Highlights
Meta's "Muse" and the state of consumer AI.
Asia opened the news dump with Meta's new image generator from its Superintelligence Lab, plus fresh AI effects for Instagram Stories — while candidly warning that the existing Instagram AI is not worth your time.
Anthropic's guardrail problem.
Asia reported "Mythos" returning with intense guardrails; Flick later clarified the mechanics 20:10: Mythos is the gated enterprise model, while the public "Fable 5" has a classifier that screens inputs/outputs and bails to an older model. The result — banned bee-fart questions and a coding assistant that finds a bug then refuses to fix it. 21:24
Codex as the pragmatic pick.
Asia praised Codex for organizing files for Famous Magazine — "you're creating your second brain almost" — and contrasted ChatGPT's consistency against what she called Claude's "crazy credit limit scam." 6:23
AI safety report cards.
Asia relayed grades where no company earned an A: Anthropic led with a C, OpenAI dropped from A to C, Google DeepMind third, Meta a D+, and XAI (rebranded "Space X AI") an F. 11:00
The age of DAO drains.
Flick's set piece: someone bought ~4.4M BONK, met the 1% quorum, proposed an airdrop that also handed themselves the treasury, and voted yes — only seven people voted — netting ~$20M. He tied it to ENS Labs receiving ~$350M from the ENS DAO. 16:35
Saying the quiet part out loud.
Flick admitted the Fame team had effectively drained its own DAO into a multisig, citing member disengagement and the DAO platform sunsetting. Jilly's dry aside: "you don't always have to say the quiet part out loud, right?" 19:53
GPT-5.6's crypto-flavored names.
Flick noted the rumored 5.6 models are named Sol, Terra, and Luna, spinning into a recap of the 2022 Terra/Luna algorithmic stablecoin collapse and the FTX/Binance fallout. 24:00
Who's actually made a billion in crypto.
Answer: Trump. Flick detailed ~$1.2B in filed crypto gains — ~$600M in LP/trading fees off the Trump meme coin, ~$600M from World Liberty Financial holdings. Jilly added that the meme coin launch "pretty much signaled the top." 35:14
The anniversary auction.
Jilly announced the headline event: a Coolhurst-created replica of the #1 Fame Lady, backed by 1M FAME, auctioned with all proceeds donated to The Exodus Road to fight human trafficking. The original #1 sold for 28 ETH (~$80K) in 2021; Jilly and Serena later bought it to keep it inside the collection. 39:40

Notable quotes
We work in tandem together, but I don't need AI to wipe my ass.
Every now and then a hallucination will pop up, and then you gotta smack that bitch back into place.
You don't always have to say the quiet part out loud, right?
Well, that would be Trump, of course.
It's all the full donation is going to fight human trafficking while your piece of art will continue to be backed by one million fame tokens.
It's a really super special piece... this will be, as far as I know, his only fame society art piece.
Who said what
- Asia (@byasiaminor* — Opened the show and drove the AI news segment: Meta Muse, Anthropic guardrails, Codex workflows for Famous Magazine, safety report cards, the OpenAI/Trump stake rumor, and the Figma/Bud acquisition.
- Flick (@0xFlick* — The crypto and deep-AI desk: DAO drains (Bonk, ENS, and Fame's own), Fable 5/Mythos internals, GPT-5.6 naming, Terra/Luna and Trump crypto earnings, GLM 5.2, and miners pivoting to AI data centers.
- Jilly (@JillyRappaport* — Mostly quiet until the close, then delivered the anniversary auction announcement, the #1 Fame Lady's history, and the charitable framing around The Exodus Road.
Worth a full listen
- 15:19–19:53 Flick's DAO-drain walkthrough is the meatiest stretch; the mechanics of the Bonk exploit and his frank admission about the Fame DAO's own move to a multisig don't fully land in summary.
- 23:59–28:07 A tidy, off-the-cuff history lesson on Terra/Luna and FTX plus a genuinely useful primer on quantized open-weight models like GLM 5.2 and their RAM demands.
- 37:50–43:00 The full auction announcement, including the origin story of Coolhurst's piece and why it's a one-off for the collection — worth hearing directly if you might bid.
