Apple’s iPhone Duo, Meta’s Muse AI Agent, Anthropic Researcher Quits Over AI Doom | Diet TBPN
John Coogan and Jordi Hays join TBPN to discuss Apple's foldable iPhone Duo, Meta's Muse AI agent, and an Anthropic researcher's resignation over AI extinction fears.
The gist
-
Apple's iPhone Duo is expected to cost $2,000 to $3,000, making it more of a luxury item than a practical upgrade for most people.
-
Meta's Muse agent offers 8GB of memory and storage per user with end-to-end encryption, handling shopping, email, and task automation.
-
Meta's real advantage in AI agents is its existing distribution through Instagram, WhatsApp, and Messenger, rather than any standalone app.
-
An Anthropic researcher who publicly claimed over 10% odds of human extinction within a decade faced criticism for offering no rigorous mathematical backing.
