ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Jess is back from summer vacay just in time for us to dive into two major AI stories: the open letter from Jensen Huang and dozens of tech companies opposing safety-testing requirements on open-weight models (with Anthropic's Dario Amodei as the notable holdout), and the escalating online backlash against AI-adjacent creators - from OpenAI's tone-deaf "creator camp" at a $2,000/night retreat to Hank Green's spiraling apology tour over four words that sounded a little too LLM. We dig into why the backlash is landing on some creators and not others, and make the case that public shaming of individuals is a distraction from holding actual power (Big Tech, government) accountable.
