He's back, and he's ready to talk botnet takeovers. Tillmann Werner, VP of Intelligence Production at CrowdStrike, returns to the podcast to discuss CrowdStrike's coordinated takeover of the Glassworm botnet. Glassworm was a global threat targeting software developers through the open-source supply chain. This infection vector stood out — open-source ecosystems are based on trust, and adversaries are learning they can reach a vast pool of victims by compromising the supply chain. Some open-source libraries get 100 million downloads per week. Glassworm was described as an “unkillable” botnet. Resilience was built into its design, which relied on four different command-and-control channels. This made the takeover complicated because a botnet can't be taken over until all command-and-control mechanisms are suppressed. “Once it's down, you gotta make sure it's down,” said Adam, who calls Tillmann the “bot slayer.” In this episode, they get into the details: what Glassworm was after, how its unknown operators strengthened its infrastructure, and the planning and execution behind the takeover. Tillmann and his team facilitated the process by conducting extensive technical analysis, understanding Glassworm's evolution, and spotting the opportunity to disrupt it. They worked with partners across the private and public sectors, as well as internally at CrowdStrike, to do it safely and avoid disrupting critical systems. Come for the behind-the-scenes details, and stay for the debate around baking the perfect pizza in this episode of the Adversary Universe podcast.

AI agents can do all sorts of tasks for us — including shopping — but how do we know the bots are working for us, and not the company that made them? Plus, we ask if 99 cent price tags are finally being phased out, and make the case for why we might be in the golden age of free TV. So let's enjoy it while it lasts.

What if the content you see online isn't as organic or random as it appears? In this discussion, the conversation explores how social media may be shaped by hidden forces, ranging from bots and coordinated influence campaigns to algorithmic amplification that can distort what looks popular, real, or widely agreed upon.

In this episode of Selective Ignorance, Mandii B is joined by A-King, Jason “Jah” Lee, and Yomi for a wide-ranging conversation that blends sports, politics, culture, technology, and modern relationships through the show's signature lens of curiosity and critical thinking. The episode opens with the crew celebrating the New York Knicks' Finals victory and the energy surrounding New York sports culture [ 02:00 ], before shifting into a discussion about the highly debated Karmelo Anthony trial and the public reaction surrounding the case [ 09:53 ]. The hosts reflect on the excitement of game-day experiences in New York City [ 19:51 ], highlighting the unique connection between sports, community, and civic pride.

As the discussion continues, the crew examines reports of discrimination, public embarrassment, and unequal treatment within international sports [ 38:04 ], while also addressing cultural misunderstandings and the impact of mispronunciations, stereotypes, and global ignorance [ 40:31 ]. They explore the evolution of football and soccer culture in America [ 42:22 ], as well as the unique experiences of fans navigating major international sporting events [45:30 ]. From there, the conversation pivots toward deeper societal issues, including racial bias within the legal system and the unequal application of justice [ 54:07 ], before emphasizing the importance of political engagement, civic responsibility, and community activism [ 01:01:32 ].

June 16th, 2026, Court Leader's Advantage Podcast EpisodeWhen former Google CEO Eric Schmidt, real estate executiveGloria Caulfield, and music executive Scott Borchetta praised artificial intelligence during recent commencement addresses, graduates responded not with applause but with boos. For a growing number of Americans, especially youngerworkers entering the workforce, AI is no longer viewed primarily as a tool of innovation and opportunity. Rather, it is increasingly seen as a threat to jobs, economic security, and public trust.The concerns are multifaceted. AI's massive demand forelectricity and water raises environmental questions. Its capacity to generate misinformation and "hallucinated" facts raises concerns about public trust and the integrity of information. Most significant for Generation Z, however, is the fear that AI will fundamentally alter the job market andundermine economic security.Many technology leaders appear largely unmoved by theseconcerns. Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, has argued that fears of widespread job displacement are overstated. Jensen Huang, CEO of Nvidia, contends that workers will not lose jobs to AI itself, but rather to workers who know how to use AImore effectively. Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon, has similarly predicted that AI will increase productivity, create new opportunities, and improve living standards rather than simply eliminate jobs.The public remains unconvinced.A March 2026 Quinnipiac University poll found that 70% ofAmericans believe AI will reduce the number of available jobs. Among Generation Z, concern is even more pronounced, with 81% believing advances in artificial intelligence are likely to decrease employment opportunities.These concerns are fueled by highly visible workforcereductions. In 2025, Amazon announced approximately 14,000 corporate layoffs while acknowledging that AI-enabled efficiencies played at least a partial role in workforce reductions.[i] UPS announced plans to eliminate 20,000 positions. While the main reason for the reduction in force was a pullback by Amazon, CEO Carol Tomé also cited efficiencies from implementing AI.[ii] Cisco reduced itsworkforce by more than 4,000 employees while increasing its focus on AI-driven networking and security products.[iii] For many workers the message is unmistakable: artificial intelligence means fewer jobs rather than greater opportunity.Courts have historically been cautious adopters of newtechnology, and artificial intelligence appears to be no exception. Yet courts also face chronic staffing shortages, budget constraints, growing caseloads, and increasing pressure to improve efficiency. State legislatures, funding authorities, and court leaders may soon begin asking whether AI can help courts accomplish more with fewer resources.This month, we examine the growing backlash againstartificial intelligence. Is it a temporary reaction or the beginning of a lasting shift in public attitudes? Are court professionals and the public prepared for the inevitable transition? [i]Variety, "Amazon Says It Will Lay Off 14,000 Corporate Workers, Citing AI" (October 31, 2025)[ii] Gulf News, "AI Job Cuts: Major Companies Replacing Humans with Bots in 2025" (February 21, 2026)[iii] PBS (October 28, 2025), “Despite reporting record quarterly revenue of $15.8 billion — up 12% year-over-year —Cisco announced layoffs representing less than 5% of its global workforce, as the company realigned around AI-driven growth”Today's PanelTJ BeMent Court Administrator, 10th Judicial Administrative District Athens, GeorgiaRick Pierce Judicial Programs Administrator, Administrative Office of the Courts, Mechanicsburg, PennsylvaniaKarl Thoennes Court Administrator, Second Judicial Circuit Court, Sioux Falls, South DakotaCreadell Webb Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Officer, 1st Judicial District of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia,Pennsylvania

Al alquilar una habitación en casa de la viuda Charlotte Haze, queda fascinado por su hija de doce años, Dolores, a quien él apoda Lolita. Para permanecer cerca de ella, acepta casarse con la madre. Sin embargo, un giro trágico de los acontecimientos desata un viaje asfixiante y tormentoso por las carreteras americanas, donde la manipulación, los celos y la perversión se disfrazan de amor obsesivo, arrastrando a ambos hacia una inevitable destrucción moral y psicológica.

[Part One of Two] In Part One of this two-part episode, investigative journalists Mandy Matney and ⁠Liz Farrell⁠ put it all on the table as the Beach family civil conspiracy case against billionaire gas station owner Greg Parker gets EVEN MORE CHAOTIC. Through motions filed Friday, the Beaches accuse Parker, his bank and his counsel of lying, hiding or not producing relevant records and telling a research company to willfully disobey a lawful subpoena.  According to the filing, Greg Parker wired $383,000 to an Israeli defense contractor — Demoman International Ltd.— that, according to a 2023 news investigation, serves as a middle man for the sale of highly sophisticated bot-farm software (Advanced Impact Media Solutions) to unscrupulous politicians, governments, corporations and wealthy businessmen to manipulate public opinion using fake social media accounts.  Parker unequivocally denies releasing photos of Mallory's dead body to the public, but this latest development raises serious questions about who else might have gotten the photos and why.  Plus, why Greg Parker says he can't get a fair trial in Hampton County and says Judge Kelly needs to move the case to … Spartanburg? Let's Dive In…

Many people, when they hear the word propaganda, immediately associate it with Nazi Germany and torchlight parades or Putin reviewing the troops in Red Square. But propaganda has Roman Catholic church origins going as far back as 1622, when Pope Gregory issued a proclamation using the term to exhort the faithful to propagate the faith. Today, propaganda is disseminated far and wide through the internet. It is used by autocrats to shield themselves and their policies from public view. Bots are at work. Malicious actors spread fake news. Deceptive techniques are so sophisticated that it is sometimes difficult to separate fact from fiction. Misinformation is eroding public trust in institutions and stressing and straining democracy. Stories are planted, rumors are spread, lies are told, and narratives are laundered.

Send us Fan MailThe onslaught of customer AI agents.In the next 9 to 12 months, your customer will be able to say “hey Siri, call my subscription company and cancel my plan, then chat with the ABC airline and move my flight from Tuesday to Wednesday.”The AI agent launches the call or chat. It acts on their behalf.Think about what that does to your cx volume. Interactions are going to skyrocket. This is when and why AI in your contact center stops being optional. You'll need it just to handle the sheer volume of bots coming at you.So the question becomes whether you have an AI front door. Something that can answer these calls, do the basic triage, and hand off to a human only when it actually needs one.You can still have human service for human callers but you will need Ai to handle the Ai. IMO Sla will become less and less of a core metric as bots will wait in queue and won't care. How we operate will change too. All you centers with retention lines and agents. How do you downsell or save a bot told to cancel?And it's going to be really bad at first. Customers will not be happy with the bot outcomes. They will call you back to try to fix. It will get better but it's going to be a rocky start. Volume are going up. This is one of the main things we're thinking about at Expivia. And it's exactly what we're getting ready to help our BPO customers handle.The bots are coming. The centers that planned for them win. The ones that didn't get buried.

If at first you don’t succeed, try again.  If you don’t succeed the second time, blame everyone else and LITIGATE! Low ABV beer is perfectly acceptable; but I feel like most “dads” aren’t looking for this particular marketing gimmick. The post Episode 640 – WHEN THE BOT DELETES YOUR AUDIO FILE… first appeared on The Craft Beercast.

"The new owners of Fender since 2020 are attempting to own the copyright on the Stratocaster body. A German court has taken them part of the way but most experts don't believe it will hold up to scrutiny. Nonetheless, Fender has sent Cease and Desist letters to multiple guitar makers telling them to stop production, call back orders and destroy stock. Fender may have just committed brand suicide because history is not on their side."

Rebecca Hinds, author of "Your Best Meeting Ever" and Head of the Work AI Institute at Glean, breaks down the surprising findings from the new Work AI Index 2026 report surveying 6,000 workers. While 87% now use AI and report saving 13 hours per week, only 13% say their organization is performing significantly better—a paradox explained by two new concepts: "botsitting" (the hidden labor of making AI useful) and "botshitting" (delivering AI-generated work you can't defend). They discuss practical solutions including better-integrated AI systems, smarter AI detection policies, and aligning work to meaningful missions.

When you talk to a chatbot, it can feel like technological magic. But behind the illusion of engineering brilliance is an open secret in the tech industry: that tens of thousands of workers, many based in Africa, spend their days teaching AI how to speak, respond, and even simulate intimacy. Michael Geoffrey Asia is one of them. He's part of the hidden human workforce behind the bots.We look at the emotional toll for the humans on the other side of the screen, and ask if users are pouring their secrets and souls into the systems, believing them to be private, unfeeling machines — how private is your AI relationship?This episode features Karen Hao, Michael Geoffrey Asia, and Shuby Goel.

What if a big slice of your ad budget never reaches a real human? If you've ever stared at your digital ads dashboard thinking “the clicks are there, so why is nobody buying?” you're not alone and you're not crazy. You might think there's a problem with your content or creative. But sometimes the problem isn't your offer or your copy. Sometimes it's ad fraud, click fraud, and invalid traffic quietly polluting your funnel.In this episode, I sat down with Rich Kahn, co-founder and CEO of Anura.io, to put plain language around a messy topic. Rich explains how fraud shows up for small businesses, what the common warning signs look like (high traffic, low conversions, leads that don't respond, people who swear they never filled out your form), and why “good” KPIs like click-through rate can be dangerously easy for fraudsters to game. You'll also hear how fraud can hide in places people assume are safe, including partner networks and even “organic” traffic.Send us Fan MailSupport the showShow Notes  Apply to be featured on My Weekly Marketing!Take the Marketing Clarity Quiz and get instant insights on your marketing strategy.

La neurocientífica Sara Mederos premio ‘For Women in Science', concedido por un programa de L'Oréal y la Unesco en reconocimiento a tu talento científico femenino. trabaja en investigación científica en el Hospital del Mar Research Institute, en Barcelona, tratando de descifrar cómo el cerebro convierte el miedo y la ansiedad en decisiones. Existen zonas de nuestro cerebro que están sobre activadas con los miedos innatos, todo lo ven como una amenaza y no integran los nuevos contextos. En la investigación se intenta localizar cuáles son algunos de los circuitos involucrados en responder ante una misma situación de forma no invasiva. Para Sara la curiosidad científica no entiende de género y "Lo más importante en ciencia es disfrutar el camino con tu equipo".

Microsoft just went AI agent first at Build 2026, announcing Project Solara, an OpenClaw-style assistant called SCOUT, and seven new MAI models. Plus new image models from Reve and Ideogram, ElevenLabs teams with Hasbro to license character voices, and a quantum chip breakthrough. This week on AI For Humans, it's Hot Agent Summer and even stuffy Microsoft is going all-in. We break down everything from Microsoft Build 2026: Project Solara pushing agents into small devices, SCOUT, their OpenClaw-inspired personal assistant for Windows, and a fresh family of seven MAI models trained with no synthetic data and no distillation. Then we get into the agent interfaces beyond Microsoft (Town), the wild stat that bots have now passed humans for internet traffic, new image models from Reve 2.0 and a now open-source Ideogram 4.0, ElevenLabs partnering with Hasbro on licensed character voices like Optimus Prime, a quantum chip breakthrough, and the Chipotle chatbot that got left wide open. Roll out, humans. It's AI For Humans! IT'S HOT AGENT SUMMER. AND THE AI AGENTS ARE WINNING.

If you have a debt, you may get a call, a letter or a text prodding you to pay it back. Now, that call could come from an AI agent.The AI debt collection market is expected to reach $16 billion by 2034, according to the Kaplan Group. Kate Nibbs of Wired has been reporting on this and said these bots are not as effective at getting people to pay back the money they owe.
