A.I.’s Messy Moment + Listeners Respond to Jonathan Haidt + Shrimp Jesus



This week, we look at a mess of corporate drama in artificial intelligence. Stability AI has announced that its founder and C.E.O., Emad Mostaque, is leaving the company. Meanwhile, Microsoft hired away two of the co-founders and much of the staff of Inflection, without actually acquiring the company itself. Both moves surprised tech insiders. Then, we talked with listeners who had something to say about our interview with Jonathan Haidt on smartphones, social media and young people. And finally, we examine the true motives behind “Shrimp Jesus” and other hugely popular images on social media that were generated with artificial intelligence.

Today’s guests:

  • Jordan Lucero, a high school student

  • Maya Rayle, a graduate student

  • Jack Campbell, a college student

  • Brendan Kelley, a high school digital coach
