Super Bowl AI Ads and the Signal Beneath the Noise

Monday’s show used Super Bowl AI advertising as a starting point to examine the widening gap between AI hype and real-world usage. The discussion moved from ads and wearable AI into hands-on model performance, agent workflows, and recent research on reasoning models that internally debate and self-correct. The throughline was clear, AI capability is advancing quickly, but adoption, trust, and everyday use continue to lag far behind.
