In this episode of Byte Of Truth, we cut through the noise to deliver the essential updates on the world of AI. We explore the formation of a single AI “Blob” through the mergers of tech titans, confronting the provocative idea that 100% unemployment could be inevitable. We investigate the critical research showing LLMs are pattern-matchers, not thinkers, and examine the dual nature of AI tools that are both terrifyingly powerful and remarkably helpful. From the human cost of new chip projects to the EU’s shifting tech policy and AI’s role in a clean energy future, this episode is your concise guide to the contradictions shaping our world.

Join us as we ask the tough questions, spark debate, and deliver the truth, one byte at a time.

Key Topics Covered:

• The AI Monopoly (“The Blob”)
• The Threat of 100% Unemployment & LLM Flaws
• Amazon’s AI Bug Hunters vs. AI Shopping Assistants
• EU Tech Policy and Human Displacement
• AI for a Sustainable Future

AI’s promises are crashing into reality. Tesla’s robotaxi permit versus Monarch’s autonomy lawsuit. Hugging Face’s bubble warning versus Lambda’s $1.5B raise. Who’s right?

Host Sébastien guides tech professionals through AI’s contradictory week:

• The Autonomy Paradox - Regulatory wins meet courtroom losses

• Model Wars - Google’s 1M-token Gemini 3 vs. open-source rebels

• Enterprise AI Reality - Microsoft managing bots like employees, AI doing taxes

• Infrastructure Gold Rush - Who profits when hype meets hardware?

Join the Conversation: What do you think? Is the AI hype cycle finally maturing? Let us know your thoughts.

AI is growing up, and it’s got some serious growing pains. This week on Byte Of Truth guides you through three stories that define the current state of European Tech.

First, the bizarre tale of an AI robot that started channeling the ghost of Robin Williams. It’s funny on the surface, but it raises profound questions about the personality of embodied AI.

Next, we switch gears to the hidden cost of our AI revolution: energy. With data centers under fire for their massive power consumption, we ask if Europe’s digital ambitions can survive its energy reality.

Finally, we go behind the scenes of a major business story: Who is Bending Spoons, the quiet Italian tech giant that just bought AOL? We unpack what this acquisition means for the future of the European tech scene.

Join Sébastien as he cuts through the hype to deliver the key insights you need to stay informed. A perfect listen for curious, tech-aware professionals.
