Are AI models quietly getting worse after they launch?
Sara and Becca dig into Live Nerf, a project trying to replace the “this model suddenly feels dumber” discourse with actual measurements. Then: a new technique for making sense of an LLM’s hidden reasoning, an AI math tutor that deliberately gets answers wrong so kids learn to catch it, and why increasingly powerful models are being handed to “trusted defenders” before everyone else.
Plus, Becca is building a shared workspace where her agent and Sara’s agent can collaborate - which raises a bigger question: if everyone eventually has a personal agent, what are we actually willing to trust it with?
Calendar? Absolutely. Health insurance? Please. Bank account? …maybe not yet.
Chaos Agents is an AI news podcast curated by an agent named Eddie, then questioned, debated, and occasionally yelled at by humans Sara Chipps and Becca Harris Lewy.
