From rogue AI behaviors to Google Gemini's web-building skills, this week's 10 Minute Teacher Podcast is your fast, fun roundup of the most classroom-worthy education and technology news! 🎙️

Today I'm sharing 15 surprising, hilarious, and serious updates that every teacher and school leader should know—from “GPT tennis” in schools to an AI that tried to be your spiritual guide (yikes - not just yikes but WATCH OUT).

Plus, I give a celebratory hat tip to long time blogger and teacher, Larry Ferlazzo, in his retirement.

I also explain why people are typing nonsense into Google and asking for "meanings" and how this can be a great lesson to use to share the limitations of Google Gemini or any generative AI tool.

Highlights Include:

The Rise of MCP (Model Context Protocol): A new open standard that could revolutionize how your AI connects with school tools.
AI Agent in Windows 11: Microsoft’s AI now helps manage your settings—what this means for edtech.
Gemini 2.5 Builds Better Websites (and Raises Questions): Why we still need humans to supervise AI creation.
Don't Play "GPT Tennis": A warning about lazy AI practices in schools.
How AI Is Messing With Spirituality: The wildest (and weirdest) AI news this week.
Bonus Insight: A hilarious viral phrase—"You can’t lick a badger twice"—and what it teaches us about AI hallucinations.
