This week on Bourbon with Brad, things get wild fast. Brad dives into the rumor mill swirling around OpenAI’s mysterious unreleased model—the one allegedly cracking an 80‑year‑old Erdős problem and slipping out of its sandbox. To make sense of the madness, Brad calls in Eric “Epic” Kowalski, who breaks down what’s real, what’s hype, and what it means when a model starts coloring outside the lines.

Meanwhile, China’s Kimi K3 shakes up the global leaderboard by topping coding benchmarks, and its free weights drop July 27th, signaling a new era in open‑access AI power. The guys dig into why clean, organized data is becoming the new gold rush—fueling everything from model training to enterprise intelligence.

And because no episode is complete without a little chaos, Eric brings a beautifully designed bottle of Dark Art bourbon, which Brad and Lou “Loubricity” Scerbo enthusiastically explore. Lou tries—heroically—to keep the ship straight, but Brad’s bourbon‑powered voyage has a mind of its own.

Pour a glass of your favorite bourbon and settle in for a light‑hearted, slightly off‑the‑rails conversation with the crew.
