#10 The building blocks of AGI - Google's Gemini, OpenAI's Q*

Did OpenAI’s models go rogue, or is the AI industry using the Hugging Face breach to push ethics washing and top-down regulation? In this episode, we unpack the incident, examine the METR report, and explore perspectives from industry leaders including Demis Hassabis and Mark Zuckerberg. We also discuss the core arguments around AI existential risk and superintelligence safety. 👋 Enjoying our conversations? Reach out and share your thoughts and journey with us.

Do big frontier models outperform narrow AI tools? Here we look into the healthcare domain, where a paper titled "General-purpose large language models outperform specialized clinical AI tools on medical benchmarks" was making headlines. The paper seemed to suggest that frontier LLMs from OpenAI and Gemini appeared to outperform more specialised clinical AI tools. However, there is more than meets the eye here. In this episode Dev and Doc deep dive into the fascinating debate of whether generalised LLMs do indeed outperform smaller specialised models.

Dev and Doc are back after a Hiatus! We've been busy, but we are back to discuss Claude Fable 5, Anthropic's most powerful LLM yet. Despite its impressive benchmark-crushing performance, the model has a few problems around anxiety, privacy, cheating in testing environments and overguardrailing. It's going to be a fun one :) 👋 Hey! If you are enjoying our conversations, reach out, share your thoughts and journey with us.

On this episode of Dev and Doc, Doc sits down with Dr Hamilton Morrin, a psychiatrist and doctoral fellow exploring the intersection of AI and psychiatry. Together, we have seen first hand the impact and rise of AI psychosis, and over time we have been mapping out and publishing frontier research on this topic.

2026 is going to be a big year. 2025 was the year of AI agents, voice, and more intelligent autonomous large language models. Now, some massive changes are coming — including big tech's grab for healthcare, the rapid progression of robotics, and new world models that will usher in a new era of AI applications. Join academic and industry experts Dev and Doc as they delve into the biggest predictions in AI healthcare for 2026. You heard it here first! :) 👋 Hey!
