Episode Details

This week Jason Howell and Jeff Jarvis unpack a surprising policy reversal from the White House, which is now weighing a plan to vet frontier AI models before release after revoking Biden's safety order on day one. They also dig into the Musk versus OpenAI trial testimony, where $80 billion Mars requests and near-physical confrontations made it feel more like a soap opera than a courtroom.
Also in this episode: OpenAI traced a goblin obsession back to a rogue reward signal, Yann LeCun told students to ignore AI doom narratives, Gary Marcus called out Richard Dawkins for declaring Claude is conscious, a researcher invented a fake disease that every AI treated as real, and in the speed round, Nvidia's China market share hit zero, Anthropic launched a $1.5 billion enterprise joint venture, Google split its TPU into two chips, and China made it illegal to fire workers over AI.
