Tumbler Ridge and OpenAI, Pika.me Dead Internet, and Vibe Coder’s Hoover Robot Army: EP90

Could OpenAI have prevented the Tumbler Ridge shooting? Or are we asking the wrong question?

OpenAI flagged the suspect months before the tragedy. A human review led to an account ban. But no call to authorities. Was that a failure, or proof that AI companies are being asked to make decisions that should belong to democratically accountable institutions? 

Plus: Pika.me’s “AI Self” and whether it accelerates the dead internet, the Pentagon threatening to commandeer Claude, and the vibe coder who accidentally took control of a robot hoover army, which is a handy reminder that the Internet of Things is a security nightmare.
