RIP Trifold | The Vergecast
David and Nilay start the show by exploring the increasing disconnect between the people who make AI products, and the people who keep saying they don’t want them. (Or, at least, don’t want to pay for them.) The AI industry is starting to retrench to a business-first approach, because there’s simply no killer app for it yet. Speaking of no killer apps!
