OpenAI launches ChatGPT Health and healthcare push

On Friday’s show, the DAS crew shifted away from Claude Code and focused on how AI interfaces and ecosystems are changing in practice. The conversation opened with post CES reflections, including why the event felt underwhelming to many despite major infrastructure announcements from Nvidia. From there, the discussion moved into voice first AI workflows, how tools like Whisperflow and Monologue are changing daily interaction habits, and whether constant voice interaction reinforces or fixes human work patterns. The second half of the show covered a wide range of news, including ChatGPT Health and OpenAI’s healthcare push, Google’s expanding Gemini integrations, LM Arena’s business model, Sakana’s latest recursive evolution research, and emerging debates around decision traces, intuition, and the limits of agent autonomy inside organizations.

Key Points Discussed

CES felt lighter on visible AI products, but infrastructure advances still matter

Nvidia’s Rubin architecture reinforces where real AI leverage is happening
