The Big Lie Behind AI Automation


Listen Later

Anthropic’s 30-hour AI automation claim is collapsing under scrutiny — we tested Claude 4.5 vs GPT-5 and exposed where AI truly fails.
Without human feedback, it crashes around our “10-Minute Autonomy Rule.” Hunter Powers and Daniel Bishop dismantle the biggest AI automation myth of 2025—why the machines still need us.

They decode Claude 4.5’s hype, pit it against GPT-5, and rip into Meta’s humanoid robot ambitions. It’s funny, fast, and fearless: exactly how tech talk should be.
