Episode Details

AI is not “coming” to your job, it is already sitting in your inbox. We’re back on the mic with Episode 84 of the Tech Hustle Podcast, and we start with the stuff that tells the truth about the market: massive layoffs, flashy acquisitions, and hardware experiments that flame out when real users will not pay the bill.

First up, D Hustle breaks down two tech stories that feel like a preview of the next decade. Ben Affleck reportedly sells an AI film post-production company to Netflix for almost $600 million, a reminder that AI tools are turning weeks of editing and VFX cleanup into days. Then we react to Samsung discontinuing the Galaxy Z Trifold after durability issues and rising costs, plus what foldable phones mean if Apple enters the game while Samsung still gets paid as a supplier.

Raymond brings a tough real-world debate about responsibility when a teen driving mistake turns fatal and the parent ends up doing serious time. From there we lighten it up with a genuinely useful find, WornOnTV.net, for anyone who wants to track down clothes and accessories seen on TV. Then Bobby D goes deep on Jules, an AI agent built with tools like OpenClaw that can handle email, tickets, calendars, and other daily “computer work” through messaging apps like WhatsApp and iMessage. We talk workplace AI adoption, private internal models, and the uncomfortable policy question nobody wants to answer: if AI replaces workers, how does society replace the tax base?

If you’re building, hiring, or just trying to stay employed, this one is for you. Subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a review, then tell us what part of your workday you’d trust an AI agent to run.
