AI For Humans: Making Artificial Intelligence Fun & Practical
OpenAI’s Sam Altman is doing a full blown AI media tour and taking no prisoners. GPT-5! Humanoid robotics! Smack talk! The next generation of AI is…maybe almost here? We unpack Altman’s brand-new in-house podcast (and his brother’s), confirm the “likely-this-summer” GPT-5 timeline and reveal why Meta is dangling $100 million signing bonuses at OpenAI staff. Plus: the freshly launched “OpenAI Files” site, Altman’s latest shot at Elon, and what’s real versus propaganda.

OpenAI’s Sam Altman drops o3-Pro & sees “The Gentle Singularity”, Ilya Sutskever prepares for super intelligence & Mark Zuckerberg is spending MEGA bucks on AI talent. WHAT GIVES? All of the major AI companies are not only preparing for AGI but for true “super intelligence” which is on the way, at least according to *them*. What does that mean for us? And how do we exactly prepare for it? Also, Apple’s WWDC is a big AI letdown, Eleven Labs’ new V3 model is AMAZING, Midjourney got sued and, oh yeah, those weird 1X Robotics androids are back and running through grassy...

VEO 3, Gemini Diffusion, Android AR Glasses & so much more… Google went HAM on the AI space this week at Google I/O. Plus, Sam Altman spends 6.5B on AI wearables & Jony Ive. After last year’s semi-lackluster I/O event, this year Google rolled out Sergei Brin & Demis Hassabis and a whole lot of new product. We go deep on all of it but especially VEO3. Gavin bought the enormously expensive Google AI Ultra plan to tell you how it works. Plus, Anthropic’s Claude 4 is rumored to come out… today?

From voice assistants with emotional baggage to remixable AI selfies, we test Meta’s new AI app and talk about what it really means for the future of AI interfaces. VISIT OUR SPONSOR: We also break down OpenAI’s GlazeGate, the update that made ChatGPT way too sycophantic, and why Sam Altman had to roll it back.

Google says we’re not ready for AGI and honestly, they might be right.

OpenAI’s o3 and o4-mini are here—and they’re multimodal, cheaper, and scary good. These models can see, code, plan, and use tools all on their own. Yeah. It’s a big deal.
