As the world's largest agricultural economy, when China makes a move, the world pays attention. China has just unveiled an ambitious plan to accelerate its development of ag machinery by shortening its research and development cycles. So will China dominate the future of agricultural machinery, and what does this mean for dealers, farmers, and agtech companies?Lachlan Monsbourgh, Global Rural Agricultural and Environmental Lead at Rabobank, joins us to discuss China's pivotal role in global agriculture. This includes China's rapidly developing ag machinery industry, which can manufacture tractors and equipment for about half the cost of the other major players in the US, Europe and Japan. While the products currently face quality, durability and serviceability challenges, Lachlan argues it is only a matter of time before these are overcome. Lachlan and Sarah discuss:The price point difference between Chinese agricultural manufacturers and other big OEMsThe impact of cheaper tractors on agtech adoption and autonomyHow China is moving to ensure sustainable supply chains from countries such as Brazil.Global biodiversity targets and the role of autonomous robotics in helping to achieve them.Useful Links:How China is reshaping Global Food Systems for the Climate Change Era, World Economic ForumTarget to accelerate agriculture machinery development, AgTechNavigatorKunming Montreal Biodiversity frameworkThe Three Categories of Autonomy in Agriculture, SwarmFarm RoboticsFor more information and resources, visit our website.

In this episode, I'm joined by Ali Kashani, Co-Founder and CEO of Serve Robotics. Serve is pioneering autonomous sidewalk delivery at scale—with hundreds of robots already operating in major U.S. cities and thousands more on the way.Ali and I dive into the complexity of autonomy: the technical challenges, the economics, the regulatory and consumer adoption hurdles, and the leadership required to make sense of it all. He shares how Serve is approaching innovation, why their technology and go-to-market path is unique, and what it takes to attract, empower, and retain world-class talent in such a fast-moving space.We also talk about the bigger picture—why last-mile delivery has lagged so far behind other logistics revolutions, and why the sidewalk may hold the key to a generational leap in productivity and sustainability.About Ali KashaniAli Kashani is the Co-Founder and CEO of Serve Robotics, the leading autonomous sidewalk delivery company. He previously co-founded and led robotics efforts at Postmates, which was later acquired by Uber, before spinning out Serve as an independent company in 2021. Under Ali's leadership, Serve has scaled to one of the largest fleets of urban delivery robots in the world and became a publicly traded company in 2023. Ali is a repeat entrepreneur with a deep background in AI and robotics, and he has been a leading voice on the future of autonomy, urban mobility, and responsible AI deployment.Connect with AliLinkedIn: Ali KashaniServe Robotics: serverobotics.comConnect with MeLinkedIn: Brandon BartneckPodcast: Building Better with Brandon BartneckPJ Wallbank Springs: pjws.comEdison Manufacturing & Engineering: edison-mfg.com

I invited Atalia Horenshtien to unpack a topic many leaders are wrestling with right now. Everyone is talking about AI agents, yet most teams are still living with rule based bots, brittle scripts, and a fair bit of anxiety about handing decisions to software. Atalia has lived through the full arc, from early machine learning and automated pipelines to today's agent frameworks inside large enterprises. She is an AI and data strategist, a former data scientist and software engineer, and has just joined Hakoda, an IBM company, to help global brands move from experiments to outcomes. The timing matters. She starts on the 18th, and this conversation captures how she thinks about responsible progress at exactly the moment she steps into that new role. Here's the thing. Words like autonomy sound glamorous until an agent faces a messy real world task. Atalia draws a clear line between scripted bots and agents with goals, memory, and the ability to learn from feedback. Her advice is refreshingly grounded. Start internal where you can observe behavior. Put human in the loop review where it counts. Use role based access rather than feeding an LLM everything you own. Build an observability layer so you can see what the model did, why it did it, and what it cost. We also get into measurements that matter. Time saved, cycle time reduction, adoption, before and after comparisons, and a sober look at LLM costs against any reduction in FTE hours. She shares how custom cost tracking for agents prevents surprises, and why version one should ship even if it is imperfect. Culture shows up as a recurring theme. Leaders need to talk openly about reskilling, coach managers through change, and invite teams to be co creators. Her story about Hakoda's internal AI Lab is a good example. What began as an engineer's idea for ETL schema matching grew into agent powered tools that won a CIO 100 award and now help deliver faster, better outcomes for clients. There are lighter moments too. Atalia explains how she taught an ex NFL player the basics of time series forecasting using football tactics. Then she takes us behind the scenes with McLaren Racing, where data and strategy collide on the F1 circuit, and admits she has become a committed fan because of that work. If you want a practical playbook for moving from shiny demos to dependable agents, this episode will help you think clearly about scope, safeguards, and speed. Connect with Atalia on LinkedIn, explore Hakoda's work at hakoda.io, and then tell me how you plan to measure your first agent's value. ********* Visit the Sponsor of Tech Talks Network: Land your first job  in tech in 6 months as a Software QA Engineering Bootcamp with Careerist https://crst.co/OGCLA  

This week on Autonomy Markets, Grayson Brulte and Walter Piecyk discuss the rapidly shifting landscape of AI inside of vehicles, exploring how xAI's Grok and Google's Gemini are shaping the future of in-vehicle experiences.Grayson and Walt debate whether these AI systems will remain as assistants limited to Q&A or evolve into agentic copilots capable of controlling everything from “car wash mode” to trip planning and operating the traditional in-cabin functions of a vehicle. They draw parallels to historical tech battles, from Apple CarPlay's removal by GM to the politics within Alphabet that may slow Gemini's rollout inside Waymo vehicles. The discussion underscores how the integration of AI into vehicles could become one of the most valuable battlegrounds in autonomy. Beyond AI integration, the conversation expands into the latest market moves across autonomy. Tesla's upcoming expansion to Phoenix, Las Vegas, and California airports takes center stage, alongside SpaceX's $19 billion spectrum acquisition and its implications for connectivity in robotaxis.Episode Chapters0:00 Qualcomm on The Road to Autonomy2:51 Grok vs Gemini: Who Will Own the Future of AI In-Vehicle?12:33 Tensor Auto14:40 Tesla's Planned Robotaxi Expansions20:19 SpaceX / EchoStar Spectrum Deal 23:48 Zoox Las Vegas Launch27:17 May Mobility's Launch in Atlanta on Lyft31:41 Do May Mobility Cars go to Lyft or Uber First?34:12 Waymo's Emerging Hyundai Risk 36:30 Kodiak Delivers First Factory Upfitted Autonomous Truck38:35 Autonomous Trucking Industry40:43 Next WeekRecorded on Friday, September 12, 2025--------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy provides market intelligence and strategic advisory services to institutional investors and companies, delivering insights needed to stay ahead of emerging trends in the autonomy economy™.

On the show today, Scott Kuindersma, VP of Robotics Research at Boston Dynamics, discusses the development and testing of large behavior models (LBMs) for Atlas, a humanoid robot. The Boston Dynamics team collected 20 hours of teleoperation data to train LBMs, which generalize manipulation tasks. They demonstrated this with Atlas performing bi-manual manipulation tasks, such as picking and placing Spot parts. The process involves data collection, annotation, model training, and evaluation. Kuindersma highlighted the importance of simulation data and human demonstration data. Future plans include testing Atlas in Hyundai facilities and exploring AI-centric results to enhance humanoid manipulation and dynamic behaviors. Boston Dynamics is planning to take Atlas to some Hyundai facilities this year.

Less has been more with BrewDog's U.S. business over the last year and a half.    On the latest episode of the Brewbound Podcast, BrewDog USA chief sales and marketing officer Eric Teodoro Franco explains how the business has “done fewer things better,” leading with a focus on its core brands, which helped the brand increase volume 26% last year, to 89,084 barrels of beer, according to data from the Brewers Association (BA).    “We were very, very famous and very willing to be famous for throwing a lot against the wall and seeing what would stick for many, many years,” Franco shared. “We can do that in the U.K. where you have a 50-plus share and you can develop a lot of things and trial and try new things.    “In this market, we did that and it didn't work. We've really taken our range plan, we've taken our focuses down to really doing fewer and better things.”   That's led to improved wholesaler partnerships and led to a redeployment of BrewDog's teams to better support its core markets, Franco said.   Additionally, BrewDog USA has been given the opportunity to run its operations with some autonomy from its homebase in Scotland as its U.S. leadership team has earned the trust of the global team.   “We're running things the way we need to run them,” Franco said. “Same on the food side and on the retail side of our business.   “For many years, we were very much driven by what the U.K. or international bars looked like, and we would apply that narrative, if you will, or business plan to the U.S. bars. That's gone away as well.”   Franco also discusses how the exits of founders James Watt and Martin Dickie have affected the U.S. business, how the company is approaching innovation and how the company has rethought both its distribution footprint and its taproom strategy.     Before the interview, Brewbound's Justin Kendall, Jessica Infante and Zoe Lica break down the impending closure of 21st Amendment Brewery, the removal of a study from the dietary guidelines process and the challenges of making an alcoholic version of better-for-you soda. They also dig into TikTok trends and the latest grousing about Generation Z's bar habits.

Kevin Freeman and Dr. Simone Gold discuss institutional capture, fear-driven public health, and the erosion of medical freedom during the pandemic, urging individuals to think independently. She highlights America's Frontline Doctors, the upcoming Freedom Summit 2025 in Dallas, and policy shifts like Florida's move to end vaccine mandates. Gold critiques third-party health care payment systems and promotes a direct doctor-patient model, introducing GoldCare.com's $10/month education-first membership with optional fee-for-service clinical care. She emphasizes lifestyle foundations — movement, nutrition, sleep — over pill-first medicine and outlines practical paths to reduce costs while restoring choice and trust.

The 7 "A's" of Super-AgingThese seven A's are the key to making your golden years the best ones of your life:Attitude - Having a positive outlook and a concrete vision of the future is essential. Awareness - Staying aware can be tough in the 24/7 news cycle, but  keeping up with the latest treatments, products and services that can help health challenges, and knowing which sources you can really trust.Activity - Exercising the body and the mind is crucial .Autonomy - Maintain your physical independence, like staying in your home and being in charge of your finances for as long as possible.Accomplishment - Achievements don't have to stop just because you're getting older. Having goals and working to reach them is important at any age.Attachment - Loneliness and social isolation negatively impact health and lifespan, so maintaining relationships and forming new ones is essential.Avoidance - Knowing how to minimize risks from fraud, scams, and ageism in the marketplace is a skill superagers have perfected.⠀Daydreaming Is Good For YouSometimes your mind just wanders into a daydream state… let it. Daydreaming uses your best core memories and helps make space for new ones in the process, according to experts. They agree that at its best daydreaming is healthy for body and mind. Therapist Saba Lurie says there are two types of daydreaming:The productive kind that reduces stress, boosts creativity, and helps you problem solveUnproductive daydreaming builds stress and anxiety, and makes you think negatively because you're focusing on past mistakesLurie suggests that you daydream to your heart's content but keep it positive.Mistakes We Make At Warehouse ClubsBuying too many perishables: That massive bag of avocados or 10-pound tub of strawberries might seem like a great deal, but if you can't eat them before they spoil, it's money wasted. Assuming all your shopping should be done there: Warehouse clubs don't always have the lowest price Price-comparison apps are your best friend here.Letting the giant carts trick you: Those carts are huge for a reason: they practically beg you to fill them. Getting lured by hot dogs and free samples: Sure, a $1.50 hot dog or a round of tasty samples feels like harmless fun. But once you're inside, you're more likely to justify other purchases you didn't plan on making. Ignoring warehouse club apps: Each warehouse club has its own app, and they often feature exclusive discounts, flash sales, or hidden deals not advertised in-store. Skipping the gift card section: Clubs often sell discounted gift cards for restaurants, movies, or retailers. That's basically free money if you're going to spend it anyway. Snagging a $100 card for $80 is an effortless win.Forgetting about extra perks:  Clubs often offer cheaper gas, prescription savings, insurance discounts, travel deals, and even theme park tickets. Not taking advantage of the return policy: Warehouse clubs have some of the most generous return policies around. Sometimes they even refund memberships if you're unhappy. Second Date UpdateMonica called us about Julian. They matched on Bumble and went to dinner in Burlingame. Monica said they ordered a bottle of wine, split an appetizer, and even lingered over dessert because the conversation was flowing so well. She thought he was engaged, asking about her job and her family, and she left the date thinking Julian was genuinely interested in seeing her again. But she never heard back.

From 1950 to 1954, McCarthy gained national attention by making sweeping accusations of subversion and disloyalty, often without credible evidence. His claims fueled widespread fear during the Cold War and resulted in many individuals losing jobs or reputations despite the lack of proof. The term has since come to signify the practice of making unsubstantiated charges, especially in a highly publicized or politically motivated way. McCarthy's power declined after his aggressive methods were exposed during nationally televised hearings in 1954, when public opinion turned against him. Later that year, the U.S. Senate formally censured him, marking the collapse of his influence. Today, McCarthyism is remembered as a cautionary example of how fear and suspicion can undermine democratic institutions. source

Dean Foreman, Chief Economist, Texas Oil & Gas Association joined Grayson Brulte on The Road to Autonomy podcast to discuss how record-breaking global energy demand and Texas's energy dominance are reshaping markets amid the AI revolution and shifting geopolitical dynamics. With the Energy Information Administration (EIA) projecting consecutive oil demand records of 103.7 million barrels per day in 2025 and 104.9 million barrels per day in 2026, Texas has emerged as the undisputed energy powerhouse, now producing 42% of US oil and 30% of US natural gas while generating $27.3 billion in state tax revenue and supporting over 1.3 million jobs.The Permian Basin continues to demonstrate remarkable productivity gains, delivering 20% more output using 40% fewer rigs compared to 2018-2019 levels through advanced data analytics and re-fracking technologies. This efficiency revolution has enabled Texas to account for 80% of US oil growth year-to-date while natural gas demand reaches record highs of 148.7 trillion cubic feet globally. Despite economic headwinds including record $18.4 trillion household debt and softening labor indicators, energy markets continue to show resilience with diesel demand up 4% and jet fuel climbing 5% year-over-year, reflecting continued industrial activity and travel recovery.Natural gas is rapidly becoming the critical infrastructure powering AI data centers and the digital economy, with hyperscalers increasingly turning to co-located natural gas generation for reliable 24/7 electricity. As geopolitical tensions create new energy partnerships between Russia and China through proposed pipelines capable of 5 billion cubic feet per day, and Europe relies on up to 75% of Texas LNG exports during peak periods, traditional energy resources prove foundational not just to current economic prosperity but to the future of automation, artificial intelligence, and global technological advancement.Episode Chapters0:00 Weakening U.S. Dollar & Interest Rates2:21 Growing Household Debt4:20 Emerging Markets & Supply Chains5:27 Growing Natural Gas Demand12:49 Growing Global Oil Demand16:51 Potential Weakening U.S. Economy18:33 Global Oil Supply21:27 China24:49 Europe29:55 Permian Basin 32:58 ADS Business Conditions Index34:33 Tech's Impact on Oil & Natural Gas Industry36:03 Texas Oil & Natural Gas Industry's Economic Impact 37:52 Next QuarterRecorded on Thursday, September 4, 2025--------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy provides market intelligence and strategic advisory services to institutional investors and companies, delivering insights needed to stay ahead of emerging trends in the autonomy economy™.

Drew Allen, CEO of Grace Technologies, shares real stories from the floor, the ideas shaping safer plants, and why culture matters more than slogans. Drew's background stretches from a family line linked to Samuel Morse to teenage years in China to global business development at 3M. That range shows up in how he leads. He listens, he moves fast, and he expects teams to work on things that matter. In his world that means saving electricians from shocks and arc flash while helping manufacturers modernize without losing their soul. Grace started with mechanical and analog products, then took the hard road into fully digital systems. The shift took time and patience. Today their platform brings sensors, AI, and cloud tooling into maintenance and safety. The example that stuck with me is a proximity band for electricians. It lights, beeps, and vibrates as a worker approaches live voltage. At TriCity, that band prevented three near misses in a three month pilot. A fourth incident still ended in a hospital visit and a costly outage because the worker left the band in his car. Another apprentice nearly placed a hand on a live bus bar until the band told him something was wrong. These moments remind you that technology can change a day and a life. Drew's take on culture is refreshingly direct. Values are not a poster. They are a filter for who you hire. He looks for customer obsession, ownership, curiosity, and candid communication. Then he pairs that with high expectations and real care. Autonomy comes with accountability. Impact matters. If someone does not want to work on meaningful problems, this is not their place. It sounds firm. It also explains why the company keeps earning top workplace recognition while raising the bar on performance. We also talked about Maple Studios, the startup incubator Drew launched in Davenport, Iowa. He sees gaps in the industrial ecosystem. Fewer big exits. Slow adoption cycles. Founders stuck inside large companies. Maple gives them tools, space, and hard feedback so they can iterate faster and build things factories will actually deploy. His advice is simple. Ship, learn, and repeat. Do customer reviews early. Expect a thousand small gotchas. Move through them rather than pretending they will not appear. Looking ahead, Drew expects robotics to accelerate for a very practical reason. Companies cannot find enough people. Dangerous work will be automated. He imagines maintenance tasks shifting toward humanoid robots, with machines designed so robotic agents can service them. He also references GM's self healing language to point at a coming blend of sensing, prediction, and automated repair.  On AI, he shares Satya Nadella's challenge. Measure productivity and GDP impact rather than hype. The promise is there. The scoreboard will tell the story. If you work in industrial tech, this conversation lands close to home. You will hear how to bring digital tools into legacy environments, how to design for safety from the start, and how to keep teams motivated without losing kindness. You will also catch an open invitation. Drew wants to partner with builders who care about this space. If that is you, reach out to him on LinkedIn or visit graceport.com. And if you are curious about the band that vibrates before a bad day begins, this episode is a good place to start. ********* Visit the Sponsor of Tech Talks Network: Land your first job  in tech in 6 months as a Software QA Engineering Bootcamp with Careerist https://crst.co/OGCLA

This week on Autonomy Markets, Grayson Brulte and Walter Piecyk discuss the new expansion announcements from both Waymo and Tesla, framing it as a “heavyweight fight”. Waymo announced plans to expand to Denver and Seattle, with Denver set to become the first city where its fleet will include both Jaguar I-PACEs and Zeekrs. The company also gained regulatory approval to operate at the San Jose (SJC) airport, a move Grayson Brulte predicted five months ago on a previous episode.Meanwhile, Tesla opened the public waitlist for its Robotaxi app, which quickly surged up the Apple App Store charts, reaching #1 in the travel category and #8 overall among free apps.The discussion then broadens beyond the Waymo–Tesla rivalry, touching on the political headwinds Waymo faces in Seattle, NHTSA's recent regulatory changes designed to accelerate autonomous vehicle commercialization, and Torc's $660 million annual burn rate as Daimler Truck explores external funding options.Episode Chapters0:00 Waymo-Tesla Competition 5:48 Waymo's Denver Expansion 8:01 No Uber Partnership for Denver or Seattle?10:36 Waymo's Affection for Unwelcoming Cities, Including Seattle 15:24 Benefits of Autonomy 16:37 Updated NHTSA Rules19:23 Waymo Expands to San Jose Airport, Is SFO Next?24:22 Tesla Opens Robotaxi Waitlist 27:43 Highway Unlocks30:44 Avride Launching on Uber in Dallas33:16 Tensor Auto35:49 Daimler Truck is Seeking Outside Capital for Torc40:18 Next WeekRecorded on Friday, September 5, 2025--------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy provides market intelligence and strategic advisory services to institutional investors and companies, delivering insights needed to stay ahead of emerging trends in the autonomy economy™.

What if the birth certificate was never for your baby—but a tool of control used by the state?In this episode, I sit down with Veda Ray, a freebirthing mother of two, who chose to walk a path most women never even consider: birthing and raising her second child completely outside the system. No pregnancy test. No monitoring. No birth certificate. No social security number.After her first birth at a birth center, Veda knew she wanted something different. This time, she listened deeply—to her body, to her baby, and to her own intuition—and what she heard was clear: this child was to be born free.We go deep into the realities of living outside the system, including how she navigated the legal terrain to secure a passport without government-issued ID, why she believes the birth certificate is a jurisdictional trap, and the spiritual responsibility of saying no to the state's contracts.Inside this episode:What really happens when you don't get a birth certificate or Social Security number for your childThe process Veda used to get a passport without a state-issued IDWhy a “family Bible” can hold legal weight in proving lineage and identityHow the social security number binds your child into the U.S. corporate systemThe link between freebirth and reclaiming jurisdiction over your body and familyWhat it's like to raise a child who has never been registered by the stateThe unseen cost of outsourcing authority—and what you reclaim when you stopTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction[02:01] Choosing radical self-trust after rejecting the medical model[09:21] Learning to sit in the unknown and trust yourself through freebirth[22:54] Rethinking the birth certificate as a contract with the state and choosing a sovereign path instead[26:08] Creating private records to get a passport without a birth certificate[36:47] Using private trusts and EINs as alternatives to social security numbers and state contracts[52:44] Facing fear, claiming trust, and birthing in full sovereignty with family by your sideResources Mentioned:The Business of Being Born | MovieIf you want to connect with Veda, you can find her website here, and follow her @veda.revival.Find more from Emilee on Instagram, YouTube and the Free Birth Society website.Disclaimer: Free Birth Society, LLC of North Carolina shares personal and educational stories and experiences related to freebirth and holistic care.

Agentic AI represents the next frontier in artificial intelligence innovation, where autonomous agents work together as a team. Although agentic AI is in its early stages, it has the potential to help enterprises achieve remarkable gains in productivity, efficiency, and scalability by eliminating inefficiencies and seamlessly scaling an organisation's collective skills. With AI agents, enterprises can gain a competitive advantage by delivering insights faster and making strategic decisions more effectively. AI lessens the burden of using complex tools and dissolves siloes by augmenting human capabilities. Now, employees can contribute more meaningfully to specialised tasks with the assistance of AI. Teams working with AI are three times more likely to be in the top decile of performance than individuals working with AI or teams working without AI. Defining Agentic AI An AI agent is a software system that uses artificial intelligence to autonomously make decisions and take actions to achieve a set of objectives. AI agents have the power to reason, learn and adapt based on their perception of the work environment. As a result, they can be given a goal and carry out complex tasks to reach that goal, with minimal or potentially no human interaction. AI agents surpass automation by adapting and learning within complex workflows. To tap into the potential of agentic AI, it's important to understand the difference between automation and autonomy. Automation is a predefined set of actions that are performed by a piece of technology, whereas autonomy is an intent that is given to technology and the technology then determines and performs the task. Autonomy happens when the human ceases to be the "doer" of the work or ceases to define the workflow. Take supply chain management as an example. An automated robot can be designed to pick, pack and ship goods in a productive manner that reduces errors, achieving faster order completion and customer satisfaction. An autonomous agent, or AI agent, can optimise supply chain management by predicting demand, managing inventory levels, and coordinating with suppliers to ensure timely restocking. It could identify potential disruptions and suggest solutions to maintain the smooth flow of goods. Generative AI vs. Agentic AI - Understanding Their Unique Roles AI agents are different from GenAI chatbots and assistants. GenAI chatbots and assistants help us unlock the power of data, so we can more effectively interact with and act on it. In contrast, AI agents interact with the data and act on our behalf based on our desired goals and without our intervention. An AI agent is typically composed of a core (i.e., a persona, goals, and a list of available tools); a memory; tools to perceive and interact with its environment; and some form of reasoning function that is likely based on an AI model (e.g., LLM). The capabilities of these building blocks determine the AI agent's reasoning ability and influence its degree of autonomy. Balancing Autonomy and Oversight for Effective AI Integration Humans are critical to agentic AI because they provide intentionality for AI agents. Despite the autonomous nature of AI agents, there is still a human involved in defining what success looks like to the AI agents. The biggest shift from GenAI chatbots and assistants to AI agents is that humans are in the loop with GenAI tools. This means humans are deeply involved in defining how work is going to be done. With the current slate of AI agents, humans are on the loop. This means that you define the outcome and the intent, but you have delegated the AI agent to figure out how to perform the task. AI agents will become one of the most impactful tools that accelerate enterprise efficiency by taking on complex tasks while continuously improving themselves through learning and adaptation.

This week on Autonomy Markets, Grayson Brulte and Walter Piecyk marked the one-year anniversary of Autonomy Markets and discussed the reignited debate between LiDAR and vision-only after comments made by Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi during an interview. During the interview, Mr. Khosrowshahi stated that in the short term, a combination of camera, LiDAR, and radar is the “right solution,” noting that all of Uber's current partners use this combination. This statement prompted a response from Elon Musk, who argued via a post on X that LiDAR and radar actually reduce safety due to “sensor contention” and reaffirmed Tesla's commitment to a camera-only system. Beyond the technical debate, Grayson and Walt discussed Tesla's expanded Robotaxi service in Austin and the growing opposition to a potential Waymo deployment in New York City.Episode Chapters0:00 One-Year Anniversary of Autonomy Markets2:14 Dara Khosrowshahi Reignites LiDAR vs Vision-Only Debate9:24 Elon Musk's LiDAR Rebuttal 11:49 What if Tesla Embraced LiDAR?14:29 Robotaxi Expands in Austin, Once Again18:14 Traffic Fatalities 20:32 Waymo Begins Testing in New York City26:06 Boring Company is Testing FSD Supervised in Las Vegas29:07 Stellantis Shuts Down Internal ADAS Development Program31:28 Next WeekRecorded on Thursday, August 28, 2025--------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy provides market intelligence and strategic advisory services to institutional investors and companies, delivering insights needed to stay ahead of emerging trends in the autonomy economy™.

What would you do if you had to give birth in the middle of a war? In this episode, I sit down with Natalia, a Ukrainian mother of two, to hear her incredible story of freebirthing her second child during the 2022 Russian invasion. After one homebirth, Natalia chose to walk an even more radical path with her second—preparing to give birth without medical support, while bombs dropped around her and sirens became part of daily life.What's most striking is that on the day her son was born, the chaos paused. For the first time in weeks, there was silence. A stillness descended over her city, allowing Natalia to give birth in a sacred bubble of peace amidst the war. A divine mercy.We speak candidly about what it was like to prepare for a physiological birth during trauma and survival mode. We explore how she tended to herself postpartum while navigating a broken system that refused to acknowledge her birth. We talk about stopping her hemorrhage, the bureaucratic battle to register her baby, and the heartbreaking search for breast milk when her body struggled to produce.This conversation is a living testament to maternal instinct, spiritual resilience, and the unshakable power of sovereign birth—even in the most unimaginable of circumstances.Inside this episode:How Natalia prepared for freebirth while her country was under siegeThe eerie silence that fell over her city as she birthed her sonNavigating postpartum hemorrhage alone—and what she did to stop itHer struggle to obtain a birth certificate in a system that denied her realityWhat it took to find donor breast milk for her newbornThe spiritual strength and sovereignty required to give birth during warTimestamps:[00:00] Introduction[12:14] The beginning of a wild pregnancy and the realization that she would give birth alone[16:42] Preparing for a freebirth as war begins[21:19] Fleeing home as war erupts during late pregnancy[26:16] Giving birth in the middle of war and finding unexpected peace[32:33] Facing postpartum hemorrhage and delivering the placenta[44:53] Struggling to register a home birth during war and navigating survival choicesResources Mentioned:The Power of Women by Sister MorningStar | BookSister Morningstar | WebsiteIf you want to connect with Natalia, follow her on Instagram and visit her website.Find more from Emilee on Instagram, YouTube and the Free Birth Society website.Disclaimer: Free Birth Society, LLC of North Carolina shares personal and educational stories and experiences related to freebirth and holistic care.

What to listen for:Our hosts, Robin Greubel, Stacy Barnett, and Crystal Wing, do a deep dive into their recent Intentional Handling and Hide Setting camp where, during a sweltering week in Iowa, seventeen detection dog teams discovered how unconscious body positioning can make or break a search!The breakthrough moment came on Thursday during an outdoor search. A handler, diligently following instructions to avoid "going full frontal" on hides, had positioned herself away from the actual hide, directly facing an odor pool instead. Her dog searched frantically in that pool, unable to solve the problem."I want you to go full frontal on the hide," Robin instructed, breaking her own rule. Without saying another word to the dog, the handler simply shifted her feet toward the actual hide location. The dog immediately moved to source and alerted.This demonstration crystallized the camp's core philosophy: intentional handling means making conscious decisions about every movement.As Stacy explains, "It's about purposeful handling in a way that supports the independence and autonomy of the dog, but in a way that's also making the search effective and efficient."The sweet spot lies between abdicating responsibility—just following your dog around—and micromanaging to the point where the dog loses all autonomy.Crystal's Six C's framework provided the mental component. When handlers move with purpose, dogs search with confidence. But intention goes beyond physical positioning. It also shapes how handlers approach each search mentally. Starting with curiosity allowed students to observe without judgment, opening them to discoveries about their own unconscious patterns.The camp's structure reinforced these lessons through repetition. Watching 34 team runs of identical problems revealed how subtle handler movements created dramatically different search patterns. Aged hides, left for 24-36 hours, produced disconnected odor pools that challenged even experienced teams. One hide in a hay field, placed nowhere near any landmark, forced dogs to use pure scenting ability rather than visual triangulation.By week's end, handlers learned to track coverage areas while reading airflow patterns, leaving their dogs free to locate odor. Key Topics:Crystal's Six C's Framework (03:33)The Full Frontal Demonstration (15:44)Defining “Intentional Handling” (18:06)Handler Movement Restrictions Exercise (30:36)Aged Hides and Disconnected Odor Pools (39:23)Hay Field Hide Challenge (45:11)Final Takeaways on Intention and Gratitude (49:24)Resources:Intentional Handling (image mentioned in episode)We want to hear from you:Check out the K9 Detection Collaborative FB page and comment on the episode post!K9Sensus Detection Dog Trainer AcademyK9Sensus Foundation can be found on Facebook and Instagram.
