'Odd Lots' Cohost Joe Weisenthal Has Predictions About How the AI Bubble Will Burst

WIRED

Much of the US economy rests on AI's future. On this episode of podcast, cohost Joe Weisenthal breaks down why AI's impact on finance goes beyond billion-dollar investments. If you read any of WIRED's recent AI edition, you know that lots of people are spending lots of time talking about how the technology is revolutionizing pretty much everything--from coding to writing to accounting. You've also probably heard by now, from us or somebody else, that we might very well be in an economic bubble of AI origin, one wherein the billions and billions of dollars being funneled into the industry is creating an untenable economic scenario that could turn catastrophic. Of course, you may also have read that I'm really sick of being asked about AI . I'm still not sick, though, of asking other people about it--especially when they're much smarter about this stuff than I am. Enter Joe Weisenthal, the cohost of Bloomberg's fantastic podcast, and a former coworker of mine. Trust me: As someone who spent a year listening to Joe lose his mind in the office--loudly!--anytime the economy hiccuped, few people think more about our country's, and our planet's, financial circumstances than Joe does. And right now, Joe's concerns aren't strictly about what happens if or when that AI bubble bursts. His worries are more focused on what's going right and wrong with the US economy writ large. For this week's episode of, Joe and I talked about weird market indicators, US competition with China, and whether or not we should all prepare for an AI economic apocalypse. Nice to see you again. We were just talking about how [you] and I worked together--what was that, like nine years ago? I think you were there 2014, 2015, so maybe 10 years ago or something? Yeah, I worked at Bloomberg. I lasted about a year. But Joe, you were there, you were loud, you were proud, you were always very excited about the economy.


Social Security Data Is Openly Being Shared With DHS to Target Immigrants

WIRED

For months, the Social Security Administration was quietly sharing sensitive data about immigrants with DHS. Last week, the Social Security Administration (SSA) quietly updated a public notice to reveal that the agency would be sharing "citizenship and immigration information" with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). This data sharing was already happening: WIRED reported in April that the Trump administration had already started pooling sensitive data from across the government for the purpose of immigration enforcement. This public notice issued by SSA makes that official, months after the fact. The notice is known as a system of record notice (SORN), a document that outlines how an agency will share the data it has, with whom, and for what purpose. This notice is required under the Privacy Act of 1974.

Ex-Harvard president Larry Summers steps back from public role after Epstein email release

BBC News

Former Harvard president Larry Summers has said he will step back from public commitments after his emails with disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein were made public. I am deeply ashamed of my actions and recognise the pain they have caused, he said in a statement to CBS News, the BBC's US partner. I take full responsibility for my misguided decision to continue communicating with Mr Epstein. Emails released by Congress last week show Summers, a former US treasury secretary, communicated with Epstein until the day before the paedophile's 2019 arrest for sex trafficking minors. On Tuesday, House members are expected to vote on releasing all files related to the late sex offender.


UK consumers warned over AI chatbots giving inaccurate financial advice

The Guardian

Meta's AI chatbot received the worst score, followed by ChatGPT; Copilot and Gemini scored slightly higher. Meta's AI chatbot received the worst score, followed by ChatGPT; Copilot and Gemini scored slightly higher. Artificial intelligence chatbots are giving inaccurate money tips, offering British consumers misleading tax advice and suggesting they buy unnecessary travel insurance, research has revealed. Tests on the most popular chatbots found Microsoft's Copilot and ChatGPT advised breaking HMRC investment limits on Isas; ChatGPT wrongly said it was mandatory to have travel insurance to visit most EU countries; and Meta's AI gave incorrect information about how to claim compensation for delayed flights. Google's Gemini advised withholding money from a builder if a job went wrong, a move that the consumer organisation Which? said risked exposing the consumer to a claim of breach of contract.


Don't blindly trust what AI tells you, says Google's Sundar Pichai

BBC News

Don't blindly trust what AI tells you, says Google's Sundar Pichai People should not blindly trust everything AI tools tell them, the boss of Google's parent company Alphabet told the BBC. In an exclusive interview, chief executive Sundar Pichai said that AI models are prone to errors and urged people to use them alongside other tools. Mr Pichai said it highlighted the importance of having a rich information ecosystem, rather than solely relying on AI technology. This is why people also use Google search, and we have other products that are more grounded in providing accurate information. While AI tools were helpful if you want to creatively write something, Mr Pichai said people have to learn to use these tools for what they're good at, and not blindly trust everything they say.
