In episode 84 of The AI Fix, Graham and Mark stare straight into the digital abyss and ask the most important question of our age: "Is AI just a hungry ghost trapped in a jar?"
Also this week, we explore how a shadowy group of disgruntled insiders trying to destroy AI by poisoning its training data, how "vibe-coding" has stopped being a joke with even Linus Torvalds joining in, how Google’s AI health advice could have endangered lives, and why simply asking an AI the same question twice can turn it from clueless to near-omniscient.
Oh, and AI has managed to crack some famously unsolved maths problems in minutes, and Grok gains access to all of the Pentagon's networks? What could possibly go wrong?

Is Santa Claus real? This Christmas special of The AI Fix podcast sets out to answer that question in the most sensible way possible: by consulting chatbots, Google's festive killjoys, and the laws of relativistic physics.
Your hosts unwrap a festive grab-bag of AI absurdity as Waymo self-driving taxis run over a beloved San Francisco cat, then stage several fresh PR disasters by refusing to cross bridges, block holiday parades, and apparently chauffeur a man hiding in the trunk.
Meanwhile, Microsoft’s Copilot struggles to find anyone who actually wants to use it, while new research suggests the programmers of the future won’t need coding skills at all - just the ability to psychologically profile an AI.
