#189: Is Claude AGI?, AI Change Management, Nvidia-Groq Deal, Meta Acquires Manus, Yann LeCun Speaks Out & OpenAI Preps AI Device
A Google principal engineer claims Claude Opus 4.5 completed a year's worth of work in a single hour. Now, the industry is grappling with a sudden, massive leap in coding capabilities that has experts warning that everything is about to change.
In this week’s episode, Paul Roetzer and Mike Kaput dissect the signals that we may have entered the "singularity." They explore the fallout from Yann LeCun’s scorched-earth exit from Meta (including claims of "fudged" benchmarks), Sal Khan’s "1% Solution" for job displacement, and NVIDIA’s strategic acquisition of Groq talent.
