Podcasts about Artificial intelligence

Gwendolyn Dolske and Rudy Salo invite Physicist Samir Varma (The Science of Free Will) to discuss how AI reveals our understanding of the classical philosophical debate: Free Will vs Determinism.  What are the possibilities with AI and how can it be useful without disrupting our humanity?  Are we purely material beings interacting with an "alien" intelligence?  If all of our actions and thoughts are caused does that necessarily mean we are not free? Critical Thinking + Practical Philosophy + Science.  Get Samir's book: The Science of Free Will.

What does it really take to be a CISO the business can rely on? In this episode, Sean Martin shares insights from a recent conversation with Tim Brown, CISO at SolarWinds, following his keynote at AISA CyberCon and his role in leading a CISO Bootcamp for current and future security leaders. The article at the heart of this episode focuses not on technical skills or frameworks, but on the leadership qualities that matter most: context, perspective, communication, and trust.Tim's candid reflections — including the personal toll of leading through a crisis — remind us that clarity doesn't come from control. It comes from connection. CISOs must communicate risk in ways that resonate across teams and business leaders. They need to build trusted relationships before they're tested and create space for themselves and their teams to process pressure in healthy, sustainable ways.Whether you're already in the seat or working toward it, this conversation invites you to rethink what preparation really looks like. It also leaves you with two key questions: Where do you get your clarity, and who are you learning from? Tune in, reflect, and join the conversation.

A website's success is determined not just by how it looks, but "how it operates."Foundational SEO: Images and Site Speed• Website Speed: A fast-loading website is paramount for user experience across all devices (desktop, mobile, tablet).• Image Compression: Before uploading, all images should be compressed using a tool like compressor.io. Large image files significantly slow down page load times. ◦ An example was given: 50 products, each with 5 variations and a 5MB image size, quickly compounds into a massive data load that cripples site speed (5MB x 5 variations x 50 products).• Image File Naming: File names must be descriptive and keyword-rich. A file named red-cotton-socks.jpg provides algorithmic context, whereas photo-123.jpeg has "no context... no value... no search traffic."• Alternative Text (Alt Text): SEO-optimized alt text is crucial. It describes the image for screen readers (improving accessibility) and for search engines, providing additional contextual relevance for keywords.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Content as a Cornerstone of AttractionThe primary method for optimizing a site and attracting visitors is to create high-value content.• The Visitor Journey: The goal is to convert visitors into readers, then into "clickers," and finally into "action takers."• Pre-Purchase Content Strategy: For a startup or a new product launch (e.g., a membership program), the strategy should focus on building infrastructure and anticipation. ◦ Create content that educates the audience on the program before it launches. ◦ Examples include offering a quiz, a survey, a checklist, or an onboarding guide in exchange for an email signup.• Multi-Format Content: A powerful strategy involves creating content in multiple formats. ◦ Record a podcast discussing a topic, then transcribe it into a full blog post. ◦ This provides two links and two formats (audio and text) on the same topic, doubling the online footprint. Over two and a half months, this can result in 20 distinct pieces of information online.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------The Evolution of Search: From Ranking to Brand MentionsThe traditional concept of "ranking" on Google is becoming outdated.• Google recently removed pagination parameters (the num=100 parameter), making it harder to appear on subsequent search pages and limiting how AI servers scrape data.• The new paradigm is to focus on earning brand mentions on AI platforms like ChatGPT.• This is achieved by providing comprehensive, evidence-backed content in multiple formats (text, audio, video). A competitor with a blog, podcast, and video on a topic will have a significant advantage over one with just a blog.Tune in for more of these search engine marketing insights and start monetizing your Shopify SEO or WordPress SEO efforts today.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode of the Power Producers Podcast, host David Carothers and co-host Kyle Houck are joined by Kevin Surace, an inventor, keynote speaker, and the "father of the virtual assistant." They take a high-energy deep dive into the present-day impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on the insurance industry. Kevin explains that the AI revolution is not a future event—it's happening right now. He details how AI is set to transform every aspect of insurance, from automating claims processing and quotation to serving as a powerful co-pilot for salespeople. They discuss practical, actionable ways agents can use AI today to find new clients, refine their sales pitch, and handle objections more effectively. Key Highlights: The AI Revolution is Now, Not Later Kevin Surace delivers his core message with urgency: the "train has left the station" on AI. He argues that professionals must choose to become "robot overlords"—experts in leveraging AI—or they will be crushed by competitors who do. This isn't a future trend to watch; it's a present-day reality that demands immediate adoption. Automating the Insurance Back Office The conversation explores the massive operational impact of AI. Kevin explains how AI is already capable of automating huge portions of the insurance value chain, including claims processing (issuing payments in minutes based on photos) and underwriting (generating complex quotes in real-time), which will drastically lower costs for AI-first companies. AI as a Salesperson's Superpower This highlight covers the practical tools for producers. The discussion details how agents can use AI today as a personal research assistant for meeting prep, a sales coach to "poke holes" in their pitch, and a writing assistant to instantly craft perfect responses to client objections, giving them an insurmountable edge. The Rise of the AI Agent The episode looks at the next evolution of customer interaction: AI agents (video chatbots) with realistic avatars and voice cloning. Kevin discusses his own "virtual Kevin," which holds real-time conversations with website visitors 24/7. They explore how this technology can automate Tier 1 support and even close sales for simpler products, creating new, passive revenue streams.

‘Bundling' is a well-known business strategy, especially in tech, where it's not only used to increase sales and move slow-selling products, but also to tie customers into an ecosystem (such as Apple or Microsoft).So what about all the unbundling that's been happening in agtech recently? While historically we've seen seed companies offer bundled options, such as seeds, crop management, and data products, there is now a trend towards ‘unbundling' in agriculture. This is exemplified by Corteva's recent decision to unbundle its seed and crop protection divisions into two publicly traded companies. Similarly, Farmers Business Network(FBN) has also spun off its global crop solutions business from its digital marketplace. In this episode, Sarah Nolet unpacks the bundling/unbundling dilemma in agtech with Shane Thomas, founder of Upstream Ag Insights and Matthew Pryor, Founding Partner at Tenacious Ventures. They discuss:The strategic impacts of unbundling for companies such as FBN and Corteva, as well as the broader impacts on farmers and markets.The market dynamics that encourage companies to bundle or unbundle.How Large Language Models (LLMs) are being used in agtech, including Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) and other AI frameworks.Shane Thomas' new AskUpstream AI tool.Recent acquisitions in agtech, such as the Growers Edge acquisition of FarmTestUseful Links:What Corteva's Seed and Chemical Split Could Mean For Your Farm, Successful Farming Growers Edge Acquires FarmTest, Growers EdgeFarmers Business Network the latest to spin off company, following Corteva, Kraft Heinz, AgFunderNewsDTN acquires Grain Discovery, DTNAlphaEarth, Google DeepMindKraft Heinz to split a decade after merger in a bid to revive growth, The GuardianFor more information and resources, visit our website. The information in this post is not investment advice or a recommendation to invest.

In this throwback episode of Very Clinical, Zach and Kevin welcome back Charlie Fryer to talk about AI in dentistry. Charlie recently finished a master's thesis about class II caries and AI so he can see applications in dentistry from the perspective of a computer scientist. AI's Current Role in the Dental Industry The guys discuss existing and potential applications of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in dentistry, acknowledging that the future of the profession will be heavily influenced by this technology. Invisalign/Aligners: Kevin notes that companies like Align Technology (Invisalign) are essentially data companies that leverage millions of intraoral scans from iTero to perfect tooth-movement algorithms and quickly generate treatment plans. He suspects much of the initial clin-check setup is AI-driven, with human checks afterward. Design & Manufacturing: AI is already used for the automated design and quick file return for appliances like night guards by companies like SprintRay, as well as for crown design in some printing workflows. Radiographic Diagnosis: The hosts discuss companies that use AI to read and assist in diagnosing findings on X-rays. A key discussion point is how these companies, like DSOs (Dental Service Organizations) such as Heartland or Aspen, acquire the vast amounts of patient data needed to train their models. The hosts posit that users become the "product," providing data with every image analyzed. Future AI Applications and Benefits The conversation shifts to more future-facing applications and the overall impact of AI on dental practice. Net Positive Impact: Zach and Kevin agree that AI will be a net positive for dentistry, primarily as an aid rather than a replacement for clinical judgment, drawing an analogy to how a GPS system advises a driver but the driver still makes the final decisions. Combining Data Sets: Charlie suggests combining various patient data, such as cone beam CTs, intraoral scans, and radiographic images, to develop next-generation tools for complex procedures like implant placement guidance. Practice Optimization: A major area for AI development is practice management. They discuss using machine learning to: Optimize scheduling based on patient history (recurrent neural networks) and procedure mix to maximize profitability and account for unexpected needs. Forecast inventory needs to ensure the practice is always adequately stocked. Financial and Marketing Tools: Patient Financing: Kevin highlights Sun Bit, a payment program that uses an AI component to quickly determine a patient's payment risk and rate by analyzing non-traditional data like utility payments instead of a full credit report. Marketing: AI is already effective in predicting click-through rates for online advertisements, which could be leveraged by dental practices.

Artificial Intelligence has gone off the rails, private equity's running out of cash, and venture capital's throwing billions at anything with a “A.I.” in the name... welcome to Episode 304. Chris, Saied, and Rajeil unpack how Sora 2.0 just erased the line between real and fake, how 41 stocks now make up nearly half the S&P 500, and why every startup pitch sounds like a bad ChatGPT prompt. Sprinkle in a dash of market concentration risk, a splash of FOMO-fueled insanity, and you've got a recipe for the next great bubble.➡️ But the gang doesn't stop there. They dig into the dark side of private equity: the vintage funds running on fumes, the liquidity crunch nobody wants to admit, and what happens when inflated A.I. valuations meet leveraged balance sheets. Mix in a little immature humor, a few uncomfortable truths, and the kind of laughter that comes right before the crash, and you've got the brutally honest breakdown only The Higher Standard can deliver.

Google SEO Best Practices - How to Kickstart Your Holiday Marketing Campaign with Favour Obasi-Ike | Get exclusive SEO newsletters in your inbox.In this episode, recorded live in a Clubhouse audio app room (10/20/22), we dive into the fundamentals of effective digital promotion. Favour Obasi-ike cuts through the noise to reveal that successful marketing isn't a one-time campaign, but a continuous conversation. He emphasizes that the true engine of growth is a simple, powerful focus on answering your audience's questions and solving their genuine problems. This consistent value is what naturally builds brand awareness and creates unstoppable momentum.We explore the critical first step that many miss: listening. No matter your budget, your marketing efforts must begin with listening to your target audience through tools like surveys and social media monitoring. This isn't just about data collection; it's about understanding their deepest needs and the language they use, so you can tailor your content for maximum impact.Our conversation also features guest John, who reinforces that at the heart of it all is storytelling. It's about framing your product or service as the essential solution within a compelling narrative that resonates. We even sparked an interactive poll with our live audience to uncover the most effective marketing channels, highlighting that success comes from knowing where your people are and how they engage.Ultimately, this discussion drives home a non-negotiable truth: establishing authority and trust comes from giving away valuable, comprehensive information. When you focus on being a resource first, you build the foundation that reliably drives conversions.Tune in to learn how to kickstart a marketing strategy that is both authentic and powerfully effective with Google SEO and more!Episode Answer KeyMarketing is described as an ongoing, daily process, much like PR, that focuses on building awareness and solving problems. In contrast, advertising is periodic and represents a specific, time-bound activity that can work in conjunction with broader marketing efforts.The first step in kickstarting a marketing campaign is not spending money, but rather listening, asking questions, and conducting surveys. Favour Obasi-ike emphasizes that this process begins with identifying the questions people are asking to understand their problems and needs.User-Generated Content (UGC) is a marketing method where other people talk about a brand or its products without the brand being directly involved. Examples mentioned by Favour Obasi-ikeare ads from Apple and Coca-Cola that show people using their products in real-time, real-life situations, which helps build brand awareness.Storytelling is powerful because it allows businesses to market themselves without overtly selling. Favour Obasi-ike explains that businesses that tell stories do well because they are gaining attraction, momentum, and connecting with an audience that can relate to the problem and the proposed solution.Testing is an essential and continuous part of any marketing campaign. As Favour Obasi-ikementioned in the context of Facebook advertising, a campaign cannot proceed without testing because it helps tighten up marketing efforts and understand what resonates with the target audience.Apple created a group study concept where they invited people into a store to interact with products without any pressure to buy. Favour Obasi-ike described how, by observing what products, like the iPhone over the iPad, people were most drawn to, they could understand customer needs for portability and functionality, which informed their strategy.John's primary recommendation for a small-budget campaign is to "story your solution." This involves identifying a specific niche and their problems, and then creating video content that tells the story of how that problem was solved for a particular type of person.Favour Obasi-ike advises that there is no such thing as "too much information" if the focus is on serving people and satisfying their needs. Providing comprehensive, valuable content that answers questions establishes top authority, solves problems, and attracts an attentive audience.Businesses use surveys to ask direct questions about the customer experience, such as "How did we serve you?" and "How can we serve you better?" Favour Obasi-ike notes that the responses contain trigger words and key insights that help the business understand customer preferences, which are then used to solve those specific problems in the next marketing campaign.To create an appealing response, Favour Obasi-ike suggests using a variety of formats beyond simple text. These include pictures, video tutorials, infographics, how-tos, carousels, slides, and sound bites.Next Steps for Digital Marketing + SEO Services:>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need SEO Services?

Favour Obasi-ike, a creative entrepreneur and business owner with a background in SEO, Pinterest, and podcasting, shares insights and strategies to help podcasters grow and scale their business through effective email marketing. Key recommendations include the importance of having a dedicated website for a podcast, vocally mentioning the website on the show for transcription purposes, and strategically using keywords in episode titles and descriptions for organic search visibility. Favour Obasi-ike also emphasizes the critical role of email deliverability and managing customer relationships using a reliable email service provider and CRM system, offering specific advice on elements like font size, image resolution, and avoiding underscores in usernames to ensure accessibility and strong organic reach.Next Steps for Digital Marketing + SEO Services:>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need SEO Services?

Favour Obasi-ike argues that every podcast, regardless of its stage, requires a website.• The "Front Door" Analogy: A website is described as the "front door" for the podcast. When a listener hears a URL mentioned in an episode and types it into a new browser tab, they are metaphorically "opening a door" to the podcast's home. The homepage is the initial entry point from which they can explore other content.• Central Hub for Engagement: The website serves as a central location for listeners to connect more deeply with the show. It is the ideal place to host freebies, newsfeeds, blog posts, and, most importantly, an email sign-up form.• Capturing the Audience: By verbally directing listeners to a specific URL on the podcast (e.g., "go to playinc.online/newsfeed"), podcasters create a direct path for listeners to subscribe to an email list. This is demonstrated in real-time by Favour Obasi-ike asking listeners to provide their first name and best email via a link.Strategic Email Marketing for Audience EngagementOnce a system for capturing emails is in place, the focus shifts to strategic content and delivery to build and maintain a relationship with the audience.Content and Subject Line Strategy• Intrigue Over Information: Generic subject lines like "Episode One Introduction" are less effective. A more powerful approach is to use curiosity-piquing subject lines, such as, "Want to know the best way to make a sandwich?"• The "Sandwich" Analogy: This example illustrates that a subject line can use a relatable concept to draw in an audience, even if the episode's core topic is different (e.g., using the layers of a sandwich as an analogy for content marketing). This method attracts both those interested in the literal subject and the curious.• Valuable First Content: A podcaster's first episode, or the first email a new subscriber receives, can be strategically repurposed. For a business, this could be a "Frequently Asked Questions" episode, providing immediate value and educating a potential client about their services.Cadence and ConsistencyBuilding Relationships: The goal of email marketing is customer relationship management (CRM). Consistent communication builds familiarity and trust.Email Frequency: Favour Obasi-ike personally sends a minimum of two emails per month, rarely exceeding four to eight unless for a segmented campaign. The goal is to maintain a presence without overwhelming the audience.The Annual Cycle: Favour Obasi-ike views email as an "orbit," aiming to send 365 emails over time to represent a full cycle. After a year, the strategy should evolve, introducing a "new form" or "new formality" to keep the content fresh.Technical Foundations for Email DeliverabilityEffective email marketing is impossible if the emails do not reach the intended inbox. Favour Obasi-ike highlights several critical technical aspects that directly impact deliverability and audience reception.Platform and Server IntegrityThe Importance of the ESP: The choice of Email Service Provider (ESP) is crucial. A key objective should be to use a platform with a high-quality server to achieve deliverability rates of at least 99.9%.Recommended Platform: Favour Obasi-ike is a partner with and recommends Flodesk, citing its simplicity, authenticity, credibility, and speed. Flodesk's partnership with Amazon Simple Email Service (Amazon SES) is noted as a significant benefit.DNS Authentication: Low email open rates can often be attributed to an incomplete Domain Name Server (DNS) authentication setup. Podcasters must ensure their DNS records are correctly configured to authenticate their sending domain, which helps prevent emails from being flagged as spam.Email Design, Formatting, and ComplianceReadability and Audience Awareness: Email formatting must be tailored to the target audience. For an audience aged 45 and up, a font size of at least 16 pixels is recommended to ensure legibility without requiring readers to "squint."Email Weight: Font size and image size contribute to the overall "weight" of an email. Large files can negatively impact deliverability. An image of 300x300 pixels is preferable to one that is 3,000x3,000 pixels for email content.Spam Score and Testing: Podcasters should proactively test their emails for potential issues. Favour Obasi-ike recommends using a free tool like Mail-tester.com to check for spam scores and compliance issues before sending a campaign. Registering with platforms like Postmaster Google is also advised.SEO and Multi-Platform DiscoverabilityOrganic growth is driven by discoverability. Favour Obasi-ike outlines a comprehensive SEO strategy that extends beyond the podcast itself to all associated digital assets.Keywords and Semantic SearchThe Power of Repetition: Consistently repeating a target key phrase (e.g., "email best practices") across all content formats significantly boosts search visibility. This includes the podcast audio (which becomes a transcript), episode titles, blog posts, video descriptions, image alt text, and the URL itself.Verbal SEO: Vocally stating and phonetically spelling out URLs (e.g., "p l a y i n c . o n l i n e") on the podcast is a critical practice. Modern transcription services can recognize these as links, making them clickable directly from the text version of the episode.Descriptive Titling: Podcast titles should be contextual and keyword-rich. A title like "The Sun Nutrition" is far more discoverable than a generic title like "The Sun Podcast" because it tells potential listeners exactly what the show is about.Social Media and Platform IntegrationUsername Optimization: Avoid using underscores in social media usernames (e.g., on Instagram). Favour Obasi-ike argues that underscores are not search-friendly, add unnecessary complexity for users typing the name, and conceptually place the user "under the line." A mashed-up name or a hyphen is preferable.LinkedIn RSS Feed Integration: A powerful and underutilized tactic is to connect a podcast's RSS feed directly to a LinkedIn company profile. This can be done in the company settings section and allows for the automatic distribution of new episodes onto the LinkedIn server, expanding reach.Advanced Growth Strategies and Data AnalysisBeyond the fundamentals, Favour Obasi-ike offers advanced tips for optimization and scaling based on data intelligence.Technical Standards and ValidationPodcast Artwork: The industry standard for podcast cover art and episode covers is a minimum of 3,000 by 3,000 pixels. Anything smaller may cause issues.Feed Validation: Podcasters can use free tools like Castfeedvalidator.com to perform an audit of their RSS feed and ensure it meets technical standards.Data-Driven DecisionsBrowser-Based Listening: It is a critical insight that a significant portion of the audience listens to podcasts on a web browser. With Google Chrome accounting for 72% of web browsers, this highlights the importance of a web-friendly presence and SEO within the Google ecosystem (Search, YouTube, Gmail).Digital Marketing SEO Resources:>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our exclusive SEO Marketing community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> Read SEO Articles>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need SEO Services?

Our teacher today is Jan Mohr, CEO of Chapters Group, a publicly traded serial acquisition holding company with ambitions of becoming one of Europe's technology champions. Chapters' origins date back to a small software startup founded near Frankfurt in 1998. Twenty years later, the core business was sold to a strategic buyer, consolidating the market with the proceeds of the sale in 2018. With Jan's influence, the company embarked on a new chapter, pivoting to build the preferred home for mission-critical businesses across the old continent. Over the last five years, they have been on an absolute tear, having founded four distinct acquisition platforms that collectively acquired around 60 operating companies, demonstrated the ability to build a prolific M&A machine, while also improving the operations of the companies they acquire. Virtually every company in the world today is, on some level, thinking about AI in terms of threats, opportunities, and implications for their business. Perhaps nowhere is that discourse more animated right now than in the software industry. And as you'll hear from Jan, AI's potential to be a transformative force driving not only efficiencies, but also TAM expansion and most importantly, tangible customer value, is already evident throughout their business. We hope you enjoy class today with our good friend and Chapter CEO, Jan Mohr.

Host: Annik Sobing Guest: Bonnie Gutz Published: October 12, 2025 Length: ~29 minutes Presented by: Global Training Center Europe's Balancing Act: Free Trade, Green Goals, and the Future of Trade Strategy In this Simply Trade Roundup episode, Annik Sobing welcomes back Bonnie Gutz, an expert in international trade regulation, compliance, and strategic trade leadership. Together, they explore how Europe is reshaping trade policy to balance growth and sustainability — and what that means for trade professionals worldwide. The discussion kicks off with Europe's newly finalized EU–Indonesia trade agreement, which removes tariffs on over 98% of goods. Bonnie breaks down the opportunities and the controversies surrounding this deal, particularly its overlap with the European Deforestation Regulation (EUDR). From palm oil and environmental impact to the politics of delaying green rules, this episode dives deep into Europe's evolving priorities. The conversation then shifts to the emergence of the “Trade Strategist” — a new kind of professional who integrates trade policy, finance, and compliance to help companies plan long-term. Finally, Annik and Bonnie discuss the WTO's recent study on artificial intelligence and its prediction that AI could increase international trade by up to 40% over the next 15 years. What You'll Learn in This Episode Key details of the EU–Indonesia Free Trade Agreement and its 98% tariff reduction. How Europe's environmental commitments — especially the EUDR — are being tested by economic and political realities. Why palm oil sits at the center of the trade-versus-sustainability debate. The emerging role of a Trade Strategist and why every global company may soon need one. How AI and automation could increase global trade efficiency by 30–40%, according to the WTO. Key Takeaways The EU's trade expansion efforts sometimes conflict with its sustainability goals, forcing hard policy choices. The EUDR delay sparked pushback from businesses already prepared for its rollout — showing how compliance expectations are shifting. The concept of a Trade Strategist reflects the growing intersection of compliance, strategy, and executive leadership. Artificial Intelligence is transforming trade operations — from tariff classification to strategic forecasting. Businesses that embrace AI early will likely lead in efficiency, compliance accuracy, and strategic agility.

We've talked a lot about AI this season, but this week we're discussing its place in Education with one of our own, Ari Moreland. Artificial Intelligence is reshaping classrooms across the country. From the White House to the schoolhouse, a new challenge is encouraging schools and organizations to embrace AI. And Indiana has updated graduation requirements that now emphasize STEM skills.We'll also review how tech giants like Google are looking to dominate the space with tools like NotebookLM, AI-powered features in Google Classroom, and new capabilities coming straight to Chromebooks. But is AI truly enhancing education, or is it taking away from the learning process? How do we draw the line between AI as a helpful study partner and AI as a shortcut? Join us as we unpack what's happening, what it means for students, parents, and teachers, and where AI could take education next. 

A few years ago “Dead Internet Theory” was just some creepypasta. But thanks to the power of Artificial Intelligence, our most dystopian nightmares become more plausible by the day. The theory reached public awareness after it was published on the small webforum Agora Road's Macintosh Café in January of 2021. Pseudonymous author “IlluminatiPirate” posted the theory, which he claimed had developed earlier on the 4chan board /x/ and Wizardchan. Jake, Julian, and Travis discuss the history of the dead internet theory, the new short form AI video platform Vibes, and the continued push by tech giants to make humans superfluous. This includes the rise of AI actors as prophesied in the 2002 film Simone. Subscribe for $5 a month to get all the premium episodes: www.patreon.com/qaa Editing by Corey Klotz. Theme by Nick Sena.

As we navigate the complex world of court trials involving Donald Trump, the landscape is both fascinating and contentious. Over the past few days, several key legal challenges have emerged, setting the stage for a pivotal term in the Supreme Court.One of the most significant cases is *Trump v. V.O.S. Selections, Inc.*, which has been consolidated with another case for briefing and oral argument. This case, filed by Donald Trump, President of the United States, et al., against V.O.S. Selections, Inc., et al., was docketed on September 4, 2025. The petition for a writ of certiorari was granted, and the case is set for argument in the first week of November 2025[1]. This case is part of a broader series of legal challenges involving Trump, highlighting his efforts to expand executive power and the numerous lawsuits resisting these actions.Another case that has garnered attention is *Trump v. Slaughter*, which will be argued in December 2025. This case involves the firing of a Federal Trade Commissioner and raises critical questions about presidential removal power. Specifically, it challenges the precedent set by *Humphrey's Executor v. United States*, which restricted the president's ability to remove agency heads without good cause. Trump has argued that this decision was incorrect, advocating for a "unitary executive" theory that grants the president broader authority over the executive branch[2].In addition to these high-profile cases, Trump is also facing challenges in *Trump v. Cook*, which concerns the removal of Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve Board. The Supreme Court has agreed to hear arguments on this matter, focusing on whether the president has the power to fire governors of the Federal Reserve, who are appointed for 14-year terms and can only be removed for cause[2]. This case is particularly significant because it involves an institution that is often seen as operating independently of direct presidential control.These cases reflect a broader trend of legal challenges to Trump's executive actions, with many involving national security and constitutional issues. The Trump administration is currently embroiled in nearly 300 active cases, with a significant portion of these reaching the Supreme Court on its emergency docket[3]. The court's decisions on these matters will have profound implications for the future of presidential power and the checks and balances within the U.S. system.As we watch these trials unfold, it becomes clear that this term of the Supreme Court will be critical in shaping American democracy. The balance between executive authority and judicial oversight is being tested, and the outcomes will have lasting impacts on the rule of law and institutional norms.Thank you for tuning in today.

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Bieber's past few days have been a whirlwind, marked by high-profile public appearances, ambitious business moves, family drama, and a wave of social media chatter. In Los Angeles, Justin was spotted courtside at a basketball game for The League, drawing attention with what Telegrafi described as a messy look that barely disguised his extensive tattoos and streetwear from his own emerging fashion brand, SKYLRK. Arriving by SUV, he kept fans and paparazzi at a distance, a move that comes amidst recent scrutiny over a controversial interaction with his mother. Two weeks ago, after his mom posted a lengthy prayer for his healing and protection, Justin replied on social media with a post many interpreted as cool, sparking fan concern and extensive online debate. Daily Mail and Telegraph noted this mother-son dynamic became one of the bigger gossip points this week, but the consensus among fans is the drama is little more than family prayer writ large on social media.Businesswise, this is a defining week for Bieber. Reports from outlets like AOL and PEOPLE confirm he is on the cusp of launching SKYLRK, his new fashion line, after quietly stepping back from promoting his older Drew House brand. Bieber has been actively teasing SKYLRK on Instagram, sharing previews of sweatshirts, eye-catching accessories, and even platform sandals. The account's following is growing even though it has not posted any official content yet. Fans have noticed certain accessories—like a phone case—closely resemble items from his wife Hailey Bieber's recently acquired Rhode beauty brand, fueling further social media speculation and playful rivalry within the Bieber household.Hailey herself is having a headline-grabbing moment. Her Rhode brand was just acquired by e.l.f. Cosmetics for a staggering $1 billion, a deal that placed her squarely among the most successful new beauty moguls. PEOPLE reported that Justin is, in private, “beyond proud” and publicly shared her Instagram announcement post to his millions of followers, though he kept his own words minimal and let the moment be hers.On the career front, Telegraph and multiple news sites announced that Bieber is officially staging a comeback: his latest album "Swag" just dropped and he is confirmed as the headliner for Coachella 2026, locking in a record-breaking $10 million deal. Insiders say the upcoming performance marks the start of a new era for the pop star—a claim that, based on his reemergence and industry buzz, carries genuine long-term significance. As social media keeps humming over his every move, the headlines say it all: Justin Bieber is back in the cultural driver's seat, style mess and all, and the next chapter may be his boldest yet.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Fans of Justin Bieber have had plenty to talk about this past week with news and buzz surrounding both his professional ventures and personal life. Most notably Justin is gearing up for a return to the fashion world teasing his new apparel and accessories brand called SKYLRK. Throughout the past few days he has taken to Instagram to share photos of items such as sweatshirts beanies bold colored sunglasses phone cases and even platform slide sandals all branded with the SKYLRK logo according to AOL. Curiously some followers called attention to the fact that his blue phone case looks a lot like The Lip Case from Rhode the beauty label run by Justin's wife Hailey Bieber but Justin seems unbothered by any crossover. He also tagged SKYLRK's Instagram in his bio and though the brand page is still empty it has already begun to attract attention from fans eager for its official launch. The fashion move is significant not only because Justin's last clothing project Drew House earned cult status but also because the singer appears to be winding down activity with Drew finally passing the creative torch.Speaking of Hailey the Biebers made major headlines after her brand Rhode was acquired by beauty juggernaut e.l.f. Cosmetics for an eye-popping $1 billion according to an exclusive from People Magazine and confirmed by the Los Angeles Business Journal. Sources close to Justin told People that he is “beyond proud” of Hailey's achievement and has been supportive from day one watching firsthand as she built Rhode from scratch. He later shared a screenshot of her announcement on his Instagram stories which Hailey responded to with a heart emoji making their mutual support highly visible to their massive audiences. This merger not only cements Hailey as one of the beauty industry's new power players but also puts the Bieber name back in the business spotlight.As for public appearances there have not been major red carpet or concert events involving Justin himself in the past week and rumors of new music remain unconfirmed. Speculation swirled online about possible collaborations after his posts about fashion and fans remain hopeful for another album but there is no official word from his team or any trade publications. On social media Justin remains active mostly in support of Hailey's big Rhode deal and teasing SKYLRK content to his forty million plus Instagram followers sending both brand and relationship gossip into overdrive. For now all eyes remain on the official launch details for SKYLRK and any hint of Justin's next musical move while the Biebers enjoy one of their biggest business weeks yet.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

100m sprinter Bebe Jackson, 19, won a bronze medal on her debut at the IPC World Para Athletics Championships in Delhi, India, last week. Bebe was born with congenital talipes equinovarus, widely known as club foot, and when she's not competing for Britain, she works nights caring for children with complex disabilities. She tells Anita Rani how she does it.In Sally Wainwright's new BBC drama Riot Women, a group of women in mid-life escape the pressures of caring for parents and kids - and the menopause - by forming a rock band. Rosalie Craig stars as the incredible singer that brings them together. Anita Rani talks to Sally and actor Rosalie about the power of female friendship.Nuala McGovern talks to the French philosopher Manon Garcia. Manon watched the court proceedings of the Pelicot case in France, in which Dominique Pelicot and 46 other men were found guilty of the rape of Dominique's wife Gisèle. In her book Living with Men, she examines French and other societies in light of the case and questions what more needs to be done.When you think about music from 500 years ago, you might picture monks chanting, or the voices of choirboys, but what's been largely forgotten over the course of history is that some of the most striking music during this time was being written and sung by nuns, hidden away in convents across Europe. Nuala speaks to Laurie Stras, Director of Musica Secreta, an all-female renaissance ensemble.Elon Musk's Artificial Intelligence company xAI recently introduced two sexually explicit chatbots. He's a high-profile presence in a growing field where developers are banking on users interacting and forming intimate relationships with the AI chatbots.

Is SEO Enough to Earn Business Profit and Revenue? Marketing Talk with Favour Obasi-Ike | Get exclusive SEO newsletters in your inbox.In this episode of the We Don't PLAY podcast, host Favour Obasi-Ike delivers a masterclass on the strategic role of Search Engine Optimization (SEO) in today's digital landscape. He dismantles the myth that SEO is a silver bullet, arguing instead that it's a foundational component that must work in concert with a healthy business and other marketing channels. We dive deep into how major shifts, like Google's algorithm changes and the rise of AI-driven search, are making a sophisticated SEO strategy more critical than ever.Tune in to learn how to leverage SEO not just for traffic, but as a powerful data intelligence engine to understand your customers and drive informed business decisions.Next Steps for Digital Marketing + SEO Services:>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need SEO Services?

Visit our Work and PLAY Entertainment website to learn about our digital marketing services.>> Visit our Official website for the best digital marketing, SEO, and AI strategies today!Key Takeaways:SEO is a Necessary Ingredient, Not the Entire Recipe: You can't build a successful business on SEO alone. It cannot fix a bad customer experience, poor operations, or a weak value proposition. True success comes from integrating SEO with other channels like email marketing, advertising, and social media.The Search Landscape is Rapidly Evolving: Major changes are reshaping how we think about SEO. With Google removing traditional numbered pages and the emergence of AI-native browsers like Perplexity AI, strategic SEO is more vital than ever. Content freshness, signaled by the "last modified" date, is becoming a key ranking factor.SEO's Core Value is Data & Intelligence: The most powerful benefit of SEO is the actionable data it provides. By using tools like Google Search Console, you can understand customer intent, identify market needs, and make smarter decisions about product development and advertising. SEO is technically psychology.A Proactive Content Strategy is Non-Negotiable: Success requires planning content months in advance. The lifespan of your content varies dramatically by platform—while an Instagram post lasts ~72 hours, a Pinterest pin can drive traffic for over 5 months, making platform choice a key strategic decision.SEO Must Be Fully Integrated: SEO shouldn't live in a silo. Its power is multiplied when woven into email marketing (optimizing images and landing pages), paid ads (using search data for targeting), and lead conversion. It is the "byproduct" of good marketing practices.Implementation Requires a Clear Model & Timeline: Whether you choose a DIY approach, build an in-house team, or outsource to an agency, achieving results takes time. Expect to see significant traction in 1-3 months for established sites and 3-6 months for new ones—an investment that can define your business's trajectory for years to come.Digital Marketing SEO Resources:>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our exclusive SEO Marketing community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> Read SEO Articles>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Need SEO Services?

A.I.-industrien er blevet en boble, der kan sprænge når som helst. Denne forudsigelse kommer ikke kun fra tech-skeptikere, men også fra nogle af branchens mest fremtrædende skikkelser: Altman, Bezos og Thiel. Og når boblen springer, er der tale om enorme beløb. De største teknologiselskaber i USA forventes at investere hele 400 milliarder dollars i udviklingen af kunstig intelligens alene i år. Det til trods for, at indtægterne fra salg af A.I.-baserede ydelser stadig er meget langt fra at kunne dække udgifterne. Men hvad er det, der gør det så svært at skabe en bæredygtig A.I., og hvilken slags A.I. vil stå tilbage efter et eventuelt kollaps? Det diskuterer vi med Anders Søgaard, der er professor på Københavns Universitet og leder af det splinternye Center for Philosophy of Artificial Intelligence. Vært Kaspar Colling Nielsen.

 With the government still halted, economic news has been sparse—but markets seem to be shrugging off the shutdown, showing relatively subdued moves. Still, it's spooky season, and we're digging into just how much Americans spend on Halloween—from the 12-foot lawn skeletons to the endless bags of mini-Snickers. With spending expected to hit record highs this year, we ask: where are all those giant decorations stored the other 11 months of the year? Could this be why storage units are in such high demand? We break down the economics of Halloween—and what our obsession with spooky décor says about consumer behavior. Meanwhile, OpenAI—the creator of ChatGPT—is pouring billions into data centers and infrastructure to power the AI revolution, driving a surge in construction, power generation, and tech development. But there's one catch: OpenAI isn't yet profitable. Investors are betting big on future returns—but what happens if the AI boom cools off or takes longer to deliver? Who foots the bill for all that power and expansion? AI may feel like a sure bet, but there are plenty of financial “what-ifs” to consider. And in our final segment, we tackle a listener's big question: How do I make sure my money lasts through retirement? We explore how spending shapes your financial plan, the importance of cash flow projections, and why revisiting your plan regularly can keep you on track. Plus, we share how we determine a client's “maximum spending” threshold—and what it means if you're getting too close to that line. Join hosts Nick Antonucci, CVA, CEPA, Director of Research, and Managing Associates K.C.

Real Fear, Real Change: Why It's Time to Embrace AI, Respect Wildlife, and Cheer on Women in Rodeo Don't Fear the Future: How to Start Using AI in Everyday Life Without Feeling Overwhelmed Curious about AI but a little nervous to try it? Learn how to start using AI fear-free with beginner-friendly tools, simple tasks like meal planning, and trusted platforms to get you started. Artificial Intelligence (AI) isn't just for tech experts, coders, or Silicon Valley. In fact, AI is already helping everyday people solve everyday problems—and you can start using it right now, even if you're a complete beginner. If you've been feeling hesitant or even afraid of AI, you're not alone. But the truth is, learning how to use AI doesn't have to be intimidating. With the right mindset and a few simple tools, you can start making your life easier today. Why Are People Afraid of AI? Many people fear AI because of myths and misunderstandings—like the idea that it's going to take over jobs or turn into science fiction-level robots. In reality, AI is more like a helpful assistant. Think of it as a calculator for your brain—only smarter, faster, and more versatile. The key is learning how to work with AI, not against it. Beginner-Friendly AI Use: Meal Planning & Fridge Rescue Let's start with something simple and familiar: food. AI can take the stress out of cooking and shopping with easy tools that help you: 1. Plan Your Weekly Meals Instead of scrolling endlessly for recipe ideas, you can ask AI to: Create a weekly dinner plan based on your dietary needs (gluten-free, keto, vegetarian, etc.) Generate a shopping list based on your meal plan Suggest quick recipes for busy nights Try This Prompt: "Can you create a 5-day dinner meal plan for two adults, under $75, that includes leftovers for lunch?" 2. Use What's in the Fridge Don't throw away food just because you don't know what to do with it. AI can suggest creative, safe, and delicious ways to use ingredients before they expire. Try This Prompt: "I have eggs, wilting spinach, a half-used onion, and some shredded cheese. What can I cook tonight?" You'll be surprised how helpful and creative AI can be! Tips & Tricks to Start Using AI Fear-Free Here's how to dip your toes into the AI pool without diving headfirst: 1. Start With Low-Risk, Everyday Tasks AI is great for: Making grocery lists Writing polite emails Summarizing long articles Brainstorming gift ideas Budget planning The more you use it for small tasks, the more confident you'll feel. 2. Use Clear, Friendly Prompts Don't overthink it—talk to AI like a helpful assistant or a friend. Instead of: "Build me a machine learning model to predict market trends" Try: "Can you explain what inflation is in simple terms?" Safe AI Tools & Websites for Beginners Tool What It Does Why It's Good for Beginners ChatGPT (OpenAI) Answers questions, helps plan, write, learn Very conversational and user-friendly Google Gemini  Similar to ChatGPT, connected to live web Great for real-time info   Pro Tip: Always double-check anything AI gives you—especially when it comes to food safety, finances, or health. Think of AI like a smartphone app: it's here to make your life easier, not harder. Starting small—with simple things like meal planning or organizing your week—can build your confidence and save you time. You don't need to become an AI expert overnight. You just need curiosity, a willingness to try, and a safe place to start.   Tragedy in the Ozarks: Bear Attack Confirmed Authorities have confirmed that a black bear was responsible for the tragic death of a camper in Newton County, Arkansas. 60-year-old Max Thomas of Springfield, Missouri, was camping alone at Sam's Throne Campground in the Ozark National Forest late last week. Thomas had been sleeping on an open-air cot—completely exposed—when he was attacked overnight. Family members grew concerned after not hearing from him for several days. Before communication stopped, Thomas had sent them a photo of a black bear lurking near his campsite. The Arkansas Game and Fish Commission initially suspected a bear due to the nature of his injuries and signs at the scene. Now, it's confirmed. Using Thomas's photo and trail cameras set up after the incident, officials tracked down and euthanized the bear believed to be responsible. It's a rare and tragic reminder of the risks of camping in bear country—especially without proper protection. This marks the 2nd Missouri fatal bear attack in a month after 25 years without any.

Wilderness According to Outdoor Life, an elk hunter in southeastern British Columbia is lucky to be alive after a serious encounter with a grizzly bear near Fort Steele last Thursday. Authorities say the man, whose name hasn't been released, was critically injured after a sow grizzly—believed to be protecting her cubs—attacked him. The hunter had been using elk calls, which officials believe may have unintentionally drawn the bear family to his location. The man reportedly got off one shot during the attack, but it's unclear if the bear was hit. Due to the severity of his injuries, officials haven't been able to speak with him yet. He was airlifted to Kelowna General Hospital, where he is now listed in stable condition. Conservation officers used thermal drones and helicopters to search the area but found no sign of the bear afterward. The investigation is ongoing, with help from predator attack specialists and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. The town of Fort Steele lies approximately 60 miles north of the Canadian border, and not far from the town of Whitefish and nearby Glacier National Park in northwest Montana. Officials say elk season is currently in full swing in the region—reminding hunters and outdoor enthusiasts to stay alert in grizzly country.

Riders like Tup Forge, who flew in from Australia and won gold at Cheyenne Frontier Days on just three hours of sleep, are proving that this sport isn't just for the boys. It's been less than a decade since women were welcomed back into rough stock competitions after nearly 90 years of exclusion, originally sparked by a tragic accident in 1929. But these modern cowgirls aren't just here for show — they're serious athletes competing in one of the most dangerous events out there. They ride what they rope in — using ranch saddles instead of the typical rodeo gear — and often spend more than they win. Yet despite the bruises and empty pockets, they keep showing up. Why? Because they love it. So next time you see a woman riding high on a bucking bronc, remember: she's not just breaking barriers — she's making history.

We uncover why Albania just appointed an official Minister of Artificial Intelligence and what that might say about the future of global tech governance. Then we step back in time to the 1930s, when whispers suggest the Vatican quietly investigated a crashed UFO before the world ever heard of Roswell. Finally, we unravel NASA's lesser-known roots and the occult influences woven into the space race. It's history, conspiracy, and chaos—exactly how we like it.

Drawing from recent research conducted by the Medical Research Council and published in the European Heart Journal, she explains how visceral fat differs from subcutaneous fat and its association with inflammation, heart diseases, and premature aging. The episode also highlights the importance of exercise, diet, particularly low-carb intake, and hormone replacement therapy in managing visceral fat and reducing health risks. Leyla also shares practical dietary advice and underscores the significance of focusing on fat distribution over total body weight for better health outcomes.
