Is ChatGPT Changing How You Think?

from What the AI?! Hosted by Upstart

What if your AI twin outsold you, and ChatGPT made your brain… slower? In this episode, Jeff and Annie explore the strange ways AI is reshaping how we think, work, and even sell. Meta’s smart glasses are getting a reboot, OpenAI’s “Projects” feature keeps leveling up, and China just pulled off a $7M livestream using two AI hosts. Meanwhile, an MIT study raises red flags about what writing with ChatGPT might be doing to our brains. We also discuss: Meta’s smart glasses push with Oakley and what consumers actually use them for OpenAI’s steady rollout of new ChatGPT features (and their new podcast) MIT's SEAL framework for self-improving models — and why it matters A $7M AI live-stream sales event in China and the rise of AI influencers McKinsey’s take on why genAI isn’t delivering ROI — yet A new UK study on kids using AI — and how it’s splitting along private vs. public education lines Relevant Links: Meta announces Oakley smart glasses with AI features OpenAI upgrades ChatGPT Projects with voice and mobile tools OpenAI launches official podcast hosted by Andrew Mayne MIT unveils SEAL: AI that improves itself with no humans China’s AI models show human-like internal concept mapping McKinsey report: Why genAI isn’t improving the bottom line $7M Baidu livestream driven by AI avatars China’s $1T digital human industry explained Alan Turing Institute study on AI use in UK schools MIT brain scan study on ChatGPT writing impact
