Would you trust a synthetic version of yourself to teach your audience? One CEO just did, and it’s raising questions about authenticity, attention, and the future of thought leadership.
In this week’s episode, Paul and Mike examine OpenAI’s billion-dollar power plays, the deeper implications of its “People First AI Fund,” and why Microsoft, Oracle, and OpenAI might be creating value out of thin air. They also analyze Replit’s Agent 3, a next-gen AI dev tool claiming 10x more autonomy, and why it may hint at what’s coming across industries. Plus, stay tuned for commentary on AI’s impact on jobs, the economy, and a controversial AI Podcast startup.
