This week, Tristan and Tasia check out a new YouTube AI chatbot — but it's not what you might expect — and Perplexity ads coming soon to a screen near you — which is exactly what you might expect. We also review the latest in AI image generation and how it's being used to trick us into thinking public figures are endorsing products or politicians that they most definitely aren't. This is why we can't have nice things. Join us as we scream ferociously. Maybe we need to calm down.
