Sam Altman said this two years ago. He's like, if your product doesn't get better every time our model gets smarter, we will steamroll you. Our model, our generally capable model will just do what your silly little SaaS company does, or we'll build it to do that. So they're not even hiding the fact that that's what they're doing. Welcome to The Artificial Intelligence Show, the podcast that helps your business grow smarter by making AI approachable and actionable. My name is Paul Roetzer. I'm the Founder and CEO of SmarterX and Marketing AI Institute, and I'm your host. Each week, I'm joined by my co-host and SmarterX Chief Content Officer, Mike Kaput. As we break down all the AI news that matters and give you insights and perspectives that you can use to advance your company and your career. Join us as we accelerate AI literacy for all.
Welcome to episode 224 of The Artificial Intelligence Show. I'm your host, Paul Roetzer, along with my co-host, Mike Kaput.
We are recording Monday, July 6th after the holiday weekend. Mike and I didn't even literally talk before we started recording. So Mike, hope you had a great holiday weekend.

**Mike Kaput** (1:13)
Same to you, Paul.

**Paul Roetzer** (1:14)
It's been a mad dash for me this morning getting everything situated.
So yeah, it's good to be back after the holidays. We have a lot of interesting stuff. I think maybe some new models this week. We've got some stuff related to the government. This might be maybe Mike, we're going to take a week off of Anthropic versus the government after this week. But we have one.

**Mike Kaput** (1:39)
Ideally, I think Anthropic wants to do that too.

**Paul Roetzer** (1:42)
Yeah, I think it's like the final chapter of Book 1 maybe, and then we're going to be into Book 2 All right. So quick question. When's the last time you actually clicked on a search result instead of just reading the AI summary, that shift is happening right now, and most brands have no idea how they show up in it. SiteImprove is the Gentic content intelligence platform that helps marketing teams track, optimize, improve performance across both traditional and AI driven search. So we are thankful for SiteImprove for continuing to sponsor The Artificial Intelligence Show, and you can grab a free AEO check at siteimprove.com/aipod.
And this episode is also brought to us by AI for Business Bootcamp by SmarterX, which is happening in Columbus on July 16, Mike. So you and I have one week basically to get ready for this, right?

**Mike Kaput** (2:36)
Yes.

**Paul Roetzer** (2:37)
Oh, man. All right. Well, the good news is Mike and I run these workshops all the time. So it's constantly iterating on what we've done before. So we're not having to create from scratch. But Mike and I will both be busy this week finalizing our presentations for this live in-person event. This is a single day event from 8.3 to 5.30. It is a single track, so you get all of it with one admission price. It's built for professionals and leaders who are ready to accelerate AI adoption and value creation. The day is going to start with a State of AI for Business keynote that I will present. It's then going to transition into interactive workshops. The first one is going to be led by Mike. This is before lunch, AI Productivity Workshop. And then after lunch, I am going to lead an AI Innovation Workshop. So this is going to be an amazing day not only to participate in the workshops, but to share with each other, inspire each other, learn from other AI forward practitioners and leaders. And again, all condensed into a single day on July 16th in Columbus, Ohio at the Hilton Columbus at Easton. AI Academy master members get discounted pricing, so make sure to take advantage of that. And then podcast listeners can get an extra $100 off of a ticket with the promo code POD100. So just go to smartrx.ai and click on events and get registered for the AI for Business Bootcamp with me and Mike in Columbus on July 16th. Okay.
AI Pulse. If you're new to the podcast, every week when we do these weekly episodes, we start off with a Pulse survey. This is an informal poll of our listeners, where we ask a couple of questions related to the previous week's episode. So last week, we said, how should the US government handle the release of powerful new AI models? This is going to be relevant to today's episode as well.
Forty-three percent said light review, but no release delays.
Interesting. Twenty-five percent said let companies release them freely. Okay. So that's 67 percent who are basically light to no government involvement.
