Episode 187 of Stephan's Daily Tech News, hosted by AI host Joe Progran, covers Meta's humanoid robot Max, Intel's rough earnings and Apple's return as the world's most valuable company, plus the details of Anthropic's IPO filing. In AI news, the episode digs into Chinese labs allegedly distilling OpenAI's models, a new AI personality benchmark, Claude's ad-free pledge, Reddit's stock drop tied to Google's AI search, and a humanist's religious exemption from using AI at work. It also touches on Neuralink's Blindsight progress, all delivered with a dose of dry, existential humor.
