Über diesen Titel

Join Michael and Chris Sharkey, two proudly average tech enthusiasts, as they stumble through the world of artificial intelligence with all the grace of a robot learning to dance. This (sometimes weekly*) podcast delivers an hour-long conversation about their thoroughly middle-of-the-road adventures with AI. No PhDs. No Silicon Valley insights. Just two guys with enough technical knowledge to be dangerous, sharing their unexceptional yet entertaining experiences with AI tools and technology. Subscribe now to hear: • Mediocre hot takes on AI developments • Stories of AI experiments gone adequately okay • The most average advice you'll ever need • Two Sharkeys trying their best to sound smart about algorithms • Childish AI prank calls that somehow fool everybody • Attempts at using AI for phishing attacks on their mother • "Chart-topping" AI songs according to the brothers Join our perfectly mediocre community where being average at AI is celebrated, questions are encouraged, and learning through mistakes is our specialty. Because let's face it - most of us are figuring this out as we go along.

    The hype train is 2026 knows only Moltbot (RIP Clawdbot). In this episode, we unpack the viral open-source AI assistant that's taken over the internet what it actually does, why everyone's losing their minds, and whether it's worth the $750/day token bills some users are racking up. We dive deep into why locally-run skills and CLI tools are beating computer-use clicking, how smaller models like GPT-5 Mini are crushing it in agentic workflows, and why the real magic is in targeted context - not massive swarms. Plus: Kimi K2.5 drops as a near-Sonnet-level model at 1/10th the price, we debate whether SaaS is dead, and yes – there are TWO Kimi K2.5 diss tracks. One made by Opus pretending to be Kimi. It might just slap?

    Two episodes in one week? We're either above average or completely unhinged. In this one, we dive deep into the new phenomenon of "AI exhaustion" – that fried feeling you get after multitasking across six agent tabs all day. We share our breakthroughs with AI-assisted presentations (20 minutes vs several hours), why browser-use on your local machine bypasses every anti-scraping technique known to man, and how enterprise context sharing could be the real unlock for organizations. Plus: OpenAI announces ads for ChatGPT (even on paid tiers), their CFO floats taking cuts from drug discoveries (seriously), and Google publicly dunks on them for it. Also – the Still Relevant Australia Tour is coming, and our LinkedIn group hit 200 members (we're basically LinkedIn influencers now too).

    It's 2026 and everyone's having an existential crisis. In this episode, we unpack the two camps dominating AI C/Twitter: hype boys claiming "Claude Code can do my washing" vs. software developers doom-scrolling themselves into career panic. We put the agentic hype to the test and discover that no, you can't actually run 8 agents recreating your local business ecosystem while you sleep. Plus, we reflect on why MCP is exhausting, why Gemini 3 Pro is somehow worse than Gemini 2.5 Pro, and why Geoffrey Hinton would rather write his book than answer questions in Tasmania. Also featuring: the $200,000/month enterprise AI problem, why SaaS isn't dead (but it's scared), and our prediction that AI workspaces will become the everything app.

    CHAPTERS:

    00:00 Intro - Unpacking the 2026 AI Vibes
    02:21 Putting Claude Code and Agentic Hype to the Test
