Large language models are helping developers move faster than ever. But behind the convenience of AI-generated code lies a security vulnerability: package hallucinations. In this episode, Ashok sits down with U.S. Army cybersecurity officer and PhD researcher Joe Spracklen to unpack new research on how hallucinated package names—fake libraries that don't yet exist—can be weaponized by attackers and quietly introduced into your software supply chain. Joe's recent academic study reveals how large language models like ChatGPT and Code Llama are frequently recommending software packages that don't actually exist—yet. These fake suggestions create the perfect opportunity for attackers to register malicious packages with those names, compromising developer machines and potentially entire corporate networks. Whether your team is deep into AI pair programming or just starting to experiment, this conversation surfaces key questions every tech leader should be asking before pushing AI-generated code to production.

What "package hallucinations" are and why they matter How AI code assistants can introduce real vulnerabilities into your network Which models were most likely to hallucinate packages Why hallucinated package names are often persistent—not random How attackers could weaponize hallucinated names to spread malware What mitigation strategies were tested—and which ones failed Why simple retrieval-based techniques (like RAG) don't solve the problem Steps security-conscious teams can take today to protect their environments The importance of developer awareness as more non-traditional engineers enter the field Mentioned in this episode Python Package Index (PyPI) npm JavaScript package registry Snyk, Socket.dev, Phylum (dependency monitoring tools) Artifactory, Nexus, Verdaccio (private package registries) ChatGPT, Code Llama, DeepSeek (AI models tested) Subscribe to the Convergence podcast wherever you get podcasts including video episodes on YouTube at youtube.com/@convergencefmpodcast Learn something?

In this episode of the RWS Clinician's Corner, Margaret sits down with Ashok Gupta for a deep dive into the brain's pivotal role in chronic illness—exploring how conditions like Long Covid, chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, mold toxicity, and persistent inflammation can often be rooted in neural and nervous system dysregulation. They discuss the distinction between hardware (the body) and software (the brain and nervous system), the science and process of limbic retraining, and practical ways clinicians can integrate these approaches into their practices.   In this interview, we discuss:       -Brain retraining vs. meditation/stress reduction      -The concept of creating and rewiring neural pathways      -Acute vs. chronic illness: transition due to overactive protective responses      -The role of genetic predispositions (e.g., detox ability, immune differences)      -The three “R”s of brain retraining: regulate, retrain, re-engage       -Practical considerations for implementation, maintenance, and long-term success      -Strategies for integrating these techniques/the Gupta program in clinical practice The Clinician's Corner is brought to you by Restorative Wellness Solutions.  Follow us: https://www.instagram.com/restorativewellnesssolutions/   Connect with Dr. Ashok Gupta: Website: http://www.guptaprogram.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/guptaprogram/?hl=en Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/guptaprogram/   Special Offer to RWS Listeners:  We offer all practicing clinicians free access to our brain retraining program for one year -  worth $499 - they can sign up/apply at: https://guptaprogram.com/health-professionals/ Timestamps:    00:00 Mind-Body Healing Hypothesis 09:27 "Integrating Brain-Gut Axis Approaches" 12:59 "Brain Retraining for Chronic Issues" 18:18 Chronic Illness: Break the Vicious Cycle 26:26 Reengage with Joy Program 32:23 "Commit to a Healing Journey" 36:17 Acute vs. Chronic Treatment Approaches 43:50 "Brain Retraining Effectiveness Factors" 49:53 Brain Retraining for Clinicians 52:55 Clinician Co-Branding Service Launch 56:10 Incorporating Nervous System in Health 01:06:22 "Neuroplasticity Healing Success Stories" 01:10:42 Clinician's Corner: Episode Recap Speaker bio: Ashok is an internationally renowned Speaker, Filmmaker & Health Practitioner who has dedicated his life to supporting people through chronic illness, and achieving their potential.   Ashok suffered from ME, or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, around 25 years ago when he was studying at Cambridge University. Through neurological research that he conducted, he managed to get himself 100% better. He then set up a clinic to treat others, and then published the well-known neuroplasticity “limbic retraining” recovery program and app known as the Gupta Program in 2007.    He has published several medical papers including randomized controlled trials on Long Covid, ME/CFS & Fibromyalgia, showing that the treatment is effective, and he is continually researching these conditions.   Keywords:  brain retraining, limbic retraining, neuroplasticity, chronic illness, chronic fatigue syndrome, ME/CFS, long Covid, fibromyalgia, mold toxicity, autoimmunity, gut health, nervous system regulation, functional medicine, integrative health, immune system, inflammation, trauma healing, stress reduction, somatic techniques, meditation, breath work, Gupta Program, functional health practitioners, clinical studies, pain management, anxiety, depression, food sensitivities, neuroscience, recovery   Disclaimer: The views expressed in the RWS Clinician's Corner series are those of the individual speakers and interviewees, and do not necessarily reflect the views of Restorative Wellness Solutions, LLC.

Most companies have a mission statement. But few are truly mission-driven in practice. In this episode, Jason Fraser joins Ashok to unpack what it actually means to prioritize mission over profit — and how the best organizations are able to do both. Jason reflects on the differences between performative mission language and the kind of operational decision-making that aligns tightly with purpose. He shares the concept of “mission ratios” and how teams can use them to identify where they're constrained, where they have leverage, and how to get disproportionate outcomes from limited inputs. Drawing on examples from Patagonia, World Central Kitchen, and a federal asylum processing team, Jason walks through the tools and frameworks that mission-first leaders can use to improve focus, clarity, and measurable impact. Whether you're running a nonprofit, a B Corp, or just trying to do more meaningful work, this episode gives you language and direction to guide your team's decisions. Plus, Jason shares how to spot the ratios that matter most — and what to do once you find them.

He explains that many chronic diseases stem from a malfunction in the brain's threat detection system, where the body overreacts to perceived threats, triggering immune, nervous system, or mood responses, creating a vicious cycle. Ashok shares how retraining the brain and calming the nervous system can reset the body's response to chronic stress and presents the growing body of research supporting the Gupta Program, including new subjective measurements like CRP showing its impact. What excites me most is the potential for this approach to help some of my toughest-to-treat patients. With more studies emerging, I'm increasingly hopeful this could be a game-changer. It's a conversation you won't want to miss! ~DrKF Check out the show notes at https://tinyurl.com/2t55s3y3 for the full list of links and resources.

What if the real reason your team isn't thriving isn't them—it's you? In this episode, Ashok sits down with Sel Watts, founder of Wattsnext and a trusted advisor to growth-stage executives, to talk about the blind spots that derail team performance. Sel shares why leaders often overengineer HR systems while neglecting the basic needs of their people—and why getting back to the fundamentals starts with brutal self-honesty. They explore why traditional job descriptions are outdated, how to rethink role clarity using "outcome profiles," and why consistency beats charisma when it comes to leadership. Sel also shares candid stories from the field—including one about a CEO who had zero emotional intelligence but ran a surprisingly stable company—and explains how tools like behavioral profiling can be powerful when used correctly (and not just shelved after a team offsite). Inside the episode Why leadership starts with self-awareness, not structure The “outcome profile” approach to defining roles clearly How to tell if someone's actually underperforming—or just misaligned What happens when leaders care more about process than people The surprising upsides of being consistent, even if you're not "warm" Why behavioral profiling tools are often wasted One-on-ones, All Hands, and rituals that only work when leaders believe in them Rethinking hiring decisions by starting with the org chart, not the title The cost of skipping reflection before replacing a team member A real-world example of a team where mutual accountability actually works   Mentioned in this episode Wattsnextpx - https://www.wattsnextpx.com Extended DISC - https://www.extendeddisc.org/ AcuMax - https://www.acumaxindex.com/ Myers-Briggs - https://www.themyersbriggs.com/en-US/Products-and-Services/Myers-Briggs Predictive Index - https://www.predictiveindex.com/ Entrepreneurs' Organisation (EO) - https://eonetwork.org/ Unlock the full potential of your product team with Integral's player coaches, experts in lean, human-centered design.

Dr. Jill Carnahan invites Ashok Gupta, an expert in neuroplasticity, to discuss how we can harness the power of the brain to heal from chronic illnesses. This conversation is crucial for anyone interested in understanding how our mental and physical health are interconnected.  Throughout the episode, Ashok Gupta shares his groundbreaking insights on rewiring the brain, explaining how certain thought patterns can perpetuate inflammation and lead to an autonomic imbalance. Using his Gupta Program, Ashok discusses strategic approaches to break these cycles and promote healing and resilience. Join us for this informative and inspiring discussion on Resiliency Radio with Dr. Jill Carnahan. Whether you're struggling with chronic conditions or simply looking to enhance your mental health, this episode with Ashok Gupta is packed with valuable insights and actionable advice. Key Points: ① Neuroplasticity as a Healing Tool: Limbic retraining harnesses the brain's neuroplastic potential to interrupt maladaptive stress and threat responses originating from the amygdala, insula, and anterior cingulate cortex—pathways often implicated in chronic illnesses such as ME/CFS, long COVID, mold toxicity, and chronic Lyme disease. ② Rewiring Dysregulated Threat Perception: The Gupta Program helps patients identify and disengage from unconscious fear-based patterns that perpetuate inflammation, autonomic imbalance, and HPA axis dysregulation—restoring homeostasis through self-directed neurocognitive techniques like visualization, mindfulness, and vagal tone activation. ③ Integration with Functional Medicine: Brain retraining serves as a critical adjunct to biochemical and physiological interventions by addressing the top-down influence of trauma, stress, and limbic system over activation, thereby enhancing the effectiveness of gut-healing, detoxification, and immune-modulating protocols.

In this deeply enriching episode of the Think Wildlife Podcast, we delve into the transformative journey of Trishala Ashok—an award-winning jewelry designer turned conservation filmmaker and founder of True Story Media Productions LLP. Through an inspiring and heartfelt conversation, Trishala takes us on a voyage that beautifully bridges creativity and science, forging a path that is not just about capturing wildlife through the lens, but about safeguarding it through purpose-driven narratives. From the forests of Karnataka to the banks of the Girwa River and the unseen corridors of airport security, Trishala's commitment to ecological filmmaking has established her as a pioneer in the realm of biodiversity conservation.Her story begins in the world of shimmering gemstones and 3D-printed designs, but a fateful encounter with a tiger in Jim Corbett National Park changed everything. That single moment stirred something within—a deep calling that led her away from the glittering world of fashion to the raw, untamed wilderness of India's biodiversity hotspots. What followed was a courageous decision to abandon a successful business in jewelry design, and leap into the unknown world of conservation without a roadmap—armed only with passion, empathy, and an unwavering desire to make a difference.In this episode, Trishala opens up about her early experiences with wildlife rescue in Bangalore, where she worked with monkeys, black kites, lorises, and snakes. She shares riveting accounts of her collaborations with the Wildlife Crime Control Bureau and Karnataka Forest Department, tackling wildlife trade and urban wildlife rescues. These foundational years, filled with on-ground exposure and grassroots outreach, eventually gave rise to the storyteller in her—a voice determined to counter deep-rooted misconceptions about wildlife, particularly snakes, through the power of conservation filmmaking.Trishala's first film, DEFANG, born out of a need to debunk snake-related myths like the existence of the mythical "nagamani," marked her official entry into wildlife documentary filmmaking. Created in partnership with the Karnataka Forest Department and Kalinga Center for Rainforest Ecology, DEFANG not only garnered support from the highest forest authority but also signaled the beginning of her journey into biodiversity filmmaking. It's not just the subject matter that makes this documentary unique—it's the impact-driven storytelling that weaves science with empathy and curiosity with community action.From there, Trishala's work continued to evolve. One of her most notable contributions is a public service announcement featuring Gauri Shankar, a renowned herpetologist, and a young boy from a rural village. This short film reached thousands across Karnataka and successfully altered local perceptions about snakes—encouraging empathy, curiosity, and coexistence. In a moving anecdote, Trishala recalls returning to the village a year later to find local children guarding a burrow of snake eggs, a testament to the behavioral shift her work helped inspire. This moment solidified her belief that wildlife filmmaking can do more than just document nature—it can mobilize communities, change narratives, and ultimately protect species.Trishala's philosophy is rooted in the idea that storytelling should not end with the credits; instead, it should catalyze action. This belief inspired her to found True Story Media Productions LLP, a media platform focused not only on nature documentaries and sustainable filmmaking, but also on social change. At True Story, storytelling transcends screen time, extending into conservation outreach campaigns, policy change, and educational efforts. Whether working with schoolchildren or policy-makers, the mission remains the same: inspire action through compelling narratives grounded in truth.One of True Story's recent standout projects is Girwa ke Gharial, a short film blending fiction with conservation messaging to spotlight the critically endangered gharial in Uttar Pradesh. Featuring local children and forest officers as actors, the film connects audiences with the riverine ecosystem in a relatable and accessible way. Through engaging storytelling and community inclusion, the project helped redefine public attitudes toward gharials—prompting viewers to see them not as obscure reptiles, but as proud icons of their region's natural heritage.But Trishala's commitment to conservation extends beyond rivers and forests. In a groundbreaking new project titled Hidden Routes: Detecting Wildlife Crime Through Airports, she explores a darker, lesser-known side of conservation: wildlife trafficking. With a focus on training customs officers to detect illegal wildlife trade, this non-public film represents a pioneering step in biodiversity management. Drawing from nearly a decade of work with the Wildlife Crime Control Bureau and other enforcement agencies, Trishala's investigative lens now serves as a vital tool in safeguarding endangered species from organized crime syndicates.Another fascinating initiative she shares is an upcoming wildlife documentary on marine mammal strandings along the Indian coast. This film, made in collaboration with marine mammalogist Dipani Sutaria, is designed to educate coastal communities and fisheries departments in both Malayalam and English. By providing clear, culturally grounded guidance on how to handle strandings, the project exemplifies Trishala's unique approach to sustainable filmmaking: hyper-local, inclusive, and rooted in both science and storytelling.Also in the pipeline is a passion project centered on the enigmatic Indian chameleon. After three years of research and development, Trishala is finally moving into production on this highly anticipated 4K video that will highlight the ecological significance and conservation needs of this visually stunning yet vulnerable reptile. Through this project, she hopes to draw attention to a species that often goes unnoticed in mainstream conservation conversations.Throughout the episode, Trishala also reflects on the challenges and joys of being a female filmmaker in a niche, often under-resourced field. She talks about the technical hurdles of filming in remote locations, the difficulties of acquiring permits, and the unpredictable nature of shooting in the wild. Despite these challenges, she maintains that filmmaking—when done with integrity, vision, and community collaboration—can drive real-world impact.For aspiring filmmakers, she offers invaluable advice. She emphasizes the importance of knowing your gear inside out, even when projects are few and far between. She encourages budding storytellers to explore all aspects of ecological filmmaking, from scriptwriting to editing, directing to producing. By honing a broad range of technical and narrative skills, young filmmakers can build sustainable careers that both support and advocate for the planet.What sets Trishala apart is her refusal to compromise on emotional truth, even when facing logistical hurdles or skepticism from peers. In a moment of doubt during the production of Girwa ke Gharial, mentors advised her to simplify the project. But she stuck to her creative instincts, refusing to dilute the story for convenience. That leap of faith paid off when the film deeply resonated with its target audience—young children and local villagers who had never before seen their culture and environment reflected so vividly on screen.One particularly heartwarming story she shares is from her time volunteering with the Kalinga Center for Rainforest Ecology. While accompanying a film crew to document a king cobra, she spent days engaging with a family who initially wanted the snake removed. By the end of the week, their fear turned to fascination. One villager even suggested leaving curd rice at the snake's burrow, a traditional Indian gesture of care. This moment, rich in cultural nuance and personal transformation, exemplifies the kind of impact conservation filmmaking can have when it's rooted in empathy and respect.From addressing climate change to amplifying underrepresented voices in conservation, Trishala's work embodies a powerful synergy between media, science, and community. Her films are not just stories—they are instruments of change. With each frame, she invites us to see the world not only as it is but as it could be: interconnected, thriving, and deeply worth protecting.So whether you're a student of environmental science, an aspiring wildlife photographer, or simply a lover of stories that matter, this episode is for you.

Ashok Pande writes. In a world increasingly driven by the “business” of writing, Ashok Pande just keeps writing regardless. He translates works because he likes to, not because a publisher asked him to (though it would be great to see his translations published!). He blogs. His social media page is a rage amongst his readers. He wrote a book of poetry and a travelogue. And after several ‘ten thousand hours' of writing for the love of it, Ashok Pande published two books that sky rocketed him to fame. Words come easy to him, especially when he writes of his home, of his people and from his heart. लेखन के "व्यवसाय" से परे, अशोक पांडे बिना किसी परवाह के लिखते रहते हैं। उन्होंने कई कृतियों का अनुवाद इसलिए किया क्योंकि वो उन्हें पसंद आयी, इसलिए नहीं कि किसी प्रकाशक ने उनसे ऐसा करने के लिए कहा है (हालाँकि अगर अनुवाद प्रकाशित हों तो और अच्छा हो!)। वह ब्लॉग करते हैं, उनका सोशल मीडिया पेज बहुत लोकप्रिय है। उनकी एक कविता संग्रह और एक यात्रा वृतांत छपे। और हज़ारों घंटों लिखने के बाद, अशोक पांडे ने वो दो किताबें प्रकाशित कीं, लपूझन्ना और बब्बन कार्बोनेट, जिनसे उनका नाम साहित्य के सितारों में गिना जाने लगा। premchand,storyjam,shortstories,hindi stories,urdu stories,audio stories,short stories,bedtime stories,hindi sahitya,hindi kahani achchi achhi,hindi kahani,hindi kahaniyan,kahani,radio kahani,audio kahani,audible,kahani achchi achchi,bed time stories,stories for kids,radio stories,hindi,course ki stories,stories in hindi,lappujhanna ashok pandey,lappujhanna,babban carbonate,uttarakhand stories,Haldwani, pahadi
