In this official Routemize launch demo, DripJobs founder Tanner Mullen reveals why home service businesses lose hundreds of thousands of dollars in leads every year — and demos the tool built to fix it: instant booking, AI-powered route optimization, and a live AI voice agent thatschedules jobs for you.Tanner breaks down the psychology of why customers fill out your lead form and never book,why buyer intent has a shelf life, and how drive time quietly kills your calendar. Then he builds a Routemize account live — setting up territories, qualification rules, and booking forms — andshows all four ways customers can book: web form, chatbot, admin, and a real-time AI voice agent that books a route-optimized appointment on air. If you run a painting business, contracting company, or any home service business that drives to the customer, this is a masterclass in converting more leads without spending a dollar more on marketing.

More people are turning to AI chatbots with health questions, and they're getting quick, confident answers. But how much should you actually trust what AI tells you? In this episode, we hear from two doctors about whether AI can really help patients become more informed, and when you definitely still need a human doctor.  You'll hear from both Dr. Matthew Callstrom from Mayo Clinic and Dr. Celine Gounder from CBS News and KFF Health News.   Learn more about our guest(s): https://www.theNewsWorthy.com/shownotes Join us again for our 15-minute daily news roundups every Mon-Fri!  Become an INSIDER and get ad-free episodes here: https://www.theNewsWorthy.com/insider Get The NewsWorthy MERCH here: https://www.theNewsWorthy.com/merch Sponsors: For a limited time, get 60% off your first order, plus free shipping and free treats for life, when you head to Smalls.com/NEWSWORTHY.

Agentic AI zählt aktuell zu den spannendsten Entwicklungen im Bereich der künstlichen Intelligenz – doch was steckt eigentlich dahinter?  In dieser Folge sprechen Jonny, Stephan und Saqib darüber, wann aus einem klassischen KI-Chatbot ein echter KI-Agent wird, der nicht nur Antworten liefert, sondern eigenständig Aufgaben plant, Entscheidungen trifft und Prozesse ausführt.  Wir werfen einen Blick auf die Entwicklung von Generative AI hin zu Agentic AI und zeigen, warum der Erfolg eines KI-Agenten nicht von der Technologie allein abhängt, sondern vor allem vom richtigen Use Case.    Im Fokus steht das Microsoft-Ökosystem rund um Microsoft Copilot. Wir erklären die Unterschiede zwischen Copilot Studio Agents, Lightweight Agents und vordefinierten Agents und zeigen, wann welcher Ansatz in der Praxis sinnvoll ist.    Anhand konkreter Beispiele sprechen wir über Knowledge Agents, Support- und Ticketing-Lösungen, vollautomatisierte Prozesse sowie Erfahrungen aus Kundenprojekten. Außerdem diskutieren wir typische Herausforderungen – von Testing und Qualitätssicherung bis hin zu Governance und den häufigsten Stolpersteinen bei der Entwicklung von KI-Agenten.  Zum Abschluss werfen wir einen Blick nach vorne: Wie verändern Agentic AI und autonome Systeme die Art, wie Unternehmen Prozesse gestalten? Und welche Entwicklungen erwarten uns in den nächsten Jahren?    Eine Folge für alle, die verstehen möchten, wie Unternehmen mit Agentic AI den nächsten Schritt gehen – von intelligenten Assistenten hin zu echten digitalen Agenten.    Teile die Episode gerne mit Kolleginnen und Kollegen oder diskutiere mit uns: Wo siehst du das größte Potenzial von Agentic AI?    Proudly sponsored by @vonwinning mit dem besten WIN WIN Riesling & @kaffeebraun mit einzigartig gutem Espresso aus Aschaffenburg!       Zitate aus der Folge    Stephan    Meine Beobachtung beim Thema KI und Agentic AI ist: Viele Unternehmen haben aktuell FOMO – die Angst, den Anschluss zu verlieren.  Die Entwicklung ist rasant, und es gibt ständig neue Möglichkeiten. Deshalb sollte man am Ball bleiben, aber nicht jedem Hype hinterherlaufen.   Entscheidend ist, die richtigen Anwendungsfälle zu identifizieren und dort zu investieren, wo KI echten Mehrwert schafft.      Saqib     Mit generativer KI kommen wir bei Wissensfragen heute schon erstaunlich weit.   In der Arbeitswelt reicht das aber oft nicht mehr aus.   Unternehmen brauchen digitale Spezialisten, die Prozesse verstehen, Aufgaben ausführen und eigenständig handeln – genau hier beginnt die Welt der Agentic AI.      Jonny    Ein häufiger Fehler ist, direkt mit der Entwicklung eines Agenten zu starten, sobald ein möglicher Anwendungsfall gefunden ist.   Viel wichtiger ist es, zunächst das Ziel klar zu definieren: Was soll der Agent erreichen? Wie soll der Output aussehen?   Und auf welche Datenquellen soll er zugreifen? Je klarer diese Anforderungen sind, desto besser wird das Ergebnis.      In den kommenden Podcast-Folgen bekommst du:    Infos und Tipps rund um die M365-Welt und ihre Anwendungen wie Power BI und Power Apps  Inspiration und praktische Tipps für den Kulturwandel für dich oder dein Unternehmen, um immer einen Schritt voraus zu sein  Wertvolle Impulse für ein bewusstes Mindset  Tipps zu praktischen Tools, die deinen Change unterstützen können, egal ob persönlich oder als Unternehmen  Viele weitere Einblicke in die Welt des New Work    Let's connect  Du hast Ideen, Themenvorschläge oder Anregungen zum Thema, dann teile gerne deine Gedanken mit uns und schick uns eine Nachricht an podcast@kom4tec.de oder auf Instagram @kom4tec  Wir freuen uns von dir zu hören.   Follow us!   Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/KOM4TEC/   Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/kom4tec/   LinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/company/10407066/          

The race to build the most advanced artificial intelligence continues to dominate the headlines. On this week's On the Media, who does this new technology actually serve? Plus, how even critical media coverage can feed into the AI hype. [01:00]  Host Brooke Gladstone sits down with Cory Doctorow, journalist, activist, and author of Enshittification, on his new guide to seeing through the relentless, $16 trillion AI hype machine and understanding the technology for exactly what it is, rather than the outlandish stories told about it. [16:47] Brooke continues her conversation with Cory, and they discuss how the hype itself is keeping the AI industry afloat.  [28:47] Brooke asks Cory about his rejection of the notion that AI domination – of our jobs, our lives, our art, and more – is inevitable. Plus, they interrogate the role of the tech in a creative's life, and why AI art leaves us cold.

In this episode, hosts Ted Stank and Tom Goldsby welcome back Jason Murray, co-founder and CEO of Shipium, and Thomas Deakins, VP of industry growth and adjunct lecturer in supply chain management at the University of Tennessee. The trio picks up where a previous conversation left off—only now, the AI landscape has shifted considerably.Murray offers a clear-eyed progression of where artificial intelligence actually stands today: from the machine learning roots that powered early wins at Amazon, through the generative AI wave that captivated the world with ChatGPT, and now into the era of agentic AI with systems that don't just respond to prompts, but act autonomously on behalf of organizations. He draws an important distinction between "human in the middle" and "human on the loop," and pushes back on the popular notion that dropping AI into an existing process will immediately deliver ROI. The real opportunity, he argues, lies in rethinking the process itself.The episode also touches on current supply chain headlines—tariff uncertainty, rising energy prices, and the growing infrastructure demands of AI data centers—before closing with a candid lightning round on AI myths, change management, and what Amazon got right that the rest of the industry is still catching up to.The episode was recorded virtually on July 22, 2026.Related links:Learn more about Shipium at shipium.comListen to Jason Murray's previous GSCI podcast appearance in March 2025Register for virtual SCM Academies in Leadership, Finance, Procurement, and TechnologySave the date for the Fall Supply Chain Forum, Nov. 10–12 Download free white papers from UT experts Become a GSCI partner to learn, network, and recruit with the top supply chain education institution in North America  Join the Advanced Supply Chain Collaborative to explore advanced concepts in SCM with top industry experts and scholars   Fill out Tom Goldsby's survey on warehouse automationFollow GSCI on LinkedIn   Subscribe to GSCI's monthly newsletter    Read the latest news and insights from GSCI.Text the Tennessee on Supply Chain Management team!

In 2022, a watershed moment changed the course of our relationship with AI forever, forcing us to reassess what ‘artificial intelligence' means and its place in our world. Four years later, with generative AI and LLMs now mainstream in our lives, we must ask the question: what comes next? This week, as part of our mini-series celebrating 60 years of innovation with HPE Labs, Technology Now is joined by Kirk Bresniker, Chief Architect at HPE Labs to look to the future and discuss: Why AI is more than just a language modelThe issues with ever-increasing model sizes, and why specialised “expert models” could become the normWhat the differences are between large language models and energy-based modelsHow agentic AI and orchestration could enable the next generation of AI systems

AI is becoming the friend people never argue with, never disappoint, and never switch off. New research suggests that's exactly the problem. A 12-month study of more than 2,000 adults found people who turned to AI chatbots for emotional support became more emotionally isolated over time. With more teens now sharing serious problems with AI instead of trusted adults, what does this mean for parents? Dr Justin Coulson explains why AI feels so comforting, why it can slowly replace real connection, and how parents can spot the warning signs before loneliness takes hold. KEY POINTS Why lonely people are more likely to turn to AI for emotional support. What a year-long study found about AI chatbots and loneliness. Why conversations with AI can start to feel easier than talking to real people. The growing number of teens taking serious problems to AI instead of trusted adults. The warning signs that AI is replacing healthy relationships. Four practical ways parents can respond without fear or blame. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE "A chatbot can simulate a friend, but it can't be one." RESOURCES MENTIONED Psychological Science study on AI chatbots and loneliness (2026) Professor Elizabeth Dunn, University of British Columbia Common Sense Media survey on teens and AI companions ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS Ask your child how they use AI before making assumptions. Find out whether AI is helping with schoolwork or replacing real conversations. Watch for fewer catch-ups with friends, more secrecy around AI, or distress when they can't access it. Build regular opportunities for real connection through family meals, sport, youth groups, part-time work, and time with friends. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

AI is transforming customer service, but are companies making things worse instead of better?

Jamie Dimon gaat Warren Buffett achterna. Ook hij vindt dat er geen goede aankopen meer te vinden zijn op de beurs. Al jaren dramt Dimon bij elke cijferpublicatie van zijn bank dat er een lange lijst aan risico's boven de markt hangt. Geopolitieke spanningen, instabiele inflatie, expoloderende staatsschulden: de kans is groot dat ze niet voldoende worden ingeprijst, denkt Dimon. Moet jij hem daarin volgen? Dat hoor je in deze aflevering. We hebben het ook over Samsung. Die maken al chips, koelkasten, televisies, telefoons, en nog veel meer. Maar het is allemaal niet genoeg. Ze gaan nu ook aan de humanoïde robots. Er wordt een aparte divisie voor opgezet, onder leiding van een van de co-CEO's zelf. Gaan ze de concurrentiestrijd met bijvoorbeeld Tesla winnen? Verder hoor je ook over een poging van de Londense beurs om weer aandacht te krijgen. Daarom gaan ze de openingstijden flink verbreden. Ze willen eigenlijk handel 24 uur per dag mogelijk maken. En we vertellen je hoe de strijd tussen farmaceuten Novo Nordisk en Eli Lilly nu naar de rechtszaal wordt verplaatst. Te gast: Thomas Pellegrom, van ABN Amro MeesPierson BNR Beurs is een journalistiek onafhankelijke productie, mede mogelijk gemaakt door Saxo. Over de makers: Jelle Maasbach is presentator van BNR Beurs en freelance financieel journalist. Zijn favoriete aandeel om over te praten is Disney, maar daar lijkt hij de enige in te zijn. Sinds de eerste uitzending van BNR Beurs is 'ie er bij. Maxim van Mil is presentator van BNR Beurs en journalist bij BNR, waar hij zich focust op de financiële markten en ontwikkelingen in de tech-wereld. Je krijgt hem het meest enthousiast als hij kan praten over ASML, of oer-Hollandse bedrijven zoals Ahold of ABN Amro. Jorik Simonides is presentator van BNR Beurs, economieredacteur en verslaggever bij BNR. Hij wordt er vooral blij van als het een keer níet over AI gaat. Je hoort hem ook in de BNR-podcast Moerdijk: dorp van de rekening. Milou Brand is presentator van BNR Beurs, freelance podcastmaker en columnist bij het Financieele Dagblad. Jochem Visser is presentator van BNR Beurs, maakt Beursnerd XL en is redacteur bij de podcast Onder Curatoren. Vraag hem naar obscure zaken op financiële markten en hij vertelt je waarom het eigenlijk nóg leuker is dan je al dacht. Over de podcast: Met BNR Beurs ga je altijd voorbereid de nieuwe beursdag in. We praten je in een kleine 25 minuten bij over alle laatste ontwikkelingen op de handelsvloer. We blijven niet alleen bij de AEX of Wall Street, maar vertellen je ook waar nog meer kansen liggen. En we houden het niet bij de cijfers, maar zoeken ook iedere dag voor je naar duiding van scherpe gasten en experts. Of je nu een ervaren belegger bent of net begint met je eerste stappen op de beurs, de podcast biedt waardevolle inzichten voor je beleggingsstrategie. Door de focus op zowel de korte termijn als de lange termijn, helpt BNR Beurs luisteraars om de ruis van de markt te scheiden van de essentie.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, we take a look at a couple of acronyms that are soaring in popularity and ask what their widespread adoption means for mental health. Maggie Harrison Dupré of Futurism has been following the AI space closely and has an update on lawsuits related to chatbots' culpability in numerous cases of attempted and completed suicides. She also explains some recent research about why prolonged engagement with the sycophantic computer programs can lead to spiraling out of reality. Then we're joined by Dr. Thomas Rutledge for a look at drugs like Ozempic and Zepbound. While the drugs are so new that research is slim, some psychological issues can emerge, especially related to self image and identity. He asks if food cravings and thinking about food have occupied a lot of space in your mind for years, what happens when that goes away? It's a complicated world we live in, Depresh Mode is here to help you make more sense of it.

(DJOW) Follow us on Instagram @pebcakpodcast   Please share this podcast with someone you know!  It helps us grow the podcast and we really appreciate it!   Simple 6 signup link https://simple6.co/r/CFUR98   Kalshi's flight-cancellation betting market Kalshi filed with the CFTC to let traders bet on airline flight-cancellation rates, even as the company fights insider-trading scandals and nearly 20 gambling-related lawsuits. https://www.inc.com/moses-jeanfrancois/kalshi-wants-to-make-money-off-of-canceled-flights-new-sky-trading-plan/91374679 Kalshi's self-certification filing would let users trade "yes/no" contracts on whether a set percentage of flights at a given airport get canceled in a window, using FlightAware data (DOT stats as backup); preemptive cancellations count, delays/diversions don't — this comes as Kalshi is also defending nearly 20 federal/state suits (including one joined by NY AG Letitia James) arguing its sports contracts are unlicensed gambling, and after it fined three Congressional candidates for insider trading in April.   Trump's teleprompter operator under CFTC investigation The CFTC is investigating Trump's longtime teleprompter operator, Gabriel Perez, for allegedly using advance knowledge of the president's speeches to win big on Kalshi's "mention markets." https://www.cftc.gov/filings/ptc/ptc0714269602.pdf https://apnews.com/article/trump-teleprompter-insider-trading-kalshi-ccd6d0ec68e1eb15d100ad770d91abae Perez, who's run Trump's teleprompter since 2016 and reportedly made over $100,000 (Kalshi says north of $90,000 in frozen profits) betting on "mention markets" tied to specific words Trump would say in speeches, was put on unpaid leave after Kalshi's surveillance team flagged the trades and referred the case to the CFTC — the White House called it "a disgrace," and it marks the first known case of a sitting administration employee investigated for prediction-market insider trading.   Microsoft's record-breaking July Patch Tuesday Microsoft's July 2026 Patch Tuesday fixed a record 570 flaws — including three zero-days — while a researcher dropped a new unpatched Windows PoC exploit within hours. https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/microsoft/microsoft-july-2026-patch-tuesday-fixes-massive-570-flaws-3-zero-days/ https://krebsonsecurity.com/2026/07/microsoft-patches-a-record-570-security-flaws/ https://thehackernews.com/2026/07/researcher-drops-new-windows-zero-day.html The 570-flaw haul (59 critical) included two actively-exploited zero-days — an AD FS elevation-of-privilege bug (CVE-2026-56155) and a SharePoint elevation-of-privilege flaw (CVE-2026-56164), both now on CISA's KEV list — plus a publicly disclosed BitLocker bypass; hours after patches dropped, researcher "Chaotic Eclipse" released a working PoC called LegacyHive targeting Windows' Profile Service that functions even on fully patched systems, continuing a months-long, increasingly public feud with Microsoft over disclosure timing.   China's AI companion chatbot crackdown China enacted rules banning "emotional reliance" on AI companion chatbots and virtual relationships with minors, part of a broader push tied to the country's fertility concerns. https://www.wsj.com/tech/ai/china-wants-more-babiesso-its-cracking-down-on-chatbot-love-affairs-65cd6c82 The new rules require companion-chatbot makers to get regulatory pre-approval, alert a user's emergency contact if they detect an emotional crisis, and have already pushed ByteDance's Doubao, Alibaba's Qwen, and Tencent's Yuanbao to shut down custom AI-persona features; researchers cited by WSJ say Beijing's underlying worry is that people bonding with chatbots could "take them out of the marriage market," tying directly into China's fertility push.   UK's midnight social media curfew for teens The UK is proposing a default midnight-to-6am social media curfew for 16- and 17-year-olds, with autoplay and infinite scroll switched off by default too. https://www.reuters.com/technology/uk-plans-default-midnight-social-media-curfew-16-17-year-olds-2026-07-14/ The curfew (opt-out, not mandatory) follows last month's full under-16 social media ban and is expected to take effect by spring 2027; a government trial of 300+ teens found it delivered the most consistent sleep benefits of the options tested, though critics like Shadow Education Secretary Laura Trott called an easily-switched-off curfew pointless.   Dad Joke of the Week (DJOW)   Find the hosts on LinkedIn: Chris - https://www.linkedin.com/in/chlouie/ Brian - https://www.linkedin.com/in/briandeitch-sase/

More teenagers are turning to AI chatbots for friendship advice, family conflict, and even romantic conversations. But what happens when artificial relationships begin replacing real ones? In this episode of Facing the Dark, Wayne and Dr. Kathy explore why God designed adolescents to learn conflict, empathy, forgiveness, and resilience through real people, not perfectly agreeable machines. Together, they unpack why AI can never satisfy our deepest relational needs and how parents can prepare children to use technology wisely without sacrificing the relationships that shape character.

Why AI Mental Health Chatbots Fail When It Matters Most: The Hidden Vulnerabilities Stress-Testing Reveals - An Interview with Shirali and Arul Nigam of Circuit Breaker Labs Shirali and Arul Nigam of Circuit Breaker Labs on why AI mental health chatbots fail, how stress-testing exposes their hidden vulnerabilities, and what therapists need to know. Curt and Katie talk with Shirali and Arul Nigam, the sibling co-founders of Circuit Breaker Labs, about what therapists tend to get wrong about AI, why the safety infrastructure behind many mental health chatbots is weaker than it looks, and how their team stress-tests these tools to find dangerous failures before real users ever encounter them. Generative AI is probabilistic, so the same prompt can return a safe answer one moment and a harmful one the next. Shirali and Arul explain how guardrails get bypassed by a misspelled word, a teenager's slang, or the hundredth message in a long conversation, why mental health chatbots tend to fail in the moments that matter most, and what stress-testing hundreds of thousands of simulated conversations actually reveals about model safety. The conversation closes on what clinicians can do now, why clinical insight is the missing ingredient in AI safety, and why third-party validation is becoming the standard regulators and developers expect. Used well, AI can be a supplement to care or a gateway to a human therapist, but it is not a replacement, and getting there safely starts with building clinical insight in from the foundation. In this episode, we discuss: - Why people usually turn to AI in place of no care, not in place of a therapist - Why generative AI's unpredictability, not a single bad answer, is the real safety problem - How a misspelling, slang, or a long conversation can slip past chatbot guardrails - Why AI mental health chatbots tend to fail in the highest-risk moments - What stress-testing hundreds of thousands of conversations reveals about model safety - Why clinical insight is the missing ingredient, and what clinicians can do now Timestamps: 0:00 - Introduction 1:38 - Meet Shirali and Arul Nigam and Circuit Breaker Labs 3:37 - What therapists get wrong about AI 5:28 - Deterministic versus generative AI, and why the risk scales 8:26 - The safety problem in AI mental health: trust, training data, and agreeableness 11:29 - Guardrails, lifeguard models, and the 988 problem 17:30 - Deploying clinical insight at scale and building safety in from the start 21:09 - How stress-testing works: context pollution and adversarial simulation 27:11 - What the stress tests reveal: variance, typos, and bypassed guardrails 30:59 - Regulation, credential hallucination, and third-party validation 36:58 - What clinicians can do, and the missing clinical insight 40:20 - Where to find Circuit Breaker Labs Guest Bios: Shirali and Arul Nigam are siblings and the co-founders of Circuit Breaker Labs, which autonomously pressure-tests the AI systems that interact with people to find hidden mental health vulnerabilities before they reach real users. Shirali brings expertise in neuroscience, translational research, and clinical work, with experience at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute's Janelia Research Campus, NIH NINDS, Harvard's Wyss Institute, Johns Hopkins, and Children's National. She holds a BS in Biomedical Engineering from The George Washington University and an MBA from The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania. Arul has conducted technical and policy research on ethical AI, with a focus on bias and fairness, at Georgetown University and Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology, and holds a BSBA in Operations and Analytics from Georgetown University.
