Caleb and Adriele celebrate the Israel-Hamas ceasefire before catching up on the latest in the OpenAI debacle—including what the board shake-up meant for diversity in AI leadership. Plus, good news on the economy, new return to work data, and an answer to the question, “What is a restaurant?”

Then they go deep on AI and tech governance in light of the capitalists winning the fight over the direction of OpenAI. Next, Adriele takes a deep look at the state of diversity, equity, and inclusion at the end of 2023 in the aftermath of the Supreme Court’s decision on Affirmative Action this year.

All that, plus Google’s new geothermal energy project, and life expectancy is on the rise again!
