It’s our first show of 2026 — and the AI news is already running hot. Ralph Behnke and Emile Ogier break down OpenAI’s new ChatGPT Health push (and why healthcare is a trust minefield), Nvidia’s CES “Vera Rubin” full-stack datacenter play, and the reported Meta acquisition of profitable AI app Manus — a move Emile compares to the WhatsApp deal because the real gold is the user base.We also go deep on robotics: why 2026 could be the year humanoids go mainstream, how “more-than-human” movement could make robots better than us in tight spaces, and why Nvidia is positioning itself as the “Android for robots” with projects like GR00T and Jetson Thor. Then it’s the reality check: malicious Chrome extensions siphoning AI chats, why Emile refuses to trust extensions, and the bigger lesson that AI-era “productivity tools” are now attack surface.Plus: ChatGPT Image Gen 1.5 reactions (including the infamous “piss filter” debate), a viral mini-robot that “kidnapped” other robots in a showroom (yes, really), Tesla’s rumored 200MW Cortex 2.0 buildout for training Optimus, and MIT’s “Project Iceberg” warning that the biggest automation wave may be invisible—until it isn’t.Perfect for: smart, AI-curious listeners who want the week’s most important stories, what’s real vs hype, and where 2026 is headed.
