Listen Later

This time, host Magnus Oxenwaldt examines a recent UC Berkeley study that links heavy AI use to rising burnout, as saved time quickly turns into more work. 


A familiar pattern is emerging across industries. Many firms are reducing headcount based on expected AI gains. OpenAI has introduced ads in ChatGPT's free tier. A global safety report calls for layered controls as vendor safety teams shift. The tools work. The real question is how we use them. 


Highlights for week 8: 

  • Heavy AI use increases speed but also raises the risk of burnout. 
  • Workforce cuts are being made based on expected, not yet proven, AI gains. 
  • Ad-supported AI models introduce new incentive questions for enterprises. 
  • Safety experts call for layered controls as vendor teams evolve.
