Neo Robot Fails, Google Pomelli Demo, and the End of Transformers?

Brian, Beth, Andy, and Karl broke down OpenAI’s new corporate structure, Meta’s earnings stumble, and the hype collapse around the Neo home robot. They also tested Google’s new Pomili campaign builder and closed with a quick look at what might replace Transformers in AI’s next phase.


Key Points Discussed


OpenAI’s Pivot – Restructured as a public benefit corporation, shifting from AGI talk toward scientific research and autonomous lab assistants.


Meta’s Setback – Missed earnings and dropped valuation despite record revenue, signaling a reset year for its AI ambitions.


Neo Robot Fail – Exposed as teleoperated, not autonomous. Privacy and trust concerns followed the viral backlash.


Character.AI Teen Ban – Voice chat removed for users under 18 amid growing mental health scrutiny.


Google Pomili Launch – Early look at AI-driven brand builder that generates ready-to-use marketing campaigns.


Beyond Transformers – Experts like Karpathy and LeCun say the model has peaked, with world models and neuromorphic systems now in focus.
