This week, Odd Lots explored how systems—whether technological, financial, or cultural—can spiral in unexpected directions. From AI safety risks to France's fiscal unraveling to a blockchain platform's bid to reshape finance, the episodes traced moments where small decisions or overlooked ideas accumulate into major consequences. David Byrne's conversation on cultural memory rounded out the week's inquiry into how the forgotten and the urgent can resurface to reshape our present.
