OpenAI Launches Deep Research

Mid Mic Crisis: Funny-ish Tech Podcast

On the latest episode of Mid Mic Crisis blends sports, AI, and a bit of chaos as Bunchu and Chamber dive into some massive NBA news, cutting-edge AI developments, and a deep dive into betting. The episode kicks off with Chamber riding high on a wave of Lakers victories, culminating in what may go down as one of the worst trades in sports history—Luka Dončić joining the Lakers in exchange for Anthony Davis. Chamber, a lifelong Lakers fan, can hardly contain his excitement as he breaks down why this is a franchise-altering move and why Luka, despite any defensive concerns, is the player he’s always dreamed of having in LA. The conversation spirals into discussions about trade comps in other sports, including attempts to find an NFL equivalent for the shocking move.

Amidst the sports talk, the duo shifts gears to explore OpenAI’s latest groundbreaking release: ChatGPT Deep Research. They demo its ability to compile a full 25-page scouting report on the Raptors vs. Grizzlies game, analyzing every angle from injuries to betting odds, and even predicting the final score. The AI’s ability to sift through real-time data and create an in-depth analysis in minutes stuns both hosts, with Chamber acknowledging how game-changing this is for bettors, journalists, and even students looking to outsmart their professors.

But they’re not done with AI experiments yet. They fire up ChatGPT’s new operator feature, an autonomous agent that browses the web and interacts with real-world booking services. Testing its limits, they attempt to find affordable Super Bowl tickets and a nearby hotel, watching as the AI struggles through Ticketmaster’s bot detection but ultimately succeeds in pulling real ticket prices and lodging options. They then attempt to find a concert somewhere between New Jersey and Ontario that they could both attend, resulting in some hilariously off-the-mark suggestions.

The episode wraps with a hilarious real-life encounter Chamber had with a stranger who unknowingly nailed a perfect “driving crooner” moment, proving that niche internet humor can sometimes cross into real life in the most unexpected ways.

From massive NBA shakeups to AI advancements that could change industries overnight, this episode of Mid Mic Crisis is packed with insights, laughs, and a glimpse into the future of technology, sports, and online research.
