xAI gets colossal 🔴 AINTS 053

AI Named This Show

This week, Tristan and Tasia get into some of the details about OpenAI's and Anthropic’s enterprise AI efforts, the drama regarding Oprah's upcoming AI special (that no one's actually seen yet), and the possible futility and/or self-defeating nature of the Council of Europe's AI safety treaty. Then we marvel once again, this time at xAI's Memphis Supercluster, its energy requirements, and how it helps — and possibly hurts — NVIDIA. Join us as we fire up some diesel generators in our pursuit of general artificial intelligence. What's the worst that could happen?
