Alex and Ellis break down the viral AI essay that tanked stocks and
debate whether agents could end white-collar work as we know it.
Then they’re joined by Reddit co-founder and CEO Steve Huffman to
talk about fighting AI slop, why Reddit has resisted becoming
traditional social media, and how the platform is navigating bots,
moderation, and creators. They discuss prediction markets, Reddit’s
anti-self-promotion culture, the challenge of onboarding new users,
local communities, government censorship pressure, age verification
laws in Australia, and Reddit’s AI data licensing deals with
companies like Google and OpenAI.
