Michael, Andy and Michael get things started with Michael R’s annual edu-cation, Apple’s World Wide Developer Conference. Then the team turns to a news story about tricking Meta’s support chatbot into granting access to Instagram accounts. This is not a new tactic – check out e429 for a link to try this out for yourself with lakera.ai‘s Gandalf game. Next up is a data visualization for data centers across the United States. And then, a solution for the energy needs of a data center: CrankGPT. And harkening back to the earlier chatbot trickery, there’s a GitHub repo to get Chipotle’s chatbot Pepper to write python code and more. Then, the team considers an article from The Atlantic that spells out a contrarian view that this is in fact the best time for a computer science degree. A new robotics story captured the team’s attention – the LeRobot Humanoid. Hugging Face developed this robotic set of legs as an accessible, low cost, open humanoid (well, humanoid legs) robot. Another intriguing maker project is a 3D book that has printed on it’s pages the machine code needed to fabricate itself. Wrapping up the episode, the team takes a look at some of the newest LEGO sets featuring Gaudi’s architecture and SmartPlay sets featuring Nintendo’s Pokemon.

It’s unclear how many Instagram users were hacked due to this flaw.
