May 19, 2026 · 1 h 10 min

Show notes

Tonight on GeekNights, we consider the problem of spam in the current era. We last talked about spam in 2007. (Note that spam is distinct from slop. In the news, Rym is back from Hong Kong, supply chain attacks remain a major threat, the kids are booing AI people at graduations, Musk lost his lawsuit against OpenAI, deepfake software is getting better, and Meta is laying off 10% of its entire workforce.
