What happens when your browser, your apps, and your wallet all move inside one chat window?

If ChatGPT becomes the “everything app,” who owns the customer and who gets paid? Jeff and Annie break down OpenAI’s Dev Day volley: app platform inside ChatGPT, an agent kit for task bots, and a surprise compute tie-up with AMD. We dig into Sora’s “too viral” week—copyright landmines, opt-in rules, and whether revenue sharing can tame the chaos. Plus: Google’s developer-first computer-use agent, Duke’s robot lab designing better cancer drug delivery, Figure’s home humanoid (love it or fear it), and Anthropic’s Petri framework stress-testing models for deception and misuse.

In this episode we cover:

  • The Everything App: Can ChatGPT absorb mobile apps and upend ad economics?
  • Sora Fallout: Opt-in for likeness, rev-share for rights—viable or PR tourniquet?
  • Agent Wars: Google’s Gemini 2.5 computer-use API vs. OpenAI’s in-chat apps
  • AI in the Wild: Robotic labs (Tuna AI) accelerating nanoparticle design for cancer
  • Home Robots: Figure 03’s human-shaped helper—useful or uncanny.
