GPT Psychosis is spreading, the NYT is Super-Doxxing Zuck, and Trump is wetting his beak on Chinese chip exports | E2163
Today’s show:
On an all-new Monday TWiST, Lon joins Jason and Alex to talk about a whole bunch of stories at the intersection of tech, business, and pop culture.
First up, is GPT Psychosis real? And if so, what are the warning signs that your loved ones have been ONESHOTTED.
Then, why did Jason get so upset at the NY Times piece about Mark Zuckerberg’s Palo Alto compound?
PLUS we’re discussing Trump’s export fees on AMD and Nvidia, Jason’s pitch for why the president should work more closely with Congress, a new tool in the search for rare-earth minerals, just how many self-driving trucks are on Chinese roads today, and much much more!
