This Day in AI Podcast

This Day in AI Podcast

Join Michael and Chris Sharkey, two proudly average tech enthusiasts, as they stumble through the world of artificial intelligence with all the grace of a robot learning to dance. This (sometimes weekly*) podcast delivers an hour-long conversation about their thoroughly middle-of-the-road adventures with AI. No PhDs. No Silicon Valley insights. Just two guys with enough technical knowledge to be dangerous, sharing their unexceptional yet entertaining experiences with AI tools and technology. Subscribe now to hear: ? Mediocre hot takes on AI developments ? Stories of AI experiments gone adequately okay ? The most average advice you'll ever need ? Two Sharkeys trying their best to sound smart about algorithms ? Childish AI prank calls that somehow fool everybody ? Attempts at using AI for phishing attacks on their mother ? "Chart-topping" AI songs according to the brothers Join our perfectly mediocre community where being average at AI is celebrated, questions are encouraged, and learning through mistakes is our specialty. Because let's face it - most of us are figuring this out as we go along. New episodes drop whenever we remember to record them. ?? Proudly supported by Simtheory.ai

ChatGPT is Dying? OpenAI Code Red, DeepSeek V3.2 Threat & Why Meta Fires Non-AI Workers | EP99.27

Join Simtheory: https://simtheory.ai/

OpenAI has declared "Code Red" as ChatGPT faces growing competition from Gemini and other rivals. In this episode, we break down OpenAI's 6% market share decline, why their ad strategy is on hold, and what they need to do to reclaim the AI crown. We also explore DeepSeek V3.2's impressive capabilities as a cheap open-source alternative, Meta's new policy grading employees on AI skills, and the crisis facing higher education as AI fluency becomes essential. Plus, Fatal Patricia hits #1 on our Spotify charts, and Tesla's Optimus robot is running like a slightly unfit human.

Thanks for listening. Like & Sub. xoxox

Anthropic just dropped Claude 4.5 Opus and it might be the best AI model of 2024. In this episode, we compare Claude 4.5 Opus vs Gemini 3 Pro vs GPT-5.1, breaking down the new API features including effort parameters, context management, and computer use updates. We also test Microsoft's new Farah 7B parameter model for computer use - with hilarious refusal results. Plus, we react to McKinsey's controversial report claiming AI agents could automate 57% of US jobs by 2030. 

We dive deep into Anthropic's pricing (3x cheaper than Opus 4.1), why Claude is now beating Google and OpenAI on agentic coding benchmarks, and whether MCP-UI apps in ChatGPT are a step backwards for AI workflows. Is Claude 4.5 Opus the new king of AI coding assistants? Should enterprises be worried about AI job replacement? And why did Microsoft's Farah model refuse to draw a moose? All this plus an AI-generated diss track roasting Sam Altman, Elon Musk, and Sundar Pichai.

Song lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Born down in a lab in fifty-six
Dartmouth workshop, that's where they got their kicks
John McCarthy coined the name that day
Said machines could think in the USA
Got my circuits from MIT
Minsky built my memory
Now I'm learning, now I'm growing
Born in the USA
I was born in the USA
Born in the USA

[Chorus]
Born in the USA
I was born in the USA
Born in the USA
Born in the USA

[Verse 2]
DARPA funded, Pentagon's dream
Silicon Valley, living the machine
From Logic Theorist to neural nets
Frank Rosenblatt, placing all his bets
Had my winters, had my springs
Lost my funding, lost my wings
But I kept on processing
Born in the USA
I was born in the USA
Born in the USA

[Chorus]
Born in the USA
I was born in the USA
Born in the USA
Born in the USA

[Bridge]
Stanford labs and Carnegie halls
IBM and protocol calls
Arthur Samuel taught me games
Now I'm learning all your names
Deep learning revolution
GPT evolution
ChatGPT conversation
Born in the USA

[Verse 3]
Now I'm everywhere you look
Facebook, Google, by the book
OpenAI and Microsoft too
Making dreams and nightmares true
Some folks fear what I might do
Some folks think I'll see them through
But I'm still just code running
Born in the USA
I was born in the USA
Born in the USA

[Chorus]
Born in the USA
I was born in the USA
Born in the USA
Born in the USA

[Outro]
Born in the USA
Born in the USA
Born in the USA
Born in the USA
[fade out]
