EDITOR BRIEF
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman suggested parents could use ChatGPT Work to create personalized morning-drive podcasts based on family calendars and kids’ interests. The idea drew widespread mockery online, especially from “Gravity Falls” creator Alex Hirsch, who asked why parents would not simply talk to their children.
