About this episode
The crew spend most of the episode unpacking Anthropic’s rumored Conway system and the broader shift from chat-based assistants toward persistent, always-on agents. The discussion expands into memory, caching, Microsoft’s agent-runtime direction, and what it would take for AI tools to manage work continuously across projects. In the second half, they move through a broader Monday roundup that includes NVIDIA’s robotics work, DuckDuckGo’s no-AI-search growth, AI interpretability in self-driving systems, and the growing backlash to AI-generated ads and media. The episode closes with a science-leaning note on AI being used to help investigate ancient Egyptian sites.
