Show Notes
This week, Tristan and Tasia look at the open letter from several former OpenAI employees (and others) warning of the existential threat of AI and demanding whistleblower protection. Then we discuss various new generative AI tools and developments that are simultaneously making us more productive and the Web more terrible. Join us as we wade through AI failures, AI doom, AI porn, and AI slop to reach the shores of AI disappointment.
