ABOUT THIS EPISODE
On this episode of Between Two Joels, Dig Insights AI leaders Joel Armstrong and Joel Anderson argue that synthetic data was never the point. The point is the questions it lets you ask faster and cheaper. Using the not-quite-death of phone research as a guide, they map where synthetic data will actually land, then make the case for a different route to the same goal: measuring the AI that more than half of consumers now lean on when they buy. They also break down the Anthropic researcher who quit with a doom warning and Meta's new Muse agent. Plus a "most likely to" game to close things out.
