About this episode
Elon Musk just threw OpenAI into chaos with a $97 billion bid for its nonprofit arm. But does he actually want it—or is it just for the memes?
Meanwhile, Slow Ventures has secured $60M to bet on the future of creators, and Brit and Jessica predict the rise of serial influencers.
Oh, and Google Maps is broken. Seriously.
All that and more in Episode #86 of More or Less.
