episode The Week: AI, GLP-1s, and Scott's Iran War Reversal cover

Description

We're back with another episode of The Week, a new weekly show from Prof G Media, hosted by George Hahn. Every Friday, we'll break down the biggest stories shaping business, technology, politics, and culture — and connect the dots across the conversations happening throughout the Prof G universe. This week, George explores a question showing up everywhere from Silicon Valley to Hollywood: what happens when the promise of a technology collides with the reality of its costs? We discuss growing concerns about AI's return on investment, why Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos believes Hollywood's fears may be overblown, and why Eli Lilly CEO David Ricks thinks GLP-1 drugs could prove even more transformative than artificial intelligence. Plus, Scott revisits his early support for military action in Iran and reflects on how his thinking has changed as the war enters its fourth month. We’d love your feedback as we build this show.

China Decode: Ballistic Missile Test, Europe's AC Addiction, and China's AI Coding Challenger

Alice Han and James Kynge start with China's latest ballistic missile test into the Pacific and what it means alongside a new Australia-Fiji defense pact. Then: Europe wants to shrink its record trade deficit with China, but its worst heat wave on record has sent demand for Chinese air conditioners soaring. They break down whether the two sides can actually cooperate on AI and renewable energy even as tensions rise. Plus: Z.ai just launched ZCode, a coding agent for its GLM-5.2 model said to rival Claude and ChatGPT. Alice and James discuss how big a threat this is to U.S. AI dominance, as well as the fallout from claims that Anthropic used hidden code to track Chinese users. Finally: China's new "Ethnic Unity" law took effect July 1. What does it mean for Tibetans, Uyghurs, and Taiwan… and how is Beijing defending it internationally?
