Episode 29 | Zoom ChatBot Fail, Fiverr Layoffs & Viral Flan Prank on Outreach Automation
Update: 2025-10-01
Description
In Episode 29 of Notorious B2B, Tim and Tas made it through a really beefy docket filled with AI drama, weird Linkedin automations, and more layoffs because of “AI”.
First up: Little Post Manager’s bizarre tactic of tagging creators in AI-generated one-liners that make zero sense (including Tas “ditching lectures”). Then it’s onto Fiverr, who just laid off 30% of its workforce in the name of AI and told their internal freelancers to “find work on the platform.” Brutal.
OpenAI is also in the spotlight, with its $500B Stargate project raising questions about debt, environmental impact, and the future cost of AI. Zoom’s chatbot fails spectacularly in customer service screenshots, while a viral “flan recipe” trick exposes the cracks in cold email automation.
Plus, troll marketing gone wrong, LinkedIn copycats, and the funniest HR rejection email slip-up you’ll ever see.
