S3E1: Cosmology → AI | Two Physicists on AI Safety and Power

当两个剑桥大学的宇宙学博士开始思考AI的未来。英文后面是中文本集简介哦！“About 80% of my work is now orchestrating AI.”“We just sit back and hope the decisions are in our best interest...”Lindley and Will were Zoe’s PhD colleagues at the University of Cambridge, all working in cosmology and gravity. Years later, their paths diverged - Will remained in academia, researching theoretical physics, while Lindley moved into finance and then founded an AI startup focused on safety systems.In this conversation, they reflect on how AI is already reshaping the way we work, from coding to scientific research. What does it mean when AI can do most of your job? Can we trust AI systems in high-stakes environments like banking or science? And what are the real risks behind the often abstract term “AI safety”?They also explore deeper questions: Will academia survive in the age of AI? What happens when decision-making is increasingly delegated to machines? And how might global power structures shift as AI capabilities scale?Tune in for a wide-ranging discussion on AI, science, and the uncertain future ahead.P.S. apologies that I cannot pronounce Will’s name correctly… I have a problem with the “l” sound.从宇宙学到AI：听两位剑桥博士聊AI安全，以及它如何改变世界格局与未来“我大约80%的工作是在调度不同的AI。”“我们只能干坐着，指望那些决定是对我们有利的...”Lindley 和 Will 是 Zoe 在剑桥大学读博时的同学，都有宇宙学与引力研究背景。几年过去，他们走上了不同的道路——Will 继续留在学术界研究理论物理，而 Lindley 则从金融转向 AI 创业，专注于AI安全与控制系统的构建。在这期对话中，他们分享了AI如何正在改变工作的方式——从写代码到做科研。当AI已经能完成你大部分工作，这意味着什么？在银行或科学研究等高风险领域，我们真的可以信任AI吗？而“AI安全”背后，真正值得担心的风险又是什么？他们还进一步探讨了一些更深层的问题：AI时代下学术体系是否会被重塑？当决策逐渐交给机器，人类还剩下多少控制权？以及随着AI能力的扩展，全球权力格局又将如何变化？欢迎收听这场关于AI、科学与未来的深度对话。P.S. Will同学我对不住你，我不大能发出“l”的音节，尤其是在一个词的末尾……你可以点击这个链接查看本期节目的中英文对照文本。🎙️ Wondering Zoe Podcast如果你喜欢本期节目，欢迎留言或加入播客群（wx: runningzouzou），一起展开更多讨论！前往小宇宙评论区与主播互动

Chanti - 我有ADHD，我是英语恐怖小说作家英文之后就是中文播客简介啦！Hey there, folks! Welcome back to Wondering Zoe, where we get up close and personal with some seriously cool people. Today, we've got Chanti in the hot seat - a writer, event wizard, and all-around awesome human. She only found out about her ADHD later on, and the way she figured it out is downright hilarious! You've gotta hear this story! When chatting about her childhood, Chanti dropped this gem: "I was a total charmer as a kid, but let's be real, I was also a bit of a weirdo." She opened up about her ADHD journey from way back then till now. Back in the day, there was zilch support for neurodivergent students, and awareness? Forget about it! She had to navigate it all without much confidence in her abilities, no matter how awesome they were! It wasn't until Chanti stumbled into a creative writing course that her passion for storytelling truly ignited. Did Chanti jump straight into the writing gig after her college stint? Nope! Despite hitting up an arts college in the UK to fine-tune her writing chops, she had to hustle with a bunch of other jobs before she could really immerse herself in the writing world. Now, fast forward a bit, and Chanti's got some seriously killer novels under her belt - literally. She published Angel Manor (Lucifer Falls Book 1) and Doll Manor (Lucifer Falls Book 2) and other works. If you're into heart-pounding, edge-of-your-seat horror reads, Chanti's your gal. And hey, if you're itching to check out more of Chanti's work, head over to her website at www.chantalnoordeloos.com and prepare to be spooked! If Chanti's story hits close to home and you're on the lookout for a little extra support with your ADHD journey, I'm here to lend an ear. Shoot me a message at contact@wonderingzoe.com, and let's chat. Remember, you're not alone, and together, we've got this.

Music: "Eyes They're Closed" by Kaytsak宝子们！欢迎回到“Wondering Zoe”！在这里，我们将和一些超酷的人进行亲密接触。今天，我们有幸邀请到 Chanti，她是一位作家、活动组织达人，还是个全能型的超赞人物。你知道吗？她直到三十四岁才发现自己患有注意力不足过动障碍（ADHD），而她是怎么发现的简直太逗了！这个故事你一定得听听！在谈论她的童年时，Chanti 说了这么一段：“小时候我可是个万人迷，但老实说，我也有点怪。”她坦白了自己从小到大的 ADHD 之旅。那时候，对于神经多样性的学生，根本没有什么支持，也没人在意。她得在不太相信自己能力的情况下独自应对一切，无论她有多厉害！直到 Chanti 在高中时偶然参加了一门创意写作课程，她对讲故事的热情才真正被点燃。Chanti 在大学毕业后马上就开始了写作事业吗？哎呀，可没那么简单！尽管她在英国的艺术学院进修了创意写作，但在真正进入写作行业之前，她还得忙着打零工。现在，再快进一点，现在的Chanti 已经出版了一些超赞的小说——真的是超赞！她出版了《天使庄园》（路西法的坠落第1部）和《娃娃庄园》（路西法的坠落第2部）等作品。如果你喜欢心跳加速的恐怖读物，那么快去她的网站 www.chantalnoordeloos.com 看看吧，准备好被吓到哦！如果 Chanti 的故事让你有所触动，而你正在寻找一些额外的支持来应对你的 ADHD 旅程，不妨给我发个邮件，contact@wonderingzoe.com，咱们聊聊吧。记住，你不是一个人哦，我们一起加油！啊，对了，别忘了查看我的网站www.wonderingzoe.com，你会对我有更多的了解😄前往小宇宙评论区与主播互动

We also chat a bit about why people feel the need to pretend to listen attentively to others.This episode was recorded remotely - while I was in Madrid, Will was in Leiden. This is Season 2, Episode 3 of Wondering Zoe, the third episode of this season. In this season, I invited eight friends to talk about their complex relationships with ADHD.

S2E2: Martha - Now, go flourish

Martha - 我有一个ADHD妈妈，我从小就下定决心要和她不一样英文之后就是中文播客简介啦！This season, we’re talking about ADHD. If you don’t know much about ADHD, please check out the brief introduction at the end.Martha is a serial entrepreneur and executive/academic coach. Her coaching studio is called “Now Go Flourish.” She is a mother, and also a fitness, adventure, and spiritual enthusiast.Because her mother has ADHD, Martha felt lost and anxious during her childhood. From an early age, she decided she would not let life or ADHD push her around like her mother. Although Martha openly acknowledges that she is also on the ADHD spectrum, she might be the most organized person I know - her level of orderliness is truly astonishing.This made me think: if we could understand ourselves earlier, make a firm decision to live the life we want, and (relentlessly) find methods that suit us, maybe anyone could get closer to the life they want - still messy and uncertain at times, but with less self-blame and more confidence.This episode was recorded remotely - while I was in Paris, Martha was in the United States. This is Season 2, Episode 2 of Wondering Zoe, the second episode of this season. In this season, I invited eight friends to talk about their complex relationships with ADHD.If you’re interested in Martha’s coaching services, she offers a free 30-minute consultation（website）. You can book it via her website. (This is a voluntary mention - no money involved 😁)You are also welcome to contact me to be your ADHD coach (wonderingzoe.com), helping you understand your ADHD symptoms and find the best strategies for learning, work, relationships, and life.You are also welcome to share feedback on my podcast. Thank you!这一季我们聊ADHD。如果你对ADHD一点了解也没有，请看一下文末对ADHD的简单介绍。Martha，连续创业者，exective/acadmic coach，她的coach工作室叫“Now Go Flourish”。她是一位母亲，同时也是一位健身、冒险和灵性爱好者。因为母亲有ADHD，让Martha在童年时期惶恐无助，所以她从小就下定决心，不能像母亲一样，被生活、被ADHD推着走。尽管Martha坦诚自己也在ADHD的spectrum上，但是Martha可能是我认识的最有条理的人了——她有条理的程度简直让人诧异。这让我想到，如果能早一点了解自己，下定决心过上自己想要的生活，（拼了命地）努力找到适合自己的方法，是不是所有人都可以离自己想要的样子近一点，虽然也慌张，也messy，但是可以少一点自责，多一点自信。录制这期节目的时候，我在巴黎，她在美国，通过远程的方式完成了这次录制。这是Wondering Zoe的第2季，第2期，也是本季的第二集。在这一季里，我邀请了8位朋友谈一谈他们与ADHD爱恨情仇。如果你对Martha的教练服务感兴趣，她提供一个免费的30分钟咨询，预约只需访问她的网站。这是义务广告，没有收钱哒😁也欢迎你联系我做你的ADHD coach (wonderingzoe.com)，帮助你了解你的ADHD症状，找到最适合你的方式学习，工作，亲密关系与生活。也欢迎你给我的播客节目提意见。谢谢！Music: "Eyes They're Closed" by Kaytsak，授权使用前往小宇宙评论区与主播互动

S2E1: Claire - I felt like a vegan at a butcher shop

Sep 26, 202300:43:13Tap to summarize

Claire - ADHD让我过往的人生完全错位英文之后就是中文播客简介啦！This season, we’re talking about ADHD. If you don’t know much about ADHD, please check out the brief introduction at the end.I met Claire in an ADHD course - a truly special one. Most of the participants had struggled deeply with ADHD. Often, the teacher would barely begin the lesson before someone started crying, and then the teacher would join in (the teacher herself also has ADHD). It’s no exaggeration to say that every class began and ended in tears.ADHD symptoms are not always obvious during childhood and can vary widely from person to person. Many people who are diagnosed only in adulthood often feel “different” growing up, but can’t quite describe how. Before an ADHD diagnosis, many may first be diagnosed with other issues - such as depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, or social difficulties. However, these challenges often stem from ADHD itself. Without understanding its root causes, treatment may only address surface-level problems rather than the true core.Claire, today’s guest, discovered she had ADHD halfway through her life. The struggles that had followed her since she was four or five years old finally made sense, and she found a new sense of direction. Claire worked in the insurance industry for over twenty years, but the job never truly inspired her. Although she had tried to leave the field before, she always ended up coming back. This time, though, she is determined to pursue something more meaningful - helping others with ADHD understand themselves, face challenges, and find their own ways to live with more ease, less struggle, and more joy.Let’s listen to Claire’s story. The way she tells it is so moving - it brought tears to my eyes more than once.This episode was recorded remotely - while I was in Paris, Claire was in the UK. This is Season 2, Episode 1 of Wondering Zoe, the first episode of this season. In this season, I invited eight friends to share their love-hate relationship with ADHD.Music: “Eyes They’re Closed” by Kaytsak (licensed use)If you’d like an ADHD coach to help you understand your symptoms and find the best ways to learn, work, love, and live, you can visit my website: wonderingzoe.com.You’re also welcome to share your feedback on the podcast. Thank you!这一季我们聊ADHD。如果你对ADHD一点了解也没有，请看一下文末对ADHD的简单介绍。我是在一个ADHD的课程上遇到Claire的，这是一个很奇妙的课程，绝大多数人都是吃了很多ADHD的苦，经常老师课还没讲几分钟，同学就开始哭，然后老师也开始哭（老师本身是一个ADHDer）。不夸张的说，每一节课都是在哭声中开始，在哭声中结束。ADHD的症状可能在儿童时期并不总是明显，而且它的表现也因人而异。成年后才确诊ADHD的人，在成长的过程中可能经常会有“我好像和别人不大一样”的感觉，但是很多时候描述不出来到底哪里不一样。在ADHD确诊之前，很多人可能会被诊断出其他问题，例如抑郁、焦虑、自尊心问题以及社交困难。然而，这些问题的根源实际上可能源自ADHD。如果个体不了解ADHD的根本原因，治疗往往只是应对这些相对表面的问题，而无法解决其真正的核心问题。这一集的嘉宾Claire就是在活了半辈子之后才发现，自己原来有ADHD，那些从四五岁就困扰着她的问题终于有了答案，自己的人生似乎有了新的方向。Claire在保险业工作了二十多年，但这个职业从未真正吸引她，尽管她曾试图离开，但最终还是回到了原点。但是这一次，她坚定了自己的想法，她想要帮助那些和她一样的ADHDer，帮助他们了解ADHD，找到适合自己的方法去面对自我，面对挑战，让他们少吃一点苦，多享受到些人生的乐趣。让我们来听听Claire的故事吧。她讲的太有感染力，让我湿了好几次眼眶。录制这期节目的时候，我在巴黎，她在英国，通过远程的方式完成了这次录制。这是Wondering Zoe的第2季，第1期，也是本季的第一集。在这一季里，我邀请了8位朋友谈一谈他们与ADHD爱恨情仇。Music: "Eyes They're Closed" by Kaytsak，授权使用如果你需要ADHD coach，帮助你了解你的ADHD症状，找到最适合你的方式学习，工作，恋爱与生活，可以查看我的ADHD coach网站wonderingzoe.com.也欢迎你给我的播客节目提意见。谢谢！前往小宇宙评论区与主播互动

Together with her husband, she has moved from Israel to Japan, then to the United States, back to Israel, and most recently, to the Netherlands.In Japan, she experienced quite the culture shock - she learned that when Japanese people say “maybe,” they actually mean “no,” which completely stunned her straightforward Israeli mind. She also shared her experience of giving birth to her first child in Japan.Later, in the United States, while her husband’s career was thriving, Avi faced her own challenges - after a full year of job hunting without success, she finally managed to make a career transition through sheer persistence. Looking back, she now sees these experiences not as sacrifices, but as opportunities for her and her family to grow together.This episode was recorded remotely - while I was in the UK, Avi was in the Netherlands.
