For the first time ever, nearly half of Americans now use AI chatbots, and most of them are worried about it. Brands are secretly deploying fake AI influencers to sell you things. And the CEOs of the world's biggest AI companies just got seats at the G7 next to actual heads of state. This week, we connect the dots from your phone to the world stage, and Dave teaches Olivia everything she needs to know about Huupe, the AI basketball hoop that tracks your shot like an NBA statistician.

In this episode of Prompt Response, we explore why Anthropic’s latest AI model became a national security concern, how McDonald’s is bringing AI to the drive-thru, why deepfakes are creating a growing crisis of trust online and the backlash facing Martin Scorsese over AI’s role in filmmaking. Plus, we cover NotebookLM as our tool of the week.

In our very first episode of Prompt Response, we explore how AI is rapidly expanding beyond tech and into every corner of society. We discuss Anthropic’s plans to go public, why universities are rethinking education in the age of ChatGPT, and the debut of an AI-generated film at the Tribeca Film Festival. Plus, we take a look at Claude’s new “Cowork” feature and what it means for the future of AI agents that can actually complete tasks on your behalf.
