Our digital lives are increasingly dominated by a handful of powerful tech platforms. Once promising prosperity and democracy, the internet has instead allowed companies like Google, Amazon and Meta to extract money, data and attention from users on an unparalleled scale. Tim Wu, a former technology advisor to President Biden, argues that the government is failing us while tech monopolies deepen wealth divides and enable authoritarianism. We talk to him about how we can take back power from Big Tech. Wu's new book is “The Age of Extraction: How Tech Platforms Conquered the Economy and Threaten Our Future Prosperity.” Guests: Tim Wu, professor of law, Columbia Law School Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop talks with Jessica Talisman, founder of Contextually and creator of the Ontology Pipeline, about the deep connections between knowledge management, library science, and the emerging world of AI systems. Together they explore how controlled vocabularies, ontologies, and metadata shape meaning for both humans and machines, why librarianship has lessons for modern tech, and how cultural context influences what we call “knowledge.” Jessica also discusses the rise of AI librarians, the problem of “AI slop,” and the need for collaborative, human-centered knowledge ecosystems. You can learn more about her work at Ontology Pipeline and find her writing and talks on LinkedIn.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Stewart Alsop welcomes Jessica Talisman to discuss Contextually, ontologies, and how controlled vocabularies ground scalable systems.05:00 They compare philosophy's ontology with information science, linking meaning, categorization, and sense-making for humans and machines.10:00 Jessica explains why SQL and Postgres can't capture knowledge complexity and how neuro-symbolic systems add context and interoperability.15:00 The talk turns to library science's split from big data in the 1990s, metadata schemas, and the FAIR principles of findability and reuse.20:00 They discuss neutrality, bias in corporate vocabularies, and why “touching grass” matters for reconciling internal and external meanings.25:00 Conversation shifts to interpretability, cultural context, and how Western categorical thinking differs from China's contextual knowledge.30:00 Jessica introduces process knowledge, documentation habits, and the danger of outsourcing how-to understanding.35:00 They explore knowledge as habit, the tension between break-things culture and library design thinking, and early AI experiments.40:00 Libraries' strategic use of AI, metadata precision, and the emerging role of AI librarians take focus.45:00 Stewart connects data labeling, Surge AI, and the economics of good data with Jessica's call for better knowledge architectures.50:00 They unpack content lifecycle, provenance, and user context as the backbone of knowledge ecosystems.55:00 The talk closes on automation limits, human-in-the-loop design, and Jessica's vision for collaborative consulting through Contextually.Key InsightsOntology is about meaning, not just data structure. Jessica Talisman reframes ontology from a philosophical abstraction into a practical tool for knowledge management—defining how things relate and what they mean within systems. She explains that without clear categories and shared definitions, organizations can't scale or communicate effectively, either with people or with machines.Controlled vocabularies are the foundation of AI literacy. Jessica emphasizes that building a controlled vocabulary is the simplest and most powerful way to disambiguate meaning for AI. Machines, like people, need context to interpret language, and consistent terminology prevents the “hallucinations” that occur when systems lack semantic grounding.Library science predicted today's knowledge crisis. Stewart and Jessica trace how, in the 1990s, tech went down the path of “big data” while librarians quietly built systems of metadata, ontologies, and standards like schema.org. Today's AI challenges—interoperability, reliability, and information overload—mirror problems library science has been solving for decades.Knowledge is culturally shaped. Drawing from Patrick Lambe's work, Jessica notes that Western knowledge systems are category-driven, while Chinese systems emphasize context. This cultural distinction explains why global AI models often miss nuance or moral voice when trained on limited datasets.Process knowledge is disappearing. The West has outsourced its “how-to” knowledge—what Jessica calls process knowledge—to other countries. Without documentation habits, we risk losing the embodied know-how that underpins manufacturing, engineering, and even creative work.Automation cannot replace critical thinking. Jessica warns against treating AI as “room service.” Automation can support, but not substitute, human judgment. Her own experience with a contract error generated by an AI tool underscores the importance of review, reflection, and accountability in human–machine collaboration.Collaborative consulting builds knowledge resilience. Through her consultancy, Contextually, Jessica advocates for “teaching through doing”—helping teams build their own ontologies and vocabularies rather than outsourcing them. Sustainable knowledge systems, she argues, depend on shared understanding, not just good technology.

RadioBorsa - La tua guida controcorrente per investire bene nella Borsa e nella Vita
Non la vedi, ma c'è. Non dorme, non si stanca, non sbaglia quasi mai. Ti osserva, ti ascolta e — sempre più spesso — decide per te.Alexa ti sveglia, Siri ti ricorda un appuntamento, Google ti guida nel traffico, ChatGPT ti prepara un riassunto per il lavoro. L'intelligenza artificiale non è più nei laboratori o nei film di fantascienza: è dentro ogni gesto quotidiano, nelle nostre scelte, perfino nei nostri investimenti.Oggi è il motore invisibile che alimenta produttività, profitti e — forse — nuove bolle speculative.Per le aziende è una promessa di efficienza. Per i mercati, un sogno che sembra non voler finire.Ma dietro questa corsa c'è una domanda che pochi osano porsi: chi guadagna davvero da questa rivoluzione? Nel nuovo episodio di Financial Fitness, con Salvatore Gaziano di SoldiExpert SCF, raccontiamo il lato economico e finanziario dell'AI.Dal boom delle Big Tech alle ombre sulla sostenibilità degli investimenti miliardari nei data center, fino al rischio di consegnare il nostro futuro (e i nostri risparmi) a un “pensiero unico” digitale.
In this episode of the Technology & Security podcast, host Dr. Miah Hammond-Errey is joined by Professor Ganna Pogrebna. They explore the intersections of behavioural data science, AI, cybersecurity, and technology adoption. The discussion covers urban-rural technology divides and the dilemmas faced by small businesses using "off the shelf" AI tools. It explores Australia's global position in quantum algorithms and cybersecurity innovation and digital twins, showcasing their role in simulating complex systems in cybersecurity and even nuclear decision-making. This episode highlights the limits of machine learning for fighting misinformation, emphasising that humans still detect novel attacks better than algorithms. Ganna shares practical inclusion strategies that policy and industry leaders can adopt, such as "inclusion riders" in contracts to increase representation. The conversation closes on actionable ways to bridge the research-adoption gap, the evolving challenge of leading human–machine teams, and the enduring need for experimentation and resilience as technology, policy, and society evolve.

Property decisions often start with the data — suburb reports, growth charts, AI predictions. But while those numbers give you a useful baseline, they can't tell you everything that matters.In this episode, Veronica and Meighan explore where big data helps… and where it doesn't — and why those numbers don't always paint the full picture when buying your first home. They look at where big data can guide you, where it can mislead you, and how local knowledge, context, and on-the-ground experience still play a crucial role in choosing the right property.They also talk about what gets lost when buyers depend too heavily on automated tools and averages — and why some of the most important details about a home or suburb never show up in the stats.By the end of this episode, you'll understand how to gather the right kind of data — combining the big-picture insights with what you can only learn from being there yourself. It's not about ignoring the numbers. It's about knowing what they miss.Episode Highlights00:00 – Introduction01:09 – Why Blanket “Rules” Don't Always Hold True02:07 – The Appeal and Pitfalls of Big Data02:41 – The Unseen Nuances: From Street Position to Lifestyle Fit05:35 – Macro Data vs. Micro Reality11:54 – When Personal Needs Outweigh the Numbers16:48 – How to Use Data Wisely Without Getting Stuck Chasing “Perfect”17:46 – Real-Life Lessons from Buyers20:54 – Final TakeawaysMentionsEpisode 252 – Are You Being Too Picky For Your Own GoodCourse Details:THE First Home Buyer Course is our Step-By-Step, No BS Guide to Every Stage of The Home Buying Process – It's the next best thing to having your own buyer's agent.

She unpacks the global trends shaping the sector—from the rise of renewables to digital transformation—and explores how we must rethink infrastructure to meet rising expectations. She also discusses: · Why energy demand is rising and how renewable energy and low-carbon sources will come into play. · The emerging role of small modular reactors and what countries are already taking action. · The need for grid resilience—and how digital twins, edge, and AI (artificial intelligence) can help. http://peggysmedleyshow.com
Traditional AR and AP finance is no longer enough. With evolving disclosure requirements, tariff pressures, and increasing supplier expectations, treasurers must deliver liquidity and visibility with fewer resources while managing heavier supplier demands. In this episode, Sean VanGundy and Jeremy Reedus join Craig Jeffery from Strategic Treasurer and Michel Abranches from Monkey Tech (Money is Key) to explore how working capital 2.0 helps treasurers move beyond one-size-fits-all programs. They discuss how hybrid approaches, such as auction-based supplier financing for lower rates alongside automated dynamic discounting, can optimize AR and AP, strengthen supplier adoption, and deliver measurable EBITDA impact. The conversation also highlights how real-time visibility gives treasurers a true decision cockpit and how removing the lift of supplier onboarding and support enables higher participation and improved governance. https://www.monkeytech.com/

Peggy Smedley and Rahul Shahani, partner, McKinsey & Co., talk about AI (artificial intelligence) in manufacturing and the frontline worker. He says the core work of manufacturing doesn't change, but AI will bring new capabilities to manufacturing. They also discuss: · How agentic AI can help build an optimal production schedule, bringing higher quality products and empowering the workers with dynamic scheduling. · How to train and engage the frontline worker alongside AI and how leaders can prepare. · That tech is only 20% of the fully loaded spend to change the way a process or business works to embrace AI—and what the other 80% is. http://www.mckinsey.com/
As the year comes to a close, Peggy has a reality check: can we really trust today's tech predictions? She takes listeners on a journey through past forecasts and unpacks why many bold claims never quite lived up to the hype—and gives her thoughts on how to turn this into action and strategy. She also discusses: · Why historical hindsight is necessary. · Why so many predictions miss the mark—and what it means for your business. · Critical questions every leader should ask before acting on the next forecast. https://peggysmedleyshow.com

In Deutschlands Hauptstadt plant die schwarz-rote Landesregierung, die öffentliche Überwachung auszuweiten. So sollen KI-Kameras bald das Verhalten von Bürgern scannen und analysieren. Im weltweiten Vergleich wird in Deutschland noch relativ wenig überwacht.
Nike's Principal Data Engineer Ashok Singamaneni joins Benjamin and Eldad to discuss his open-source data quality framework, Spark Expectations. Ashok explains how the tool, which was inspired by Databricks DLT Expectations, shifts data quality checks to before the data is written to a final table. This proactive approach uses row-level, aggregation-level, and query data quality checks to fail jobs, drop bad records, or alert teams - ultimately saving huge costs on recompute and engineering effort in mission-critical data pipelines.
John Pollock and Brandon Thurston chat with Douglas Pucci of Programming Insider about Nielsen's new method of tracking viewership and the negative impact it has shown for professional wrestling programs. Pucci explains how the new method differs from the previous model, its impact on other genres of programming, and why pro wrestling has seen significant decreases. Then, Pollock & Thurston chat about why this is a big story, WBD responds to Thurston's inquiry, and whether this could affect TNA.

Peggy Smedley and Alex Adamopoulos, chairman and CEO, Emergn, talk about the Global Intelligent Delusion survey and what it has revelated about today's businesses. Roughly 75% of business leaders expect to drive revenue from AI (artificial intelligence) initiatives in the next 12 months, yet 60% acknowledge AI expectations are growing faster than their ability to meet them. He says leaders expect AI to drive growth, but most aren't equipped to deliver at scale, saying the gap isn't even technology, it is capability. They also discuss: · If the return is being overhyped and why AI projects fail. · Why good product management is the bridge that closes this gap between expectation and capability—or ambition and execution. · Why learning and upskilling remain critical to sustaining long-term progress and profit. https://www.emergn.com
Peggy wraps up the month, giving her final thoughts about agentic AI (artificial intelligence).

In this episode, Lissa Druss & Thom Serafin talk through a recent study from the Alliance for the Great Lakes that sounds an alarm over lack of planning. Helena Volzer has been researching the foresight and regulatory actions needed to address the many ways we take our Lake Michigan water abundance for granted. Ms. Volzer is the Alliance for the Great Lakes Senior Source Water Policy Manager, and joins our chat room with some priceless guidance. You'll get a deep dive on the concept of consumptive water use, the importance of the Great Lakes Compact for sustainable water management, and the challenges posed by plastic pollution across the region.
"I think the biggest trap to potentially fall into is, "Hey, it's moving so fast, so much is changing. Let's just wait it out." Completely the wrong approach. You just gotta get started." Nick Eayrs from Databricks "As tech people within the shipping industry, how do we explain, how do we make it accessible to all our users? So that's where we came up with the idea of a data supermarket, with in mind really the target of enabling self-service for our business. So by giving the analogy of a supermarket, it was much easier at the beginning to explain our business." - Simon Fassot from Hafnia Fresh out of the studio, Nick Eayrs, Vice President of Field Engineering for Asia Pacific and Japan at Databricks, and Simon Fassot, General Manager and Head of Global Data and Analytics at Hafnia, join us to explore how data intelligence is transforming enterprise AI across diverse industries in Asia. Nick explained the fundamental distinction between general intelligence and data intelligence - emphasizing how enterprises gain competitive advantage by training AI on their proprietary data rather than public knowledge. Nick showcased customer success stories including Standard Chartered Bank and TechComBank and shared his perspectives on how senior executives can take advantage of AI by moving fast rather than wait and see. Last but not least, Nick offered what great would look like for Databricks in Asia Pacific and Japan in serving their customers. Adding the lens of the customer, Simon shared Hafnia's transformation from legacy SQL Server systems to a unified Databricks architecture serving their global shipping operations and elaborated on how the company is breaking down silos with their data supermarket and "Marvis" AI copilot for maritime operations based on retrieval augmented generation.
