OpenAI’s Big Reset + A.I. in the Doctor’s Office + Talkie, a pre-1930s LLM

This week, OpenAI announced a loosened partnership with Microsoft and an aggressive new strategy to secure computing power. We unpack what these updates signal about OpenAI’s business strategy and whether the company can scale while balancing a trial against Elon Musk and investor concerns over missed financial targets. Then, the A.I. researcher Dr. Adam Rodman, of Harvard Medical School, returns to tell us about the most significant ways A.I. is changing how doctors treat patients. And finally, can an LLM trained only on very old texts predict the future? We’re talking with one of the creators of the chatbot talkie. Guests: Dr. Adam Rodman, internal medicine physician at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and assistant professor at Harvard Medical School. David Duvenaud, associate professor at the University of Toronto, former team lead at Anthropic and co-creator of talkie. Additional Reading: Microsoft and OpenAI Loosen Their Partnership Elon Musk and Sam Altman’s Epic Fight Heads to Court OpenAI Misses Key Revenue, User Targets in High-Stakes Sprint Toward IPO Take It From a Doctor: It’s OK if Your Medical Advice Comes From A.I.

Miksi tekoäly ei ole enää halpaa?

Jos olet viime aikoina ollut huomaavinasi, että kielimallit muuttuvat samaan aikaan sekä tehokkaammiksi että kalliimmiksi, olet oikeassa. Microsoft rajoitti Copilotin toiminnalisuutta Githubissa ja Anthropic sekoili Clauden hinnoittelun kanssa. Mutta mistä se johtuu ja – ennen kaikkea – ketä siitä voisi syyttää? Pudotuspelissä ratkeaa viimeisen alkusarjakamppailun tulos ja siirrytään ensimmäisiin välieriin todella absurdilla parituksella. Onko sinulla näkemys asiasta?

Elon Musk had a bad week in court

Elon Musk spent a lot of his week trying to explain how OpenAI wronged him — but mostly just seemed to annoy everyone else in the courtroom. Nilay and David discuss Musk's testimony in the OpenAI trial, and what it might mean for the trial going forward. After that, the Hype Desk gang recommends a couple of new things to watch, before the hosts chat about the week's new gadgets, including the Steam Controller and the dual-screen Zephyrus Duo laptop. Finally, in the lightning round, Brendan Carr picks a fight over Jimmy Kimmel again, Netflix buys into the clip economy, and Taylor Swift fights the AI. Further reading: Elon Musk confirms xAI used OpenAI’s models to train Grok All the evidence unveiled so far in Musk v.

Ferrari

Ferrari is the pinnacle of luxury scarcity — across its entire 79-year history, the company has sold just 330,000 cars at an average price today of $500,000. For context, Hermès sells that many Birkins and Kellys roughly every 2 years, and Rolex moves that many watches every 3 months. And yet this ultimate luxury product also lives under the same roof with a widely beloved professional sports team… one with 400 million rabid fans from all walks of life who live and die by the Scuderia’s performance every F1 race weekend! How is it possible that these two seemingly contradictory customer bases can coexist within the same company? And far from destroying each other’s value, only reinforce it? The answer, it turns out, is a beautiful, bloody, tragic and romantic opera that spans two families and three generations — and just might be one of the best tales we’ve ever told on Acquired.

Why Agents Make Every Job a Startup

AI was supposed to save time, but agents have done something stranger — they've made the infinite backlog of everything you could be doing feel immediate and urgent, creating a mix of exhilaration and overwhelm that looks a lot like founding a startup. This episode unpacks why that's happening, what new constraints replace the old ones, and the new roles and organizational structures that will need to emerge to make the agentic era actually work.

Building Pi, and what makes self-modifying software so fascinating

Brought to You By: • Statsig — ⁠ The unified platform for flags, analytics, experiments, and more. • Sonar – The makers of SonarQube, the industry standard for automated code review • WorkOS – Everything you need to make your app enterprise ready. — Mario Zechner is the creator of Pi, a minimalist, self-modifying AI coding agent, that is the foundation upon which OpenClaw (created by Peter Steinberger) is built. Meanwhile, Armin Ronacher is the creator of Flask, and a longtime user of Pi. The pair are also friends. I sat down with Mario and Armin for the latest episode of the Pragmatic Engineer Podcast for an interesting conversation about AI and their reservations about it – even though both are heavily invested in building AI-powered tools. Mario explains why he built Pi, and gives his take on why it has become so popular. Armin walks us through how he uses AI tools, including building a game with Pi, and why he always puts human judgment firmly at the heart of his approach. We cover the risks of over-automation, the limits of agentic workflows, and why strong engineers with informed judgment still matter. We also get into the challenges of working with code written by non-engineers, and whether open source can withstand a tidal wave of agent-generated code. — Timestamps (00:00) Intro (07:30) How Mario, Armin, and Peter Steinberger met(15:15) How 30 dev teams use AI agents: learnings (21:50) The importance of judgment (24:26) Challenges when non-engineers write code (28:30) Downsides of over-automation (32:18) Pi (48:09) OpenClaw + Pi (50:54) “Clankers” (57:32) Open source and AI (1:00:22) Complexity as the enemy (1:02:50) Building an AI-native startup (1:11:52) “Slow the F down” (1:16:40) MCPs vs. CLI (1:25:03) Predictions and staying up to date — The Pragmatic Engineer deepdives relevant for this episode: • The impact of AI on software engineers in 2026: key trends • Cycles of disruption in the tech industry • The AI engineering stack • The creator of OpenClaw: "I ship code that I don't read" • What is inference engineering?
