This week on our show, the hosts start with the geopolitical AI race, highlighted by top scientist Song-Chun Zhu's move to China. They then cover Google's release of VaultGemma, its first privacy-preserving LLM, and an ethics brief warning of growing ties between tech and the military. The hosts look at user behavior, with an OpenAI study showing most people use ChatGPT for practical tasks. Shifting to enterprise news, Google has released a policy guide for governments, Amazon has launched an AI agent for its sellers, and AI startups are fueling Google Cloud's growth. The discussion then turns to public opinion, with a new survey finding that Americans want AI to stay out of their personal lives. Following that, the hosts cover new hardware from Meta's Connect 2025 event, which focused on AI glasses as the key to personal superintelligence. They conclude with a look at the future, as experts at an MIT symposium predict a shift from LLMs to autonomously learning "world models". Hosted on Acast.
