Hi, I'm Connor with Honor - message me here!

The last 10 days dropped more AI news than most industries see in a year. Listen as I break it all down in plain English for regular people, not tech billionaires. Both sides of every story, the truth in the middle, and where each one goes 1 month, 6 months, 1 year, and 5 years out. Recorded Friday, July 17, 2026, from Santa Clarita, California.

I am Connor MacIvor. I do not just talk about AI. I deploy it every day in real businesses: real estate, voice AI, and software. Every story here is translated to what it means for your life, your job, and your family.

In this episode:

- The model flood: GPT 5.6, Google Gemini 3.5 Pro, xAI Grok 4.5, and Anthropic Claude Sonnet 5, plus what tokens and context windows really mean.

- OpenAI's offer to hand the US government a 5 percent stake worth around $42 billion.

- The jobs number: 87,714 cuts blamed on AI in 5 months, and the truth underneath it.

- The $725 billion question: real buildout, or a bubble built on circular deals?

- The agents are here, and most of them are wide open to attack.

- OpenAI's first hardware: a screenless, moving ChatGPT speaker built with Jony Ive.

- The hidden cost: why the AI boom could land on your power bill.
