AI adoption is skyrocketing—but trust is falling off a cliff. In this episode of WTAI, we break down one of the biggest paradoxes in tech right now: more people are using AI than ever before, yet confidence in it is collapsing. Why? We cover:

  • OpenAI’s massive $122B funding round and next-gen model rumors
  • Anthropic’s shocking leaks and what they reveal about AI agents
  • Microsoft combining GPT + Claude for better results
  • Eli Lilly’s $2.7B bet on AI-driven drug discovery
  • A new poll showing 73% of Americans use AI—but only 21% trust it
  • Jack Dorsey’s vision to replace managers with AI systems
This episode connects the dots between enterprise adoption, workforce anxiety, and the growing trust gap shaping the future of AI. 👉 If AI is becoming the operating system of work… what happens when no one trusts it?

It is that AI is moving from helping you think to helping you act. If you work in tech, business, or any knowledge role, this changes what it means to be productive—and what skills actually matter. 🎧 Watch the full episode of What the AI?!
