I feel like they've got this big sword of Damocles hanging over their head and they're spending their time just doing the goofiest stuff they can imagine before that all comes due.
It's great.
It's fun.
I'm Brian Barrett, executive editor.
Who would have thought?
Also on the docket for today, your car could have a hidden device that makes it more vulnerable to hacking.
We're going to talk you through how to identify it and why some dealerships added it in the first place.

I want to back this up a little bit, too, because I think we haven't mentioned yet that what makes Kimmy K3 especially interesting, I think, in this context is that it's an open-weight AI system, which means it's not unlike the proprietary systems that are coming out of Anthropic and OpenAI and other US-based systems.

Not yet.
