How much security are you willing to trade for convenience? Juan and Kate break down how prompt injection attacks exploit AI browsers like ChatGPT Atlas and Perplexity Comet, and why invisible instructions inside webpages can hijack your agents without you knowing.

We also discuss the resume hack going viral, the difference between direct vs. indirect prompt injection, and the real strategic trade-offs between convenience and LLM security.

Juan Faisal and Kate Cook plunge into the slop pile—AI news, cultural shifts, and the future’s endless curveballs. They’re not here to sanitize the mess; they’re here to wrestle with it, laugh at it, and find meaning where you least expect it.

AI productivity tools were supposed to help, but they often end up getting in the way of getting any work done.

Microsoft says the average worker gets hit 275 times a day, and many of those dings now come from the same AI tools that promised to keep us focused. Juan and Kate talk about how AI for business has turned into a distraction machine, how Copilot and similar tools push prompts no one asked for, and whether engagement metrics are driving this productivity mess.

OpenAI’s gone full YOLO: agents that work for you, a Sora app that feels like TikTok, an AI browser that wants to replace Chrome, and a new “adult freedom” stance. Juan and Kate dig into the logic, or lack of it, behind OpenAI’s everything-everywhere strategy, and why even its biggest users are starting to push back.
