AI-Curious with Jeff Wilser

Welcome to the debut episode of The Weekly AI Edge!
This is part of the AI-Curious podcast. Each week you'll be getting short, punchy roundups of key AI news. We'll get you in and out.
This week:
A company called Weave Robotics announced that it's now taking pre-orders for humanoid robots that can do household chores -- like fold laundry, feed your dog, etc. This is just the latest development in humanoid robots, coming fast on the heels of other updates from companies ranging from OpenAI to Tesla.
And 3 quick things:
1. Apple gets ready to launch Apple Intelligence... and why this is a sneaky-big deal.
2. Trump gets AI-pic treatment with kittens and ducks...in more AI-fueled election misinformation.
3. OpenAI ready to release its biggest update since ChatGPT4?
Enjoy the ep!
