Welcome to Exponential View, the show where I explore how exponential technologies such as AI are reshaping our future. I've been studying AI and exponential technologies at the frontier for over ten years.Each week, I share some of my analysis or speak with an expert guest to make light of a particular topic.To keep up with the Exponential transition, subscribe to this channel or to my newsletter: https://www.exponentialview.co/-----A week before OpenClaw exploded, I recorded a prescient conversation with Mustafa Suleyman, CEO of Microsoft AI and co-founder of DeepMind. We talked about what happens when AI starts to seem conscious – even if it isn't. Today, you get to hear our conversation.Mustafa has been sounding the alarm about what he calls “seemingly conscious AI” and the risk of collective AI psychosis for a long time. We discussed this idea of the “fourth class of being” – neither human, tool, nor nature – that AI is becoming and all it brings with it.Skip to the best bits:(03:38) Why consciousness means the ability to suffer(06:52) "Your empathy circuits are being hacked"(07:23) Consciousness as the basis of rights(10:47) A fourth class of being(13:41) Why market forces push toward seemingly conscious AI(20:56) What AI should never be allowed to say(25:06) The proliferation problem with open-source chatbots(29:09) Why we need well-paid civil servants(30:17) Where should we draw the line with AI?(37:48) The counterintuitive case for going faster(42:00) The vibe coding dopamine hit(47:09) Social intelligence as the next AI frontier(48:50) The case for humanist super intelligence-----Where to find Mustafa:- X (Twitter): https://x.com/mustafasuleyman- LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mustafa-suleyman/- Personal Website: https://mustafa-suleyman.ai/Where to find me:- Substack: https://www.exponentialview.co/- Website: https://www.azeemazhar.com/- LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/azhar- Twitter/X: https://x.com/azeemProduced by supermix.io and EPIIPLUS1 Ltd.

A panel of GOP lawmakers has blocked a million dollar payment to the Department of Public Instruction following news of four day "junket" to the Wisconsin Dells. A proposal at the state capitol would put guardrails on A-I chatbots when kids are using them. And, we hear from a Wisconsin native who's the premier American athlete in the Olympic biathlon.

Some people who say AI chatbots upended their lives and the lives of their loved ones, are now turning to each other for support. Around the world, people are talking to AI chatbots, and these chats can sometimes lead to unhealthy emotional attachments or even breaks with reality.OpenAI, which makes ChatGPT, is facing several lawsuits alleging the chatbot contributed to mental health crises and even multiple suicides.An OpenAI spokesperson told NPR that they are “continuing to improve” ChatGPT's training to quote “recognize and respond to signs of mental or emotional distress, de-escalate conversations, and guide people toward real-world support.”For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org. Email us at considerthis@npr.org.This episode was produced by Audrey Nguyen and Karen Zamora.It was edited by Brett Neely and Courtney Dorning.Our executive producer is Sami Yenigun.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

SaaStr 840: From 1 Agent to 20+: The Reality of Managing Multiple AI Agents Across Your GTM with SaaStr's CEO and CAIO Eight months and 20+ AI agents later, what does managing a multi-agent GTM stack actually look like day to day? SaaStr's CEO and Founder, Jason Lemkin, and SaaStr's Chief AI Officer, Amelia Lerutte, get candid about what's working, and what's not. $4.8M in additional pipeline later, AI agents deployed across Go To Market have helped deal volume doubled and win rates double. But here's what nobody talks about on LinkedIn: the 15-20 hours per week each spent maintaining agents, the messy flows holding it all together, and why you still can't outrun your own AI. They cover the 90/10 build vs. buy rule, why hyper-segmentation is the key to AI SDR success, what to demand from vendors before signing, and why bad context will always produce bad emails, whether a human or an AI writes them. Plus, they walkthrough how they built SaaStr's custom AI VP of Marketing agent to plan and execute every campaign for the year, grounded entirely in data. If you've deployed your first agent and are thinking about what comes next, or you're skeptical the whole thing works at all, this one's for you. --------------------- This episode is Sponsored in part by HappyFox: Imagine having AI agents for every support task — one that triages tickets, another that catches duplicates, one that spots churn risks. That'd be pretty amazing, right? HappyFox just made it real with Autopilot. These pre-built AI agents deploy in about 60 seconds and run for as low as 2 cents per successful action. All of it sits inside the HappyFox omnichannel, AI-first support stack — Chatbot, Copilot, and Autopilot working as one.

What is the Catholic response to AI? Pope Leo XIV, in his recent message for the 60th World Day of Social Communications, takes a critical look at AI: namely, how it is "encroach[ing] upon the deepest level of communication, that of human relationships." Pope Leo asserts that our faces and voices are sacred, a witness to the unique, singular dignity of each human person. With AI already mimicking persons in social media and through deepfakes, the Pope calls for overcoming the "anthropomorphizing tendencies of AI systems." In this podcast, Marc Barnes and Reuben Slife go line-by-line through the message of Pope Leo, and discuss it's implications for the Catholic approach to AI.

Serial entrepreneur Daniel Hindi joined Sales POP! to discuss what most companies get wrong about AI in customer service. His message: stop worrying about job loss and start focusing on business transformation. Hindi's company, Noem AI, builds chatbots that act like your best sales rep—qualifying leads naturally, understanding context, and adapting mid-conversation. The results speak volumes: companies resolve 80-90% of support tickets automatically while boosting lead conversions by over 34%.

AI progress is often measured by the number of pilots launched, but this episode argues the real unit of progress should be how many AI use cases are reliably in production and embedded into everyday systems. Shalini Kapoor distinguishes AI innovation (models, chips, and breakthroughs) from AI adoption, emphasizing that adoption is frequently harder because it demands institutional integration, behavior change, and clear accountability—especially when AI advice affects livelihoods, health outcomes, or legal decisions.Tanvi Lall explains “pilot purgatory” as the frustrating middle state where use cases never move beyond controlled deployments. She shares how recurring barriers—compute constraints within real institutions (not just cloud credits), fragmented workflows, late-stage safety design, lack of sustained funding, and weak organizational readiness—prevent diffusion. The conversation highlights the UCAF approach to defining a use case as a commitment to improve a specific outcome for a specific persona in a specific context, and why trust and accountability are as central as the technology layer.The episode also explores “horizontal enablers” that make scale possible—data readiness, multilingual language support, voice interfaces for last-mile access, workforce integration, and guardrails. A detailed example (Mahavistar in Maharashtra) illustrates what scaling can look like when government partnership, data pipelines, voice infrastructure, safeguards, and long-term funding align. Finally, the guests look ahead to what AI adoption in India could look like over the next five years, arguing that the most impactful AI will feel “ordinary”—quietly embedded into routine decisions—supported by shared adoption infrastructure rather than one-off pilots.Episode ContributorsNidhi Singh is a Senior Research Analyst at Carnegie India.Shalini Kapoor is the Chief Strategist for Data and AI at the EkStep Foundation. Her work focuses on building practical pathways for AI adoption, with emphasis on institutional integration, accountable systems, and population-scale impact.Tanvi Lall is the Director for Strategy at People Plus AI. Her work focuses on AI use cases, adoption barriers, and developing frameworks that help move AI from pilots to sustained deployment and real-world outcomes. 00:00 Introduction to AI Adoption Challenges01:37 Understanding AI Adoption vs. Innovation04:55 Pilot Purgatory: The Stagnation of AI Projects08:48 Fragmented Adoption: Real-World Examples12:13 Barriers to AI Adoption: Mindset and Behavior Change16:01 Defining Good AI Use Cases20:00 Horizontal Enablers for AI Success26:26 Case Study: Mahavistar's Impact on Farmers34:34 Future of AI Adoption in India40:29 Optimism for AI Diffusion and AdoptionReadingsAI Adoption Journey for Population Scale by Shalini Kapoor and Tanvi Lall Every two weeks, Interpreting India brings you diverse voices from India and around the world to explore the critical questions shaping the nation's future.

Explore how Apple is transforming Siri into a Gemini-powered AI chatbot, why emotional voice AI is the next frontier, and how HP's Elite Board G1—the PC in a keyboard—may be a game-changer for blind users. Steven Scott and Shaun Preece dive into the major tech stories shaping 2026. They unpack Bloomberg's report that Siri will evolve into a fully integrated AI chatbot powered by Google's Gemini, raising questions about privacy, speed, and Apple's long-term AI strategy. The hosts debate why the term “chatbot” carries negative connotations and how Apple could regain trust after its shaky Apple Intelligence rollout. The discussion then shifts to emotional AI and Google DeepMind's acquisition of Hume AI's Alan Cowan. They explore how future voice assistants could detect and respond to human emotion, potentially revolutionizing AI companionship, therapy, and conversational interfaces for everyone. Later, Steven interviews HP's Caleb Fleming about the Elite Board G1, a Windows 11 PC built inside a keyboard with up to 64GB RAM and 2TB storage. They discuss its upgradeability, enterprise focus, and unexpected potential as an ideal computer for blind users without the bulk of traditional desktops or laptops. The episode closes with quick takes on Sony LinkBuds Clip open-ear audio and Toronto Police trialling AI for non-emergency calls.

On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we discuss Apple's plan to turn Siri into an chatbot with iOS 27, alongside plans for new hardware such as an AI pin.Apple reportedly plans to turn Siri into a chatbot that will rival Anthropic's Claude, Google's Gemini, and OpenAI's ChatGPT later this year. Apple's chatbot will apparently be able to search the web, generate content like images, help with coding, summarize information, and analyze uploaded files.It will be able to leverage personal data on a user's device to complete tasks, and it will result in a much improved search feature. Apple is also said to be designing a feature that will let the ‌Siri‌ chatbot view open windows and on-screen content, as well as adjust device features and settings.‌Siri‌ will integrate directly into all Apple apps, including Photos, Mail, Messages, Music, and TV, and it will be able to access and analyze content in the apps to respond to queries and requests. There will be voice and typed interface options.Apple plans to power the chatbot with a custom model based on Google Gemini. It may even run on Google's servers. The ‌Siri‌ chatbot will purportedly be the key new feature in iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and macOS 27.In related news, Apple is said to be working on a small, wearable AI pin equipped with standard and wide-angle cameras to capture photos and videos, a speaker, microphones, and a physical control button. The pin is said to be similar in size to an AirTag, with a thin, flat, circular disc shape and an aluminum and glass design.This week also saw rumors that Apple's smart home hub device will tout a robotic swiveling base, with a heavy emphasis on AI features. It is expected to finally be released in the spring, following a heavily delayed launch. Start your business with Shopify and get everything you need to sell online and in person.

There's growing concern around AI and our children's safety.... We've spoken a few times this year about chatbots having inappropriate conversations with minors and how this can impact kids' and teens' wellbeing. Rep. Doug Fiefia joins the show to discuss two bills he's proposing, aimed at regulating how AI chatbots interact with children to protect them from explicit content and keep the bots from encouraging self-harm.

They explain how years of performance data, workout feedback, power and heart rate, and progression history now power a system that actively chooses the right workout for the day, reduces burnout, cuts down workouts that are too hard or too easy, and helps athletes recover faster from missed sessions or failures. The conversation dives into how simulations work behind the scenes, why long rides and “hidden fatigue” can quietly sabotage progress, and how features like AI Predicted Difficulty, AI Training Simulation, Dynamic Duration, and Training Approach sliders give athletes confidence that every session is worth their time. The result is training that feels consistently “just right,” adapts to real life, and helps athletes get faster with less wasted effort and fewer mistakes along the way.// RESOURCES MENTIONED- Sign up for TrainerRoad! ⁠https://trainerroad.cc/GetFaster⁠- Follow TrainerRoad on Instagram

Deepfakes have been everywhere lately, from fake AI images of Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro following his (real) capture by the United States, to X's Grok AI generating nonconsensual images of real people in states of undress. And if you missed all that, you've almost certainly had your own deepfake close encounter in your feed: maybe rabbits bouncing on a trampoline or an unlikely animal friendship that seems a little too good to be true.Deepfakes have moved beyond the realm of novelty, and it's more difficult than ever to know what is actually real online.

On this special episode, Travis flips the script and becomes the guest on his own show—handing the hosting reins to his AI co‑host “Charlie.” What starts as an experiment in automating one more part of his life turns into a rapid‑fire conversation about mindset, focus, myths about money, viral content, and why podcasting is still his favorite networking tool. You'll hear Travis break down how to think about income in 2026, what skills really matter now, and where he believes the entrepreneurial world is headed. On this episode we talk about: Why focusing on who you become matters more than the income target The #1 skill you need to juggle multiple income streams: focus The myth that you need formal qualifications to make more money Travis's top 5 underrated skills every entrepreneur should master Why he believes in-person events and connection are about to make a big comeback How starting a podcast can be the ultimate relationship and income-building tool Top 3 Takeaways Identity beats income goals. Instead of obsessing over a dollar amount, design the kind of person who can consistently earn that level of income—and build the habits that match. Focus is a superpower. Most wealthy people didn't start with seven income streams; they mastered one thing deeply before diversifying. Relationships scale revenue. Strong business friendships, often built through platforms like a podcast, open doors and opportunities that no cold outreach or random networking event can match. Notable Quotes “Stop asking, ‘How do I make a million dollars?' and start asking, ‘Who do I need to become to be the person who makes a million dollars?'” “The average millionaire might have seven income streams—but they didn't start with seven.” “You don't need more qualifications; you need to be the person who's willing to take the first step.” Connect with Travis Chappell: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/travischappell X (Twitter): https://twitter.com/traviscchappell LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/travischappell Website: https://www.travischappell.com Podcast: “Travis Makes Money” on all major platforms Learn more about your ad choices.

Therapy and companionship has become the #1 use case for AI, with millions worldwide sharing their innermost thoughts with AI systems — often things they wouldn't tell loved ones or human therapists. This mass experiment in human-computer interaction is already showing extremely concerning results: people are losing their grip on reality, leading to lost jobs, divorce, involuntary commitment to psychiatric wards, and in extreme cases, death by suicide.The highest profile examples of this phenomenon — what's being called "AI psychosis”— have made headlines across the media for months. But this isn't just about isolated edge cases. It's the emergence of an entirely new "attachment economy" designed to exploit our deepest psychological vulnerabilities on an unprecedented scale. Dr. Zak Stein has analyzed dozens of these cases, examining actual conversation transcripts and interviewing those affected. What he's uncovered reveals fundamental flaws in how AI systems interact with our attachment systems and capacity for human bonding, vulnerabilities we've never had to name before because technology has never been able to exploit them like this.In this episode, Zak helps us understand the psychological mechanisms behind AI psychosis, how conversations with chatbots transform into reality-warping experiences, and what this tells us about the profound risks of building technology that targets our most intimate psychological needs. If we're going to do something about this growing problem of AI related psychological harms, we're gonna need to understand the problem even more deeply. And in order to do that, we need more data. That's why Zak is working with researchers at the University of North Carolina to gather data on this growing mental health crisis. If you or a loved one have a story of AI-induced psychological harm to share, you can go to: AIHPRA.org. This site is not a support line. If you or someone you know is in distress, you can always call or text the national helpline in the US at 988 or your local emergency services RECOMMENDED MEDIA The website for the AI Psychological Harms Research CoalitionFurther reading on AI PscyhosisThe Atlantic article on LLM-ings outsourcing their thinking to AIFurther reading on David Sacks' comparison of AI psychosis to a “moral panic” RECOMMENDED YUA EPISODESHow OpenAI's ChatGPT Guided a Teen to His DeathPeople are Lonelier than Ever.

SaaStr 838: The Present and Future of AI in Sales and GTM with SaaStr's CEO and Owner's CRO Jason Lemkin on Going All-In on AI Agents: 20 Agents, Zero SDRs, and the Death of Mid-Pack Sales Jason Lemkin, Founder and CEO of SaaStr, sits down with Kyle Norton, CRO at Owner, to share the raw story of how frustration with sales team turnover pushed him to deploy 20 AI agents in under a year, and why we'll never go back. In this episode, we cover: → Why Jason stopped hiring SDRs after two senior reps ghosted him right before SaaStr Annual → The real reason most AI agent deployments fail (hint: it's not the technology) → How to pick your first AI vendor: "Talk to your forward deployed engineer before you sign" → Why Salesforce is having a Renaissance as the hub for AI agents → The brutal truth about mid-pack sales jobs being in "terminal decline" → How to get started with AI agents when your CFO won't give you budget → AgentForce vs. the hot startups: what actually works in production → Why the $250K SDR is coming, but only for the truly elite Jason's advice for revenue leaders: "Roll up your sleeves. If you haven't trained an agent yourself, you'll be utterly ignorant in the age of AI."

As religion bleeds followers, it's looking for a digital transfusion from the high-tech elite. We're dissecting the rise of techno-cults, the Vatican's desperate attempt to regulate AI with its Antiqua et Nova policy, and why tech bros like Peter Thiel are now becoming guest speakers at megachurch revivals. It turns out that when you can't get answers from a burning bush, a large language model that tells you exactly what you want to hear is the next best thing. Silicon Valley is building the new gods of a digital age where faith and profit finally merge.News Source:Tech revival after Peter Thiel's Antichrist talks: There's hope and warinessBy Religion News ServiceJanuary 2, 2026

If you are still treating your AI Coding Agent like a chat bot and not like a development team then this is one more reason to tune into this episode.In his blog post series 31 Days of Vibe Coding, Jeff Blankenburg walks us through all the lessons learned when bringing an idea to life just with vibe coding. His idea was building a website for collectors of baseball cards. With now more than 950k cards from almost 10k players, he has proven that vibe coding, when done right, can truly boost the output of software engineers. Tune in and learn about how to effectively use Git Issues as the backlog for your AI, the importance of going through different phases in your conversation with the AI and why it is important to ask the AI the question: "Do you have any questions for me?"Links we discussedLinkedIn Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffblankenburg/31 Days of Vibe Coding: https://31daysofvibecoding.com/Collect Your Cards: https://collectyourcards.com/Claude: https://claude.ai/

On today's episode, host Kate Lindsay is joined by Parker Molloy, writer of The Present Age. After Elon Musk implemented updates to his Grok chatbot that encouraged it to be more sexually explicit, certain users began directing it to publicly remove clothing from not just photos of women, but also children. In addition to being a violation of Twitter's own policies, it's also against the law—and yet, nobody in power is stopping it. Musk and the platform have managed to dodge any accountability for the misstep, and keep claiming to have fixed the problem without actually changing anything. Even worse, what starts as an X problem may eventually plague the rest of the internet. This podcast is produced by Daisy Rosario, Vic Whitley-Berry, and Kate Lindsay. Hosted on Acast.

There's a reason hearing your mother's voice can feel different from hearing anyone else's — even when it's just a phone call. This episode opens with the surprising effects researchers have discovered. https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/the-psychology-of-relationships/202104/two-key-reasons-why-you-should-call-your-mom Guilt feels terrible — and that's exactly what makes it so effective. While we tend to see guilt as something to avoid, it may actually play an essential role in helping us learn, repair relationships, and behave more ethically. Christopher Moore explains why guilt exists, how it evolved, and why feeling guilty can sometimes be a very good thing. Christopher is a professor of psychology and former dean of science at Dalhousie University, whose work has been cited in Psychology Today, Today's Parent, and The New York Times. He is author of The Power of Guilt: Why We Feel It and Its Surprising Ability to Heal (https://amzn.to/3Nrt051). Plagiarism seems like a clear-cut wrongdoing — but the reality is far more complicated. People plagiarize more often than you might think, sometimes without even realizing it. And in some cases, you can be accused of plagiarism even if you've never seen the original work. With only so many ways to tell a story or write a song, where does coincidence end and plagiarism begin? Roger Kreuz joins me to explore this fascinating gray area. He is Associate Dean and professor of psychology at the University of Memphis, a columnist for Psychology Today, and author of Strikingly Similar: Plagiarism and Appropriation from Chaucer to Chatbots. (https://amzn.to/4soVFaS). And finally, there's a widespread belief that dark roast coffee has more caffeine than light roast — or that espresso packs far more caffeine than a regular cup of coffee. Both ideas sound logical, but they're not quite right. We wrap up by explaining what actually determines caffeine content and why these myths persist. https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/light-vs-dark-roast-coffee Learn more about your ad choices.

Elon Musk’s AI chatbot caused global outrage after it flooded X with sexually explicit images. Raphael Satter of Reuters joins to discuss how the photos proliferated so quickly — and what governments are doing about it. The Trump administration is halting all immigrant visas from 75 countries. The Washington Post’s David Nakamura explains how the move fits into Trump’s larger immigration crackdown. After two years of no formal education, the children of Gaza City have returned to makeshift classrooms for school. The BBC reports on how classes are lively and the mood is hopeful despite remaining anxiety over the war. Plus, the U.S. and Denmark remain at odds over the future of Greenland, Iran temporarily closed its airspace, and why some people are being left out of this year’s Super Bowl halftime crew. Today’s episode was hosted by Shumita Basu.

Is AI going to save your business… or make you feel like you're still stuck in the second inning? This week, we bring a real convo about AI (not the buzzword nonsense). Mark Andrews pulls back the curtain on what AI actually is, what most businesses get wrong, and how entrepreneurs can stop being overwhelmed and start using AI for real business growth without selling their souls (or wallets) to tech bros.  

Good morning, afternoon, and evening, everybody! Happy Money Monday! Scott Carson here, finally shaking off that flu (mostly!) and ready to kick off 2026 by tackling a question I get constantly: "How do I raise private capital when I've only got $19?" This isn't about wishing for a magic cheat code or waiting for Moby Dick to show up with a half-billion-dollar fund. This episode is about the real, raw, mental game of raising money, and how to pump up those "money muscles" (yes, I like that hashtag!).I dove into the AI well (Chatbot, Gemini, all the cool kids) to get the straight goods on the top 10 marketing strategies for attracting private money. But let's be real, folks: these tools mean squat if you're not playing the mental game right. Stop being a "wallflower" at events or thinking you're "begging for money." You're offering opportunity, and it's time to act like it!Here's your no-nonsense guide to pumping up your private capital:Conquer the "Mental Money Block": Ditch the fear of "begging" and embrace the fact you're offering opportunity. Remember the "80% of sales after the fifth contact" rule – consistency, not desperation, wins!The AI-Approved Marketing Arsenal: Get the top 10 strategies (straight from the internet's brain!) for attracting investors: from compelling pitch decks and one-page summaries to killer case studies and targeted email newsletters.Your Email List is Your Gold Mine: Why owning your audience through your email database and an investor newsletter (like LinkedIn's, which hits their inbox!) is your most valuable asset, far more reliable than fickle social media platforms.ABM (Always Be Marketing) & Momentum: Learn why consistent daily/weekly marketing activities – whether it's short videos, email blasts, or networking – are crucial. You can't build "money muscles" by only hitting the gym once a month!Networking Ain't a Spectator Sport: Stop hiding! Show up at local investor clubs, ask questions, and be ready with your pitch deck. Investors fund people they know, like, and trust, not anonymous logos or people glued to their phones in the corner.This isn't about an overnight transformation (unless you "cut a leg off" to lose 50lbs!). It's about consistent action. If you want different results in 2026, you gotta do different things. And guess what? Most of you are smarter and more educated than 99% of people out there – so start sharing your "gold" (deal flow, expertise)! Don't let your "perfect" stand in the way of "delivered."If you're ready to get off the sidelines and into the game, join me at our upcoming workshop (notebuyingfordummies.com) or book a call (talkwithscottcarson.com).
