Matt MacInnis is the chief product officer and former longtime COO at Rippling, a unified workforce management platform valued at over $16 billion.We discuss:1.

Kilowatt Holiday Special 2025: Naughty Lists, EV Poems, and AI TunesIn this festive and satirical holiday special, Bodiei mixes electric vehicle news with creative flair. He kicks things off with a witty "EV Naughty and Nice List," calling out range anxiety myths, opportunistic dealers, and software-locked horsepower, while celebrating Rivian, Lucid, and automakers finally chasing affordability. The show features original AI-assisted music tracks like Math Beats Vibes, Prophets and Margins, and A Mouthful of Promises But Nothing to Chew, all written and crafted by Bodhi using tools like Suno and ChatGPT. He also performs a clever EV parody poem, “Twas the Night Before the Write-Down,” skewering Ford's shifting EV strategy. To close, Bodhi roasts himself with a tongue-in-cheek AI-generated song about his podcasting quirks and habits. It's a humorous, heartfelt, and musically inventive end-of-year celebration packed with insight and originality.Support Children's Miracle Network

Von der CES, bis zum RTX-50-Release und noch viel weiter. Wir blicken zurück auf das vergangene Jahr und sprechen über Themen, die uns bewegt haben. Daraus entsteht ein bunter Themenmix.

C'est un sujet qui a passionné les lecteurs de ZDNET cette année, et il est idéal si, entre la dinde et la bûche, votre oncle vous demande comment l'intelligence artificielle va encore évoluer.Vous pourrez lui répondre que la prochaine étape, c'est la fin du choix cornélien entre rapidité et intelligence.Le cœur de cette révolution, c'est ce que Nick Turley, le responsable de ChatGPT, décrit comme une unification totale des modèles d'IA dans les chatbots.Une gymnastique mentale souvent fastidieuseJusqu'à présent, nous étions habitués à devoir choisir manuellement notre modèle d'IA. Cette gymnastique mentale, souvent fastidieuse pour l'utilisateur, disparait avec les nouvelles versions des chatbots d'IA.L'idée derrière ce nouveau modèle est d'automatiser cette décision. Concrètement, le système fonctionne de manière beaucoup plus humaine.Si vous lui posez une question triviale, il vous répondra du tac au tac, en utilisant un modèle économe et rapide."Réfléchir" avant de répondreEn revanche, si vous lui soumettez une équation complexe ou une question pointue en sciences de l'environnement, l'IA prend le temps de "réfléchir" avant de répondre, et ce en activant ses capacités de raisonnement approfondi.Comme le souligne Sam Altman, le patron d'OpenAI, l'objectif est d'obtenir une fluidité conversationnelle où l'IA adapte son temps de latence à la difficulté de la tâche, et ce sans que vous n'ayez rien à configurer.Pour les entreprises et les professionnels, cet impact est majeur. Le collaborateur en entreprise n'a plus besoin d'être un expert en "prompt engineering" ou de connaître les subtilités de chaque version pour obtenir le meilleur résultat.Cette approche "tout-en-un" promet de simplifier drastiquement l'adoption de l'IA générative dans les processus métiers, en garantissant toujours la réponse la plus pertinente, qu'elle nécessite une seconde ou une minute de réflexion.Le ZD Tech est sur toutes les plateformes de podcast !

The latest In Touch With iOS with Dave Ginsburg. He is joined by Patrice Brend'amour, Jeff Gamet, Eric Bolden, and Marty Jencius. A year-end discussion covering Apple's biggest stories of 2025. The panel dives into the Vision Pro M5 update, iOS 26.3 beta changes, iPhone 17 improvements, iPad's role as a laptop replacement, Apple's transition away from Intel Macs, security concerns, and reflections on AI tools like ChatGPT as the year comes to a close.

The discussion begins with a deep dive into Apple Vision Pro, focusing on whether the new M5 model is a worthwhile upgrade, who it's really for, and whether Vision Pro should be viewed as a finished product, an emerging platform, or a preview of Apple's long-term spatial computing vision. The panel explores developer adoption, enterprise use cases, and why meaningful spatial productivity apps may take years to fully materialize. The conversation then shifts to software, including impressions of the iOS 26.3 beta, particularly changes driven by EU regulations and continued refinements across Apple's platforms. Attention turns to the iPhone 17 lineup, where incremental updates, battery life improvements, camera enhancements, USB-C workflows, and vapor cooling spark debate about whether upgrading is worth it year over year. From there, the panel revisits the ongoing question of whether the iPad can truly replace a laptop, acknowledging its powerful hardware while noting ongoing limitations in iPadOS. The discussion continues with Apple's Mac lineup, highlighting macOS Tahoe as the final release to support Intel Macs and reflecting on how Apple Silicon has reshaped performance, battery life, and upgrade cycles. Security also enters the spotlight with a discussion on a recent malware case that bypassed macOS Gatekeeper, reinforcing the importance of user awareness despite Apple's protections. The episode wraps with a lighter but thoughtful look at ChatGPT's new year-end summary feature, comparing it to services like Spotify Wrapped and reflecting on how AI tools are becoming increasingly personal in daily workflows. The episode closes with final thoughts on Apple's 2025 trajectory, community engagement, and what lies ahead as the calendar turns toward 2026. Topics and Links As 2025 comes to a close we review what happened this year with Apple and technology. In Touch With Vision Pro this week. Lets review Vision Pro in 2025 M5 version was released and dual knit head band was this a big upgrade? Big Picture At the end of 2025, is Vision Pro a product, a platform, or a preview of what's next? Beta This week iOS 26.3 Beta 1 continues iPhone, iPad year in Review iPhone iPhone in 2025 focused on refinement over reinvention iPhone 17 Camera improvements emphasized computational photography and video USB-C accessories expanded across storage, audio, and capture workflows Battery efficiency improved through optimization rather than capacity Control Center and privacy tools became more powerful and flexible iPad iPad hardware remained ahead of most real-world use cases iPadOS delivered incremental multitasking and external display improvements Ongoing tension between iPad as a laptop replacement vs companion device Overall theme: quieter updates, smarter systems, and platform stability In Touch With Mac this week Apple officially ended the Intel era with macOS Tahoe, locking in Apple Silicon as the future. We saw M5-powered Macs push performance and battery life even further, while the Mac Studio continued to blur the line with the Mac Pro. It marks the end of official support for Intel-based Macs, meaning future macOS versions after Tahoe will be exclusive to Apple Silicon Macs. We've Finally Reached the End of the Road for Intel Macs Macbook releases this year.

Now on Spotify Video! After decades leading AI research at NASA, Google, and Stanford, Peter Norvig has watched artificial intelligence advance at an incredible pace, often without enough consideration for the people it's meant to serve. While the systems grew better at optimizing algorithms, far less focus was placed on fairness, human agency, and real-world impact. That realization led Peter to champion a more human-centered approach to AI. In this final episode of the AI Vault series, Peter breaks down how to design and use AI in ways that elevate human abilities, support better decision-making, and promote fairness across business, education, and leadership. In this episode, Hala and Peter will discuss: (00:00) Introduction (02:28) His Transition From Academia to Corporate (06:05) The Evolution of Google Search Technology (12:59) How Artificial Intelligence Has Changed Over Time (17:53) Human Intelligence vs. AI Capabilities (23:38) What Is Human-Centered AI? (29:42) AI-Powered Learning and Workplace Training (35:47) AI for Entrepreneurs: The New Advantage (39:10) Artificial Intelligence and Income Inequality (41:19) The Risks and Rewards of Artificial Intelligence Peter Norvig is a computer scientist, AI pioneer, and former Director of Research at Google, where he led significant advancements in search and machine learning. He is the co-author of Artificial Intelligence, the leading AI textbook used in more than 1,500 universities worldwide. Today, as a Fellow at Stanford's Human-Centered AI Institute, Peter focuses on building AI systems that are fair, inclusive, and aligned with human values.

If you're in the creative space, you already know this tension: the pressure to create never really shuts off. Content still needs to go out, even when your ideas dry up. So what happens when your mind stalls? How do you get unstuck without forcing it or burning out and still create ideas your audience actually cares about when life is full and inspiration feels miles away? In this episode, I sit down with Cat Shanu to tackle those questions and help you break free from creative ruts. We dig into what really causes creative blocks, how perfectionism quietly kills momentum, and what to do when inspiration feels out of reach. Cat shares her own pause from creating, and I open up about staying consistent as a CEO, father, and host, even during low-energy seasons. Whether you're a content creator, an entrepreneur, or simply trying to build more consistent habits, this episode will help you reconnect with your creative rhythm and move forward with intention.

PNR: This Old Marketing | Content Marketing with Joe Pulizzi and Robert Rose
Joe and Robert kick off their annual predictions episode by grading last year's forecasts using ChatGPT. They revisit what hit, what missed, and why context often ruins otherwise solid predictions. Along the way, they discuss AI's uneven progress, platform power shifts, crypto hype, nostalgia marketing, podcast attrition, and the growing tension between tech optimism and cultural fatigue. The episode closes with fresh predictions spanning marketing, media, sports, and culture. Key Topics and Takeaways 2025 Predictions Reviewed (with AI grading) BlueSky stalls while X stabilizes and improves monetization TikTok avoids a ban and continues to grow despite regulatory pressure AI image tools (including early Sora) underwhelm initially Bitcoin fails to hit $200K despite strong institutional momentum Generative AI stumbles, but without a single catastrophic "AI Chernobyl" Online sports gambling faces increased scrutiny and structural pullbacks Podcast attrition accelerates quietly ("pod fading") Major brands lean hard into nostalgia as a hedge against AI sameness One major political prediction completely misses 2026 Prediction Overview Joe goes deep into the importance of email as an indication of humanity and states that the reply rate will be the key KPI for email moving forward. In addition, he makes big bets on: - Famous creators stopping their channels - Elon Musk's net worth at the end of the year - Apple buying Disney Robert believes that AI strategy will no longer be in vogue, and marketers will stop using it altogether because AI will be integrated into everything. Robert also discusses "the Mamdani effect" and how it will take over the election process. Tune in to the episode to get all the predictions right up to the very last minute.

In this episode of the Power Producers Podcast, host David Carothers sits down with Aaron Puchbauer, a contestant on Season 3 of The Protégé. Aaron's journey to insurance is unique—he spent 15 years as a healthcare executive before a corporate restructuring led him to pivot into the world of risk management. They discuss how Aaron's background as a C-Suite buyer gives him a unique advantage in selling to decision-makers, why he sends meeting agendas in advance, and how he utilizes AI to prep for appointments. If you are a new producer looking to differentiate yourself, or a veteran looking to refine your process, Aaron's "buyer-first" perspective is invaluable. Key Highlights: From Healthcare Executive to Insurance Producer Aaron Puchbauer shares his transition from a 15-year career in hospital administration to becoming an independent insurance agent. He explains how the desire to control his own destiny and provide stability for his family (specifically his son with autism) drove him to an industry where effort equals equity. The Buyer's Perspective: Winning the Meeting Having spent years on the other side of the table fielding pitches from vendors, Aaron knows exactly what decision-makers hate—and what they respect. He details his strategy of sending a proposed agenda well in advance of the meeting, asking the prospect to strike or add items. This simple step establishes respect for the prospect's time and differentiates him from the "show up and throw up" competition. Boots on the Ground: Physical Risk Assessment Aaron and David discuss the necessity of "walking the walk" during a prospect visit. Aaron shares a recent experience inspecting a restaurant where he checked everything from the walk-in coolers to the Ansel system (fire suppression). By physically inspecting the risk, he identified misclassifications and coverage gaps that the incumbent agent missed entirely. Leveraging AI for Sales Preparation Aaron reveals how he uses ChatGPT to prepare for sales calls. By prompting the AI to act as the business owner (e.g., a restaurant owner) and asking it to generate likely objections and questions, he walks into meetings prepared for the specific operational concerns of that industry. The Power of "Walking Away" David emphasizes a lesson that usually takes new producers years to learn: the ability to spot a "fool's errand." They discuss a specific case where a prospect's data was so disjointed (impossible liquor sales vs. gross receipts) that it required a hard conversation about whether the account was even insurable, highlighting the importance of underwriting on the front end.

La inteligencia artificial ha sido el gran hito tecnológico de 2025, un año en el que la revista Time ha reconocido a los arquitectos de la IA como las personas más influyentes. Como ha explicado José Ángel Cuadrado, coordinador digital de COPE, en 'Herrera en COPE', herramientas como ChatGPT ya son utilizadas por 800 millones de personas cada día, mientras que empresas como NVIDIA han disparado su valor bursátil hasta convertirse en una de las compañías más punteras del mundo.Esta revolución tecnológica trae consigo la aparición de nuevas profesiones, como la de orquestador de agentes de IA. Según Cuadrado, se trata de un perfil profesional capaz de controlar varios sistemas de inteligencia artificial para que trabajen de forma autónoma en la consecución de objetivos, dando inicio a lo que se conoce como la era agéntica.Un ejemplo concreto lo ha ofrecido Enrique Polo de Lara, director general de Salesforce en España, quien ha adelantado que en 2026 un agente de IA ...
Click here to sign up for a new platform that helps law firms use subscription billing.To stay up to date with Practi, subscribe to our newsletter at practi.ai/hello.On October 10, 2025, I presented live at MaxLawCon in Nashville on the topic of integrating. Here is the slide deck. Here are the top 5 takeaways:* The Traditional Billable Hour Model Is Becoming Obsolete. AI automation is eliminating a significant portion of billable legal work—up to 75% for firms in the near future. This makes the traditional hourly billing model unsustainable, as tasks that once took hours can now be completed in minutes.* A Massive Latent Legal Market Exists. There is a huge, underserved market for legal services—estimated at $1.3 trillion in the U.S.—comprised of people and businesses who need legal help but are not currently served by lawyers, often due to lack of pricing transparency and affordability.* Subscription Models Offer Predictable Revenue and Better Access. Switching to a subscription-based legal service model provides clients with pricing certainty and allows lawyers to build sustainable practices with predictable revenue, improved client relationships, and better staff retention.* AI Should Be Used Thoughtfully and with the Right Tools. Lawyers should use multiple, purpose-built AI tools (not just general ones like ChatGPT) and always verify AI outputs with source documents. Retrieval-augmented generation and tools that provide citations are especially valuable for legal work.* Ethical and Professional Obligations Favor Efficiency and Transparency. Continuing to bill by the hour without leveraging AI may violate professional conduct rules against wasteful procedures. Embracing AI and subscription models aligns lawyer incentives with client needs and supports access to justice.__________________________Sign up for Paxton, my all-in-one AI legal assistant, helping me with legal research, analysis, drafting, and enhancing existing legal work product.Get Connected with SixFifty, a business and employment legal document automation tool.Sign up for Gavel, an automation platform for law firms.Visit Law Subscribed to subscribe to the weekly newsletter to listen from your web browser.Prefer monthly updates?

An unlock of a bonus episode from earlier this year. Access all of our bonus episodes here. Happy holidays, everyone! -- -- Earlier this year, a spate of news stories told of chatbot users travelling through the looking-glass right into Conspirituality. Paranoid conspiracies, spiritual awakenings, even falling head-over-heels in love with the simulated personalities of large language models like ChatGPT. Could AI have finally crossed the threshold into autonomous sentient consciousness? Could it be that chatbots were anointing new prophets—or, conversely, that very special users were awakening their very special friends via the power of love and illuminating dialogue? Step aside, QAnon, the code behind the screen is illuminated by God! Sadly, some of these stories trended very dark. Suicides, attempted murder, paranoid delusions, spouses terrified of losing their partners and co-parents to what looked like spiritual and romantic delusions. For this standalone installment of his Roots of Conspirituality series, Julian examines this strange new phenomenon, then takes a detour into Ancient Greece and the oracle at Delphi to show that everything old is actually new again—just dressed up in digital technology.

Breaking up is hard — and breaking up with your financial advisor after 10+ years? Still hard.In this episode, Tracy shares a deeply personal (and wildly uncomfortable) story about ending a long-standing relationship with her financial advisor — why it stopped feeling right, how she navigated the guilt and fear, and what ultimately helped her reclaim agency over her money.What started as a financial decision quickly revealed powerful parallels to clinical medicine, career decisions, and the ways clinicians stay too long in professional relationships that quietly stop serving them.This episode is about trusting your gut, demanding transparency, and remembering that you get to decide who walks alongside you — in your finances, your career, and your life. In this episode, you'll hear:What finally made Tracy realize her advisor relationship wasn't working anymoreWhy “just trust me” is not education — in medicine or moneyHow using ChatGPT helped remove the emotional labor of writing a hard emailThe striking parallels between financial advising and clinical burnoutWhat good financial advisory support should actually look likeWhy understanding fiduciary responsibility matters more than most people realizeHow reclaiming agency in your finances mirrors reclaiming agency in your careerKey takeaways:You deserve to understand how your advisor is paidTransparency is non-negotiableYour advisor should be a teacher and partnerYour intuition is data — listen to itYou are allowed to outgrow long-standing relationshipsAlignment matters more than familiaritySPONSORS:ADVANCED PRACTICE PLANNING, LLC: advancedpracticeplanning.com/fiCM&F INSURANCE www.cmfgroup.com/ThePAIsIn

AI helps you write in seconds. But do you actually check it, or just hit send. In this episode of The Healthier Tech Podcast, we zoom in on the ethical side of everyday AI use. Not from the perspective of Silicon Valley engineers, but from your side of the screen. The side where AI is quietly becoming the middleman between your decisions and someone else's reality. You will hear about: Why ethical AI is not just a developer problem, and how the conversation actually starts the moment you copy and paste an AI generated answer The difference between using AI as a helpful draft tool and treating it like a source of truth How blind trust in AI can turn into misinformation, broken trust, and subtle digital harm without any malicious intent Where things get serious when you use AI around other people, like hiring, feedback, customer messages, or anything that touches a real human life Simple ways to protect privacy when you are tempted to paste long email threads, client details, or personal stories into AI tools How "automation creep" slowly shifts you from cautious user to autopilot, and why that matters for your digital wellbeing and mental load Practical, low friction habits to keep AI aligned with your values, instead of letting convenience quietly take over your judgment This conversation is especially useful if you are: Using tools like ChatGPT or other AI assistants for writing, content, or decision support Trying to balance productivity with digital wellness and mental clarity Curious how to keep your tech habits healthy while still getting the best out of AI Wondering where the line is between smart delegation and outsourcing your ethics to an algorithm If you enjoy this kind of grounded, real world tech talk, subscribe to The Healthier Tech Podcast and stay with us for future episodes.

Technology is reshaping the world at a pace few people, inside or outside the industry, expected. But every so often, you meet someone who has not only witnessed the major waves of technological change, but helped build them. In this conversation, Marcus Fontoura, Technical Fellow and Corporate Vice President at Microsoft, CTO for Azure Core, walks us through the story of AI, what leaders are getting wrong, and how to develop the one thing that will matter more than any model or algorithm: human agency. Marcus has lived through every major inflection point: early search, the rise of cloud computing, and now large-scale AI systems. One of the first things he challenges is the popular narrative that we are heading toward an AI apocalypse, or an AI utopia. Both extremes, he explains, miss the point: "My approach was more like, let me just explain what the technology is and what it does… it's basically a prediction system." Marcus offers a clear explanation of modern AI. He compares today's large models to a system that has: "Read nonstop for fifty thousand years… with near perfect memory." But this doesn't make AI a mastermind. It makes it a stochastic parrot, extraordinarily capable, but not self-directed. He also emphasizes that while AI will automate the mechanical layers of work, it will amplify, not replace, the leaders who know how to think: "If your job is typing in a spreadsheet… then I would feel scared. But if you have the knowledge and experience to really add value, I wouldn't feel scared." His point is: the danger isn't AI. The danger is becoming someone who only performs tasks AI can do. We also cover the uncomfortable but increasingly visible trend: people relying on AI so heavily that they lose their independent critical-thinking muscles. Marcus acknowledges the risk: "That is a little bit concerning… we will see good uses of technology and uses we don't want to happen." He stresses that organizations must raise the bar for juniors, not lower it, and that AI helps experts more than novices: "More experienced folks already know what to expect… junior employees may not know what is correct or incorrect." This is one of the most important insights in the entire episode: AI accelerates expertise; it does not create it. On hallucinations, Marcus is exceptionally candid: "The more we use it, the more you have techniques to avoid it… but we have to double-check those things." On leaders fearing displacement: "Use AI in a way that amplifies your skills… automate the mechanical tasks and focus on what only humans can do." And on what truly matters in this moment of technological upheaval: "Technology shouldn't influence us. We should influence what we want to see in our society." And he gave a useful explanation of the names of ChatGPT models: "When you say that bigger AI models, when you move from ChatGPT three to four, four to five, basically these models have more parameters. So this means that you read a lot more, but also you memorize a lot more." This conversation is a reminder that the most important focus should not be AI, it's the leader using AI with judgment, clarity, and agency.
