It’s a short holiday week, and with a couple of amazing stories in the news, we at Nonsense knew we had to put out a headlines-only episode early before you all slip into your turkey-and-gravy-induced coma.
Today’s secret: the easiest way to create a company worth nearly a billion dollars is to first start with an AI juggernaut worth nearly $90 billion and let an inexperienced board of directors unceremoniously fire the beloved CEO while providing no explanation to the public, let alone employees.
In addition to the still-developing OpenAI story, we’ve got some comments on Twitter’s advertisers (remaining and otherwise), Nothing Chat’s terrible idea, iRCS, totally new refrigerators, AI weather, lithium mimes, and cryspy gene editing. It’s a lot really.
Happy Thanksgiving to all our stateside listeners! We’ll be back next week with more of our regular Nonsense!
