Summary

OpenAI is shutting down Sora and pivoting its entire enterprise strategy to compete with Anthropic — and that's just one move in a week that also saw Apple replace Siri with Google Gemini, the federal government release its first AI safety framework, and Meta and YouTube lose jury trials over addictive algorithm lawsuits. Key topics covered: OpenAI kills Sora and exits adult AI companion features, refocusing on enterprise to chase Anthropic Apple makes deal to power Siri with Google Gemini — what to actually expect Federal AI safety framework: first real steps toward national regulation Meta and YouTube sued over addictive algorithms — why this could crack open massive legal exposure Jason's live experiment: giving Claude Code a $100 Walmart card and control of the AGI Podcast's social channels to see if an AI agent can monetize a podcast Why agentic AI tools are worth watching but not worth rushing into yet (and what to do instead) The real risk of anthropomorphizing AI — "soul docs," companion apps, and what it's doing to young people Julie teaches Walla's AI 101 class for retirees and gets some great nonprofit board questions Melania's classroom robot rollout and why it's getting ahead of where the technology actually is Watch recommendation: "The Thinking Game" — the Demis Hassabis and AlphaGo documentary Bottom line: A lot moved this week, but the most practical story is a simple question: can an AI agent actually run a podcast and make money from it? Jason's testing that in real time.
