This week, Daniel’s sick of typing and considers switching to vibe coding. Is interpretive dance the future of programming, or is it just a new way to avoid keyboards? We delve into the world of AI travel planners—can they book your Zimbabwe vacation without sabotaging travel agents? Meanwhile, Amazon and LinkedIn are on a mission to keep robots off their lawns (or websites). Microsoft's Omni Parser V2 is making waves. Will it be controlling Windows soon, or is it just gunning for a high score in Solitaire? And yes, Hunter spent $200 to theorize that 'Home Alone' is actually Dante's Inferno in disguise. Turns out, sometimes deep research just costs an arm and a leg, or maybe just a pizza delivery bill. Will AI agents soon help us navigate our digital lives with newfound ease? And is there a future where aging keyboard warriors can finally retire their fingers? Tune in to find out the juicy details only on They Might Be Self-Aware! Your future might depend on it!
