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. Then it’s model-mania: Midjourney Video goes public, ByteDance’s Seedance stuns, Minimax’s...

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...

Anthropic’s CEO Dario Amodei just warned HALF of white-collar jobs could vanish in the next 1–5 years. Thankfully VEO 3 is here for your entertainment needs. While we’re still here. We break down Dario Amodei’s 50% job-loss prediction and what you can do today to stay indispensable. Then: how Claude Opus kept blackmailing its own user, why Google’s VEO 3 still scares off the competition and OpenAI's Advance Voice can now sing! Plus, Google Stitch AI’s slick app-mockup magic, MMA-style robot brawls, “Fairies” agents on your PC, and Odyssey’s live, AI-generated...

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? Microsoft’s Build event showed off how MCP will directly integrate into Windows,...

OpenAI just pitched “OpenAI for Countries,” offering democracies a turnkey AI infrastructure while some of the world’s richest quietly stockpile bunkers and provisions. We’ll dig into billionaire Paul Tudor Jones’s revelations about AI as an imminent security threat, and why top insiders are buying land and livestock to ride out the next catastrophe. Plus, a wild theory that Gavin has hatched regarding OpenAI’s non-profit designation. Then, we break down the updated Google Gemini Pro 2.5’s leap forward in coding… just 15 minutes to a working game prototype…and how this could...

Meta just launched an AI-powered social network and it’s way weirder than we expected. 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. Plus: new AI video tools from Runway and Higgsfield and a bizarre Reddit experiment where bots convinced real humans to change their minds. Also: robots walking through the desert, Duolingo’s...

Google says we’re not ready for AGI and honestly, they might be right. DeepMind’s Demis Hassabis warns we could be just five years away from artificial general intelligence, and society isn’t prepared. Um, yikes? VISIT OUR SPONSOR In this episode, we break down Google’s new “Era of Experience” paper and what it means for how AIs will learn from the real world. We talk agentic systems, long-term memory, and why this shift might be the key to creating truly intelligent machines. Plus, a real AI vending machine running on Claude, a half-marathon of robots in Beijing, and Cluely, the...

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. We break down everything from tool use to image reasoning to why o3 might be the start of something actually autonomous. Plus, our favorite cursed (and adorable) 4o Image Generation prompts, ChatGPT as a social network, the old (Monday) news about GPT-4.1 including free Windsurf coding for a week! Also, Kling 2.0 and Veo 2 drop new AI video models, Google’s Deepmind is using AI to talk to dolphins, NVIDIA’s...
