EP010: Electrons to Atoms

For nine episodes, AI lived in software — and when it was wrong, a human stood between the output and the world. This episode is about the moment the human steps out from between. A robot boat rescues two downed pilots in the Strait of Hormuz. A $900 hobby drone disarms a man with a magnet. An AI catches the cancer every human missed. The same question, asked five times: who was standing between the machine and the world? Physical AI is not coming — it's here. The fork it creates runs through every job, every farm, every kid picking a major this fall: step out, or step up. Electrons became atoms. And atoms don't have an undo button.
