AGI is coming in 2025 or at least that’s what OpenAI’s Sam Altman thinks. Plus, huge announcements from NVIDIA at CES & hands on with Google’s VEO 2. AND OpenAI’s Operator (aka their AI Agents) might come soon, DeekSeek V3 is pretty darn good, Meta makes a big mistake with their AI personalities, Minimax’s new subject reference tool, METAGENE-1 might help us stave off disease, and all the robot vaccum news you could ever want. Oh, and Kevin is sick. BUT HE’S GOING TO BE FINE.

AI PREDICTIONS are never easy but we give our thoughts on what will happen in 2025 and beyond as well as dive into OpenAI’s o3 announcement and what it means for all of us. Then, we fed all of AI For Humans into Google's NotebookLM and had them take a DeepDive look at how we did over the course of 2024. We did ok? It’s a quickie AI For Humans episode for the holidays (one day behind schedule) but we’ll see y’all for a normal one next week!
