About this listen

Ready to peek behind the curtain of the world’s fastest-moving tech?

This week, we’re diving into the wildest new advancements in artificial intelligence—where the future is being built, one headline at a time. Microsoft just dropped “MW,” a compact language model that lives right inside Copilot Plus PCs, promising lightning-fast, on-device AI responses. Meanwhile, Google’s Magenta team is shaking up the music world with “Magenta RT,” an open-source, real-time music AI that lets you generate and manipulate audio on the fly. And if you’re a Mac user, meet “Similar”—the new AI agent that automates your web tasks locally, with you in the driver’s seat.

But it’s not all smooth sailing in AI land. OpenAI’s much-hyped hardware collab with design legend Jony Ive just hit a legal speed bump—a trademark dispute that forced them to pull their AI device promos (but don’t worry, the partnership is still alive and kicking).

From AI music generation to on-device language models, Mac automation, and the legal drama behind the scenes, this episode is your front-row seat to the latest AI news, breakthroughs, and controversies. If you want to stay ahead of the curve—and maybe even impress your friends with the freshest AI gossip—this is the podcast you can’t miss.
