Podcasts about Anthropic

The White House debates going to extreme lengths to get the American public to stomach a war with Iran, while Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth tries to force Anthropic into letting him use their AI model to operate autonomous murder drones. Jon and Dan react with horror and then discuss the rest of the news, including the administration's new fraud-focused message, the draft executive order that the administration may use to declare a national emergency before the midterms, and a new report that Trump's Justice Department removed some documents from the Epstein files that accused the President of sexually abusing a minor. Then, Tommy talks to an organizer in Arizona about Vote Save America's effort to recruit people like you to run in down-ballot races in the Grand Canyon State and all over the country.

The BP squad looks at Zohran and Trump's new meeting at the White House, Jack Dorsey's company firing 40% of its staff due to AI, Anthropic's continued back and forth battle with the Pentagon over surveillance and AI drone swarms, and Ryan uncovers a document from the Kat Abughazaleh campaign for congress in Chicago with some surprising Foreign Policy statements.

This week, the economist Anton Korinek joins to break down how artificial intelligence is driving volatility in the job and stock markets. Then, the battle between the Pentagon and Anthropic is getting even more tense. Anthropic now has until 5:01 p.m. Eastern time on Friday to accept the military's demands over the terms of a contract, or the Trump administration will retaliate by invoking the Defense Production Act and designating the company a “supply chain risk.” We discuss this change, as well as two other updates on OpenClaw and Alpha Schools.

Anthropic accuses Chinese AI labs of “industrial scale” distillation attacks on its Claude models, and the panel breaks down allegations involving DeepSeek, Moonshot, and MiniMax, 24,000 fraudulent accounts, and 16 million exchanges, as they debate intellectual property theft, Nvidia chip export controls, and whether AI competition with China is now a full-blown national security battle.

Today's Headlines: Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton testified before the House Oversight Committee in the first of two days of Epstein-related depositions involving the Clintons. The closed-door hearing was briefly paused after Rep. Lauren Boebert leaked a photo of Clinton testifying to right-wing podcaster Benny Johnson, who posted it online. Clinton later told reporters she “did not know Jeffrey Epstein” and criticized the committee for not calling individuals more prominently named in Epstein files. She also said lawmakers repeatedly questioned her about UFOs and “Pizzagate.” Meanwhile, U.S.–Iran nuclear talks resumed in Geneva, with officials describing discussions as “positive,” even as concerns linger about potential military escalation. In New York, Columbia University student Elmina Aghayeva was detained by ICE agents inside her campus housing after agents reportedly misrepresented themselves to gain entry. She was later released following intervention by NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani, who was meeting with Donald Trump at the White House regarding housing investment proposals. Vice President JD Vance announced a pause on $259 million in Medicaid funding allocated to Minnesota, signaling potential broader funding freezes. In Kansas, the Republican-controlled legislature overrode Gov. Laura Kelly's veto to enact a law invalidating updated gender markers on driver's licenses and birth certificates for transgender residents. In media and tech, Netflix withdrew its bid to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery, clearing the way for Paramount's higher offer. AI company Anthropic announced it is dropping its 2023 voluntary safety pledge amid competitive pressure. More than 1,800 companies have filed lawsuits seeking refunds for Trump-era tariffs ruled illegal, totaling roughly $130 billion. Finally, Trump also invoked the Defense Production Act to boost domestic production of glyphosate, the active ingredient in Roundup, despite ongoing litigation linking the herbicide to cancer, and a new military readiness report additionally calls for major Pentagon reforms in cybersecurity, procurement, and tech modernization.

They break down the Supreme Court striking Trump's tariffs, Trump immediately finding new legal doors to bring them back, and the looming $150B+ refund fight.

This week, Joe Pulizzi and Robert Rose tackle one of the boldest statements in recent marketing memory. The CEO of Unilever says big brand advertising is dead. Is he right? Or is this a Trojan horse for something much bigger? Big Brand Advertising: Dead or Disguised? When the head of one of the largest consumer goods companies in the world questions traditional brand advertising, it's not a throwaway comment. Joe and Robert unpack what's really happening: Are we witnessing the collapse of mass brand-building? Or is this a pivot toward creator-led, performance-driven, and retail media strategies? Is "brand is dead" just cover for short-term earnings pressure?     Facebook's Creator Monetization Shift Next, the hosts examine Facebook and its evolving creator monetization programs. Here's the surprising part: most of the creators earning real money aren't in the U.S. or Europe. What does that signal? Is Facebook optimizing for lower-cost content markets? Is this about global growth or cheaper engagement? Does this open the door to more synthetic and AI-generated content? Joe and Robert debate what this means for marketers investing in creator partnerships and for Western creators assuming they're at the center of platform economics. AI Actors, Hollywood, and Trademarking Yourself A fascinating conversation between Matthew McConaughey and Timothée Chalamet sparks a larger discussion: what happens when AI enters the craft of acting? Will we eventually see: Best AI Actor? Best Synthetic Film? Or entirely new creative categories? Joe raises a bigger issue for marketers and creators: should you trademark your name, image, and likeness? As AI-generated replicas improve, protecting your identity may become a business necessity rather than a vanity move. Winners and Losers Winner: The Creator Betting on Landline Phones Joe highlights a surprising trend: a creator sells old-school landline phones. Marketing Loser: U.S. Men's Hockey Robert explains why the United States men's national ice hockey team earns this week's marketing "L." Brand positioning, expectations, and execution all come under scrutiny. Rants, Raves, and Heated Debate Robert dives deep into Anthropic and its recent moves around AI safety. Is the company quietly shifting away from its core safety mission? Then things get heated. Joe and Robert spar over an article by Matt Shumer on the future of AI. Is exponential acceleration inevitable? Are we underestimating the timeline? Or overhyping the disruption?

This week, Emily Bazelon, John Dickerson, and David Plotz discuss whether Trump's State of the Union address effectively convinced voters to ignore the pain in their wallets because he says he's “winning” the economy, how the Supreme Court finally stood up to the president on something he really cares about, and the Pentagon's ominous ultimatum against AI company Anthropic.For this week's Slate Plus bonus episode, Emily, John, and David discuss James Talarico, Jasmine Crockett, and what might happen in next week's consequential Texas Senate primary races. In the latest Gabfest Reads, John Dickerson talks with Father James Martin about his new book, Work in Progress: Confessions of a Busboy, Dishwasher, Caddy, Usher, Factory Worker, Bank Teller, Corporate Tool, and Priest. They discuss the spiritual lessons learned through eight different jobs, Martin's controversial LGBTQ ministry that made him a target of criticism within the Catholic Church, and what the Gospels demand about welcoming strangers and caring for the marginalized.

Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta break down the Pentagon's escalating showdown with Anthropic, as the Pentagon threatens to cut ties or invoke the Defense Production Act while new war-game research from King's College London shows models from OpenAI, Google, and others recommending nuclear use far more often than humans, alongside a viral video of Sam Altman. They analyze Donald Trump's State of the Union theatrics on the economy and culture wars, the “two-tier economy” warning from McDonald's's CEO, his use of the gallery for viral moments on immigration and trans issues, and stark rhetoric from Mike Johnson. Kander and Gupta also dive into the Epstein files, with NPR reporting missing Trump documents, arrests in the U.K. of Prince Andrew and Peter Mandelson, and renewed questions about why there's no U.S. accountability. Plus, they discuss the tariff decision and the fallout from attacks on the Supreme Court, including warnings from National Review's Andrew McCarthy, an ICE training whistleblower, flight delays tied to Kash Patel that Dick Durbin says hampered the FBI, a youth surge for James Fishback in Florida, and House leadership refusing to call on Tony Gonzales to resign.

This week, Emily Bazelon, John Dickerson, and David Plotz discuss whether Trump's State of the Union address effectively convinced voters to ignore the pain in their wallets because he says he's “winning” the economy, how the Supreme Court finally stood up to the president on something he really cares about, and the Pentagon's ominous ultimatum against AI company Anthropic.For this week's Slate Plus bonus episode, Emily, John, and David discuss James Talarico, Jasmine Crockett, and what might happen in next week's consequential Texas Senate primary races. In the latest Gabfest Reads, John Dickerson talks with Father James Martin about his new book, Work in Progress: Confessions of a Busboy, Dishwasher, Caddy, Usher, Factory Worker, Bank Teller, Corporate Tool, and Priest.

President Trump’s nominee to be the next surgeon general appeared before the Senate health committee. NBC News’s Aria Bendix breaks down the testimony. The Pentagon is at odds with Anthropic, the company that built the only AI model approved for classified military use. Dave Lawler of Axios joins to discuss the ultimatum Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth issued the company. A whistleblower who recently trained ICE recruits testified to Congress about how the agency is cutting corners on instruction. The Washington Post’s David Nakamura explains why concerns are rising over how fast some agents are being put into the field. Plus, officials in Cuba said its coast guard killed four people on a Florida-registered speedboat, economist Larry Summers is stepping down as a Harvard professor over his connections to Jeffrey Epstein, and how Rolex created one of the hardest schools to get into. Today’s episode was hosted by Cecilia Lei.

Austin Berg (Chicago Policy Center) and Andrew Egger (The Bulwark) join Mike to dissect Trump's marathon State of the Union: was it a missed opportunity to reach the median voter, or a "clip farming" masterclass? They also unpack the awkwardly timed Supreme Court tariff ruling that derailed his economic pitch, and the high-stakes standoff between the Pentagon and AI giant Anthropic over autonomous weapons. Finally, Goat Grinders tackles the agony of vinyl record tariffs, the performative scourge of handheld lavalier mics, and how Twitter ruins the Winter Olympics.

Today's Headlines: Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton are set to testify before the House Oversight Committee today — with lawmakers traveling to their home in Chappaqua for the interviews. Meanwhile, after reporting revealed the DOJ appears to have withheld Epstein documents referencing past allegations involving Donald Trump, the Justice Department now says it's “looking into” whether anything was improperly held back.  Adding to the Epstein pile, The Telegraph reports a previously overlooked Jeffrey Epstein storage unit packed with computers, VHS tapes, address books, and alleged “training manuals.” Authorities reportedly missed it during earlier searches. Consequences, however, remain selective. A former Harvard president resigned his remaining university roles and an OpenAI board seat amid Epstein scrutiny. Bill Gates, at a Gates Foundation town hall, acknowledged past affairs that Epstein later became aware of but said he “did nothing illicit” and saw nothing illicit. At the FBI, Director Kash Patel reportedly fired at least 10 agents tied to the Jack Smith classified documents investigation after learning subpoenas had included his own communications and those of White House chief of staff Susie Wiles. In other news, Trump's surgeon general nominee, wellness influencer Casey Means, declined at her confirmation hearing to firmly reject a link between vaccines and autism and would not explicitly urge Americans to get vaccinated. “Science is never settled,” she said. That's one way to approach public health. On the corporate-national-security beat, the Pentagon is weighing whether to designate AI company Anthropic as a potential “supply chain risk” after friction with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. The label could jeopardize federal contracts — a category tech companies tend to enjoy keeping. Media merger drama continues as Paramount's David Ellison sweetened his bid for Warner Bros. Discovery, potentially complicating Netflix's existing deal. And in quieter political news, Democrats flipped or held three state House special elections — one in Maine and two in Pennsylvania — expanding their Pennsylvania majority to 102–98, with one race outperforming 2024 margins by 34 points. There are three more Republican-held seats up next.
