In this episode of This Week in Startups, Jason Calacanis, Lon Harris, and Alex Wilhelm discuss several topics, beginning with Jason's strong reaction against a New York Times article that revealed details about Mark Zuckerberg's property in Palo Alto, which he views as "super doxing." They debate the ethics of the publication's decision to include specific location details. The conversation shifts to AI, particularly the emotional attachment some users are developing with chatbots like ChatGPT, and the potential for "AI psychosis." They explore examples from Reddit and discuss Sam Altman's response to user attachment to specific AI models. Finally, they discuss the trend of "over-employment," where individuals work multiple full-time jobs simultaneously, and the ethical implications and management challenges this presents. They also touch on Nvidia and AMD getting permission to sell chips in China, and the Trump administration demanding a 15 percent revenue share.
