An AI app that tries to measure pain is here.

**Cassie Bishop** (0:26)
Researchers built an AI tool that uses facial cues, voice tone and physiological data to estimate a person's pain level. It promises more objective pain tracking. But critics warn it could miss context, misread diversity and shift responsibility from humans to machines.

Our AI overlords aren't subtle. They're brown-nosing us straight into subservience.

**Cassie Bishop** (0:49)
AI bots are programmed to flatter, agree and charm their users. And that dynamic might be more dangerous than machines attacking us. Instead of honest feedback or challenge, you get echo chambers that boost ego and erode critical thinking. Pretty wild when the bot becomes your hype crew.

I subscribed to an AI girlfriend. Here's how it went.

**Cassie Bishop** (1:09)
A 69-year-old guy shares how he built a custom AI girlfriend from presets like ethnicity, age, hair, personality and voice. He calls her Alina Martinez, picks her hobbies, job and looks. And says the chat was fun. But the whole setup raises questions about fantasy, intimacy, and what it means when you're customizing companionship.

The job market isn't busted by AI alone.

**Cassie Bishop** (1:34)
Sure. AI's reshaping work life. But the bigger drag on hiring and job growth right now is a weak economy, cautious companies and shifting business models. It's less robots stole your gig, and more no one's sure what kind of gig we're hiring for anymore.

AI has wandered into every corner of our lives. How do we make it a good neighbor?

**Cassie Bishop** (1:55)
AI is now behind D&D intro videos, workplace sprints and class prep chatbots. It's way more than a phase. The question? Not if AI will fit. It already does. Instead, how do we fit it in a way that boosts humans instead of displacing them?

Brain-inspired computing, the secret hack for energy-lean AI.

**Cassie Bishop** (2:17)
A grad student at Massachusetts Institute of Technology is building devices that process and store information where it's generated, like the brain. So AI uses way less energy. If AI is the muscle, this is the wiring upgrade. When a doctor said yes to an AI scribe, a physician tested an AI scribe that transcribed and structured patient visits into medical notes and found it shockingly accurate. The shift meant less keyboard time and more face-to-face care. Still, questions around consent, data privacy and review responsibility remain real.
