Jobs Cool, Food Bites, Sora 2 Drops & AI’s Power Problem 💡⚡
The U.S. job market is cooling fast, grocery bills are skyrocketing, and OpenAI just dropped a viral AI video tool that’s stirring legal and ethical firestorms. Meanwhile, behind the scenes, AI's ravenous appetite for power threatens our energy grid—and your wallet. This episode unpacks what you need to know NOW.
🎯 What You’ll Learn:
* Why September saw the largest private-sector job drop in two years, with layoffs near 1M and 2025 hiring plans down 58%.
* How grocery prices are ~30% higher than 2020—and why the affordability crunch is structural, not temporary.
* What Sora 2 can do, and why its “opt-out” copyright approach is igniting legal fights and creator pushback.
* How OpenAI’s Nvidia + AMD deals (up to 6 GW chips by 2026) deepen the AI infrastructure race.
* Why utilities see AI as a 30x power demand shock by 2035—and the grid, permitting, and transmission hurdles ahead.
