  • We Go Hands-On with OpenAI's New ChatGPT Agent LIVE
    Jul 24 2025

    OpenAI just dropped ChatGPT Agent, and we test it LIVE for the first time. Watch as we put this "true" AI agent through its paces - from finding the perfect Gibson Les Paul to building competitive intelligence reports. We explore what makes this different from Zapier-style automation, demonstrate real-world use cases, and discuss why this might be the beginning of America's first super app. Plus: can it actually convince Corey's wife he needs a new guitar?

  • How AI Could Solve Education (Instead of Breaking It)
    Jul 16 2025

    Headlines scream that AI is "breaking the classroom," but is the story that simple? In this episode we explore the real cracks in today's education system, how AI sometimes widens them, and—more importantly—how the same technology could personalize learning, free teachers to teach, and shift schools from rote memorization to true mastery. We discuss the UCLA "CheatGPT" controversy, MIT's brain study, Alpha School's 2-hour learning model, and OpenAI's new $10M teacher training initiative.

  • Will AI Supercharge Our Output or Sink Our Standards?
    Jul 10 2025

    Will AI turbocharge our output—or erode our standards in the rush to automate? In this episode, strategist Andreas Welsch (ex-SAP, author of The AI Leadership Handbook) joins Corey Noles and Grant Harvey to weigh the promise of higher productivity against the peril of slipping quality. Expect plain-language insights on agentic AI, governance that scales, and the human skills and metrics that reveal whether AI is lifting the bar—or lowering it.
