Emergency Pod: Instant Reactions to MetaAI Vibes

Hello, and welcome to an emergency episode of Sharp Tech complete with fake tornado sirens. I'm Andrew Sharp.

Honored is what I am. I the the fake siren from GOAT has made it to Sharp Tech? Oh.

That's right. What are the Alright. You know, it's an emergency. I'm Andrew Sharp. Ben, we finished recording about an hour and a half ago. You ordered me back into the studio so that we could reconvene. Tell me why we're here. What's the emergency as we record today?

Well, number one, before I get to that, Meta, stop watching stuff on Thursdays. You do it all the time. It drives me bonkers. We could wait in a row.

Two weeks in a row throwing a wrench into our schedule.

We could wait till next week, except that what I want to talk about is directly applicable to the podcast we just recorded. And I might have to eat some of my eat some of my words. And and so you know what? If you have to eat your words, do it sooner rather than later. That's sort that's sort of some life advice right there.

A good maxim for life. Yes. For anybody who hasn't listened to the full episode Ben and I just recorded, there was a period in there where we talked about Meta's languishing AI efforts and the sort of rudderless ship over there with respect to AI and particularly the delay in shipping, but it does appear that they just shipped a new AI product that is directly relevant to what we were discussing.

So at the same time that I had that weird interview with Mark Zuckerberg, they released like the Meta AI app. And I used it for about ninety seconds. It wasn't very like the big thing was that it went to voice first instead of chat or whatever.

I downloaded it. Yeah. I used it very much.
