These days, AI is everywhere, and it's increasingly hard to separate the gains from the slop. With that in mind, we're re-releasing my conversation with Stanford Law professor Daniel Ho on the future of AI and the law. When we look for applications where AI can deliver measurable benefit, the legal profession stands out, both for its potential gains in efficiency and equity, and for how much is at stake if we get it wrong. Dan's research — from using AI to identify racist property covenants buried in county deed records, to mapping obsolete regulations that waste thousands of hours of government time — shows what's possible when the technology is applied with rigor and purpose. If you're curious about how AI can serve both justice and good governance, this one is well worth another listen. Have a question for Russ?

Law professor Julian Nyarko has drawn attention for his studies using large language models to investigate and improve legal education and explore AI's biases. He hopes AI can become a reliable, always-on legal learning and assistance tool to lower costs and expand access to legal services. In one recent study, he asked a group of law professors to evaluate written answers to student questions. Three-quarters of the time, the professors preferred AI-generated answers to those of their human colleagues. “AI is good at law,” Nyarko says, the challenge now is to use it most effectively, he tells host Russ Altman in this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcast.

Hour Three of The Marc Cox Morning Show delivers foreign policy, local politics, and cutting-edge tech all in one stretch. Bill Eigel joins to fire back at the dark-money rhino mailer attacking his St. Charles County executive campaign, tracing it directly to a St. Louis city Democrat PAC nervous about his conservative tax-cutting agenda and opposition to a city-county merger. Former Senator Jim Talent breaks down the renewed strikes on Iran after Tehran violated the ceasefire by shooting at ships again, plus a NATO wake-up call with Germany stepping up and Spain facing consequences for freeloading. AI governance expert Jim Malachowski walks through Illinois's tough new AI regulation law and the looming national debate over federal versus state oversight, while Kim raises real concerns about AI-generated fake images of children. Kim on a Whim closes the hour with Texas's investigation into a hospital advertising birth tourism packages in Mexico. Faith, family, freedom, and hard truths from the border to the boardroom. The Marc Cox Morning Show keeps conservatives informed on every front.

AI governance expert Jim Malachowski joins the show to unpack Illinois's new AI regulation law, signed by Governor Pritzker, which adds annual audits and financial penalties beyond what California and New York already require. Malachowski, chairman of AIQA Global, explains his company's role as an independent AI governance rating agency — think a FICO score for artificial intelligence — and previews a coming shift toward mobile AI in self-driving cars, military drones, and eventually humanoid robots. Marc presses him on whether AI regulation should be left to blue states like Illinois, New York, and California, or whether the federal government needs to step in for national uniformity, a tension Malachowski says will play out over the next two years. Kim raises real parental fears about AI-generated fake images of children and who's held accountable when the technology is misused. The Marc Cox Morning Show tackles the promise and the peril of AI head-on. Kim on a Whim is coming up next, covering the Texas governor's investigation into birth tourism billboards in Mexico.

Zohran Mamdani is being called a kingmaker, and after this week's New York primaries it's easy to see why. Is the Democratic Party fundamentally shifting left, or are voters simply desperate for an alternative to the 70-year-old status quo?This week on Vibes Only, we break down the massive shockwaves from the New York primary elections. From Mayor Mamdani's new proported kingmaker status to the DSA's historic triple-crown victories upending powerful establishment machines, we look at how young, energetic hustlers are changing the face of campaigning in 2026.Plus, we dive into the heartbreaking $27 million super PAC blitz that took down AI-reform candidate Alex Bores, why Trump is blocking his own bipartisan housing bill over the SAVE Act, and the terrifying reality of national security flying blind after the expiration of FISA. Pull up a chair cause the vibes are chaotic this week, but the analysis we are bringing - it is sharp.Vibes Only is a weekly political podcast hosted by Brian Derrick and Glennis Meagher, two political operatives turned creators breaking down the news of the week in politics, elections, and culture with new episodes EVERY Thursday morning!EPISODE LINKSToday, Explained Episode with Alex BoresTulsi Gabbard Expose by The Washington PostOATH CANDIDATE OF THE WEEKSend us a text!Watch us on YoutubeFollow us on Instagram Oh, we're on TikTok tooFollow Brian on IG Follow Glennis on IG
Jeremy Bearer-Friend and Sarah Polcz discuss their proposal to require leading AI firms to pay taxes in equity, reshaping how the gains from AI are distributed --- Artificial intelligence is rapidly reshaping the economy, but two Stanford Law alumni argue that existing tax frameworks are failing to capture—or fairly distribute—the value it generates. Jeremy Bearer-Friend, JD '14, a professor at George Washington University Law School, and Sarah Polcz, JSM '12, JSD '20, a professor at UC Davis School of Law, join co-host Professor Richard Thompson Ford to discuss a proposal that would require leading AI companies to pay a portion of their taxes in equity rather than cash, with those shares placed into a public trust, and their work with U.S. Senate members to make this happen. The conversation explores a central question: If AI was built on vast amounts of human-generated text, images, and creative work, who is entitled to share in the wealth it produces? Bearer-Friend and Polcz connect their proposal to broader concerns about wealth concentration and whether the gains from AI will flow to a narrow class of tech executives and investors—or to the public at large. The episode also examines how an equity-based tax could work in practice, including questions of governance, political insulation, and the mechanics of a sovereign wealth fund, and what it would mean to give the public a direct stake in the companies shaping the future of artificial intelligence.

The U.S. government reportedly ordered Anthropic to suspend access to two of its newest frontier AI models, Fable 5 and Mythos 5, citing national security concerns tied to a possible jailbreak. Anthropic complied, but pushed back on the reasoning, arguing that the reported behavior was narrow and that similar capabilities already exist in other advanced AI models.In this episode, Tom, Scott, and Kevin discuss why treating AI capabilities like export-controlled technology may create more problems than it solves. The conversation connects today's AI restrictions to earlier fights over encryption export controls, hacker tools, and government attempts to regulate technical capability by banning access. The bigger concern: defenders may lose access to tools that help them find, fix, and test vulnerable code while attackers simply move to other models or providers.The team also looks at what this means for businesses using cloud-based AI tools. If an AI service can disappear because of a government order, vendor decision, or geopolitical restriction, security and engineering teams need alternatives, back-out plans, and a realistic “ripcord” strategy for mission-critical workflows.Special thanks to Guardsquare for sponsoring this episode!

Is the AI trade getting crowded?This week on Hivemind, Delphi Ventures Partner Tommy Shaughnessy joins the show to debate one of the biggest questions in technology and markets today: can OpenAI and Anthropic justify their valuations, or is open-source AI about to take market share?The team discusses enterprise AI spending, the economics of frontier models, the rise of open-source alternatives, SpaceX's IPO, the AI bubble debate, Hyperliquid's continued growth, and the latest developments surrounding Zcash and the private Bitcoin thesis.TIMESTAMPS00:00:00 Introduction & Market Outlook00:05:00 OpenAI, Anthropic & Enterprise AI Spending00:08:53 Open Source vs Frontier Models00:24:41 Are We In An AI Bubble?00:35:17 SpaceX IPO & Equity Issuance00:38:13 AI Regulation & Political Risk00:53:36 Hyperliquid & HYPE01:04:14 Zcash & The Private Bitcoin Thesis01:13:16 Final ThoughtsLink to our Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@Delphi_DigitalFollow Ceteris: https://x.com/ceterispar1bus Follow Jason: https://x.com/3xliquidated Follow Tommy: https://x.com/Shaughnessy119Follow Jose: https://x.com/ZeMariaMacedoFollow Kevin: https://x.com/Kevin_Kelly_II
If you've ever wondered what your insurance agency is really worth in today's market, and whether now is the right time to sell, this episode cuts straight to the chase. Brandon Schuh and Nick Hartmann sit down with two sharp industry voices: Varada Bhat, Senior Correspondent at the Financial Times' P&C Specialist, and James Graham, Managing Director at MarshBerry, the nation's leading M&A advisory firm for insurance brokerages. Together, they untangle the intersection of AI disruption, carrier strategy, and brokerage valuations in what is shaping up to be one of the most pivotal moments in the history of independent insurance distribution.Varada Bhat opens the conversation with a ground-level view of where the personal lines market stands today, transitioning out of a hard market cycle, into a softer, more competitive landscape where carrier retention has become the new growth strategy. She digs into State Farm's sweeping workforce realignment, the broader shift away from the captive agent model across carriers like Allstate and Nationwide, and how AI is splitting the industry into two camps: those stuck in pilot mode and those already deploying agentic AI across claims and operations. The critical takeaway? Underwriting discipline and customer service still matter more than any algorithm.James Graham follows with the kind of inside-baseball analysis you can only get from someone doing valuation work every single day. He breaks down why private brokerage multiples have held steady even as public broker valuations dropped more than 20% from their March 2025 peak, and why that divergence makes sense. He lays out what buyers are really paying for right now (organic growth, scale, and retention), why the softening market is the real driver of multiple compression, not AI, and why the fundamentals of the insurance brokerage business remain among the strongest of any industry. For agency owners wondering whether to sell now or wait, his perspective is a must-hear.Chapters00:00 Introduction 04:47 Varada Bhat Interview Begins: P&C Market Overview06:28 Carrier Retention as the New Growth Strategy07:24 AI in Insurance: Pilot Phase vs. Deployed Reality09:48 State Farm, Allstate & the Decline of Captive Agents11:55 AI Automation: Simple vs. Complex Insurance Products14:22 Lemonade, Root & the Insuretech Valuation Reality Check16:55 Geico Hires Goldman Sachs CMO: UX and Millennial Strategy19:47 AI Regulation in Insurance: NAIC Guidelines & State Laws21:33 Who's Best Positioned to Win the AI Era?24:40 Personal Cyber Policies & Consumer Data Privacy26:23 Insurance Affordability as a Political Issue32:29 James Graham Interview Begins: MarshBerry Origin Story34:35 Public vs. Private Broker Valuation Divergence39:16 What Buyers Are Really Looking For Today: Organic Growth41:55 Private Equity Activity: Strategic vs. Dry Powder Deals43:58 EBITDA Multiples: Are 11-12x the New Normal?46:06 Debt Leverage, Hold Times & PE Exit Bottlenecks48:02 AI's Role in Brokerage Multiple Compression50:10 Revenue Per Employee & the AI Productivity Argument52:58 Regulation as Insurance's AI Moat55:26 Client Retention Post-Acquisition: What Really Drives It57:48 2026–2027 Outlook: Will Big Blockbuster Deals Continue?Connect with RiskCellar:Website: https://www.riskcellar.com/James GrahamWebsite: https://www.marshberry.com/about/our-team/james-graham/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/james-graham-b91a5214Varada BhatLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/varada-bhatBrandon Schuh:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61552710523314LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brandon-stephen-schuh/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/schuhpapa/Nick Hartmann:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nickjhartmann/

Keach Hagey addresses the development of ChatGPT and the subsequent power struggle at OpenAI. She explains how Altman's shift from prioritizing AI regulation to commercial monetization triggered a conflict with the nonprofit board, leading to his temporary firing. The board cited management issues and Altman's tendency to "bend the truth" as reasons for the dismissal. Additionally, a major falling out occurred with Elon Musk, who unsuccessfully attempted to take control of OpenAI or merge it with Tesla. The interview concludes with unresolved warnings from AI pioneers regarding the existential dangers of AGI. (4/4)MQY 1956
