Uncanny Valley | WIRED · Why Anthropic Shut Down Its Best AI (Special News Update) · 15 Jun 2026 podcast

And that mess is going to have implications for how AI gets developed in the United States, when things get released, how well it keeps up.

So, you know, I think not much for now.

And long term, I think it's a bigger question of like, does the average person need AI that's much more powerful in any case?

And how long will it take to get there?

Yeah, I will take a little bit of a sideways approach here too, though, in that if there is an impact on the average cloud user or just the average internet user, I do think there is something to the fact that, look, hackers have access to all these open source models and they are using them.

So does that mean it's more likely that things get hacked in a world without mythos being available to cybersecurity defenders?

Maybe.

I think it's a little bit...

I think that there's a lot of defense in place already, but maybe there's some weight to that when people like Alex Damos, who was then Facebook's head cybersecurity guy for years and years, comes in and says, hey, this is actually a problem.

I'm inclined to listen.

Uncanny Valley | WIRED · Why You Might Already Own SpaceX Shares; Inside the Knicks' Owner's Surveillance Machine · 11 Jun 2026 podcast

Okay, on to the show.

I'm a little tired, but it's because I got to see Lionel Messi play soccer last night and score a goal on a penalty kick.

Yeah.

It was a friendly of Argentina versus Iceland.

You'll never guess who won.

No.

It was Argentina.

Sorry.

They're very good at soccer.
