Description

OpenAI says it's aiming to build a totally automated AI researcher by 2028...


And it has completed its transition from non-profit to for-profit company, paving the way for an eventual IPO.


This week, Paul and Mike talk about those stories and more, including a warning from the Fed chair about AI's impact on hiring, a new index measuring how well agents do remote work, and Nvidia's $5 trillion valuation.


This week's episode also covers a new report on corporate AI adoption from Wharton, the concerning rise of AI "nudify" apps, and much more.
