The Chalene Show | Pop Culture, Women's Health, & FitnessShow Notes
Anthropic researcher Jacob Coxon quit on September 9 and warned that AI could kill us all within the decade, a claim that traces right back to Anthropic's own investor, Jaan Tallinn. Chalene Johnson lines his tweet up against Geoffrey Hinton, Jan Leike, and Dario Amodei's own CBS admission that the industry lied about the risks. She also unpacks how bot farms manipulate public opinion, using her own experience after the Lindsay Clancy case, plus a Divorce Tok deep dive featuring Brandi Hammond and Jen Hamilton's viral confessions. A new Griffith University study links semaglutide to a 21% drop in bipolar hospitalizations, and a new nonhormonal drug just posted a 74% drop in hot flashes. Chalene also covers Hayden Panettiere's cause of death, the skinny BBL trend, and her reality TV picks.
