In episode 37 of “The AI Fix”, Google Gemini gets the munchies, the wettest country in the world can’t find any water, an escalator tries to eat Graham, o3-mini can’t rub two sticks together, and OpenAI invents an AI that can do “a single-digit percentage of all economically valuable tasks in the world” but nobody notices.
Graham wonders why his childhood was full of Triffids and quicksand, and discovers a way to trap overstepping AI crawlers in an endless maze, while Mark investigates the appalling state of DeepSeek security.
All this and much more is discussed in the latest edition of “The AI Fix” podcast by Graham Cluley and Mark Stockley.
