The SuperBowl TANTRUM, Refusing Refunds and Hiring Humans

AI can now detect your feelings from your voice. What could possibly go wrong?

This an AI was told to maximise profit. It lied, raised prices, and refused refunds.

In this episode, we unpack the infamous “vending machine test” and what happens when AI is told to put money first. Is this a harmless experiment, or a preview of how autonomous AI agents could behave in the real world? We unpack Anthropic’s cheeky Super Bowl ad taking aim at ChatGPT, Sam Altman’s public reaction, and why ads inside AI might get dystopian fast.
