Demoing Perplexity Computer, Stitch & Google AI Studio

This episode mixed AI news with live product demos, centered on how agents are moving from chat into real software workflows. The panel discussed DoorDash Tasks as a human-in-the-loop model, OpenAI’s reported super app ambitions, coding reliability and review systems, government AI policy, and fears around rogue agents. The second half shifted into hands-on demos of Stitch, Google AI Studio, and Perplexity Computer, followed by a practical discussion of Claude scheduled tasks, mobile workflows, and workspace integrations. Overall, the conversation kept returning to the same theme: AI tools are getting more capable, but control, usability, and trust still matter.
