    Dan Nathan welcomes Current co-founders Stuart Sopp and CTO Trevor Marshall to discuss Current's business momentum, the fintech landscape, and the evolving AI build-out. Sopp announces an $80 million Series E at a $1.5 billion valuation led by Spring Coast, noting Current's profitability, deepened partnerships with Cross River and General Catalyst's customer value fund, and over 70% growth for three consecutive years. Marshall describes Current's compounding product strategy around combining banking and liquidity, and how disciplined infrastructure cost controls shape their AI approach, including customer-facing personalization and potential use of lower-cost or self-hosted models. The group debates token pricing deflation, open-source models, hyperscaler distribution advantages (especially Google/Vertex), SaaS displacement, and macro factors affecting consumers, concluding fintech winners are emerging and public-market interest may return via IPOs or M&A. —FOLLOW USYouTube: @RiskReversalMediaInstagram: @riskreversalmediaTwitter: @RiskReversalLinkedIn: RiskReversal Media The financial opinions expressed in Risk Reversal content are for information purposes only.

    This week on Sinica I'm joined by Robert Wright, author of The Moral Animal, Nonzero, and The Evolution of God, for a conversation that runs a little outside our usual beat, though China sits closer to its center than you'd expect. The occasion is his new book The God Test: Artificial Intelligence and Our Coming Cosmic Reckoning, which reads the AI revolution as the latest turn in a story going back billions of years. We get into the French Jesuit paleontologist Teilhard de Chardin's "noosphere," Bob's argument that we evolved large language models rather than engineered them, the cognitive empathy we've both long preached, and the two-word talking point — "But China!" — that Bob thinks is most likely to lead us astray.6:56 – Teilhard de Chardin, the noosphere, and why a planetary "global brain" has become necessary14:49 – Directionality without the mysticism: complexification, teleology, and the "cell's-eye view" worry21:57 – The God Test: is moral progress really the price of governing AI, and is that hopeless on a short clock?28:33 – Why Bob says we evolved large language models rather than built them, and the sycophancy problem that follows35:19 – Open weights and open source: a real safety argument, or competitiveness in safety's clothing?40:03 – Cognitive empathy as the master key, and the same capacity as an engine of deception48:06 – Arms-race fatalism and its limits: cheetahs, gazelles, and the rival who can pick up the phone53:40 – "But China": fear of Beijing, Anthropic and Amodei, Jeff Ding, and the chip-control backfire1:10:48 – Nonzero: game theory, common threats, and the takeoff scenarios that worry Bob most1:23:22 – Attribution error and projection, Ed Fredkin's old warning, and the actual first movePaying It Forward: Garrison Lovely, author of the forthcoming Obsolete (Nation Books) and the Substack of the same name on the AI race.Recommendations:Bob: Pantheon, the animated series on uploaded minds and emergent superintelligence; and the Crowded House song "Don't Dream It's Over."Kaiser: Kyle Chan's High Capacity podcast, especially his episode with Carnegie's Matt Sheehan, "Is China Getting Worried About AI?"; and Patrick O'Brian's Aubrey-Maturin novels.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    Spoilers for Disclosure Day. Jason and Rachel review Disclosure Day, Steven Spielberg's new alien movie starring Emily Blunt, Josh O'Connor, Colman Domingo, Colin Firth, and Wyatt Russell. There are things to like here: Emily Blunt is great, Colman Domingo remains a human weighted blanket, and a few sequences feel like vintage Spielberg. But the movie's big alien reveal, TV station climax, confusing character logic, and “world peace / just listen” ending left us deeply frustrated.

    Artificial intelligence is changing the rules of software investing, forcing private equity firms to adapt quickly and carefully. In this episode, we're joined by the team from Code & Co., one of the leading AI and tech due diligence firms serving private equity investors, to discuss how AI is transforming the way software companies are evaluated before a deal closes. Jim sits down with Code & Co. Managing Partners Dan Bender and Lukas Ingelheim along with Head of North America Kirby Montgomery to explain why tech due diligence is no longer just a checkbox exercise. Dan, Lukas and Kirby walk us through real-world examples of overengineered software, cloud optimization opportunities worth millions of dollars, and how PE firms can identify companies that are positioned to thrive rather than become the next commoditized AI feature. Whether you're a private equity investor, software executive, operating partner, founder, or technology leader, this episode offers a practical look at what separates durable software businesses from those at risk of being disrupted. About Code & Co.: Founded in 2016, Code & Co. has close to 1000 engagements behind them for more than 200 global funds.

This week we start with a genuine feel-good moment: cross-cultural chaos and connection across North America, from Cape Verde stunning Spain in Atlanta to a German tourist discovering Helen, GA and a Japanese visitor writing a love letter to free chips and salsa. Sometimes the world is actually kind of great. Then we get into it. AI is officially the number one reason people are losing their jobs in 2026. We dig into the 2026 International AI Safety Report, which finds that AI is impressive in some areas and genuinely concerning in others. These tools might be making us worse at the very things we're supposed to be getting better at.

In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, Charles takes us through the extraordinary journey it took to make that dream a reality — from the US Navy to the National Air Intelligence Center to 18 years as a Senior Operations Officer at the CIA living and working across Europe the Middle East and Asia. He pulls back the curtain on CIA interrogation tactics and how to spot when someone is lying — skills he used in some of the most sensitive operations conducted at the direction of the President.

    As SpaceX stock soars, we talk IPOs for space and beyond. We also focus on the market's reaction to a new Iran ceasefire agreement, the implications of the highly anticipated SpaceX IPO, and what these developments may signal about broader market conditions. We look over how IPOs have historically performed, why many high-profile offerings struggle after their debut, and whether SpaceX's valuation reflects genuine business fundamentals or investor enthusiasm. We also examined the economic impact of falling oil prices, shifting inflation expectations, upcoming Federal Reserve policy decisions, consumer spending trends, and why correlations often drive market narratives.  We discuss... The market's positive reaction to a renewed Iran ceasefire and the resulting drop in oil prices. Breakdown of the SpaceX IPO, its first-day performance, and why retail investors were eager to participate. How IPOs work and why many high-profile offerings historically decline after going public. Why company insiders often choose to take businesses public when valuations are most favorable. Past IPOs including Uber, Meta, Coinbase, Robinhood, and Rivian to illustrate common post-IPO price patterns. Whether SpaceX's valuation is justified by the strength of its Starlink business and launch operations. OpenAI, Anthropic IPO expectations and concerns about AI company valuations. How large IPOs can act as liquidity drains by attracting capital away from existing market leaders. Elon Musk becoming the world's first trillionaire and what that signifies for investor sentiment. How falling energy prices could help reduce inflation and improve economic conditions. Upcoming Federal Reserve leadership changes and expectations for future interest rate policy. Consumer spending trends and the role of Baby Boomer wealth in supporting economic activity. Why investors should focus on correlations rather than assuming direct causation in market movements.

    Selling your company can look like "the big win." The check clears. The headlines sound nice. Maybe someone even posts a tasteful LinkedIn announcement with way too many gratitude emojis. Then comes the hard part: contracts, systems, data, cyber risk, SOPs, people, processes, and the tiny little question that can wreck a deal: Can this business actually run without you? In this episode of The Liquid Lunch Project Podcast, Matt sits down with Mark Sims, Managing Principal of Technology Solutions at ConsultMSG, to talk about what business owners need to fix before private equity shows up with a checkbook. Yes, they talk about what happens after a private equity deal closes. New boss. New board. New systems. New rules. Weird vibes in the Monday meeting. But the bigger warning is this: if your business is held together by handshake deals, tribal knowledge, messy data, and "Judy knows where that file is," you may not get the valuation, speed, or smooth transition you were hoping for. Mark breaks down how technology, clean data, documented processes, AI, cybersecurity, and basic operational discipline can protect company value before a sale…or quietly drain it when buyers start looking under the hood.

    In this episode of the Play Bigger Podcast, I'm sharing a hard truth that I believe many ambitious entrepreneurs need to hear right now: AI is not fixing broken businesses. It's exposing them faster.Over the past few years, I've tested countless tools, platforms, automations, and AI solutions. Like many business owners, I believed that adding more technology would create more leverage. Instead, I found myself dealing with more dashboards, more subscriptions, more confusion, and more operational complexity.What I realized is that most businesses don't have an automation problem. They have a clarity problem.Before you automate anything, you need a clear foundation. Otherwise, you're simply automating confusion.In this episode, I break down the exact framework I use to simplify operations, create scalable systems, and build a business that generates freedom instead of exhaustion.Things I Cover In This Episode:Why AI can amplify business problems instead of solving themThe hidden cost of stacking too many tools and systemsHow operational complexity creates decision fatigueThe difference between reactive businesses and intentional businessesWhy clarity must come before automationMy Five C Framework for creating scalable systems:ClarityHow to identify which tools are creating leverage and which are creating noiseWhy simplifying your business can increase both your energy and your incomeThe key to building a business that creates more freedom, not more overwhelmIf you've been feeling buried under systems, software, automation, or operational chaos, this episode will help you step back, simplify, and focus on what actually moves the needle.---

    The AI Control Loop: AI Discovery isn't just AI - with Tim Ebbers of Wallarm

    Today, we are dropping another episode in our series The AI Control Loop, How enterprises govern the AI they've already deployed - sponsored by our friends at Wallarm.Wallarm is the AI Control Platform for Enterprise AI, protecting every AI workload, API, and application in production, giving CISOs the governance they need and CIOs the speed they demand. Organizations choose Wallarm for a complete inventory of APIs, AI agents, and AI apps, patented AI/ML-based threat detection and blocking that operates at production traffic speeds.We all know that you can't secure what you can't see, which is why AI discovery is a first principle for AI security, but what's really required for AI discovery? It's more than just LLMs and agents. Today's episode is entitled AI Discovery isn't just AI, and joining us is Tim Ebbers, Field CTO at Wallarm. Tim and I discuss the real requirements for AI discovery, and why the connections between assets and infrastructure are part of the puzzle.QuestionsSecurity teams often say, “You can't secure what you can't see.” In the context of AI, what exactly do they need to see? What supporting infrastructure matters most when mapping AI risk, such as APIs, cloud services, Kubernetes workloads, data stores, identities, and external integrations?Where does shadow AI typically appear first inside an enterprise environment? How can it be prevented?How do relationships between assets change the risk picture? For example, why does it matter which API an agent can call or which data source a workflow can reach?What makes AI discovery harder than traditional application or cloud asset discovery? What are the similarities and differences?How should organizations prioritize what they find? Is every AI asset equally risky?What does “continuous discovery” mean in a world where AI services can be deployed, connected, or changed in minutes?Once an organization has visibility into its AI footprint, what's next? What are the biggest gaps in today's AI security programs?Linkshttps://www.wallarm.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/tebbers/Full AbstractMost security teams know that you can't secure what you can't see. In the context of AI, that rule turns out to be a lot harder to satisfy than it sounds.AI discovery isn't just a matter of cataloging your LLMs and agents. The real picture includes the APIs those agents call, the data sources they reach, the infrastructure they run on, and all the AI that got deployed without anyone telling security. Building that picture requires understanding relationships, not just inventories, because risk doesn't live in assets in isolation. It lives in what those assets can do together.In this episode, Tim Ebbers, Field CTO at Wallarm, examines what a complete AI control loop actually requires at the discovery stage: what needs to be visible, why the connections between assets change the risk calculation, where shadow AI tends to appear first and how it becomes unmanaged risk, and what makes AI discovery structurally different from traditional cloud or application discovery. It also looks at what organizations should do once discovery is in place, and where the biggest gaps remain in AI security programs today.If your team is building toward continuous AI governance, this is where that work starts.Our Sponsors:* Check out Cash App and use my code CASHAPP10 for a great deal: https://click.cash.app/ui6m/mt82fpxl #CashAppPod.

    A researcher, Edtech expert, and PhD candidate studying the intersection of AI, learning, and human experience, Kris brings a rare combination of academic rigor and real-world application to the question every principal is quietly asking: is all this technology actually helping? His work with Play Piper puts him at the front lines of how kids interact with screens — and what happens when that interaction goes wrong. Kris has been studying and speaking about screen usage in learning environments since 2013, long before most districts had a policy on the subject. AI policy still doesn't exist in most school districts in 2026. Meta and YouTube just lost a major court case over intentionally building products harmful to kids. And the principals who bought Edtech tools during COVID are still living with implementations they never had time to design properly. Kris returns to the RuckusCast to name the problem clearly: technology in schools is being treated as the experience instead of a tool within the experience — and that distinction is costing students more than anyone wants to admit.

    Medical students who skip writing their own reflections are not lazy, they are surviving an irrational system. Kathleen Muldoon, a coach and professor, returns to discuss what student AI use in medical education actually reveals about the curriculum, the hidden incentives behind it, and why she calls students in instead of catching them. This episode is based on her article "Driving medical education reform through intellectual honesty," published on KevinMD. You will hear why pass-fail courses inside graded curricula push students to put their energy elsewhere, why the hidden curriculum speaks louder than the syllabus, and what students disclosed when she asked them what was going on. You will learn what her workshops are designed to do that AI cannot, why she believes AI cannot teach empathy, and what a more humane medical education would actually require. Press play to find out why she thinks the next generation of clinicians is not the problem, and what the systems training them must change to produce humane physicians.

    Right now there's a wave building in our industry, and most advisors are standing on the beach pretending it isn't there.AI isn't coming. It's here. And the gap between the advisors who lean into it and the ones who keep waiting is about to get a lot wider.In this episode, I sit down with Michael Hyatt — New York Times bestselling author, longtime entrepreneur, and someone who's quietly built an entire team of AI agents running inside his own business.We get into the tension every financial advisor is thinking about: privacy, client data, compliance, technical knowledge, and where AI actually fits in a relationship-driven business.Michael also explains where this is all headed, and why the biggest opportunity may not be replacing human work, but creating more space for the work only humans can do.If you've been telling yourself you'll figure AI out later, or that it doesn't really apply to a business like ours, this conversation might change your mind about how much time you actually have.3 Insights From This Week's Episode…#1.) The Story That's Quietly Costing Advisors Their FutureWhen AI comes up, a lot of smart, successful advisors check out. They decide it's too technical, too risky, or too late to start. Michael explains why that reaction has nothing to do with age or ability, and everything to do with something far more dangerous.#2.) The Client Data Objection Everyone Hides Behind"I deal with people's finances, so AI doesn't apply to me." It's the most common wall advisors put up, and on the surface it sounds responsible. We dig into why that thinking is more outdated than you'd expect, and what hiding behind it might be costing you.#3.) The New Advantage in a Relationship Business Financial advice is built on trust, presence, and human connection. We explore why AI may actually increase the value of great advisors by helping them show up more prepared, more focused, and more available for the work only humans can do.SHOW NOTEShttps://bradleyjohnson.com/173FOLLOW BRAD JOHNSON ON SOCIALXInstagramLinkedInFOLLOW DBDL ON SOCIAL:YouTubeTwitterInstagramLinkedInFacebookDISCLOSURE DBDL podcast episode conversations are intended to provide financial advisors with ideas, strategies, concepts and tools that could be incorporated into their business and their life.

    June 17, 2026: Anthropic's Claude Fable 5 and Mythos models were pulled after a government directive raised concerns about jailbreak risks, creating a wake-up call for companies building critical workflows on frontier AI models they don't actually control. Then I get into Meta's AI transformation struggles, including layoffs, employee reassignments, low morale, surveillance concerns, and what leaders can learn from one of the most visible AI change-management failures so far. Finally, I break down PwC's 2026 Global AI Jobs Barometer, which shows that AI isn't collapsing the labor market but splitting it into two tracks: roles where AI increases the value of human judgment, and roles where AI makes work easier for non-experts to perform.

    What does it take to move from AI experimentation to real business impact? Recording during Google Cloud Summit London 2026 at Tobacco Dock, I had the opportunity to speak with Maureen Costello, Vice President for UKI and Sub-Saharan Africa at Google Cloud, about one of the biggest shifts currently taking place across technology and business. After years of discussion around generative AI, the focus is now turning toward agentic AI and how organizations can put these capabilities to work in practical, measurable ways. Maureen offered a fascinating view from the front line of AI adoption, sharing how businesses across financial services, retail, government, and other sectors are beginning to move beyond pilots and proof-of-concept projects. We discussed how AI is helping organizations improve customer experiences, increase productivity, strengthen decision-making, and create new opportunities for growth. From helping banks tackle financial crime and deliver smarter customer services to supporting government departments in modernizing public services, the conversation is filled with examples that bring the technology to life. We also explored why the UK is so well positioned for the next chapter of AI adoption. With world-class research, exceptional talent, and ambitious investment across both the public and private sectors, Maureen believes the UK has a genuine opportunity to remain at the forefront of AI innovation. She also explained why skills development, data readiness, security, governance, and trust will play such an important role as organizations begin introducing AI agents into everyday workflows. What I particularly enjoyed was discussing the human side of this transition. As AI becomes embedded into business operations, how should leaders prepare their teams? What separates organizations that achieve meaningful outcomes from those that struggle to move beyond the early excitement? And how can businesses strike the right balance between innovation, responsibility, and long-term value? Whether you're following the announcements from Google Cloud Summit London, building your own AI strategy, or simply trying to understand where this technology is heading next, this conversation offers valuable insight into one of the most talked-about topics in business today. What role do you think agentic AI will play inside your organization over the next 12 months, and are businesses finally moving from curiosity to meaningful adoption?
