In this episode of Tank Talks, Matt Cohen sits down with Ali Asaria, Co-Founder of Transformer Lab, to unpack the less visible side of the AI boom, from broken machine learning tools to the rise of autonomous research agents. Ali shares what it really looks like inside modern AI development and why the biggest opportunity isn't just using models, but having the ability to train, control, and improve them.Ali also reflects on his journey building across multiple tech waves, from creating BrickBreaker on BlackBerry to scaling Well.ca and Tulip, and now tackling AI infrastructure with Transformer Lab. He breaks down the realities most founders don't talk about, why great products lose deals, how long enterprise sales actually take, and why success often comes down to trust, timing, and people more than technology.Beyond AI, the conversation takes a broader turn into the future of innovation. Ali challenges the tech industry, especially in Canada, to think bigger, rebuild public trust, and focus on solving real-world problems through ambitious “mega projects.” If you're trying to separate AI hype from reality and understand where the real leverage is being created, this episode gives you a much clearer lens.Building BrickBreaker on 150M Devices (00:02:41)How a side project at BlackBerry turned into a global phenomenon. The early lesson that distribution beats perfection. Ali shares how building something simple but widely adopted gave him an early taste of scale. It also shaped his belief that getting into users' hands fast matters more than polishing endlessly in isolation.The Early Days of E-Commerce in Canada (00:05:36)Packing boxes manually, hacking payment systems, and why investors believed e-commerce would never work in Canada. From manually processing credit cards to building infrastructure from scratch, Ali walks through how scrappy the early days really were. It's a reminder that many “obvious” markets today once looked completely unworkable.Scaling Well.ca and the McKesson Exit (00:08:18)How relationships with partners turned into acquisition opportunities. The messy reality behind “successful exits.” Ali explains how long-term partnerships quietly set the stage for acquisition, even before it was intentional. He also highlights how unpredictable and fragile deals can be, even when they seem done.Enterprise Sales Lessons from Tulip (00:11:19)Why great products don't win deals. Trust, relationships, and the human side of multi-million dollar contracts. Ali breaks down how enterprise sales are less about features and more about credibility and relationships built over time. He also shares how incumbents win not because they're better, but because they're already embedded.The Hard Truth About Startup Life (00:13:52)“90% hell, 10% fun.” What founders don't talk about publicly and how to choose the right investors. Behind the highlight reels, Ali emphasizes how difficult the journey really is and how rarely things go to plan. Choosing the right partners becomes critical when things inevitably get hard.The Moment AI Changed Everything (00:16:22)Why language models shattered the belief that human intelligence couldn't be replicated. Ali describes the exact moment his worldview shifted after seeing what LLMs could do. What once felt impossible suddenly became inevitable, changing how he thought about both technology and opportunity.What Transformer Lab Actually Does (00:20:11)Simplifying AI model training, orchestration, and infrastructure across local machines and massive GPU clusters. Ali explains how fragmented and complex current AI workflows are, especially for researchers. Transformer Lab aims to remove that friction and make building models far more accessible and efficient.Scaling AI From One Machine to Thousands (00:23:14)The technical leap required to move from hobbyist experimentation to full-scale AI labs. Moving from a single machine to distributed systems introduces massive complexity most developers never see. Ali breaks down why solving this unlock is essential for the next generation of AI builders.AI Hype vs Reality (00:25:41)Why Ali believes we may already have AGI, and why valuations still don't make sense. Ali challenges the common narrative by arguing we're closer to AGI than people admit. At the same time, he questions whether the current market can realistically justify the valuations we're seeing.Canada's Startup Ecosystem: Challenges & Advantages (00:32:11)Why geography matters less than mindset, and why building is always hard everywhere. Ali pushes back on the idea that location is the primary constraint for founders. Instead, he argues that resilience and ambition matter far more than where you're building from.Why Tech Has Lost Public Trust (00:34:12)From rebels to power players, and what founders must do to rebuild credibility. Ali reflects on how the tech industry's image has shifted over time and why that matters.

As artificial intelligence becomes a strategic capability for nations as well as companies, questions of governance, safety, and geopolitical competition are moving to the forefront. In this episode of TechSurge, host Sriram Viswanathan speaks with Helen Toner, Interim Executive Director of the Center for Security and Emerging Technology (CSET) at Georgetown and a former OpenAI board member, about the rise of sovereign AI stacks and the global implications of increasingly powerful AI systems.Helen brings a rare vantage point from both inside the frontier AI ecosystem and the policy world. She reflects on lessons from her time on the OpenAI board, including the governance challenges that arise when nonprofit missions intersect with enormous commercial incentives and rapid technological progress. As AI capabilities accelerate, she argues that the industry is still grappling with deep uncertainty about how these systems work, how they will evolve, and what responsibilities companies and governments should carry.The conversation explores the idea of sovereign AI; the growing push by countries to control key layers of the AI stack, including compute infrastructure, models, and data. Helen explains why governments increasingly view AI as a strategic national resource, comparable to past transformative technologies like electricity or the internet. At the same time, she cautions that full technological independence may be unrealistic for most nations, given the complexity and global interdependence of the AI supply chain.Sriram and Helen also examine the evolving US–China AI competition, the role of export controls and semiconductor supply chains, and how different countries, from China to emerging AI hubs in the Middle East, are positioning themselves in the race to build advanced AI capabilities. Along the way, they discuss whether the industry should slow down development, how companies are experimenting with “safety frameworks” for frontier models, and why installing guardrails may be more realistic than attempting to halt progress altogether.Ultimately, Helen argues that society is entering a period of profound uncertainty. AI is transitioning from a research discipline into a foundational system that will shape economies, security, and daily life. Navigating that transition will require not just technical breakthroughs, but new approaches to governance, transparency, and global cooperation.If you enjoy this episode, please subscribe and leave us a review on your favorite podcast platform.Sign up for our newsletter at techsurgepodcast.com for updates on upcoming TechSurge Live Summits and future Season 2 episodes.--Episode LinksConnect with Helen: linkedin.com/in/helen-toner-4162439aLearn more about CSET: https://cset.georgetown.edu/--Timestamps03:00 Lessons from the OpenAI Board: Governance in the Age of Frontier AI05:00 The Big Unknowns in AI Development: Why Experts Still Disagree12:05 Public Trust and the Risk of an AI Backlash14:20 When AI Became Infrastructure: From Research Field to Societal System16:00 Is AGI a Meaningless Term Now?

Kathryn Paige Harden (Original Sin On the Genetics of Vice, the Problem of Blame, and the Future of Forgiveness) is a psychologist, professor, and behavioral geneticist. Kathryn joins the Armchair Expert to discuss why psychology is not a solved problem, studying the essential question of why we do things we don't want to do, and how her religious upbringing was fundamentally at odds with her desire to study psychology. Kathryn and Dax talk about what living in a culture that embraces the concept of original sin means for our morality, genetic predictors of misdemeanor versus felony behavior, and our active human inclination to break stuff. Kathryn explains her belief that holding each other accountable is not a supernatural condition but a social one, why we can aim to be better in our institutions than in our worst moments, and the scientific fact that there's no evolution without diversity.Check Allstate first for a quote that could save you hundreds: https://www.allstate.com/Head to turbotax.com to find a store location near you and get matched with a TurboTax expert — with real-time updates in the iOS app.This episode is sponsored by AppleTV.

Sign up for the live Conversations with Tyler recording with Craig Newmark at 92NY! Few living scholars can claim to have shaped how we read Machiavelli as decisively as Harvey Mansfield. His new book, The Rise and Fall of Rational Control, argues that Machiavelli didn't just write about politics—he invented the intellectual machinery of the modern world, starting with the concept of "effectual truth," which Mansfield credits as the seed of modern empiricism. At 93, after 61 years of teaching at Harvard, Mansfield remains cheerfully unimpressed by most of contemporary philosophy, convinced that the great books are self-sustaining, and that irony is what separates serious philosophy from the rest. Tyler and Harvey discuss how Machiavelli's concept of fact was brand new, why his longest chapter is a how-to guide for conspiracy, whether America's 20th-century wars refute the conspiratorial worldview, Trump as a Shakespearean vulgarian who is in some ways more democratic than the rest of us, why Bronze Age Pervert should not be taken as a model for Straussianism, the time he tried to introduce Nietzsche to Quine, why Rawls needed more Locke, what it was like to hear Churchill speak at Margate in 1953, whether great books are still being written, how his students have and haven't changed over 61 years of teaching, the eclipse rather than decline of manliness, and what Aristotle got right about old age and much more.

This series address what some of us in recovery refer to as “the God problem.” In episode 1 "Bill Wilson's Spiritual Experiences" we explore: Does God exist? Does God really care about us – and maybe more honestly and specifically, does God care about me and mine?People have been asking these questions for as long as human beings have been on this earth but for us “real” alcoholics and addicts whose lives depend on finding a spiritual solution to our addiction death sentence, it's more than a matter of speculation.Bill Wilson was one of those men in such desperate need. In this episode Fr. Bill traces some of the lesser-known events that preceded Bill Wilson's famous “White Light” experience in detox. Through these encounters the door of Bill's mind and heart can be seen opening to a divine, healing Presence that would soon bring about his release from addiction. Future episodes will attempt to open inner doors for addicts and alcoholics struggling with the spiritual approach used in 12-Step recovery.Show notes:Bill W. My First 40 Years

What role should AI play in running our business? In this roundtable, Michelle Kline, Daniel Reitman, and Doug Keeling explore the growing role of artificial intelligence in the pet care industry. They discuss practical use cases like data analysis, client support, route optimization, SOP creation, and marketing, while also wrestling with real concerns around environmental impact, ethics, authenticity, and changing job markets. The conversation keeps returning to one central idea: AI should not replace human care, but it can free business owners to spend more time on the parts of the job that matter most. This episode is a nuanced, honest look at how pet care businesses can engage AI without losing their values, relationships, or humanity. Main topics: AI use in operations Ethics and environmental concerns Saving time through automation AI and client experience Future of pet care Main takeaway: "AI should never make care decisions about a living animal. It should never replace a physical caregiver. It should supplement what we do." AI can help us analyze data, improve systems, and buy back time, but it should never replace the human judgment, presence, and compassion that define great pet care. The real opportunity is not to become more robotic in how we run our businesses. It is to become more human by removing some of the busywork that pulls us away from pets, clients, and team members. This episode is a thoughtful discussion about how to use new tools without losing the heart of what we do. About our guests: Michelle K. is the founder of Dog Co Launch, where she helps pet care business owners build stronger systems, scale sustainably, and think more strategically about growth. She brings a coaching perspective to this conversation, especially around operations, data, and the ethical limits of AI in service-based businesses. Michelle is deeply focused on helping businesses adapt without losing the human relationships that make their work meaningful. Daniel Reitman is the owner of Dan's Pet Care and is known for asking hard questions and pushing the industry to think bigger about operations, technology, and standards of care. He is an early adopter of AI tools and has been exploring how they can support data analysis, staff communication, customer experience, and business scalability. Daniel brings both enthusiasm and urgency to conversations about how quickly this technology is changing the landscape. Doug Keeling is the founder of Bad to the Bone Pet Care and a respected voice in pet care hiring, leadership, and business development. Though he describes himself as a later adopter of AI, Doug has found meaningful ways to use it for SOPs, training, data analysis, and administrative efficiency. He brings a grounded, thoughtful perspective to the conversation, especially around environmental impact and using AI in ways that create more time for relationships and community care.

The teenage years are always tough, not just for the teens but also for the parents, teachers, and coaches in their lives. Charlene Engstrom and Johan Fallby have decided to do something about this and their firm, Playwell Minds has developed an app and other teaching tools to develop in young people what they describe as "mental fitness." Chapters: 00:00 Introduction to Playwell Minds The episode introduces Playwell Minds, an organization founded by Charlene Engstrom and Johan Fallby, focused on proactive mental fitness training for teens. Their app aims to help young people develop a positive mindset and coping skills. 01:42 Founders' Diverse Backgrounds Charlene Engstrom, from a corporate background, and Johan Fallby, with experience in sports psychology, share their unique journeys to co-founding Playwell Minds. They discuss how their different expertise contributes to their mission of helping young people. 06:20 Playwell Minds: Proactive Mental Fitness Playwell Minds provides a seven-step mental fitness methodology and an app for teens, focusing on proactive rather than reactive mental health support. The program draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, sports psychology, and positive psychology to help teens develop self-awareness and coping skills. 12:49 The Role of Phones and Apps The discussion delves into how Playwell Minds utilizes a phone-based app to reach teens, acknowledging concerns about screen time and social media. The app offers a private space for self-reflection and encourages positive habits through short, focused exercises, contrasting with the negative aspects of social media. 21:04 Teaching Realistic Optimism Charlene and Johan explain their approach to teaching realistic optimism, which involves self-awareness, enjoying the present, and accepting setbacks, drawing from CBT and positive psychology.

They also advise parents to encourage solutions and celebrate small achievements, rather than solely focusing on results and adding pressure. 33:02 Impact and Future of Playwell Minds Playwell Minds is actively pursuing formal research with universities to validate its positive impact, building on strong anecdotal evidence and survey results from over 1,400 students. The program is expanding from Sweden to the U.S. and France, with the goal of equipping teens with lifelong mental fitness skills. 43:10 Conclusion and Resources The hosts reflect on the challenging yet admirable work of Playwell Minds in helping teenagers navigate modern pressures with realistic optimism. Listeners are encouraged to visit playwellminds.com and their YouTube channel for more information and resources on teen mental fitness.
The number of couples struggling to become pregnant due to unexplained infertility is growing at an alarming rate across the globe. Alongside this concerning rise is the growing awareness of how endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) – particularly those found in plastics and personal care products – are negatively affecting our hormonal health and overall well-being. If we removed or reduced EDCs from the environments of couples struggling to conceive – dramatically reducing their exposure – is it possible their fertility would be improved? In this episode, Nate is joined by Dr. Shanna Swan, an award-winning scientist, and Sian Sutherland, a plastics expert, to discuss Shanna's new Netflix documentary, titled The Plastic Detox, where she enacts a real-world 'plastic intervention' in the lives of six couples struggling with unexplained infertility – with the hope that they are able to get pregnant by the end of the study. Additionally, Sian shares the strategies her organization has been using to increase regulation of EDC-containing products and increase the availability of plastic-free options. Shanna and Sian also discuss how they're bringing their work together for the Plastic Free Babies campaign, which emphasizes why avoiding toxic chemical exposure during the first one-thousand days of a baby's life is so important to preventing generational effects on overall health and fertility. How might reducing our exposure to EDCs such as phthalates, bisphenols, and parabens improve markers of hormonal health and create ripple effects on our overall quality of life? What is the reasonable responsibility of our governments to test and regulate the safety of products on the market – and are our current institutions fulfilling those expectations? Finally, could addressing the toxins and pollution related to declining fertility lead us down a path of broader systemic change for the entire web of life? About Dr. Shanna Swan: Dr. Shanna H. Swan, PhD, is an award-winning scientist based at Mt. Sinai (New York, NY). Shanna has published more than 200 scientific papers and has been featured in extensive media coverage around the world. She currently serves as the Director of the Action Science Initiative, a program that conducts rapid interventions and larger, longer-term studies that look at the impacts of environmental pollutants on fertility and related markers of reproductive health. Additionally, Shanna co-authored the 2021 book, Countdown: How Our Modern World Is Threatening Sperm Counts, Altering Male and Female Reproductive Development, and Imperiling the Future of the Human Race. Most recently, Shanna was featured in the documentary, The Plastic Detox, where she helped six couples dealing with unexplained fertility reduce their exposure to endocrine disrupting chemicals in their environment in hopes of getting pregnant. The movie was released on Netflix on March 16th, 2026. Shanna's previous appearances include ABC News, NBC Nightly News, 60 Minutes, CBS News, PBS, BBC, PRI Radio, NPR, Andrew Huberman Lab, and The Joe Rogan Experience. About Sian Sutherland: Sian Sutherland is Co-founder of A Plastic Planet, one of the most recognized and respected organizations tackling the plastic crisis. More recently, she also co-founded PlasticFree, the first materials and systems solutions platform, empowering the 160m global creatives to design waste out at the source. Sian was awarded the Female Marketer of the Year, Entrepreneur of the Year, and British Inventor of the Year. In 2023 at the UN Plastics Treaty negotiations (INC2), in partnership with Plastic Soup Foundation, A Plastic Planet launched the Plastic Health Council, bringing expert scientists to the negotiating process with the irrefutable proof of plastic chemicals' impacts on human health. Most recently, in early 2024, Sian co-founded the Foundation for Visionary Science and Art with Alex Adams, working with the scientists to help fund their extraordinary research work on psychedelic therapies. Passionately pro-business and solutions focused, Sian believes the plastic crisis gives mankind a rare gateway to change both materials and systems to create a different future for next generations.

William Hockey is the co-founder of Plaid and the founder and CEO of Column, a software company that owns a bank and powers Ramp, Wise, Bilt, Mercury, and others.

William talks about what owning 100% of his company allows him to do that other venture-backed founder cannot and the personal risk he took to do so. He shares how Silicon Valley's consensus culture produces consensus founders, and why becoming a founder has become too safe. He believes the best builders are specialists and explains with unusual clarity what it takes to become the best in the world at one specific thing. William also spends a lot of time in emerging markets which has given him a unique perspective of the power of the US dollar.

The favorite past time of many an owner is to gripe about their younger Gen Z staff. Before them it was millennials. Before them it was Gen X, before them...well, you get the idea. For as long as coffee shops have hired employees, leaders have found it challenging to lead and manage a younger work force and the reason given is that there is just something about "That" generation. Well, I have good news for you! On today's episode we will be talking about why you should not manage these Gen Z people! At least not the way you think you do. We will explore the counterproductive practice of studying cohorts of people vs the productive practice of actually managing the people you have right in front of you. I recently gave a talk about this subject at Coffee Fest and it really hit home to many struggling to find ways to manage their staff. I hope you find this episode to be both a relief and challenging at the same time. Related Episodes: 558: Digital Natives and the Future of Coffee Shops w/Kosta Kallivrousis 194 : Encore Episode!

Join Here: https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0KThe latest Segment of Notorious Mass Effect features Analytic Dreamz dissecting the swirling rumors around Drake's upcoming album ICEMAN (stylized as “Iceman”), teased since 2024 and positioned as his major post-Kendrick Lamar feud project in 2026.With no official announcement, tracklist, or confirmed release date as of March 16, 2026, Analytic Dreamz examines the buildup: cryptic social media posts like “ICEMAN 2026,” insider claims of an imminent drop (some speculating late March or April), and industry predictions from outlets like Hits Daily Double calling it potentially the biggest album of the year amid Drake's streaming dominance.The hottest rumor centers on a Future feature—sparked by Charlamagne Tha God on The Breakfast Club, citing a source who allegedly heard the project and confirmed Pluto's appearance. This would mark a stunning reconciliation after their 2024 fallout tied to Metro Boomin and the “Like That” diss. Discussions on podcasts like New Rory & Mal and Joe Budden's show debate its validity, with Budden dismissing much as hype or delay tactics while predicting an 80% chance Drake takes shots at J. Cole, referencing lingering tension from Cole's “7 Minute Drill” apology and battle withdrawal.Betting markets like Kalshi give only ~26% odds for a J. Cole feature, with Cole himself responding non-committally: “I don't know about that.” Other speculated collaborators include frequent partners 21 Savage, Travis Scott, Lil Wayne, and Young Thug, plus fan wishes like Central Cee, Bad Bunny, SZA, Dave, and Brent Faiyaz—though none are verified.Analytic Dreamz breaks down fan divisions: excitement for high-profile reunions and a narrative response to the beef versus skepticism that reconciling with rivals feels desperate or undermines Drake's stance, as voiced by critics like Glasses Malone.As the most anticipated rap release of 2026, ICEMAN remains shrouded in speculation, fueling debates on reconciliation, disses, and rollout strategy.Tune in for Analytic Dreamz's balanced take on separating fact from rumor in Drake's next era.

He is the creator of The Big Picture, often ranked as the number one financial blog to follow by The Wall Street Journal, New York Times, and others. Barry Ritholtz is the creator and host of Bloomberg's "Masters in Business" radio podcast, and a featured columnist at the Washington Post. He is the author of the Bailout Nation: How Greed and Easy Money Corrupted Wall Street and Shook the World Economy (Wiley, 2009). In addition to serving as Chairman and Chief Investment Officer of Ritholtz Wealth Management, he is also on the advisory boards of Riskalyze, and Peer Street, two leading financial technology startups bringing transparency and analytics to the investment business. Barry has named one of the "15 Most Important Economic Journalists" in the United States, and has been called one of The 25 Most Dangerous People in Financial Media. When not working, he can be found with his wife and their two dogs on the north shore of Long Island. Jonathan Miller is the Director of Markets for StreetMatrix, a real-time home price index series used by the financial services sector to track local, regional, and national housing markets in the United States. I'm also the President and CEO of Miller Samuel Inc., a real estate appraisal and consulting firm I co-founded in 1986. For 32 years, I authored a series of market reports for Douglas Elliman Real Estate, considered the "report of record," which accounted for 50% of their media coverage. My market reports analyzed the New York City metropolitan area, Boston, parts of Florida, California, Texas, Connecticut, and Colorado that were relied on by the media, financial institutions, and government agencies, including the Federal Reserve, Internal Revenue Service, U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, the NYC Office of Management and Budget, and others. I am an Adjunct Associate Professor of Architecture, Planning, and Preservation in the Master of Science in Real Estate Development (MSRED) Program at Columbia University, where I teach market analysis. I've guest lectured at institutions including New York University, Harvard University, The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, Columbia University, and Drexel University, and am also a New York State Real Estate Instructor for qualifying and continuing education courses and a New York State Real Estate Appraiser Instructor for qualifying certified general and continuing education courses. I co-authored a research paper for NYU School of Law and the NYU Wagner Graduate School of Public Service's Furman Center for Real Estate and Urban Policy titled The Condominium v. Cooperative Puzzle: An Empirical Analysis of Housing in New York City, published in 2007 by the Journal of Legal Studies at the University of Chicago. Back in 2010, I developed pending home sale indices for the Washington, D.C., and Baltimore metro areas, and Central Pennsylvania, on behalf of Bright MLS, one of the largest multiple listing services in the U.S. One of my favorite activities is serving on the New York City Mayor's Economic Advisory Panel, representing the residential real estate sector, and the New York State Budget Division Economic Advisory Board. I've also participated in valuation studies with academic institutions, including New York University, Princeton University, Columbia University, and Baruch College. I participated in and co-authored an epic research paper as part of the Urban Land Institute Advisory Services for the city of Norfolk, VA (its flooding problems are getting worse). I also authored a white paper for One Fine Stay, a hospitality brand owned by AccorHotels, titled "The Future of Luxury New Development in New York: Leaving $1 Billion on the Table." In the valuation world, I am a state-certified real estate appraiser in New York and Connecticut, and I provide expert witness testimony in various local, state, and federal courts. I hold the Counselors of Real Estate (CRE) designation. I am also an Appraiser "A" Member of the Real Estate Board of New York and a former two-term President of RAC, a premier appraisal organization whose members focus on complex residential properties for relocation, litigation support, testimony, and reviews. As a result of my extensive writing and investigative research on this Housing Notes platform, I brought public attention to the misconduct of two key institutions in the appraisal profession: The Appraisal Foundation and The Appraisal Institute. As a result, I became an expert witness for the Appraisal Subcommittee at FHFA in Washington, DC, which aired for three hours on C-SPAN in 2023. One memorable thing that came out of my appearance was the birth of my fourth grandchild during the session. On the personal side, I'm clearly a homebody and love hanging out with my wife, whom I met in college in 1980, greasing donut trays at 5:30 am at the student bakery, a part of the second-largest non-military cafeteria in the world, located at Michigan State University. There is nothing better than when any of our four sons and their significant others, including the grandchildren, are in town. For our fortieth wedding anniversary, my wife and I went to Antarctica (perhaps I'm not a homebody?) While I'm at it, a couple of formative childhood adventures: At 12 years old, I climbed to the snow line of Mt. Kilimanjaro (leadership said I was too young to summit - boo!) In middle school, I traveled to the Soviet Union on a study abroad program before the wall fell. When I was a teenager and before I got my driver's license, I rode my bicycle from Oregon to Virginia in the summer of 1976, carrying all my gear (my parents claim they gave me a one-way airplane ticket to fly across the US, and I came back!) At age 25, I co-founded Miller Samuel because I didn't know any better. In my offline hours, I love to read, explore new music, try to make snow, attempt to catch lobsters, and endeavor to connect to my backyard birdhouse camera from whatever airplane I happen to be flying on.
