In episode 56 of The AI Fix, Anthropic and Apple have a bar fight, a woman describes her husband falling in love with ChatGPT as "not ideal", WhatsApp's AI helper isn't helpful, Graham serenades a pack of headless robot dogs with his rendition of "Don't stop me now", and our hosts debate whether AI turning our brains to porridge is actually a bad thing.
Graham tells the harrowing story of how chatbots are convincing ordinary people they were chosen, manipulated their minds, and in some cases, pushed them to the edge, and Mark stumps the world's best AIs with an easy question.
