Dagen 0:08 ↗

Color us shocked. There appears to have been a massive vibe shift from last night's commercial from the big game. Woke wars, so 2020, beneath halftime show hogwash, 2026 brought us good old American values. Begin for starters, a wholesome faith with your football.

Commercial Voiceover 0:32 ↗

I believe God called me to be a coach, and I listen to Him. And I thank Him. We're incredibly blessed to be Seahawks, to be 12, now world champions.

God always had a plan bigger than anything I imagined. He has been there for me.

He died on the cross for our sins, and God has a unique journey for each of us. Each of us.

He died on that cross for us. We came to this world to serve.

Key Quotes (2)

“The A.I. bubble, narrative, whatever you want to call it, is real as it is in the media. Broadly in Silicon Valley, everyone is focused on artificial intelligence. And even if they are three degrees of separation, they are now talking about A.I. very seriously. And the competition is really heating up. Many people might know that Google has a serious investment, they've heard of OpenAI and Anthrop”

▶ 5:38 POLICY

“I think people are not worried about Google too much because they have so much traffic. People are still using Google search. There was a moment a year ago where people thought that everyone would switch to ChatGPT from Google, it has not happened. And Google has a great A.I. team, they have tons of brands. They will scale that out.”

About Jordi Hays

Jordi Hays, co-founder and co-host of the tech talk show TBPN, has continued to appear on the program's daily live episodes, which stream weekdays on X and YouTube. Recent shows have covered topics including Tesla's unveiling of a rocket-powered Roadster, Anthropic's investor day revenue figures, and the release of new AI models. During these segments, Hays offered commentary on the tech industry, such as describing Elon Musk as "simultaneously Thomas Edison and Barnum & Bailey," and discussed the financial performance of AI companies, noting that Anthropic's quarterly revenue growth, while substantial, did not meet some market expectations. He also shared personal experiences, including using AI coding tools to modify video games and reviewing films like "You Can See Everything." In addition to on-air commentary, Hays has been involved in the show's business operations, describing the Ultradome studio as a "handmade" production requiring daily effort to improve. He has also promoted the show's newsletter and sponsorships. The program has featured guests such as Sam Altman, Mark Zuckerberg, and Neal Stephenson, and has been described by The New York Times as "Silicon Valley's newest obsession." Hays has also discussed industry trends, including the use of AI in hiring and the scale of global alcohol spending relative to AI infrastructure investment.
