The money is enormous; the stakes are high; the products are, well, all over the place. Sit on your couch and read about it all long enough, and you're bound to feel some strong feelings. On this episode of The Vergecast, we get into some of those feelings. But first, David and Jake catch up on the week's remaining gadget news."
"After that, The Verge's Hayden Field joins the show to hear out some of David's hottest takes and biggest feelings on all things AI. (Shoutout to the great Subway Takes for the inspiration.) The gang debates the merits of AI friends, the phrase "ChatGPT told me," and how we're supposed to think about the way money moves through the AI business."
