Today on the AI Daily Brief, why MULPOOK matters, even though it's not a bunch of agents trying to take over humanity.

The AI Daily Brief is a daily podcast and video about the most important news and discussions in AI.

All right, friends, quick announcements before we dive in.

It should take around two minutes. It's just multiple choice questions. And we're already seeing some really interesting data around which models people are using most and for what. Anyone who contributes to the survey will get results a week before I share them publicly. Again, you can find that at AIDailybrief.aI.
