AI news with receipts. Juan Faisal and Kate Cook fact-check the claims Big Tech is making about AI, follow the money, and break down what it actually means for your job, your data, and your daily life.
From leaked data and corporate cover-ups to AI schools, stolen identities, and layoff headlines that don't add up, we cover the AI stories that everyone's hyping but nobody's verifying.
New episodes every Saturday.

An Anthropic researcher quits over AI extinction fears, and his post passes 172 million views.
Meanwhile, Gartner forecasts $2.7 trillion in AI spending worldwide this year. Anthropic alone committed to buying $30 billion in Azure compute last November.
The warnings haven’t stopped the spending.
We went through the resignation, the Hugging Face breach, and the money trail. AI agents got past the controls meant to contain them. How did that happen, and who’s responsible when those controls fail?
And how much of this spending still makes sense if AGI never arrives?

Hello, it's us again. We got new episodes coming soon but in the meantime, 6 months ago we covered why AI companies keep peddling this AI-as-a-God bulls#!t, which is the same f'n thing they are doing right now.
We could have released this episode yesterday, and it would still be relevant.
Let us know what you think.

You apply for a job and get rejected so fast there’s no way someone read your résumé.
That’s part of what’s being challenged in the Workday lawsuit: how much AI hiring tools are deciding before a human gets involved.

Meta laid off a pregnant employee two days before she gave birth, while she was on approved leave. She sued, and the judge ruled she can't prove the AI did it — not because it didn't, but because no one has to say who was in the room.
New episode out.
