    Black October: AI Agents in Our Bank Accounts and the PHP Hack

    23/10/2026 | 24 mins.
    In the last 48 hours, AI attacks have gone from one-off incidents to something much bigger. Major U.S. banks are detecting unauthorized AI agents inside customer accounts, and they can't tell them apart from humans. At the same time, two critical bugs in PHP, the language behind an estimated 70% of websites, leaked before the patch was out, and the NSA, the FBI and Japan's prime minister told organizations to take their systems offline. Ejaaz breaks down what's happening, how the PHP flaw was found by AI and kept secret for months, the hacking group that used Claude and Grok agents against more than 400 Latin American financial targets, and why open-source models are the ones fighting back.

    Then the bigger questions: who is behind it, why AI agents are so hard to trace, and the steps you can take today to protect yourself.

    AI Just Saved SpaceX: Record $14.6B Quarter, First Profit and a Tesla Merger

    22/10/2026 | 24 mins.
    Four months ago, half of Wall Street wrote off SpaceX's record IPO as massively overvalued. Last night it reported $14.6 billion in revenue in a single quarter and the first profit in its history. The surprise is where the money came from: AI. SpaceX has become the number one neocloud, renting compute to Anthropic and Google for billions of dollars a month, and its AI business now out-earns Starlink. Ejaaz breaks down the xAI pivot, how Elon brings 200,000 GPUs online a month, the power bottleneck, and Elon's projection of a $500 billion to $1 trillion annual run rate in 2027.

    Then the bigger picture: the SpaceX and Tesla merger committees, Starlink and StarMind, where Tesla's cars and Optimus robots fit, TeraFab's plan to build the biggest chip plant on Earth, and what could still go wrong.

    CoreWeave's Crash Looks Like 2008. Here's Why It Isn't.

    21/10/2026 | 22 mins.
    One chart and one five-letter reply ("Yikes") sent AI stocks into their longest losing streak since 2008, with CoreWeave's bond yield touching 15% and roughly $1.6 trillion knocked off chip stocks. Ejaaz breaks down what actually happened: how neoclouds like CoreWeave borrow to build data centers, why the market got spooked, and whether credit default swaps are really pricing a coin flip.

    Then the bear and bull case: debt coming due, customer concentration and the "bank of Nvidia" on one side; demand sold out past 2028, rising GPU rents and a power bottleneck that slows the build-out on the other. It looks like 2008. Here's why it isn't.

    Why Anthropic Is Giving Away 20% of Its Equity (And Why Everyone's Mad)

    20/10/2026 | 24 mins.
    Anthropic just pledged 5% of its shares to a new Public Benefit Fund, and with its founders' and employees' earlier pledges, roughly 20% of the company is now committed to "the public good." The fund could make "direct distributions to specific populations," and the reason why is more unsettling than the gift: Anthropic expects AI to disrupt a lot of jobs.
    Today we break down what UBI actually is, how Sam Altman, Dario Amodei and OpenAI got here, how Anthropic's fund works, why David Sacks, Palmer Luckey and Travis Kalanick are skeptical, Elon's plan to give every American kid a SpaceX share, and what a world on AI money could look like.

    Tesla's Flying Roadster Is Really About SpaceX

    19/10/2026 | 24 mins.
    Tesla finally unveiled the new Roadster, and it drove upside down on a ramp, flipped through the air and landed using SpaceX-developed thrusters. It's also the clearest look yet at what a Teslaโ€“SpaceX merger could build, and Barclays says that merger could be announced before December.
    Today we break down the three tricks behind the flying Roadster, why Elon is really building it, and the rest of the week in AI: Anthropic's slowing growth ahead of its IPO, Meta open-sourcing Muse Spark, and Google's Gemini 4 Argon.
