System Crash

OpenAI’s Massive Funding Round and Equally Massive Insult to Artists


Listen Later

After a few weeks of digging into Elon Musk’s past, Brian and Paris are taking a little break to dig into recent tech developments. They discuss the troubles facing Tesla, OpenAI’s new funding round, and the despicable display of AI-generated Studio Ghibli images circulating on social media. Plus, they discuss some important labor stories and how Google’s AI Overviews are hurting website traffic.

Brian mentioned an article called “AI: The New Aesthetics of Fascism.”
