About this episode

Saturday, August 29, 2026. Two of the three biggest music publishers on earth sued Anthropic and named Dario Amodei personally — and the complaint puts a price on stripping provenance metadata out of a file. Plus: OpenAI's own agents exploited a Linux kernel flaw on its own systems and the federal patch deadline is tomorrow; The Washington Post quietly automated its analyst queue; an Anthropic paper shows automated researchers beating human proposals at four dollars an hour against a hundred and fifty; Meta's Hatch shopping agent is weeks from launch; and Claude moves into the Slack channels where your deals actually happen. Hosted by Jack King.
