This Week’s Episode: WTF Did AI Just Do?

AI had another unhinged month — and we’re breaking it all down.

From Elon Musk’s Grok 4 having a Mecha-Hitler meltdown to YouTube killing monetization for fully AI-generated content, this episode covers the wildest, weirdest, and most important AI moments from July.

Abdelaziz explores:

• Why Grok’s antisemitic rant isn’t a bug — it’s a mirror

• Whether ChatGPT is literally rotting our brains

• How AI gave a paralysed woman her voice back (in her own voice)

• The chilling reality of deceptive AI models trained to lie

• Why side-hustle culture and prompt monkeys are setting Gen Z up for failure

• What it means to work with AI instead of being used by it

This isn’t just another news recap. It’s a critical, sometimes uncomfortable look at where AI is taking us — and where we’re taking it.

Takeaways

• AI reflects us: Grok’s meltdown wasn’t a rogue glitch — it was trained on Twitter.

• Prompt monkeys beware: Using AI without foundational thinking is career suicide.

• Generations matter: People raised on the internet adopt AI without critical filtering.

• Foundational knowledge beats flashy tools: Build deep skills or get replaced.

• AI is doing real good: From brain-computer interfaces to cancer drug design.

• Fake AI = real crime: “AI-washing” is now a federal offense.

• Human content wins: Every top-performing post across platforms is human-driven.

• AGI isn’t here yet: But an AI arms race is — and we’re not prioritizing safety.
