Episode notes

OpenAI, Meta & Google are fighting over who gets to control the future of superintelligence but what happens when Zuck robs Sam Altman blind? And is Apple about to onboard Anthropic?

In the big AI news this week, Meta hires over 10 top OpenAI engineers (for a rumored potential $300 million in compensation), Apple considers replacing its entire AI strategy with Claude or ChatGPT, and Microsoft’s new medical model diagnoses diseases 4x better than human doctors.

Also: Korea’s first AI-animated show, Tesla’s Optimus robot hits a setback, Google Voice pushes a new update and yes, there's a cowboy robot rizzing people on the street of Austin.
