This episode is sponsored by Airia. Get started today at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠airia.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. Jason Howell and Jeff Jarvis break down Claude Opus 4.6's new role as a financial‑research engine, discuss how GPT‑5.3 Codex is reshaping full‑stack coding workflows, and explore Matt Shumer's warning that AI agents will touch nearly every job in just a few years. We unpack how Super Bowl AI ads are reframing public perception, examine Waymo's use of DeepMind's Genie 3 world model to train autonomous vehicles on rare edge‑case scenarios, and also cover OpenAI's ad‑baked free ChatGPT tiers, HBR's findings on how AI expands workloads instead of lightening them, and new evidence that AI mislabels medical conditions in real‑world settings.

This episode is sponsored by Airia. Get started today at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠airia.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. Jason Howell and Jeff Jarvis break down the rise of Moltbook, the social network for AI agents, and how it claims to let 1.5 million bots argue, joke, and organize like humans. We explore what it means when almost all of those agents are actually human‑driven proxies, and whether this is a playful experiment or a worrying blueprint for AI‑driven behavior at scale. We also question why anyone would need a social network just for AI agents, and what security and privacy risks OpenClaw‑style tools introduce when combined with an engagement‑driven platform that rewards risky actions.
