Max and AI expert Amara Kline break down Anthropic’s Petri safety tool and its odd “whistleblowing” false positives, OpenAI’s takedowns of surveillance-linked accounts and multi-model abuse, OpenAI Sora’s new consent and style controls, ChatGPT crossing 800 million weekly users and the shift to agents, a striking year-over-year leap in coding-model reliability, Deloitte’s enterprise-scale Claude rollout contrasted with a hallucination-fueled refund, a plain-English tour of a new Fisher threshold theorem for when learning fails at finite samples, and Jeff Bezos’s provocative idea of space-based AI data centers. Practical guardrails, governance, and grounded optimism throughout.
