What if your AI twin outsold you, and ChatGPT made your brain… slower?
In this episode, Jeff and Annie explore the strange ways AI is reshaping how we think, work, and even sell. Meta’s smart glasses are getting a reboot, OpenAI’s “Projects” feature keeps leveling up, and China just pulled off a $7M livestream using two AI hosts.
