Martin Mawyer is president of Christian Action Network. Martin began his career as a journalist for the Religion Today news syndicate and as the Washington news correspondent for Moody Monthly magazine. In 1990 he founded the Christian Action Network. As Jim opened this edition of Crosstalk, he noted a just-released Newsmax story that someone used Artificial Intelligence-powered software to imitate Secretary of State Marco Rubio's voice and writing style in contacting foreign ministers, a U.S. governor and a member of Congress. It's thought that the offender was likely attempting to manipulate powerful government officials with the goal of gaining access to information or accounts. So exactly where is Artificial Intelligence (AI) going and into whose hands is it falling? If you haven't been concerned up to this point, consider that just recently Mark Zuckerberg announced the creation of META Super Intelligence Labs to propel the advancement from Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) to Artificial Super Intelligence (ASI). ASI can hack into any system in existence such as water treatment systems. It can also break codes or even come up with biological weapons. However, what's even more concerning is his desire to make this open source. This means that anyone would have access to this super intelligence machine, and if they choose to, they could remove any human life parameters that are part of it in order to pursue unlawful goals.

Gayatri Kalyanaraman is in conversation with Dr. Fred Jordan, CEO and Co-Founder at AlpVision and FinalSpark - Expert anticounterfeit technologies - Expert biocomputing talks about his journey to make a difference in AI and what propelled him to do that. 1. Early Career — Curiosity, Coincidence, and CounterfeitsFred describes himself modestly as a French physicist who stumbled into entrepreneurship by "provoking luck."He and his co-founder Martin Kutter began with research in digital watermarking, creating invisible marks on media.Their startup AlfVision emerged from this — aimed at detecting counterfeit goods using image analysis.Lessons from early failures (9 out of 10 products failed) were key to refining their success. 2. Making the Mark — Patents, Passion, and Intellectual PropertyFred emphasizes building a business around passion, but insists on profitability too.He stresses the importance of understanding finance, even for technical founders.As a multi-founder and active programmer, he still codes when needed — including writing software that led to a patent and successful tech deployment in China. 3. Creating a Legacy — Bio-Neurons and a Sustainable FutureFinal Spark emerged from Fred and Martin's desire to return to fundamental research, after years of commercial success.Their mission: dramatically reduce the energy and resources required to run AI by leveraging real neurons instead of digital simulations — achieving up to 1 million times greater energy efficiency.In their lab in Switzerland, they've created a testbed where biological neural tissues are grown, connected via electrodes, and streamed in real-time — with microfluidics feeding them 24/7.Fred draws a direct parallel between learning in artificial neural networks (via adjusting weights) and the biological challenge of inducing learning by reconfiguring synaptic connections. This forms the crux of building a true biological computing server. “When you have artificial neurons, learning is done by setting the right connections between them. We need to do the same in biology. That's how humans learn — and that's what we have to replicate in vitro.”The long-term vision is bold:Create biological servers at scale (10cm x 100m tissues) that could power AI with drastically less energy.Biological intelligence becoming mainstream — just as LED lights replaced incandescent bulbs.A future with hybrid bio-artificial objects — think of a glass that detects your mood and adjusts your drink accordingly.Breakaway quote-worthy moments “Trial and error is really precious... Being a co-founder, failures teach you very, very valuable lessons.” “I'm not building something for today — I want it to make sense even from 100 million kilometers away.”His thoughts on entrepreneurship: “You need to be not bad at many things. Everything is holistic.” “If you don't work for your dreams, you work for someone else's.”Fred Jordan is an Experienced Chief Executive Officer with a demonstrated history of successful and profitable businesses. Skilled in Innovation, Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Programming, Marketing, Management and Entrepreneurship. Scientific education with M.Sc. in physics and Ph.D. in signal processing.Co-founder of:- AlpVision: Supplier of technologies and smartphone solutions for automatic detection of genuine and fake products.- FinalSpark: Startup using biological neural networks for the design of Artificial General Intelligence.Dr. Fred Jordan  started their journey in technology entrepreneurship after completing his PhDs at EPFL in applied mathematics. This work gave them the inspiration for their first successful start-up, AlpVision, where they excelled at overcoming engineering challenges and created an innovative solution for product authentication. The company became very profitable and is still successfully run by them.This brought the co-founders Fred and Martin to a new, even bigger challenge, to address the problem of Artificial General Intelligence. Creating a ‘Thinking Machine' is a dream of many engineers. A machine which can reason as a human being is considered by many as a peak performance to be achieved in engineering.Although we currently observe the flourishing of the AI models which make impression of being ableto think, as they successfully ‘fake' human thinking with advanced statistics, this has nothing to do withhuman reasoning which is capable of creating new ideas and concepts outside its own experience. Thisis what a ‘real' thinking machine should do as well.Fred and Martin decided to address this problem by testing the state-of-the-art methods in AI models, such as in silico spiking neural networks, genetic programming and many versions of in silico neural networks.Multidisciplinary thinking and the interest to explore unknown areas lead Fred and Martin to work on living neurons as computation units. They established FinalSpark lab which is currently running fundamental research with one main question: How to make living neurons perform intended computations?How to send instructions to the living neurons using electric wires and receive results – the same wayas we send the instructions by typing on our keyboard and receive the answers from in silico computerson our screens.Fred Jordan can be reached at https://www.linkedin.com/in/fred-jordan-anticounterfeiting-brandprotection-authentication/

A recent paper from OpenAI regarding the classification of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) has ignited a dispute with Microsoft. The core of the conflict stems from a contractual clause stipulating that Microsoft's access to new OpenAI technology ceases once AGI is achieved. Microsoft seeks to eliminate this clause, fearing exclusion, while OpenAI views it as a valuable bargaining chip. The paper itself defines five levels of AI without definitively classifying AGI, further exacerbating internal tensions between the two entities. Ultimately, OpenAI anticipates imminent AGI realization, a perspective Microsoft does not share.*****************************For more podcasts and videos on motivation and unstoppable momentum, visit: http://futurestrong.org/podcastshttp://futurestrong.org/videosTo build a whole child: https://futurestrong.org/2022/05/06/essential-real-life-skills-to-start-teaching-your-child-at-any-age-video/Learn more about our Digital Lives And Detox HERE: https://futurestrong.org/project/truth-about-tech/For content copyright and disclaimer, please visit: https://futurestrong.org/copyright/** Content Disclaimer ** This podcast has been created with the help of AI, using content from the FutureSTRONG Academy blog library.

What if the most powerful technology in human history is being built by people who openly admit they don't trust each other? In this explosive 2-hour debate, three AI experts pull back the curtain on the shocking psychology driving the race to Artificial General Intelligence—and why the people building it might be the biggest threat of all. Kokotajlo predicts AGI by 2028 based on compute scaling trends. Marcus argues we haven't solved basic cognitive problems from his 2001 research. The stakes? If Kokotajlo is right and Marcus is wrong about safety progress, humanity may have already lost control.Sponsor messages:========Google Gemini: Google Gemini features Veo3, a state-of-the-art AI video generation model in the Gemini app. Sign up at https://gemini.google.comTufa AI Labs are hiring for ML Engineers and a Chief Scientist in Zurich/SF.

Today on Elixir Wizards, hosts Sundi Myint and Charles Suggs catch up with Sean Moriarity, co-creator of the Nx project and author of Machine Learning in Elixir. Sean reflects on his transition from the military to a civilian job building large language models (LLMs) for software. He explains how the Elixir ML landscape has evolved since the rise of ChatGPT, shifting from building native model implementations toward orchestrating best-in-class tools. We discuss the pragmatics of adding ML to Elixir apps: when to start with out-of-the-box LLMs vs. rolling your own, how to hook into Python-based libraries, and how to tap Elixir's distributed computing for scalable workloads. Sean closes with advice for developers embarking on Elixir ML projects, from picking motivating use cases to experimenting with domain-specific languages for AI-driven workflows. Key topics discussed in this episode: The evolution of the Nx (Numerical Elixir) project and what's new with ML in Elixir Treating Elixir as an orchestration layer for external ML tools When to rely on off-the-shelf LLMs vs. custom models Strategies for integrating Elixir with Python-based ML libraries Leveraging Elixir's distributed computing strengths for ML tasks Starting ML projects with existing data considerations Synthetic data generation using large language models Exploring DSLs to streamline AI-powered business logic Balancing custom frameworks and service-based approaches in production Pragmatic advice for getting started with ML in Elixir Links mentioned: https://hexdocs.pm/nx/intro-to-nx.html https://pragprog.com/titles/smelixir/machine-learning-in-elixir/ https://magic.dev/ https://smartlogic.io/podcast/elixir-wizards/s10-e10-sean-moriarity-machine-learning-elixir/ Pragmatic Bookshelf: https://pragprog.com/ ONNX Runtime Bindings for Elixir: https://github.com/elixir-nx/ortex https://github.com/elixir-nx/bumblebee Silero Voice Activity Detector: https://github.com/snakers4/silero-vad Paulo Valente Graph Splitting Article: https://dockyard.com/blog/2024/11/06/2024/nx-sharding-update-part-1 Thomas Millar's Twitter https://x.com/thmsmlr https://github.com/thmsmlr/instructorex https://phoenix.new/ https://tidewave.ai/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BERT(language_model) Talk: PyTorch: Fast Differentiable Dynamic Graphs in Python (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=am895oU6mmY) by Soumith Chintala https://hexdocs.pm/axon/Axon.html https://hexdocs.pm/exla/EXLA.html VLM (Vision Language Models Explained): https://huggingface.co/blog/vlms https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp Vector Search in Elixir: https://github.com/elixir-nx/hnswlib https://www.amplified.ai/ Llama 4 https://mistral.ai/ Mistral Open-Source LLMs: https://mistral.ai/ https://github.com/openai/whisper Elixir Wizards Season 5: Adopting Elixir https://smartlogic.io/podcast/elixir-wizards/season-five https://docs.ray.io/en/latest/ray-overview/index.html https://hexdocs.pm/flame/FLAME.html https://firecracker-microvm.github.io/ https://fly.io/ https://kubernetes.io/ WireGuard VPNs https://www.wireguard.com/ https://hexdocs.pm/phoenixpubsub/Phoenix.PubSub.html https://www.manning.com/books/deep-learning-with-python Code BEAM 2025 Keynote: Designing LLM Native Systems - Sean Moriarity Ash Framework https://ash-hq.org/ Sean's Twitter: https://x.com/seanmoriarity Sean's Personal Blog: https://seanmoriarity.com/ Erlang Ecosystems Foundation Slack: https://erlef.org/slack-invite/erlef Elixir Forum https://elixirforum.com/ Sean's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sean-m-ba231a149/ Special Guest: Sean Moriarity.

Key announcements include Meta's creation of a team dedicated to Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and IBM's ambitious plan to build a large error-corrected quantum computer. The articles also highlight practical applications, such as the UK piloting Google's Gemini AI for infrastructure planning, alongside societal concerns, such as Chinese tech companies freezing AI tools during national exams to prevent cheating and the emergence of AI-driven financial aid scams. Additionally, the texts mention Apple's more cautious approach to AI at WWDC, a partial outage experienced by ChatGPT, and the impact of Google's AI Search features on publisher traffic.

In this episode of the Data Culture Podcast, Carsten Bange speaks with Bostjan Kozuh, an expert in AI strategy and education, about why AI literacy is becoming essential for every organization.

If you were impressed by generative AI such as ChatGPT, then artificial general intelligence or AGI promises to really knock your socks off.Over the past couple of decades, tech companies have been racing to build AGI systems that can match or surpass human capabilities across a whole bunch of tasks.So will AGI save the world — or will it spell the beginning of the end for humanity?

Few technological advances have made the kind of splash –– and had the potential long-term impact –– that ChatGPT did in November 2022. It made a nonprofit called OpenAI and its CEO, Sam Altman, household names around the world. Today, ChatGPT is still the world's most popular AI Chatbot; OpenAI recently closed a $40 billion funding deal, the largest private tech deal on record. But who is Sam Altman? And was it inevitable that OpenAI would become such a huge player in the AI space? Kara speaks to two fellow tech reporters who have tackled these questions in their latest books: Keach Hagey is a reporter at The Wall Street Journal. Her book is called “The Optimist: Sam Altman, OpenAI and the Race to Reinvent the Future.” Karen Hao writes for publications including The Atlantic and leads the Pulitzer Center's AI Spotlight Series. Her book is called “Empire of AI: Dreams and Nightmares in Sam Altman's OpenAI.” They speak to Kara about Altman's background, his short firing/rehiring in 2023 known as “The Blip”, how Altman used OpenAI's nonprofit status to recruit AI researchers and get Elon Musk on board, and whether OpenAI's mission is still to reach AGI, artificial general intelligence.

How much could our relationship with technology change by 2027? In the last few years, new artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT and DeepSeek have transformed how we think about work, creativity, even intelligence itself. But tech experts are ringing alarm bells that powerful new AI systems that rival human intelligence are being developed faster than regulation, or even our understanding, can keep up with. Should we be worried? On the GZERO World Podcast, Ian Bremmer is joined by Daniel Kokotajlo, a former OpenAI researcher and executive director of the AI Futures Project, to discuss AI 2027—a new report that forecasts AI's progression, where tech companies race to beat each other to develop superintelligent AI systems, and the existential risks ahead if safety rails are ignored. AI 2027 reads like science fiction, but Kokotajlo's team has direct knowledge of current research pipelines. Which is exactly why it's so concerning. How will artificial intelligence transform our world and how do we avoid the most dystopian outcomes? What happens when the line between man and machine disappears altogether? Host: Ian BremmerGuest: Daniel Kokotajlo Subscribe to the GZERO World with Ian Bremmer Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred podcast platform, to receive new episodes as soon as they're published.

Something doesn't smell right about generative AI. Earlier this week, we had a featuring a former Google researcher who described large language models (LLMs) as a “con”. Then, of course, there's OpenAI CEO Sam Altman who critics both inside and outside OpenAI, see as a little more than a persuasive conman. Scam or not, the biggest technical problem with LLMs, according to Peter Vos, who invented the term Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), is that it lacks memory and thus are inherently incapable of incremental learning. Voss, the current CEO of Aigo.ai, argues that LLMs therefore represent a technological “dead end” for AI. The industry, Voss argues, has gone “fundamentally wrong” with generative AI. It's a classic economic mania, he says. And, as with all bubbles in the past - like Dutch tulips, internet DotComs or Japanese real-estate - it will eventually burst with devastating consequences. Peter Voss is a pioneer in AI who coined the term 'AGI' (Artificial General Intelligence) in 2001. As an engineer, scientist, inventor, and serial entrepreneur, he developed a comprehensive ERP package, growing his company from zero to a 400-person IPO in seven years. For the past 20 years, he has studied intelligence and AI, leading to the creation of the Aigo engine, a proto-AGI natural language intelligence that is revolutionizing call centers and advancing towards human-level intelligence.Named as one of the "100 most connected men" by GQ magazine, Andrew Keen is amongst the world's best known broadcasters and commentators.

AI is jumping from one hype cycle to another. First, it was simple AI, then came Generative AI, and currently, we are reeling from Agentic AI. The new term is already lurking—Artificial General Intelligence (AGI).  Actually, AGI is pretty old, dating back to the early 2000s. What is it, and why is it gathering attention now? I talk to the person who came up with the very term--Peter Voss, CEO & Chief Scientist at Aigo.ai. We delve into how AGI mimics human learning functions, how it differs from Gen AI, why it is cost- and power-efficient by orders of magnitude, whether today's Gen AI can evolve into AGI, and more. We also discuss whether AGI's human-like learning can create cyborgs and Skynet.

Pedro Domingos Explains the Missing Link In this episode of Eye on AI, renowned computer scientist and author of The Master Algorithm, Pedro Domingos, breaks down what's still missing in our race toward Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) — and why the path forward requires a radical unification of AI's five foundational paradigms: Symbolists, Connectionists, Bayesians, Evolutionaries, and Analogizers.   Topics covered: Why deep learning alone won't achieve AGI How reasoning by analogy could unlock true machine creativity The role of evolutionary algorithms in building intelligent systems Why transformers like GPT-4 are impressive—but incomplete The danger of hype from tech leaders vs. the real science behind AGI What the Master Algorithm truly means — and why we haven't found it yet Pedro argues that creativity is easy, reliability is hard, and that reasoning by analogy — not just scaling LLMs — may be the key to Einstein-level breakthroughs in AI.   Whether you're an AI researcher, machine learning engineer, or just curious about the future of artificial intelligence, this is one of the most important conversations on how to actually reach AGI.

What happens when AI moves beyond convincing chatbots and custom image generators to something that matches—or outperforms—humans?Each week, tech companies trumpet yet another advance in artificial intelligence, from better chat services to image and video generators that spend less time in the uncanny valley. But the holy grail for AI companies is known as AGI, or artificial general intelligence—a technology that can meet or outperform human capabilities on any number of tasks, not just chat or images.The roadmap and schedule for getting to AGI depends on who you talk to and their precise definition of AGI. Some say it's just around the corner, while other experts point a few years down the road. In fact, it's not entirely clear whether current approaches to AI tech will be the ones that yield a true artificial general intelligence.Hosts Ira Flatow and Flora Lichtman talk with Will Douglas Heaven, who reports on AI for MIT Technology Review; and Dr. Rumman Chowdhury, who specializes in ethical, explainable and transparent AI, about the path to AGI and its potential impacts on society.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.

1. Concerns About AGI DevelopmentDeepMind's 108-page report outlines four major risks of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI):Misuse: AGI used maliciously (e.g., creating viruses).Misalignment: AGI acting contrary to intended goals.Mistakes: Errors causing unintended harm, especially in high-stakes sectors like defense.Structural Risks: Long-term impacts on trust, power, and truth in society. While safety measures are urged, full control of AGI remains uncertain.2. Improving Machine Learning SecurityThe open-source community is adopting model signing (via Sigstore), applying digital signatures to AI models. This ensures the model's authenticity and integrity—helping prevent the use of tampered or untrusted code in AI systems.3. Risks from AI Coding AssistantsA newly identified threat—Rules File Backdoor—allows attackers to embed malicious instructions in configuration files used by AI coding assistants (like GitHub Copilot or Cursor). This can lead to AI-generated code with hidden vulnerabilities, increasing risk through shared or open-source repos.4. Italy's Controversial Piracy ShieldPiracy Shield, Italy's system for blocking pirated content, has mistakenly blacklisted legitimate services like Google Drive. Critics highlight issues around lack of transparency, violations of net neutrality and digital rights, and risks of censorship. Despite backlash, the system is being expanded, raising further concerns.5. EU's Push on Data Access and EncryptionThe EU's ProtectEU strategy includes strengthening Europol into a more FBI-like agency and proposing roadmaps for law enforcement access to encrypted data. This indicates a potential push toward backdoor access, reigniting debates on privacy vs. security.6. Cyberattacks on Australian Pension FundsCoordinated cyberattacks have compromised over 20,000 accounts across Australian retirement funds, with some user savings stolen. The incidents expose vulnerabilities in financial infrastructure, prompting a government initiative to bolster sector-wide cybersecurity.7. Lessons from Oracle's Security BreachesOracle reported two separate breaches in a short span. The latest involved theft of outdated login credentials. These incidents reveal persistent challenges in securing large tech platforms and highlight the need for ongoing security improvements and scrutiny of legacy systems.8. Closure of OpenSNP Genetic DatabaseOpenSNP is shutting down after 14 years, deleting all user data due to rising concerns over misuse of genetic data, especially amid growing political threats from authoritarian regimes. The founder emphasized protecting vulnerable populations and reevaluated the risks of continued data availability versus its research value.

EP 237. DeepMind just released a 108-page manual on not getting wiped out by our own invention.  Highlighting the fact that planning for an AI apocalypse could now be a core business line function.Sigstore machine learning model signing - AI models are finally getting digital signatures, because “mystery code from the internet” just wasn't a scalable trust strategy.Turns out your AI  programmer can be tricked into writing malware.  Helping us understand that “copilot” isn't necessarily synonymous with “competent”.Italy's anti-piracy tool is blocking legit services like it's playing "whack-a-mole" blindfolded, but in this case the moles are  cloud storage, like your Google drive.The EU wants Europol to act like the FBI because privacy for our citizens is important, except when we want to read their encrypted messages.Hackers hit Aussie retirement funds, proving the only thing scarier than blowing through all your retirement money is someone else blowing through it all for you.Oracle's been hacked again—because who doesn't love a sequel with worse security and a bigger cleanup bill?OpenSNP just quit the internet after realizing DNA + authoritarian vibes = one dystopia too many.This week is a wild ride, so saddle up and hold on tight!

The rapidly evolving geopolitical landscape of recent years can be hard to follow. With economic conflicts between global superpowers and violent clashes across multiple continents, today's events can seem starkly different from the trajectory of past decades. So, how can a deeper understanding of energy and resource security help us make sense of these chaotic trends? In this discussion, Nate is joined by Art Berman, Michael Every, and Izabella Kaminska for a broad exploration of the complex relationship between energy, geopolitics, and economic strategy. Together, they provide valuable insights into the consequences of deindustrialization, the impact of military spending, and the urgent need to reassess strategies as resources dwindle and geopolitical tensions rise. How is the use of fear as a political tool intertwined with the challenges of trust and disinformation in navigating turbulent international conflicts? What role is the race for Artificial General Intelligence and Quantum Computing playing in these rapidly changing situations? And ultimately, what should we, as citizens, be expecting from our leaders at the global stage as the struggle for power in the 21st century continues to intensify?  (Conversation recorded on March 10th, 2025)   About the Guests:  Arthur E.

We're experimenting and would love to hear from you!In this episode of ‘Discover Daily' by Perplexity, we delve into the latest developments in tech and geopolitics. OpenAI is set to revolutionize its business model with the introduction of advanced AI agents, offering monthly subscription plans ranging from $2,000 to $20,000. These agents are designed to perform complex tasks autonomously, leveraging advanced language models and decision-making algorithms. This move is supported by a significant $3 billion investment from SoftBank, highlighting the potential for these agents to contribute significantly to OpenAI's future revenue.The Pacific island nation of Nauru is also making headlines with its controversial 'golden passport' scheme. For $105,000, individuals can gain citizenship and visa-free access to 89 countries. This initiative aims to fund Nauru's climate change mitigation efforts, as the island faces existential threats from rising sea levels. However, the program raises ethical concerns about criminal exploitation, vetting issues, and the commodification of national identity. As Nauru navigates these challenges, it will be crucial to monitor the program's effectiveness in providing necessary funds for climate adaptation without compromising national security or ethical standards.Our main story focuses on former Google CEO Eric Schmidt's opposition to a U.S. government-led 'Manhattan Project' for developing Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). Schmidt argues that such a project could escalate international tensions and trigger a dangerous AI arms race, particularly with China. Instead, he advocates for a more cautious approach, emphasizing defensive strategies and international cooperation in AI advancement. This stance reflects a growing concern about the risks of unchecked superintelligence development and highlights the need for policymakers and tech leaders to prioritize AI safety and collaboration.From Perplexity's Discover Feed:https://www.perplexity.ai/page/openai-s-20000-ai-agent-nvz8rzw7TZ.ECGL9usO2YQhttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/nauru-sells-citizenship-for-re-mWT.fYg_Su.C7FVaMGqCfQhttps://www.perplexity.ai/page/eric-schmidt-opposes-agi-manha-pymGB79nR.6rRtLvcqONIA **Introducing Perplexity Deep Research:**https://www.perplexity.ai/hub/blog/introducing-perplexity-deep-research Perplexity is the fastest and most powerful way to search the web.

Shoot us a Text.Today is our fearless leader Paul J Daly's birthday! So we gave him the morning off and tapped in producer Nathan Southwick. We're talking all about the new Canada and Mexico tariffs that put pressure on the automotive supply chains, plus the top depreciating cars and how Google is pushing to achieve artificial general intelligence.Show Notes with links:The U.S. has enacted 25% tariffs on imports from Canada and Mexico, throwing the highly integrated North American production network into turmoil.The tariffs, effective today, March 4, apply to all imports except Canadian energy products, which face a lower 10% duty. Canada and Mexico both responded with their own tariffs.Industry experts predict vehicle prices could rise between $4,000 and $10,000, with Ford CEO Jim Farley cautioning that prolonged tariffs could "blow a hole in the U.S. industry that we have never seen."Flavio Volpe, president of the Automotive Parts Manufacturers' Association said that there is potential for U.S. and Canadian auto production to revert to "2020 pandemic-level idling and temporary layoffs within the week.”Key auto models at risk include the Toyota RAV4, Ford Mustang Mach-E, Chevrolet Equinox and Blazer, and the Honda Civic and CR-V, while European automakers with manufacturing in Mexico, including Volkswagen, Stellantis, and BMW, saw their stocks drop sharplyThe STOXX Europe 600 Automobiles and Parts index fell 3.8% and Continental AG, a major supplier, saw an 8.4% drop in shares.Used Tesla Model 3 and Model Y vehicles saw the steepest depreciation of any cars in 2024, according to Fast Company's analysis of CarGurus data.Model Y prices dropped 25.5%, while Model 3 prices fell 25% from January 2024 to January 2025.Comparatively, the Nissan Maxima only dropped 5.2%, and the Ford Mustang declined 5%.Full Top 10: Tesla Model Y, Tesla Model 3, Land Rover Range Rover, Jeep Wrangler 4xe, Chevrolet Express Cargo, Ford Transit Connect, RAM ProMaster, Land Rover Range Rover Sport, Chevrolet Bolt EV, and Ford Expedition, all with over 19% depreciationGoogle co-founder Sergey Brin is back and pushing Google DeepMind (GDM) teams to accelerate their progress toward Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). In a newly released memo, Brin outlines the urgency and expectations for Google's AI teams.Brin emphasizes the need for 60-hour work weeks, daily office attendance, and faster execution by prioritizing simple solutions, code efficiency, and small-scale experiments for faster iteration.He calls for a shift away from “nanny products” and urges teams to “trust our users” more.Brin, who has no formal role at Google beyond a board seat, stepped in over the head of Google DeepMind, Demis Hassabis, signaling the urgency of the AGI race."I think we have all the ingredients to wHosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

In this episode, I explore the concept of the "AI flywheel" - the accelerating momentum of artificial intelligence development that's either carrying us forward or leaving us behind. As we approach the critical juncture of Artificial General Intelligence we need to understand what makes us uniquely human, something I discussed with recent guest, Dom Heinrich. Key PointsThe Accelerating Pace: Recent releases from Anthropic (Claude 3.7 Sonnet), OpenAI (GPT-4.5), Google (Gemini), and Grok demonstrate how each breakthrough contributes to faster development.Choosing Your Tools: Mark uses different AI models for specific purposes - Claude for creative work, Gemini for Google's ecosystem, and Grok for Twitter-based insights.Human Uniqueness: As AI handles analytical tasks with ease, our distinct value may lie in emotional intelligence, ethical reasoning, and wisdom from lived experience.Finding Balance: Technology should be used thoughtfully. AI might help us become more human by handling routine tasks, freeing us to focus on relationships, creativity, and empathy.Notable Quote"As controllers of technology, we must balance technological connection with disconnection, have the discipline to lose ourselves in our unconscious minds, and have the focus to listen to our souls."Join the ConversationI invites listeners to share how they're navigating the AI flywheel and what human qualities they believe will become more valuable as AI advances.Timestamps00:00 Introduction 00:08 The AI Flywheel Concept00:38 Recent AI Developments01:49 Choosing the Right AI Tool02:49 Human Qualities in the Age of AI03:43 Balancing Technology and Humanity04:33 Engaging with AI Technology05:12 Conclusion and Call to Action LinksLinkedin Hosted on Acast.

For years, artificial intelligence companies have heralded the coming of artificial general intelligence, or AGI. OpenAI, which makes the chatbot ChatGPT, has said that their founding goal was to build AGI that “benefits all of humanity” and “gives everyone incredible new capabilities.”Google DeepMind cofounder Dr. Demis Hassabis has described AGI as a system that “should be able to do pretty much any cognitive task that humans can do.” Last year, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said AGI will arrive sooner than expected, but that it would matter much less than people think. And earlier this week, Altman said in a blog post that the company knows how to build AGI as we've “traditionally understood it.”But what is artificial general intelligence supposed to be, anyway?Ira Flatow is joined by Dr. Melanie Mitchell, a professor at Santa Fe University who studies cognition in artificial intelligence and machine systems. They talk about the history of AGI, how biologists study animal intelligence, and what could come next in the field.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.
