Jason Howell and Jeff Jarvis are back for our weekly AI deep-dive. We cover Anthropic’s new Claude models and the “new model fatigue” problem, headline-grabbing AI blackmail tests and what they really mean, Google’s Veo 3 leap for generative video and what it means for creators, Duolingo’s AI-first shift and the jobs panic it sparked, plus a look at the “AI 2027” doomsday scenario and why it’s more fiction than fact.
