Google Drops Pledge to Not Develop AI Weapons & ChatGPT Joins the Dating Scene

We dive into the latest news around AI, surveillance, and control. First up, Google quietly ditches its pledge to avoid developing AI for weapons and surveillance — what does this mean for the future of Big Tech and military partnerships?

Finally, we end on a weird but fascinating note: a journalist discovers her date used AI to build an 8-page psychological profile on her — is this the new normal for online dating?
