In this episode of TechWatch Radio, Sam Bushman and Jay Harrison checkout the buzz around Slate Auto's bold attempt to deliver a $25,000 electric truck by 2026. Will it be a stripped-down marvel or another over-promised EV? The guys break down what’s missing (including paint and touchscreens) and whether U.S. manufacturing can truly hit that price point.
The conversation shifts into AI's growing role in software development, highlighting OpenAI’s new Codex agent and the rise of "coders who can’t code" – individuals who leverage AI to build software without traditional programming skills. Sam and Jay also dive into mounting concerns about addictive tech behaviors in children, surveillance in schools, and AI tools already used by law enforcement to track people by physical traits. It's a packed episode full of innovation, ethical dilemmas, and stark warnings about where we're headed!
