AI hasn't caused mass unemployment. Yet. 😳 Although Anthropic's new study on the labor market impacts of AI showed no real signs of massive job disruption in jobs exposed to AI, it did outline which sectors and job types might be first on the AI automation chopping block.  On today's show, we'll not only break that down, but also dive deeper into a more immediately impactful j...

While Anthropic and the Pentagon fought, OpenAI swooped in to secure a big deal.  But at what cost?  And while it seemed like the entire AI news world was wrapped up in the Anthropic-Trump-OpenAI drama, the rest of big tech went nuts.  Microsoft teased something agentic, Claude actually shipped it, and Perplexity dropped probably its most important product to date.  This week’s theme apparently: d...

Is OpenAI now the most ..... Open AI company? 🦞 After acquihiring OpenClaw, OpenAI is doubling down on Open Source and just kinda scooped up Anthropic's fumble for a (seemingly) easy score.  And that wasn't Anthropic's only slip up of the week, as the bad AI news piled up for the Claude maker.  And Google?  Silently shipped the world's (new) most powerful model.  Did you miss...
