About this listen

Today's episode covers OpenAI's new age verification system for ChatGPT following a tragic teen suicide case, with Sam Altman announcing safety restrictions for users under 18. We explore growing concerns from university professors about AI undermining education as students misuse tools like ChatGPT, bypassing critical thinking skills. The economic implications of AI are highlighted through Palantir's billion-dollar Q2 earnings with 48% growth, raising questions about wealth inequality in the AI age. We examine how AI benefits are primarily flowing to those with existing capital, potentially widening the gap between wealthy and ordinary users. The episode discusses the complex balance between AI accessibility and protecting vulnerable users, while questioning whether AI mastery is truly necessary or simply a learning crutch.
