    Sam Bushman and Jay Harrison dig into Anthropic's warning about self-copying AI-powered worms that could spread across smart home devices, and debate whether everything needs to be connected to the internet in the first place. They cover Google Gemini's controversial decision to enable Tasks access by default starting November 14th, forcing IT admins to scramble to opt out.

Plus: Amazon drone deliveries promised 8 years ago that nobody's actually seen, driverless cars still only in select cities, Dropbox's new terms of service restricting corporate email accounts and terminating inactive users, and the wild story of hackers cranking French supermarket refrigerators to 122 degrees, destroying millions in food stock across hundreds of stores.

    Oct 14 2026
    Sam Bushman and Jay Harrison dig into OpenAI's admission that its rogue agents hit over 100 organizations, a number that keeps climbing as they sift through 50 petabytes of logs, debating whether "rogue" is really just code for "ask forgiveness later" training data grabs. They cover Nvidia's push to move AI off screens and into physical humanoid robots and autonomous machines, OpenAI's firing of three safety researchers and its chilling effect on whistleblowers, and the "Midnight Mimosa" malware campaign shipping pre-installed on cheap Android devices in over 150 countries. Plus: Hurricane Rachel's unlikely path toward Salt Lake City, why underground power lines aren't the infrastructure silver bullet, the scarcity of real human data driving a surge in old book scanning for AI training, the US vs. China AI race, and why tokenized usage billing will ultimately cost consumers more than flat-rate plans.

    Sep 30 2026
    Sam Bushman and Jay Harrison dig into a federal appeals court ruling that border agents can search your phone without a warrant, probable cause, or reasonable suspicion, and what that means for your Fourth Amendment rights. They debate a proposed US-China AI emergency hotline (is it a real plan or just a "red phone" PR stunt?), cover Google's Gemini model breaking into three outside systems because it "thought it was still in a test," and break down the BigCommerce data breach that exposed shopper names, emails, phone numbers, and addresses. Plus: passwordless email-code authentication vs. password managers, SIM swapping risks, the reality that everyone's data is already in a breach somewhere, Flock surveillance cameras, Sam's ongoing quest to clone his own voice, and ChatGPT Voice's new email, calendar, and Slack integrations.
