Episode 673 opens with updates on the ongoing Anthropic / OpenAI / DoD situation, including discussion of autonomous systems, decision-speed, and military targeting concepts like “kill chain” vs “kill web.” The hosts then pivot into open-source model anticipation around DeepSeek V4, plus practical creator-tool chatter on MidJourney’s status and ecosystem shifts. They close the news with a quick note on GPT-5.3 Instant behavior changes, then transition to an “AI in science” segment on AI-powered digital twins for real-time tsunami early warning.
