Neo’s Human Operators, OpenAI's Restructure, and Albania’s 83 AI Babies: The AI Argument EP77

Your Neo home robot might not be powered by AI. It might be powered by teenager in a call centre who’s never folded a towel in his life. That’s the reality behind Neo, the $20K humanoid robot that’s supposedly autonomous. The videos look impressive. But when it gets confused? It needs a remote human operator. Would you invite a teleoperator into your home to do your chores?

Plus: OpenAI quietly rewrites its deal with Microsoft — giving them access to all its models until at least 2030, and permission to build their own AGI. Udio makes peace with Universal and starts work on a new, locked-down music platform. And Albania’s AI minister is having 83 babies.
