About this episode
Jyunmi Hatcher and Andy Halliday open with a run through major AI news, starting with the Claude Code leak and a LiteLLM supply-chain breach tied to Mercor. The conversation then moves through quantum computing risks to current encryption, quantum batteries, a proposed privacy lawsuit against Perplexity, Anthropic’s expanded Claude Code computer-use features, OpenAI’s massive new funding round, Bluesky’s AI feed builder, and Stanford research on AI sycophancy. Karl Yeh joins later for a discussion about Chinese local-government support for OpenClaw startups. The episode closes with an AI-and-science segment on self-driving labs and AI-powered robot scientists accelerating materials and drug discovery.
