificial—and the tectonic transformations it brings to our societies, politics, militaries, and moral codes.
Each episode features intimate, long-form conversations with some of the world’s most visionary thinkers, builders, and critics—from cognitive scientists and AI ethicists to military strategists, philosophers, and whistleblowers. We aim to explore the philosophical, strategic, and existential questions posed by the rise of synthetic minds.
Our Mission
Guiding Humanity Through the Intelligence Explosion
- Demystify complex ideas about cognition, machine learning, and intelligence systems.
- Bridge the gap between hard science, geopolitics, and moral philosophy.
- Illuminate the consequences of AI in warfare, surveillance, governance, and identity.
- Amplify global voices—not just from Silicon Valley, but from underrepresented regions wrestling with AI’s impacts.

About the Host
Tamim Asey is a former deputy minister of defense and war‑studies scholar. He’s the Founding Partner at IntelFusionLab and DDIShield, Chair of IWPS Afghanistan, and a Senior Visiting Fellow at DSD, King’s College. As the voice behind the Geopulse4G and IntelXplosion podcasts, he brings frontline experience, expert analysis, and top-tier access to every conversation.
Who This Podcast Is For
Whether you’re an AI researcher, a national security practitioner, a tech ethicist, or simply an intellectually curious listener, Intelligence Explosion invites you to explore:
- The limits of human cognition in an age of superintelligent systems
- The militarisation of algorithms and the logic of automated conflict
- The surveillance-industrial complex driven by predictive analytics
- The philosophical puzzles of machine sentience and agency
- The power struggles between digital empires and sovereign states
Why This Matters
This is not just a technical revolution—it’s a civilisational pivot. As AI grows more autonomous, and potentially more intelligent, the time to ask hard questions is now.
Intelligence Explosion is our forum to think aloud, critically, and collectively.
