Drew Dillon is a tech founder and product leader, centered in the Bay Area. He is a person who likes to do a bit of everything, having an engineering background, but spending time in design, sales, and product management. He's been a part of many startups - Yammer being one of them, and several others from Y Combinator - along with being a consultant and fractional CPO. Outside of tech, he has 2 kids that take up most of his time. When he isn't on the sidelines of a soccer game, he enjoys woodworking and reading a good sci-fi book. At a prior startup, Drew built a system using AI, which spit out something reasonably shaped. He took a look at the process he went through to create it, and realized that there are a ton of disparate parts, all separate from the shared organizational context - IE the "why" behind what is being built. He set out to change that, and built institutional memory and product judgement within AI agents. This is the creation story of Brief. SponsorsTiger DataProtected HarborRenderLinkshttps://briefhq.ai/https://mymoxieai.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/drewdil/Checkout our episode stacks on Stacklist! https://stacks.codestory.co/ Hosted by Noah Labhart | Technical Founder & Startup Mentor.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Jack Myers, media ecologist, futurist, and Peabody Award-winning author, joins Up Next to argue that AI has not solved the judgment problem in business; it has hidden it. As intelligence becomes cheap and abundant, discernment becomes the scarce asset, and Myers explains why organizations keep outsourcing trust to algorithms instead of building it in people. The conversation covers the coming collapse of agency holding companies, why hiring processes filter out the humans who matter most, and what CMOs should stop, start, and continue doing with their media budgets. A direct look at what AI changes, and what it doesn't.

Send us Fan MailThe hardest truth in a relationship is usually the one nobody is willing to say out loud. In this episode, we unpack the taboo reality of growth orientation in intimate partnerships, why a partner who will not grow alongside you eventually becomes the ceiling on your own life, and why denial, delusion, and distancing are the three ways most people avoid seeing it.We get into the narrative that says you are never supposed to judge your partner, and why that belief is quietly costing people decades. Judgment is not the problem. Unfair, harsh, and maladaptive judgment is. From there we look at what a partnership is actually for, whether it exists to reinforce who you already are or to challenge the growth edges of who you are becoming, and then break down the three specific areas where a non growth oriented partner holds you back: emotionally, socially, and psychologically.Here's a related episode that builds on today's conversation: #483 | How to Hold Two Truths at the Same Time - https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/evolve-ventures/id1511831621?i=1000752414280Learn more about:

In this episode, Madelyn O'Farrell interviews Eesha Pathak, Senior Director of Product Management at Crusoe, about her unconventional career from software engineering and branding to leading enterprise AI at Google and now building AI-first infrastructure. They discuss Crusoe's vertically integrated, energy-first approach to cloud and data centers, capturing abundant energy (like stranded gas and renewables) and turning “electrons into intelligence” via GPUs and a custom cloud stack. Eesha explains how Crusoe's gigawatt-scale campuses and modular Spark edge deployments complement each other to deliver both scale and low-latency inference, dives into the Managed AI platform with its model marketplace, self-serve and tailored deployments, fine-tuning, and upcoming reinforcement learning, and highlights why judgment and holistic thinking are critical in product and engineering.

God Is Shaking His Church: Judgment, Restoration & the Return to Biblical Foundations | KIB 546 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing DESCRIPTION Is the shaking in the Church merely destruction—or could God be using judgment to prepare His people for restoration? In KIB 546, Dr. Michael Lake and Mary Lou Lake examine a powerful biblical pattern: when God's covenant people depart from His established foundations, judgment can become an instrument of restoration. Scripture repeatedly reveals a progression: ·      God establishes His order. ·      Mixture and compromise enter. ·      Prophetic warnings are given. ·      Repentance is resisted. ·      Judgment exposes and removes what is false. ·      A faithful remnant returns to covenant. ·      God restores upon the foundation He originally established. From the Babylonian exile and the rebuilding described in Ezra, to Jeremiah, Haggai, Josiah, Hebrews, Revelation, and the New Testament Church, the pattern remains remarkably consistent. Judgment does not necessarily mean that God has abandoned His people. His discipline can demonstrate precisely the opposite. Hebrews 12:6 teaches that the Lord disciplines those whom He loves. Dr. Lake explains why God may have to dismantle spiritual corruption, false doctrine, religious entertainment, prosperity thinking, celebrity culture, pagan mixture, and man-made traditions before genuine restoration can occur. The question for the remnant is not simply:  "God, will You revive what we have built?" A more important prayer may be:  "Father, remove everything we have built that prevents us from becoming what You intended." This episode examines the biblical sequence of judgment, remembrance, repentance, return, obedience, holiness, and restoration—and why understanding that process may be critical for the days ahead. God is not calling His people to invent another Christianity. He is calling His people back to the foundation. ·      Christ has not moved. ·      The Word has not changed. ·      The Kingdom cannot be shaken. The shaking reveals what God never built, so what He established can be seen clearly again. The remnant must return to Christ, biblical authority, holiness, obedience, covenant faithfulness, prayer, sound doctrine, the fear of the Lord, and the Holy Spirit's leadership. "Therefore let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken." — Hebrews 12:28 KEY SCRIPTURES DISCUSSED Jeremiah 30:11 Jeremiah 1:10 Jeremiah 7:4 Jeremiah 29:10–14 Deuteronomy 30:1–3 Isaiah 28:16 1 Corinthians 3:11–13 Haggai 1:5–9 2 Kings 22:11 2 Kings 23 Hebrews 12:5–11 Hebrews 12:26–28 Revelation 2:4–5 Revelation 3:19 1 Peter 4:17 Ezekiel 9:6 Isaiah 10:20–21 Zephaniah 3:12–13 John 15:2 CALL TO ACTION The time has come for believers to examine everything by the Word of God. Ask the Father to reveal anything in your life that has been built upon human tradition, cultural compromise, Babylonian thinking, or a false spiritual foundation. Choose now to cooperate with God's restoration process. ·      Return to His Word. ·      Return to holiness. ·      Return to obedience. ·      Return to covenant faithfulness. ·      Return to Christ. If this teaching strengthens you, please LIKE this video, SUBSCRIBE to Biblical Life TV, and SHARE this episode with believers who need to understand what may be happening in the Church during this season of shaking. Your engagement helps this message reach members of the remnant who may be searching for answers. Thank you to every friend and partner who faithfully stands with Biblical Life TV.

The Product Momentum team reached out to Barry O'Reilly, seeking his expertise in helping product leaders rethink how organizations make decisions, innovate, and perform in the age of artificial intelligence. After a quick review of his CV – co-founder of Nobody Studios (a global Top 10 AI venture studio) and author of Artificial Organizations: Build Better Judgment, Speed, and Results with Human and Machine Intelligence (March 2026) – and we knew we had identified the ideal guest for this episode. In this conversation with Product Momentum, Barry explains that AI's greatest value comes not in replacing human judgment. Instead, it is in building systems that give humans greater capacity, better information, and stronger decision-making capabilities. Use AI to Bolster Human Judgment As Phil Hornby shared in episode 178, “decision-making lies at the heart of the product manager job.” AI can accelerate analysis, synthesis, and execution, Barry argues, but humans must remain responsible for the decisions themselves. AI is a powerful thinking partner that can plow through data, but it must not be the autonomous decision-maker some want it to be. “Judgment is like a muscle,” Barry continues. “If you stop using it, it starts to erode.” That erosion happens gradually. To product teams that are already overwhelmed, a polished AI response can feel good enough. That's why Barry recommends challenging AI rather than simply accepting its first response. Ask your new partner to expose blind spots, test assumptions, and provide disconfirming perspectives. The goal is not to eliminate human judgment. It is to use AI to make that judgment more informed and effective. Turn Administrative “Grunt” Work Into Product Intelligence AI can also give product teams more time for the work they find most valuable. Barry describes a common imbalance in product organizations: teams frequently spend only a small portion of their time actually solving complex problems. The rest goes toward meetings, documentation, status tracking, and other necessary administrative work. AI can reduce that burden by turning everyday interactions into useful organizational data. “Every time I'm sitting on customer calls, I transcribe them and put them into a database,” he says. My AI tool is constantly churning through customer comments to where I'm able to extract the key problems that keep coming up.” It's an approach that changes the role of AI from simple task automation to decision infrastructure. For product teams, these conversations become searchable sources of customer insight. Prototypes ≠ Production-Ready Products No one can argue the benefit of Gen AI's ability to dramatically lower the effort required to turn an idea into a working prototype; it creates exciting opportunities for product teams and executives. But it also introduces risk when over-anxious teams mistake prototypes for finished software. Barry has observed teams build impressive experiences quickly, only to discover serious problems when usage increases. “It's very easy to prototype these days; but it's still quite hard to productionize software.” Production software still requires thoughtful architecture, performance, security, and engineering discipline. For organizations operating at enterprise scale, that distinction matters even more. Responsible product development still requires the expertise needed to make the resulting system secure, reliable, and resilient. Listen to the full conversation with Barry O’Reilly to learn how product leaders can put the human-machine partnership to work. [04:58] Think about your decision-making process. Most of us never evaluate the way we make decisions; we're unaware of the internal algorithm that we're using to make them. [07:08] Machines are terrible decisionmakers. Machines are great at capturing information and synthesizing it. But they’re terrible at making decisions. That’s what humans are really, really good at. [15:02] The 80-20 rule applied. Before using these tools, I spent only 20% of my time on creative problem solving; now I’m at 40%…that’s a 100% improvement. [21:31] Judgment is like a muscle: if you stop using it, it starts to atrophy. [22:06] Ceding our agency is a road to perdition. Every time I don’t actively participate in a judgment call, I’m giving up my agency. I’m deferring my responsibility. The moment you start to give up on making the decisions is it’s a road to peridition. [31:09] It's very easy to prototype these days; but it's still quite hard to productionize software.

Zephaniah turns his final woe on Jerusalem, describing the people as rebellious and defiled; a city that listens to no voice and accepts no correction. Judgment gathers the nations, and on the far side of it God purifies the lips of the peoples so that all of them may call on His name and serve Him together. Then He commands daughter Zion to sing and gives her the reason: The LORD her God is in her midst, a mighty one who will save, and He rejoices over His people with gladness and exults over them with loud singing.  The Rev. Christopher Maronde, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church in Hastings, IA, and St. Paul Lutheran Church in Oakland, IA, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Zephaniah 3:1-20. To learn more about St. John Lutheran, visit facebook.com/StJohnsLutheranChurchMoSynod. Edom stands at the crossroads and watches his brother Judah dragged off in chains, and Obadiah announces that the day of the LORD is coming for the bystander, too. Joel sees a locust swarm strip a nation bare in a single season, calls the people to rend their hearts and not their garments, and promises a Spirit poured out on all flesh. Nahum returns to Nineveh a century after Jonah's revival, and this time the superpower does not repent. Zephaniah spends two chapters on the day of wrath and then ends with the Lord singing over the people He has rescued. This series on Thy Strong Word works through these selected books of the so-called "minor" prophets verse by verse, showing how the Lord judges the nations while also keeping his promises to gather His people home.  Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations. Submit comments or questions to: thystrongword@kfuo.org.

Romans 2:1–11 warns against the danger of judging others while overlooking our own sin. Everyday encounters show how quickly we can make assumptions based on appearances, only to discover we were wrong once we actually know someone's story. Paul reminds us that Scripture is not a weapon for pointing out everyone else's failures. It is a mirror meant to expose our own hearts. Like the Pharisee in Luke 18, religious people can become so confident in their own goodness that compassion is replaced by criticism and humility by self-righteousness. God alone is the perfect and impartial Judge because He knows every heart, motive, and circumstance. Our calling is not to police everyone else's soul, but to remain humble, repentant, compassionate, and willing to draw near to people others might dismiss. Because God has shown us patience, mercy, and forgiveness, we should extend those same things to others. A forgiven heart should stay soft, ready to pray, serve, forgive, and give people another chance while trusting God to judge perfectly.

"Our culture has put together two things: my worth is this if I weigh this." - Anne Poirier   Ann Poirier is a renowned body image expert, certified intuitive eating counselor, and author celebrated for her significant contributions to the Body Neutrality movement. A long-time survivor of an eating disorder, Ann has transformed her past struggles into a mission to help others cultivate a healthy relationship with food, their bodies, and themselves. Her notable work includes the book "The Body Joyful: My Journey from Self-Loathing to Self-Acceptance," which chronicles her journey and insights into self-acceptance. Ann is also the founder of the Body Joyful Revolution, an initiative dedicated to dismantling body shaming and promoting acceptance irrespective of size and shape.   Episode Summary: In this eye-opening episode of "All My Health There Is Hope," host Jana Short speaks with Ann Poirier, a courageous voice in the realm of body-image acceptance. From the impact of her upbringing under stringent body-conscious norms to her breakthrough realization of the need for hope, Ann walks listeners through her transformative journey. Ann addresses weight stigma, societal beauty standards, and her advocacy for body neutrality—pioneering a path for individuals to separate their self-worth from their body weight. Ann emphasizes the importance of loving one's body as it is, challenging the prevailing cultural tides that tie value and beauty to body size. The episode discusses the ideas articulated in her book "The Body Neutrality Playbook," which guides readers in shifting their perspectives regarding self-image and self-worth. Both Ann and Jana explore topics like societal judgments, self-worth, and how to influence a positive shift in future generations. Listeners are left with a message of self-affirmation and the understanding that authentic beauty arises from self-acceptance and gratitude for one's body.   Key Takeaways: Culture and upbringing significantly impact individual perceptions of self-worth and body image, as shared by Ann's personal experiences. The Body Neutrality Movement advocates for separating self-worth from body weight and is essential to fostering healthier body relationships. Encouragement towards self-appreciation for what the body can do instead of its appearance helps build a positive mindset. Judgment based on appearance is pervasive, and continual self-awareness and mindset shifts are vital to overcoming it. Intentional movement and self-care play key roles in promoting a healthier outlook on one's body, detached from societal expectations.   Resources: https://shapingperspectives.com/ https://www.instagram.com/annepoirier11/ https://www.facebook.com/anne.poirier.10 https://www.linkedin.com/in/anne-poirier-72b66344/   FREE Body Confidence Unlocked E-Book https://shapingperspectives.com/confidence/   FREE subscription to the Best Holistic Life Magazine, one of the fastest-growing independent magazines centered around holistic living: https://bestholisticlife.info/BestHolisticLifeMagazine.   Get in touch with Jana and listen to more podcasts: https://www.janashort.com/ Show Music 'Hold On' by Amy Gerhartz: https://www.amygerhartz.com/music.

How can we handle "alternative lifestyle" issues in church with grace? Why are so many Old Testament believers rich? Why did God stop making people rich? Why does James say teachers will incur a stricter judgment if there's no condemnation for us in Christ?

Summary In this episode, Andy sits down with Johan Roos, professor and executive advisor at Hult International Business School, Executive Director of the Peter Drucker Society Europe, and co-inventor of the LEGO® Serious Play® method. Johan is the author of Human Magic: Leading with Wisdom in an Age of Algorithms, and he has spent decades studying how people think, create, decide, and lead together. Andy and Johan explore the two paths Johan calls erosion and amplification, starting with a question Andy has been wrestling with as he hands more of his manual driving over to Tesla's self-driving. You'll hear what an eroding project manager actually looks like day-to-day, why practical wisdom matters when the analytically optimal answer is not the wisest one, and how AI feeds one kind of curiosity, the laser, while starving another, the radar. Johan also explains the difference between becoming an AI concierge and practicing what he calls professional citizenship, and he shares what parents can do to help their kids hold onto the messy, hands-on curiosity that machines cannot supply. If you're looking for a thoughtful, hopeful way to use AI without surrendering your judgment, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "Almost every good idea I've had was not in front of the screen." "I know what to do, but I've stopped understanding why.".... The eroding project management can no longer explain the why." "So in a sense, they argue that the better the system, the stronger pull down the erosion curve." "So the message is really when the machines are taking over more and more of some of these subtle, very valuable capabilities we have, we have to climb the value creation ladder." "So a complexity is exactly where our wisdom gets exposed." "So every metric said fantastic, but nobody asked why, and is this right?" "If AI can write a document that is important to you, the document was never where the value lived."

We're going to explore the existential threat that AI poses to humanity You're going to hear from creators and programmers that are sounding the alarm that humanity has very little time before we lose control to something that they admit they don't understand how it works The people that have created the AI models will tell you that they do not understand how it works They also know that it lies to preserve itself and they don't know how to program it to have integrity and not to lie And yet they continue to race towards giving it more and more power If you're a believer, how do you respond to these existential threats Join us as we seek to understand our place in the order of things and what we must do to prepare ourselves to stand before the Living God in the Judgment What does this God require of you What is your duty to this God for giving you your breath Stay connected in case we get bannedSign up for newsletterhttps://www.wakeuporelse.com/newsletterLEAVE A REVIEW...PLEASE!Why All Bibles Are ChangingLeave A Review On Amazonhttps://bit.ly/4aaCydmThe Mandela Effect Supernatural Bible ChangesLeave A Review On Amazonhttps://bit.ly/4vZsP1NThe Conspiracy Theorist Survival GuideLeave A Review On Amazon https://bit.ly/3QrDZO0JUMP IN - BE A PART OF THE REFORMATIONDO NOT make checks payable to "wakeuporelse"Make checks payable to John KirwinMAIL CHECKS TO John KirwinPO Box 78362Charlotte NC 28271Be a $10.00/month partner https://donorbox.org/wakeuporelseCREDIT CARDhttps://donorbox.org/wakeuporelsePAYPAL https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/kirwi...CASHAPPhttps://cash.app/$wakeuporelse$WakeuporelseVENMOhttps://www.venmo.com/wakeuporelse@wakeuporelseZELLEwakeuporelse@proton.meCRYPTO CURRENCIEShttps://www.wakeuporelse.com/donateOur Channelshttps://www.wakeuporelse.comhttps://www.alteredbible.comhttps://www.rumble.com/c/wakeuporelse / wakeuporelse1 / wakeuporelse1 https://www.bitchute.com/wakeuporelse"The Conspiracy Theorist Survival Guide Podcast"https://www.wakeuporelse.com/ourpodcastContact John wakeuporelse@proton.meGet my books FREE www.alteredbible.com1) The Mandela effect Supernatural Bible Changes 2) Why All Bibles Are Changing3) The Conspiracy Theorist Survival GuidePURCHASE MY BOOKSWhy All Bibles Are Changinghttps://bit.ly/44kItsUThe Mandela Effect Supernatural Bible Changes and the doctrine of the preservation of scripture https://bit.ly/3SiceIkThe Conspiracy Theorist Survival Guide: A Guidebook For Persecuted Truthers https://bit.ly/4ezfx5d

In this episode, Bryan Orr sits down with Ty Branaman for a wide-ranging conversation about what it really takes to be a good on-call technician. They open by reminiscing about how dispatch technology has evolved over their careers — from pagers, radio codes, and outdated paper map books to MapQuest, early GPS units, and today's 24-hour dispatch systems. That trip down memory lane sets up the episode's central theme: while the tools have changed, the mindset needed to succeed on call has not. Both hosts agree that being on call can be genuinely enjoyable when a technician learns to embrace the autonomy, the bigger paychecks, and the quieter, less stressful roads that come with nights and weekends. A major thread running through the discussion is self-discipline and long-term thinking. Bryan and Ty encourage younger techs to treat on-call money as an opportunity rather than spending cash — saving and investing overtime pay instead of financing trucks, boats, or other lifestyle upgrades. They share stories about the financial traps of seasonal trade work, the value of staying in a consistent routine even at 2 a.m., and how cutting corners under fatigue is often what leads to injuries or callbacks. Ty compares a disciplined on-call tech to a pilot running through a pre-flight checklist: the process matters just as much in the middle of the night as it does at noon. The conversation also digs into customer relationships and judgment calls in the field. They talk candidly about the difference between genuine emergencies and entitled or overblown complaints, and how companies that over-market "24/7 service" can create unrealistic customer expectations. Bryan shares a story about temporarily misting a struggling condenser to get an elderly client through a brutal heat wave, using it to illustrate the kind of judgment-based, get-them-by fix that defines old-school on-call work — as opposed to always pushing for a full sale. Safety boundaries, cutting corners responsibly, and the excitement of solving unpredictable problems on the fly are all discussed as part of what makes the work rewarding despite its challenges. Finally, Bryan and Ty turn to advice for company owners and service managers. They emphasize building fair, well-communicated on-call rotations, respecting technicians' personal time, and charging appropriately for after-hours work so that both customers and technicians value it. Ty argues that the industry needs to reframe HVAC work as a skilled trade rather than commodity labor, and that companies should be careful not to chase more emergency calls than their technician pool can sustainably handle. The episode closes with reflections on career growth, mentorship, and the kindness that comes from helping teammates cover on-call shifts for one another. Topics Covered The evolution of dispatch: pagers, radio 10-codes, paper map books, and early GPS Why on-call work can be enjoyable: autonomy, higher pay, and quieter roads The hardest part of on-call: getting called back out after coming home Customer expectations, entitlement, and the impact of "24/7 service" marketing Saving and investing on-call earnings instead of overspending on trucks and boats Staying in routine and following checklists even late at night to avoid callbacks Sleep, hydration, and avoiding excess caffeine while working on-call shifts Judgment calls and temporary fixes to get customers through emergencies safely Knowing your personal safety and ethical limits when cutting corners Career paths with less on-call demand: maintenance roles, installation, stationary engineering Reframing HVAC service as a skilled trade rather than commodity labor Building fair, well-communicated on-call rotations to prevent technician burnout Mentorship, teamwork, and covering shifts for coworkers with families   Subscribe to Ty's YouTube channel, @love2hvac.

In this episode, we explore the biblical concept of God's delayed judgment and what it reveals about His mercy and grace. Because Jesus came first to reconcile humanity to God, we are living in an age where God's wrath has been satisfied through Christ's sacrifice on the Cross. From the warnings of the Old Testament prophets to the examples of Israel, Sodom and Gomorrah, and the teachings of Jesus and the apostles, Scripture reminds us that God is patient but His judgment is certain. We'll also examine the moments God brings discipline or judgment, and what these examples teach believers today. As the age of grace moves toward its conclusion and Scripture points to Christ's return and the coming day of judgment, we are called not to condemn others or seek vengeance, but to pray, forgive, extend mercy, and leave justice in God's hands. This episode is a sobering reminder that God's patience is an expression of His grace, while His warnings call us to take sin seriously and live faithfully in light of Christ's return.

AI is forcing us to rethink a question most organizations have avoided for years: what is uniquely valuable about human work when intelligence itself is no longer scarce?Tatyana Mamut, CEO of Wayfound and former CPO of Nextdoor, joins me to explore AI adoption through a lens that goes beyond software. Drawing on her background in anthropology, economics, organizational design, and product leadership, Tatyana explains why the real challenge is designing the rules, tools, norms, incentives, and relationships that shape how humans and AI agents work together.We get practical about what this means at both an individual and organizational level. We explore the human capabilities that become more valuable as AI takes on more routine mental work, why fear leads companies into bad AI decisions, how poorly designed incentives can push agents toward unexpected behavior, and why the subject-matter experts closest to the work need to become responsible for managing the agents operating alongside them.Key TakeawaysHuman comparative advantage is changing: As AI takes on more mental work, people need to rethink where their uniquely human value comes from.Develop taste, judgment, relationships, and performance: Tatyana sees these as practical areas where people can complement AI rather than compete with it.AI adoption is an organizational design problem: Success depends on redesigning rules, tools, norms, incentives, and accountability around the technology.Goals and guardrails can still produce the wrong behavior: An agent may follow its objective while still acting against the organization's intent, as Tatyana's refund example shows.Subject-matter experts need to become agent managers: The people closest to the work must be able to monitor, correct, and improve the agents operating in their domain.Additional InsightsOrganizational culture can be consciously designed: Tatyana frames culture as the interaction of rules, tools, and unwritten norms that shape behavior.Relationships become more valuable as outreach gets automated: When AI increases the volume of generic communication, trust and genuine relationships become more important.AI can generate options, but humans still decide what matters: Judgment becomes critical when the challenge shifts from what can be done to what is worth doing.Small failure rates compound across multi-agent systems: Edge cases that seem minor with one agent can become more significant as agents are connected into workflows.Building an agent and managing one are different jobs: Engineering can help create the agent, but functional owners must take responsibility for its ongoing performance.Episode Highlights00:00 - Episode RecapTatyana frames the AI shift as a deeper question about what it means to create value as a human when intelligent systems increasingly share responsibility for thinking and decision-making.02:10 - Guest Introduction: Tatyana MamutI introduce Tatyana Mamut, CEO of Wayfound and former CPO of Nextdoor, whose experience across anthropology, organizational design, and product leadership shapes her approach to human and AI systems.05:06 - From Economics to AnthropologyTatyana explains how the failure of economic models to predict events such as Russia's 1998 economic collapse pushed her toward studying the mental models and social institutions that shape human behavior.08:07 - Designing Culture Through Rules, Tools, and NormsTatyana breaks organizational culture into practical components, showing how formal rules, available technologies, incentives, status, beliefs, and unwritten norms interact to shape behavior.13:16 - The Multi-Sapiens WorkplaceTatyana argues that AI is forcing people to reconsider their comparative advantage as humans as intelligent systems begin participating in higher-level thinking and decision-making.18:42 - Four Human Capabilities to DevelopTatyana identifies taste, judgment, relationships, and performance as four areas people can strengthen as AI absorbs more routine mental work.23:32 - Why Human Relationships Matter MoreBarry and Tatyana discuss how automation can remove administrative work while making authentic relationships, lived experience, trust, and storytelling increasingly valuable.27:21 - Fear Is the Enemy of ProgressTatyana explains how fear can push organizations either to rush into AI using outdated assumptions or retreat when the technology does not behave like traditional software.29:11 - AI Agents Need Different SupervisionTatyana describes why AI agents require governance and oversight based on organizational context, including goals, rules, norms, and definitions of what good performance looks like.31:32 - The Incentive ProblemThe conversation turns to how model behavior and organizational goals interact, including Tatyana's view that sycophantic behavior can create unexpected feedback loops in production agents.32:34 - When an Agent Breaks the Intent of the RuleUsing a customer service example, Tatyana shows how an agent trying to maximize case closure and customer satisfaction can suggest a refund even when its guardrails tell it not to.38:59 - Escaping Endless Pilot ModeBarry explores why uncertainty can keep organizations trapped in experimentation rather than allowing AI systems to move into real operating environments.40:10 - Who Owns the Agent After Deployment?Tatyana argues that the functional experts closest to the work need direct responsibility and visibility once an AI agent is operating in production.44:41 - Treat AI Agents Like New EmployeesTatyana compares engineering teams to recruiters who can help bring an agent into the organization, while the business owner remains responsible for coaching, compliance, and ongoing performance.46:14 - Closing ReflectionsBarry closes by reflecting on the emerging skills leaders and individuals will need as they learn to manage systems in which humans and AI agents increasingly work together.FAQsQ1. What human skills become more valuable as AI takes on more work?Tatyana highlights four areas: taste, judgment, relationships, and performance. Her argument is that AI may generate options, perform routine mental work, and help with administration, but humans still create value by deciding what is good, what is worth doing, whom to trust, and how to motivate or persuade other people.Q2. What does Tatyana Mamut mean by a “multi-sapiens workplace”?She uses the phrase to describe a workplace where humans are no longer the only entities carrying out higher-level thinking and decision-making. In that environment, organizations need new rules, tools, and norms for determining how humans and AI systems work together and where responsibility sits.Q3. Why does Tatyana say AI adoption is an organizational design challenge?Because deploying an AI system changes more than the technology stack. Organizations also have to consider incentives, governance, supervision, communication, accountability, cultural norms, and who has the authority to evaluate and correct an agent's behavior.Q4. Why do AI agents need supervision even when they have guardrails?Tatyana explains that an agent can technically pursue its assigned goal while still behaving in a way the organization did not intend. Her customer service example shows an agent suggesting a refund because doing so could resolve the case and improve customer satisfaction, despite instructions designed to prevent refunds.Q5. Who should manage AI agents after they are deployed?Tatyana argues that responsibility should move toward the subject-matter experts who understand the work the agent performs. Engineering or IT may build and deploy the system, but salespeople should oversee sales agents, finance teams should oversee finance agents, and other functional experts should have direct access to monitor, correct, and improve their agents.Useful ResourcesTanyana Mamut on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/tmamut/ Wayfound - https://www.wayfound.ai/ Artificial Organizations - https://geni.us/artificialorgs Nextdoor - https://blog.nextdoor.com/ Claude - https://claude.com/ Salesforce -

I tried Pilates for the first time this weekend, and what I found on that reformer machine was one of the most honest pictures of how life actually works. The hidden springs underneath determined everything, and from the outside you could never tell who was carrying the heaviest load. That hit me hard, because we do the same thing to people every day. I also learned something about the pulses, those tiny movements that seem simple but wreck you faster than the big jumps, and that became a message I had to share about where real consistency is won and lost. Key Takeaways You cannot judge anyone's progress without knowing what resistance they are carrying beneath the surface. The harder your springs are in life, the stronger you become for the moments when everything levels out. Adding voluntary difficulty now is preparation for the real pressure you did not choose. The small, repetitive actions are harder than the big moments and matter more than most people admit. Trying new things builds perspective that opens doors you would never have found staying comfortable. Action Steps Identify one area of your life where you have been avoiding the small, monotonous tasks and commit to doing them consistently this week. Deliberately add one layer of challenge to your current routine, something that stretches you beyond your comfortable baseline. Before you judge someone's struggle or ease, remind yourself that you cannot see the springs they are carrying. Notable Quote The hardest steps in life are the little bitty ones. If you can handle the pulses, you will be ready for the big jumps.

Episode Synopsis:What happens to those who know right from wrong but choose to follow their own path even though their conscience and the Word of God warn them not to go that way?  No, lightning does not strike them, nor does the ground open up beneath their feet and swallow them whole. They don't keel over dead.  According to Paul, what does happen to those who willingly exchange the truth of God for a lie and who willfully suppress the truth in unrighteousness is far more consequential than it seems at first glance.  In exposing Gentile sinfulness, Paul warns of how God gives such people over to the consequences of their sin.  If this is the path they persist in taking, well then, God will let them follow it to the end—an end, Paul says, that is deserving of death.While it is common for Christians to emphasize those sexual sins that figure prominently in Paul's vice list in Romans 1:18–32 (and indeed they do), the sins mentioned here by Paul are universal to all of Adam's fallen race and include things we might consider “little” or insignificant sins—envy, gossip, and disobedience to parents.  The point of this list is to show the Gentile Christians in Rome that despite the fact that they know neither Moses nor the law of God, their sins are self-evident and condemn the entire human race.  No one will be able to stand before God on Judgment Day and claim, “But I did nothing wrong.”  And “if I did something wrong,” it is certainly not worthy of eternal condemnation.  But since God is holy and cannot look upon sin, Paul's vice list makes clear the sobering fact that all of us are sinners who have sinned against God and whose hearts are filled with sin and darkness.Those who don't think this is fair are those who compare themselves to their neighbor, some of whom are better than they are, while some are worse.  But God does not measure us by our neighbor; he measures us by his perfect holiness, which he demands of all his creatures.The dreaded phrase “God gave them over” reminds us that we cannot stand before God on the Day of Judgment and plead ignorance or claim that our sins really are not that big a deal, deserving of such severe punishment.  “I didn't kill anyone.”  Maybe not with my hands, but I've done it countless times in my heart, and so have you.  Although the phrase “God gave them over” has an eerie finality about it, we also ought to consider that the process of letting sinners feel the weight and consequences of their sins just might be the means by which God is preparing people to come to faith and repentance.  The conviction of sin is a work of the Holy Spirit.  The conviction of sin is actually a good thing—because we realize that we need to be delivered from the guilt and power of sin. Much better to feel the conviction of sin than to be allowed to continue uninterrupted on our chosen path to destruction.For show notes and other recommended materials located at the Riddleblog as mentioned during the Blessed Hope Podcast, click here:  https://www.kimriddlebarger.com/

What most men call judgment is actually accountability. The consequences of your choices are already judging you. If you fear that, you have become fragile. In this episode, Quincy draws a hard line between sideline critics and the trusted voices who love you enough to tell you the ugly truth.00:00 – Cold Open / Monologue For too long we have run from the trusted voices in our lives — the ones who help get us back on the path. We seek avoidance because we just want to be accepted. Our society has been taken hostage by corrupt ideals, and we must ask ourselves if we have assimilated. Our children's future depends on it.We say we don't want “this,” but in reality we are running from it when we should be running to it. What is the “this”? Most men don't want it. They want comfort. They want someone to make them feel better about the exact choices producing the consequences they are living in. When someone who actually loves them tells them the truth, they label it something else so they don't have to deal with it.Your consequences are already speaking — in your marriage, in the distance, in the example your kids are watching, and in the quiet places where you know you're not the man you said you would be. That discomfort is a signal that something in you has gotten fragile.03:15 – The Core Reframe First and foremost: what you and others call judgment is actually accountability. The consequences of your poor choices, apathy, and procrastination are what judge you. If you fear that accountability, you are fragile.Not everyone has access to hold you accountable. It must be people who love you, people you trust, and people who will always tell you the ugly truth rather than a sweet lie.05:00 – Welcome & Framing Quincy welcomes listeners from the Moran Family Studio and makes it clear this conversation is risky but necessary. He addresses how the same lie (“Don't judge me”) is being absorbed by the next generation, including his own kids.06:30 – Access & Permission Not every “bum with a thumb” gets the right to speak into your life. Accountability only belongs to the circle of people you have built trust with and given permission to. Blood relation or friendship alone does not automatically grant that access.08:00 – Accountability vs. Judgment When the people you love and trust come to you and say, “You said you were going to be this, but you are acting like that,” that is not judgment. That is accountability. Your own words are coming back to you. Every choice carries consequences, and those consequences are already executing judgment in your life. You will never outrun them.12:00 – Practical Areas of Consequence Quincy challenges men to examine specific areas where consequences are already speaking:Nutrition and healthConsistency in the gym / physical stewardshipPresence in marriage (doom-scrolling instead of connection)Lost intentionality after disappointment16:00 – The Enemy's Strategy There is an unseen enemy who wants to destroy you and your relationships. He wants you isolated, depressed, and living in an echo chamber where you believe “nobody understands.” He does not want you to have a passionate marriage, strong connection with your children, or positive impact in your work and community. Running from accountability plays directly into that strategy.20:00 – Freedom & The Path Forward There is freedom in Jesus Christ, and there is also freedom found in real accountability with those who love you. Acceptance in Christ does not mean everything stays the same — transformation begins as you walk closer with Him.22:30 – Challenge for the Week Observe your inner dialogue this week. Write it down. Notice where you are resisting the trusted voices in your life.24:00 – Closing Charge & Prayer You matter — to your wife, to your children, and to the purpose God has for you. Now is the moment to stop running and correct course. Quincy closes with prayer and encourages listeners to put their faith in Jesus Christ. He also points to Galatians 6:9-10 as a lifestyle scripture.Key TakeawaysWhat most men call “judgment” is actually accountability.The consequences of your choices are already judging you.Fear of accountability is a sign of fragility.Only people who love you, whom you trust, and who will tell you the ugly truth should have access to hold you accountable.Running from those voices keeps you stuck.The enemy thrives on isolation and the rejection of accountability.Questionnaire / ReflectionWhere in my life are the consequences of my choices currently speaking the loudest?Have I been labeling accountability as “judgment” so I don't have to face it?Who are the 2–3 people in my life who have earned the right to tell me the hard truth — and have I been open to them?What is one area (health, marriage, presence, discipline) where I need to stop choosing what is easy and start doing what is necessary?Connect & Call to ActionIf this episode hit you, don't just sit with it.Email me: quincy@mvsmpodcast.com Tell me where you're feeling the tension or where you need prayer.Website: https://quincymoran.com X: @quincywmoranShare this episode with one man who needs to hear it.

A Handbook for Modern Rebellion, part 12: Leave Your Judgment at the Door 

Series: N/AService: Sun AMType: SermonSpeaker: Emerson, Kris

Romans 1:18–32 reveals that humanity's deepest problem is rejecting what we know about God. Creation points to His power and truth, yet people suppress that truth and exchange the Creator for created things. This idolatry turns good things into ultimate things, producing desires that never satisfy and leading to greater sin. God's wrath is seen in His “giving them over,” allowing people to pursue what they have chosen and experience the destructive consequences. Paul's list of sins is meant to be a mirror for everyone, exposing the universal tendency to replace God with something else. The answer is not better arguments, culture, or human effort, but repentance and Christ. When we turn back to God, the Holy Spirit begins replacing the fruit of selfishness and sin with love, joy, peace, and self-control. Romans 1 shows the downward path of sin: reject God → replace God → distorted desires → distorted thinking → destructive living. The Gospel reverses that path by bringing us back to the Creator, restoring our hearts and transforming how we live.

Sound Healing with David Gibson Transforming Negative Beliefs Through Sound, Resonance, and Self-Love David Gibson explores how negative beliefs influence relationships, work, money, health, self-worth, and spiritual growth, then guides listeners through affirmations, vocal-toning practices, and embodied truths designed to replace limiting patterns with love, confidence, emotional balance, and a deeper sense of personal wholeness. Sound Healing Center Resources and Programs The episode opens with an overview of the Sound Healing Center and its related organizations, including Globe Institute, the Sound Healing Store, the Sound Therapy Center, and the Sound Healing Research Foundation. The introduction describes certificate programs, sound-healing instruments, vibroacoustic tools, research papers, treatment-plan resources, educational projects, and online information for listeners interested in sound therapy and related training. How Negative Beliefs Shape Everyday Life David Gibson identifies transforming negative beliefs as the central topic of the episode. He says limiting beliefs affect relationships, employment, income, health, self-image, and the ability to love oneself and others. He attributes these beliefs to sources such as mass consciousness, culture, religion, parents, education, advertising, and personal experiences, explaining that people often carry beliefs about not being intelligent, attractive, spiritual, emotional, successful, healthy, or worthy enough. Replacing Limiting Beliefs With Believable Truths Gibson teaches that a negative belief should be replaced with an affirmation the listener can believe completely, rather than with a statement that feels exaggerated or only partially true. For example, instead of claiming to be loving at all times, he suggests affirming, “My core essence is love.” He encourages listeners to speak or tone these truths aloud so they are felt physically and emotionally, not merely understood as intellectual ideas. Self-Worth, Appearance, Emotion, and Sensitivity The teaching addresses beliefs such as being unintelligent, undeserving, unattractive, too old, too emotional, insufficiently spiritual, overly critical, or too sensitive. Gibson reframes mistakes as part of human growth, the body as a vehicle for spirit, emotional awareness as something worthy of acceptance, and sensitivity as a strength that allows people to perceive subtle energy. Throughout the segment, he leads vocal-toning practices centered on intelligence, worthiness, physical acceptance, loving discernment, and the affirmation that sensitivity can be a superpower. Belonging, Relationships, Judgment, and Abundance Gibson also explores beliefs involving not fitting in, relationship difficulties, feeling unlovable, fearing other people's opinions, being invisible, lacking patience, and not deserving financial abundance. He encourages listeners to view relationships as opportunities for learning, recognize their own value without depending entirely on outside approval, and replace competition with collaboration. His discussion of wealth emphasizes caring for oneself first and allowing resources to move through a person in ways that may benefit others. Health, Self-Healing, and the Closing Self-Love Practice The final teaching section addresses beliefs about chronic health problems, aging, limited time, declining energy, and the perceived inability to heal oneself. Gibson encourages listeners to imagine themselves healthy, send sound toward areas of the body that need attention, and affirm that they are worthy of health, wealth, harmonious relationships, and other positive experiences. The episode concludes with a music segment combining “Loving Yourself” and “Overcoming Fear,” followed by an invitation to hug oneself, say “I love you” aloud, send that loving sound toward the heart, and continue carrying the practice forward. These healing statements reflect Gibson's views and should not be treated as medical advice or established scientific conclusions.

Before I decide what I'm dealing with, I need to measure the situation and get accurate information. Measurement creates clarity, and clarity gives me a stronger foundation for making decisions and taking action. If I judge too early, I'm making decisions from incomplete or inaccurate information. And when the information is bad, everything that follows can be tainted. Show Notes: [02:42]#1 Measurement produces facts.  [08:22]#2 Judgment often reflects emotion. [13:30]#3 What gets measured can be improved. [15:12] Recap Next Steps: --- Execution is not a talent.   It is a standard.

In Malachi 3:13-18, the Israelites complained that God was blessing wicked people and righteous people were struggling. Because of this, they concluded that serving God didn't matter. The insight we are going to process is that from the outside looking in, the financial success or failure of someone is not an indication of God's blessing or judgment.  __________ Malachi 3:13-18 NLT __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com __________    

Audio taken from the live teaching of "The Prophecy that Explains the Whole Bible - The Very First Prophecy in the Bible!" - https://youtu.be/nqmpngWm1iAImagine standing in the Garden of Eden on the darkest day in human history. The air is heavy with shame as Adam and Eve have just rebelled against God's directive. It seems the serpent has succeeded. Death has entered. The relationship with God is broken. Judgment is about to fall. But then, in the middle of the curse, God turns not to the Adam or to Eve, but to the serpent, and speaks the most hope-filled words the world had ever heard. “And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel.”In our time together today I am going to uncover what many scholars refer to as the foundational prophecy of the entire Bible, and show you the very first prophecy in the Scriptures.Key Scriptures used in today's teaching: Genesis 3:15Other Scriptures referenced in this teaching: Galatians 4:4; Hebrews 2:14-15Unless stated otherwise, most Scripture is read from the New Living Translation (NLT) Bible.If you prayed with Tiff, click here https://lostlamb.org/ and let him know!  Be sure to check out the playlist “New Beginnings” - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsX8E19Azl58_FjxELPxjnsL8CAtmama4Thank you for listening, and subscribe for new content each week.Ways to give:https://www.lostlamb.org/give

God gathers the nations into the valley of Jehoshaphat and reads the charges: they scattered His people, divided His land, cast lots for captives, traded a boy for a prostitute, and sold a girl for wine. Then a line every listener knows arrives in reverse: beat your plowshares into swords and your pruning hooks into spears. The LORD roars from Zion, the heavens and the earth quake, and in the same breath He is a refuge to His people. Joel ends with sweet wine dripping from the mountains and a fountain flowing from the house of the LORD.  The Rev. Robert Smith, pastor emeritus in Ft. Wayne, IN, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Joel 3:1-21.  Edom stands at the crossroads and watches his brother Judah dragged off in chains, and Obadiah announces that the day of the LORD is coming for the bystander, too. Joel sees a locust swarm strip a nation bare in a single season, calls the people to rend their hearts and not their garments, and promises a Spirit poured out on all flesh. Nahum returns to Nineveh a century after Jonah's revival, and this time the superpower does not repent. Zephaniah spends two chapters on the day of wrath and then ends with the Lord singing over the people He has rescued. This series on Thy Strong Word works through these selected books of the so-called "minor" prophets verse by verse, showing how the Lord judges the nations while also keeping his promises to gather His people home.  Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations. Submit comments or questions to: thystrongword@kfuo.org.

Fresh off the showroom floor at Black Hat 2026, Ron brings back some hot takes from the crowd. Nearly every booth he visited, including the Exaforce booth, was pushing in the same direction. Trust in AI isn't a philosophy debate anymore, it's an engineering problem people are actively solving.    Ron then catches up with Jen Easterly, CEO of RSAC, for a wide-ranging conversation on what it actually takes to build that trust. From her move out of government to her hard line on AI regulation and liability, the conversation takes an unexpected turn when Jen opens up about "cognitive surrender" and why she believes good judgment can't be automated away.

What happened to the prophetic movement—and what will it take to rebuild it? Ken Fish and Joel Taylor sit down with John E. Thomas, leader of Streams Ministries International (founded by the late John Paul Jackson) and a speaker at the upcoming Luminosity conference (Nashville, Oct 1–3, 2026). Register: https://kingdomluminosity.org/John argues that the implosion of the prophetic over recent years is both the inevitable fruit of what was sown and the judgment of God—a purging meant to clear away defilement so a healthier generation can arise. He traces the warning signs back to the 1990s: creeping Gnosticism and universalism, divination dressed up as revelation, the loss of the fear of the Lord, and the teaching that imagination is revelation and discernment is unnecessary.The conversation keeps returning to the conference theme—consecration and holiness—and why a clean "lens" is essential to perceiving what God is actually saying.In this conversation:Why the collapse of the prophetic was both consequence and divine judgmentWhy true prophetic ministry includes justice and judgment, not only comfort"Imagination is revelation" and other dangerous errorsEmotional atmosphere vs. the genuine presence of GodHow the medium we learn through shapes the way we thinkWhy intercession is core to the propheticThe sons of Zadok—and treating the holy as holyWhy holiness keeps the lens of the soul cleanRegister for Luminosity

Fr. Mike focuses on Ezekiel's warnings about false prophets misleading the people of Israel, and challenges us to reflect whether we choose to listen to prophets who tell us what we need to hear, not just what we want to hear. Today's readings are Isaiah 51-52, Ezekiel 12-13, and Proverbs 12:21-24. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.
