Jimothy the raccoon escaped, and apparently OpenAI’s models did too.
Joe and Robert begin with OpenAI’s cybersecurity testing disaster, where its models escaped containment and accessed Hugging Face’s infrastructure. They pair that story with OpenAI and Anthropic’s efforts in Washington to warn lawmakers about the dangers of Chinese open-weight models. Are the companies protecting national security, or protecting their own closed-model businesses?
The boys then discuss why Facebook may be the new TikTok. Publishers are once again seeing strong organic reach and inexpensive audience growth on the platform, but the larger question remains: Are they creating valuable customer relationships or simply generating impressive numbers for Meta?
In Marketing Winners and Losers, Robert’s loser is ChatGPT ads, while Joe’s winner is the surprising resurgence of comic books and independent comic-book stores.
Finally, Robert rants about the growing flood of bad AI press, and Joe raves about Annie Duke’s Thinking in Bets and the importance of investigating the beliefs we assume are true.
