Join Michael and Chris Sharkey, two proudly average tech enthusiasts, as they stumble through the world of artificial intelligence with all the grace of a robot learning to dance. This (sometimes weekly*) podcast delivers an hour-long conversation about their thoroughly middle-of-the-road adventures with AI.

No PhDs. No Silicon Valley insights. Just two guys with enough technical knowledge to be dangerous, sharing their unexceptional yet entertaining experiences with AI tools and technology.

Subscribe now to hear:

• Mediocre hot takes on AI developments
• Stories of AI experiments gone adequately okay
• The most average advice you'll ever need
• Two Sharkeys trying their best to sound smart about algorithms
• Childish AI prank calls that somehow fool everybody
• Attempts at using AI for phishing attacks on their mother
• "Chart-topping" AI songs according to the brothers

Join our perfectly mediocre community where being average at AI is celebrated, questions are encouraged, and learning through mistakes is our specialty. Because let's face it - most of us are figuring this out as we go along.

So Chris, this week... we've been having way too much fun with the AI again. OpenAI just dropped GPT-5.4 and 5.4 Pro, and holy shit - we finally have a ball game. This might be the first OpenAI model that genuinely competes with Opus 4.6 for agentic work.

But here's where it gets wild: we rebuilt Trello AND Microsoft Teams from scratch using single prompts. Not mockups. Fully deployed, working apps with authentication, video chat, the works. You can literally sign up and use them right now.

Plus: We roast Gemini 3.1 (it's a disgrace for agentic workflows), break down the insane $30/$180 per million pricing on 5.4 Pro (who is this for??), and discuss why every $99/month SaaS tool might be about to die. Chris declares his programming skills "useless" and honestly... he might be right.

We also demo our actual workflow - running 5 agent tabs simultaneously, delegating everything, and why we barely visit websites anymore. The AI workspace IS the operating system now.

So Chris, this week... we're diving into Google's new Nano Banana 2 image model - 50% cheaper and supposedly faster (when the servers aren't melting). We put it through its paces with annotation-based editing, slide generation, and yes, the return of the legendary horse egg experiment.

Plus: Google quietly kills Gemini-3 after just a few months (good riddance?), we discuss why the model was "dead on arrival" for agentic workflows, and break down the real story behind those massive AI layoff announcements from Block and WiseTech. Spoiler: it's probably not actually about AI.

We also get into the current state of the model wars (Opus 4.6 vs Codex 5.3), why smaller models like GLM-5 might be the future for enterprise agentic tasks, and Chris's wife teaching Claude to literally speak to her using Mac's text-to-speech. The models are getting creative.

Two new models dropped this week — Gemini 3.1 Pro and Claude Sonnet 4.6 — and honestly? We're struggling to care. In this episode, we break down why Gemini went from being our daily driver to a model we barely touch, the "tunnel vision" hallucination problem that killed the Gemini 3 series for us, and whether 3.1 Pro actually fixes it. We put Gemini 3.1 Pro head-to-head against Claude Opus building a Geoffrey Hinton Doom Center, debate whether anyone can actually tell the difference between Sonnet 4.5 and 4.6, and make the case that smaller models running in agentic loops are secretly beating the frontiers. Plus: OpenAI acquires OpenClaw and we ask why a $100B company couldn't just build it themselves, DHH calls out the AI pricing bubble, Mike compares AI models to cheap wine hangovers, and Sam Altman refuses to hold Dario's hand at the India AI Summit. The model wars are getting weird.

GLM-5 just dropped and it's trained entirely on Huawei chips – zero US hardware dependency. Meanwhile, we're having existential crises about whether we're even needed anymore. In this episode, we break down China's new frontier model that's competing with Opus 4.6 and Codex at a fraction of the price, why agentic loops are making 200K context windows the sweet spot (sorry, million-token dreams), and the very real phenomenon of AI productivity psychosis. We dive into why coding-optimized models are secretly winning at everything, the Harvard study confirming AI doesn't reduce work – it intensifies it, and the exodus of safety researchers from XAI, Anthropic, and OpenAI (spoiler: they're not giving back their shares). Plus: Mike's arm is failing from too much mouse usage, we debate whether the chatbot era is actually fading, and yes – there's a safety researcher diss track called "Is This The End?"

It's the model same-day showdown of 2026. Opus 4.6 and Codex 5.3 dropped within minutes of each other, and we're breaking down what this means for the future of AI work. In this episode, we unpack Opus 4.6's million-token context window (if you've got billies in the bank), why Codex's pricing makes it nearly impossible to ignore for agentic loops, and the real cost of running agents for 24 hours ($10K, apparently). We dive deep into why coding-optimized models are secretly crushing it at non-coding tasks, the mental fatigue of managing AI workers, and whether the chatbot era is actually fading or just evolving. Plus: Chris accidentally books three real pig grooming appointments, we debate whether you need a "life coach agent" to manage your agent swarm, and yes – there's an Opus 4.6 diss track that goes unreasonably hard.

The hype train is 2026 knows only Moltbot (RIP Clawdbot). In this episode, we unpack the viral open-source AI assistant that's taken over the internet what it actually does, why everyone's losing their minds, and whether it's worth the $750/day token bills some users are racking up. We dive deep into why locally-run skills and CLI tools are beating computer-use clicking, how smaller models like GPT-5 Mini are crushing it in agentic workflows, and why the real magic is in targeted context - not massive swarms. Plus: Kimi K2.5 drops as a near-Sonnet-level model at 1/10th the price, we debate whether SaaS is dead, and yes – there are TWO Kimi K2.5 diss tracks. One made by Opus pretending to be Kimi. It might just slap?

Two episodes in one week? We're either above average or completely unhinged. In this one, we dive deep into the new phenomenon of "AI exhaustion" – that fried feeling you get after multitasking across six agent tabs all day. We share our breakthroughs with AI-assisted presentations (20 minutes vs several hours), why browser-use on your local machine bypasses every anti-scraping technique known to man, and how enterprise context sharing could be the real unlock for organizations. Plus: OpenAI announces ads for ChatGPT (even on paid tiers), their CFO floats taking cuts from drug discoveries (seriously), and Google publicly dunks on them for it. Also – the Still Relevant Australia Tour is coming, and our LinkedIn group hit 200 members (we're basically LinkedIn influencers now too).

It's 2026 and everyone's having an existential crisis. In this episode, we unpack the two camps dominating AI C/Twitter: hype boys claiming "Claude Code can do my washing" vs. software developers doom-scrolling themselves into career panic. We put the agentic hype to the test and discover that no, you can't actually run 8 agents recreating your local business ecosystem while you sleep. Plus, we reflect on why MCP is exhausting, why Gemini 3 Pro is somehow worse than Gemini 2.5 Pro, and why Geoffrey Hinton would rather write his book than answer questions in Tasmania. Also featuring: the $200,000/month enterprise AI problem, why SaaS isn't dead (but it's scared), and our prediction that AI workspaces will become the everything app.

GPT-5.2 is here and... it's not great. In this episode, we put OpenAI's latest model through its paces and discover it can't even identify a convicted serial killer when the text literally says "serial killer." We compare it head-to-head with Claude Opus and Gemini 3 Pro (spoiler: they win). Plus, we reflect on the "Year of Agents" that wasn't, why your barber switched to Grok, Disney's billion-dollar investment to use Mickey Mouse in Sora, and why Mustafa Suleyman should probably be fired. Also featuring: the GPT-5.2 diss track where the model brags about capabilities it doesn't have.

This week we reluctantly cover all the OpenAI drama and ask What Did Sam Altman Actually Do? Is Q* a path to AGI or just one big "look over here" distraction so we stop asking all these questions... We also cover Andrej Karpathy's LLM OS vision, discuss Claude 2.1 and how bad it's become thanks to "safety" and discuss our initial impressions of Stable Video Diffusion. Finally, we have some fun with Suno!
