Today’s episode is packed. OpenAI quietly shipped a system that tries to guess your age, Nvidia lost billions in a single day, and Anthropic found a strange internal switch that controls how “assistant‑like” an AI behaves. Some of this is genuinely surprising… and a little unsettling.

We’ll talk about:

• OpenAI’s new “age prediction” system inside ChatGPT and why this moment matters
• Nvidia’s 4.4% drop and the warning that the AI honeymoon might be ending
• Anthropic’s Assistant Axis - the hidden mechanism that stops models from drifting into weird personas
• The growing tension at Davos and what Big Tech is really doing behind the scenes
