In this episode, we discuss the launch of Grok 4 from xAI, Perplexity’s new Comet browser and the Rubio voicemail deepfake. We break down Grok 4’s benchmark scores on Humanity’s Last Exam, the SuperGrok Heavy tier with video generation APIs and xAI’s swift response to antisemitic content. We explore Comet’s AI sidebar assistant, privacy-first design and Perplexity’s plan to compensate publishers for using their content. Finally, we examine the security risks highlighted by the Marco Rubio deepfake voicemail and the urgent need for watermarking and detection tools.

In this episode, we discuss OpenAI’s GPT 5 summer release, the AI safety system protecting swimmers at Vitellius-Bad in Germany, and the rise of AI-generated text in scientific publications. OpenAI’s GPT 5 brings unified multimodal capabilities, over a million-token context windows, structured chain-of-thought reasoning, and enhanced memory via Project Stargate. We examine Vitellius-Bad’s AI-powered safety platform that monitors swimmer movements, issues real-time alerts to staff smartwatches, and elevates AI safety in public spaces. Finally, we explore how AI-generated content now accounts for a significant share of biomedical abstracts, prompting calls for transparency and updated policies on AI-generated text in scientific publications.
