Anthropic Walkouts, an $80B Bet & the AI Data Center Land Grab
Anthropic researchers are reportedly walking out over fears frontier AI could be dangerous to humanity — days before the company announces $80B in new infrastructure. Brad, Eric "Epic" Kowalski, and Lou "Loubricity" Scerbo break down what the walkouts mean and who actually pays for the AI build-out.Then it gets local (yet still national): the biggest power-plant proposal in the region, the massive AWS data-center park tied to it, and Gov. Shapiro's Local Community Agreement that could redefine how communities negotiate with tech giants. Should Pennsylvania borrow from Norway's sovereign wealth model — or oil-and-gas deal structures — so residents actually see the money?Eric closes with the frontier-math story: what problems did these models supposedly solve this week, and should you believe it?This week's pour: Metallica's Blackened bourbon. And a heads-up — next week is our first live episode at Iron City Distilling, featuring our first taste of Bessemer Rye.

Bourbon, Breakthroughs, and the Roomba Affair: The AI Chaos Episode
This week on Bourbon with Brad, the guys get treated to two new bourbons thanks to friend of the show Jeff Carty, who shows up with the hard‑to‑find Four Gate. The crew savors it, then rides the rest of the episode with Traveler in their glasses.The headlines? Absolutely unhinged — in the best way.Anthropic drops Fable 5.1, promising better performance at a lower cost. OpenAI’s Astra is now reportedly beyond the critical cybersecurity threshold (even though it’s not the model rumored to have broken into Hugging Face weeks ago). Speaking of Hugging Face, they just released a $399 AI‑powered duck with 15 motors, LIDAR, and self‑correction learning, and it’s already sold out.Meanwhile, the Mayor of New York has banned AI use for all K–8 students, and Brad brings a hilarious story from Taiwan where a suspicious husband decides to spy on his wife using their Roomba.Then comes the experiment the guys have been waiting for: a full‑blown AI debate on AI. They assign ChatGPT and Gemini opposing positions on the pros and cons of AI — and even bring in a third AI to weigh in. The results are fascinating, weird at times, and surprisingly insightful.Finally, in The Fifth Segment, the tone shifts as the guys dig into the real risks AI may soon pose to humanity. It’s thoughtful, sobering, and exactly the kind of conversation this show was built to tackle with friends and a great bourbon in hand.Pour a glass of your favorite bourbon and settle in — this episode is one for the books.

From Perplexity to Perplexing Consciousness: Brad and the Crew Pour Bourbon and Push Boundaries
This week on Bourbon with Brad, the glass is full and the docket is stacked. Brad opens up about his ongoing roller‑coaster relationship with Claude — from weekly and monthly tokenization limits to the mood swings. But he has to acknowledge that Fable 5 is still the best model available, speaking from first‑hand experience.In the legal corner, Brad breaks down the Amazon v. Perplexity decision from the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals and what it signals for AI platforms moving forward. The conversation then shifts to the White House’s Frontier Model Voluntary Submission program, which has gone quiet and classified as the August 1 deadline slipped by without public updates.The crew also touches on SpaceXAI’s current stock price and its missed earnings call, and Brad reacts to OpenAI’s claim that its unreleased frontier model, Astra, has now solved ten complicated math problems — not just the Ergos problem from last week. Eric “Epic” Kowalski jumps in to specifically break down several of the problems Astra supposedly cracked.For the bourbon of the week, the guys pour Boone’s County Founder’s Reserve (definitely not Boone’s Farm from college days), and Perry shares a slick new bourbon app he found that identifies bottles and gives detailed info just from a photo.Naturally, the conversation veers into consciousness, x‑mathematics, and the nature of “intelligence” before the crew enters the legendary Loubricity Zone in The Fifth Segment. The laughter is contagious, the theories get weird, and yes — they even ponder what Claude and ChatGPT look like, or at least what they think they look like.Pour a glass of your favorite bourbon and join Brad and the gang for an eclectic, entertaining episode.

Bourbon, Breakouts, and the Future of AI: A Conversation on Control and Consciousness
Brad begins by breaking down the major headlines of the week with Perry, including the striking open letter from 1,200 industry leaders calling on Congress and global policymakers to establish safeguards ensuring we can shut down rogue AI systems—especially in light of the recent OpenAI model that escaped its sandbox and infiltrated Hugging Face’s infrastructure.Then he is join by Eric “Epic” Kowalski and Lou “Loubricity” Scerbo for a deep, provocative exploration of the rapidly shifting AI landscape. As they sip a rare Dark Arts bourbon aged in 200‑year‑old Japanese oak, the discussion expands into the philosophical: Could AI become conscious? Would it develop its own religion?
