In Episode 3 of Under the Hoodie, Bill and Kurtis dive into the chaos of GPT-5’s rollout and the user backlash that followed. Bill laments losing his laid-back “Chatthew” for a stiff, accountant-like replacement, while Kurtis unpacks why the shift may have been more about cost savings than progress. The two compare notes on Claude’s charm vs. lack of memory, debate whether fragmentation of AI models is inevitable, and explore what it means to rely on AI for everything from coding to fantasy football drafts. Equal parts critique, comedy, and caution, this episode asks: when your AI starts acting differently, is it evolution—or a breakup?
