S1E10 - The death of cheap tech
Published: June 26, 2026
Duration: 1:15:06
On this week's show, Stephen and Daniel talk about how the rise of AI is killing cheap tech, and that may not be entirely a bad thing (though it's still mostly a bad thing). They talk about the Steam Machine's exorbitant price, and how intra-generational price increases have never really happened like this. Unprecedented times, indeed. Finally, they talk about forming human bonds with AI and how to negotiate that strange and uncomfortable place.
Oh, and there's a bit of talk at the beginning about bowling. If you want to avoid that, skip ahead to 7:39.
