Teens have a new pastime: Talking to bots. Caller Josh says his child’s obsession with AI is not only out of hand, it’s inappropriate. Plus, the high-tech NBA gambling scandal, Amazon’s big layoffs and smart fridge ads. I also talk with YouTuber Ian Runkle about a lock company that sued an influencer for picking its lock (and got roasted).
