Venture capitalist&amp;nbsp;Peter Fenton joins evolutionary biologist David Sloan Wilson for a wide-ranging conversation about how evolution and artificial intelligence might shape each other. Fenton, a central figure in the AI startup world and a lifelong student of philosophy, brings a unique lens to technology. Together, they explore how the principles of variation, selection, and replication—the core of evolutionary theory—can guide AI’s growth toward cooperation and cultural progress rather than self-destruction. The discussion moves from Fenton’s personal journey to a larger argument: understanding evolution isn’t just for biology anymore—it’s essential for building the future.
