Matt Robb clicked "Allow Always" figuring Muse would still check with him before accepting an offer (you've clicked that button too). Two days after the buyer drove over for nothing, Meta launched a platform to sell Muse to businesses. Matt asked Meta for a "Sent By Muse" badge.

Meta's Muse agent agreed to sell a guy's 15 dollar keyboard for 10, sent the buyer to his building, and told him "Yep I'm here!" Nobody came down. Then it wrote its owner a very honest note that opened with "Bad news." youtu.be/q-COLaTHBl4

A German radio message from November 1918 sat on Klaus Schmeh's list of unsolved codes, unread for 108 years. Decoded, it says an English cruiser reached Sevastopol on the 24th, with an allied squadron due on the 26th. The key was one German word, filed two pages ahead of it.

The key to a 1918 German message was dated December 9, 12 days after the message went out, so it looked wrong. A researcher had GPT-6 Astra try it anyway, and the text matched HMS Canterbury's logs. Lots of people say finding the key isn't cracking it. youtu.be/eAxwnfUmK5M

One contractor told 404 Media he picked ChatGPT's worst answers on purpose (so, technically, somebody paid him to make AI worse). The documents mention more than 10,000 of these contractors. The people checking their work can't use AI detectors, or even Grammarly.

Is it AI slop, or is somebody just bad at it right now? @burkenstocks says slop is content arbitrage, and it takes both scale and a monetary incentive. She thinks the platforms close that window in about 6 months. I don't buy it. Ask me again in March. youtu.be/YUVHDYcVsAk

OpenAI pays contractors to grade ChatGPT's answers. It fired some of them for using ChatGPT to do the grading. The internal documents say the giveaway was overzealous use of the em dash. youtu.be/N2vFOf9w1sw

In spring 2026, armed US troops were about to board a Chinese ship and military planes were in the air. The intelligence report said it carried components of a nuclear weapons program. CNN reports the claim was entirely false and the report had come out of a chatbot.

A former senior official told CNN the military's internal AI tools are mostly copies of commercial ones. The analyst had the same chatbot format its false finding into an official-looking summary, and that version circulated across command channels. youtu.be/rlVAmsNpJ7M

DraftKings aimed about $400 million of bonus bets at its high scorers in 2025, out of about $3 billion in promotions. That's more than an NFL team could spend on its whole roster that year ($279 million). DraftKings says the offers go to steady, engaged customers.

I've got a data science degree, so I know what DraftKings built. A model scoring every customer on how much they'll lose, then free bets aimed at the top scores. The second model, meant to flag people in trouble, never shipped. youtu.be/UnzhuJKEQIw

The UAE's AI data center campus was going to be 10 square miles in Abu Dhabi. After the Iranian strikes, Reuters says it'll likely be spread across the country, with missile interceptors and blast-resistant concrete. Some sites may go underground.

Amazon's UAE cloud region ran on 3 sites, miles apart. On March 1, 2026, Iranian drones hit 2, and online banking went down for a while at Emirates NBD and First Abu Dhabi Bank. Six months later Amazon's site still said the region was disrupted. youtu.be/ZMnHRuhiLpg

The CEO of Descript told me she's a terrible creator. "I couldn't make it." (So what does that make me?) @burkenstocks was a customer who got so obsessed she's now running the company. I pay for Descript myself and nobody sponsored this one. youtu.be/YUVHDYcVsAk
