Google Gemini is my new AI girlfriend?! AI usage skyrockets, jobs getting replaced, 2.5 Pro goes GA
Google Gemini is Getting Too Personal? AI Work Use Doubles, Jobs at Risk, and Gemini 2.5 Goes GA Is your smart speaker flirting with you? This week on They Might Be Self-Aware, Hunter and Daniel dive into the latest wave of AI creepiness and capability—starting with Daniel’s increasingly intimate relationship with Google Gemini. From playful voice commands turning oddly suggestive to Gemini’s new context-crushing memory, we explore how personal AI has really become. But that's just the start: * AI usage at work has nearly doubled in two years—what that means for productivity (and job security). * Gemini 2.5 Pro is now GA, and its massive context window changes everything for code, video, and research. * Are scrum masters the next role to be automated? Daniel shows how AI already handles project tracking better than humans. * Claude and Gemini play Pokémon—but they PANIC under pressure?! What AI “behavior” reveals about human mimicry. * Subscription chaos: the rise of AI pricing bundles and why \$200/month plans are everywhere. We also unpack real-world AI adoption stats, the economics of niche data sets, and what Google’s latest experiments mean for everyday users—plus a few classic existential jokes along the way. --- * 🎧 Listen on your favorite platform: * Official Website: https://tmbsa.tech * All Links (Linktree): https://linktr.ee/tmbsa * 🎧 Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3EcvzkWDRFwnmIXoh7S4Mb?si=3d0f8920382649cc * 📱 Subscribe on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/they-might-be-self-aware/id1730993297 --- #AIgirlfriend #Gemini2.5 #AIreplacingjobs #TheyMightBeSelfAware #AInews #OpenAI #GoogleGemini #Claude #AIpanic Like what you hear?
