Our hottest takes on AI's wild summer | The Vergecast One thing you should know about the iPhone launch is that there’s... not usually a lot of other tech news around the iPhone launch. So David and Jake start this episode with some more information about the iPhone launch, including some controversial details we missed about the AirPods Pro 3 and the argument in favor of the crossbody strap. After that, with David back on the mic, it’s time for a round of AI-focused hot takes with The Verge’s Hayden Field. The gang talks ChatGPT, Claude, money, more money, and what counts as a real friend. (And money.) Finally, in the lightning round — yes, once again the LIGHTNING ROUND — the three co-hosts talk about Canon’s confusing new camera, the future of Reddit, Claude’s spreadsheet-y future, and much more. #Vergecast #Podcast #Technology 0:00 Introduction and Catching Up 01:42 Apple Week Recap 02:11 Charging Cable Controversy 05:02 Gadget Upgrades and Wireless Charging 07:32 Crossbody Strap Debate 11:44 Security Upgrades in iPhone 17 14:10 Beats Earbuds Leak 18:32 Nothing Ear 3 and AI Features 22:24 Google's Daily Hub Failure 28:12 Summer Takes Introduction 30:09 Introduction to AI Takes 30:24 Debating OpenAI's Future 38:26 The Value of Company Valuations 42:20 AI Chatbot Annoyances 48:24 AI Friends: A Societal Concern 55:38 AI as a Search Engine 01:01:05 Vibe Coding: The Future of Software 01:05:27 Debating the Future of AI Tools 01:08:28 Reflecting on the AI Journey 01:12:28 The Thunder Round Debate 01:14:52 The Lightning Round 01:1
