Episode notes
Waymo Ticket Dilemma
- Nick rode in a Waymo robotaxi that was cited by a police officer but the officer could not fill a ticket because there was no human driver to name.
- Jack and Nick debate whether the company, engineers, CEO, or the robot itself should be held responsible for autonomous vehicle violations.
Sora Hits Number One
- OpenAI launched Sora, a standalone app that creates AI videos and puts users as stars in blockbuster-style clips.
- The app reached number one in the App Store despite being invite-only because it taps into video-first social behavior and instant creative gratification.
Minimal Inputs, Massive Compute
- Sora requires only three numbers, a selfie, and a side profile to generate photorealistic AI videos, making creation almost instantaneous.
- The app is extremely compute intensive, so OpenAI limits users to control server load and energy usage.
