From the frontlines of OpenAI's Codex and GPT-5 training teams, Bryan and Bill are building the future of AI-powered coding—where agents don't just autocomplete, they architect, refactor, and ship entire features while you sleep. We caught up with them at AI Engineer Conference right after the launch of Codex Max, OpenAI's newest long-running coding agent designed to work for 24+ hours straight, manage its own context, and spawn sub-agents to parallelize work across your entire codebase. We sat down with Bryan and Bill to dig into what it actually takes to train a model that developers trust—why personality, communication, and planning matter as much as raw capability, how Codex is trained with strong opinions about tools (it loves rg over grep, seriously), why the abstraction layer is moving from models to full-stack agents you can plug into VS Code or Zed, how OpenAI partners co-develop tool integrations and discover unexpected model habits (like renaming tools to match Codex's internal training), the rise of applied evals that measure real-world impact instead of academic benchmarks, why multi-turn evals are the next frontier (and Bryan's "job interview eval" idea), how coding agents are breaking out of code into personal automation, terminal workflows, and computer use, and their 2026 vision: coding agents trusted enough to handle the hardest refactors at any company, not just top-tier firms, and general enough to build integrations, organize your desktop, and unlock capabilities you'd never get access to otherwise. We discuss: What Codex Max is: a long-running coding agent that can work 24+ hours, manage its own context window, and spawn sub-agents for parallel work Why the name "Max": maximalist, maximization, speed and endurance—it's simply better and faster for the same problems Training for personality: communication, planning, context gathering, and checking your work as behavioral characteristics, not just capabilities How Codex develops habits like preferring rg over grep, and why renaming tools to match its training (e.g., terminal-style naming) dramatically improves tool-call performance The split between Codex (opinionated, agent-focused, optimized for the Codex harness) and GPT-5 (general, more durable across different tools and modalities) Why the abstraction layer is moving up: from prompting models to plugging in full agents (Codex, GitHub Copilot, Zed) that package the entire stack The rise of sub-agents and agents-using-agents: Codex Max spawning its own instances, handing off context, and parallelizing work across a codebase How OpenAI works with coding partners on the bleeding edge to co-develop tool integrations and discover what the model is actually good at The shift to applied evals: capturing real-world use cases instead of academic benchmarks, and why ~50% of OpenAI employees now use Codex daily Why multi-turn evals are the next frontier: LM-as-a-judge for entire trajectories, Bryan's "job interview eval" concept, and the need for a batch multi-turn eval API How coding agents are breaking out of code: personal automation, organizing desktops, terminal workflows, and "Devin for non-coding" use cases Why Slack is the ultimate UI for work, and how coding agents can become your personal automation layer for email, files, and everything in between The 2026 vision: more computer use, more trust, and coding agents capable enough that any company can access top-tier developer capabilities, not just elite firms — Bryan & Bill (OpenAI Codex Team) http://x.com/bfioca https://x.com/realchillben OpenAI Codex: https://openai.com/index/openai-codex/ Where to find Latent Space X: https://x.com/latentspacepod Substack: https://www.latent.space/ Chapters 00:00:00 Introduction: Latent Space Listeners at AI Engineer Code 00:01:27 Codex Max Launch: Training for Long-Running Coding Agents 00:03:01 Model Personality and Trust: Communication, Planning, and Self-Checking 00:05:20 Codex vs GPT-5: Opinionated Agents vs General Models 00:07:47 Tool Use and Model Habits: The Ripgrep Discovery 00:09:16 Personality Design: Verbosity vs Efficiency in Coding Agents 00:11:56 The Agent Abstraction Layer: Building on Top of Codex 00:14:08 Sub-Agents and Multi-Agent Patterns: The Future of Composition 00:16:11 Trust and Adoption: OpenAI Developers Using Codex Daily 00:17:21 Applied Evals: Real-World Testing vs Academic Benchmarks 00:19:15 Multi-Turn Evals and the Job Interview Pattern 00:21:35 Feature Request: Batch Multi-Turn Eval API 00:22:28 Beyond Code: Personal Automation and Computer Use 00:24:51 Vision-Native Agents and the UI Integration Challenge 00:25:02 2026 Predictions: Trust, Computer Use, and Democratized Excellence

China's efforts to scale up effective investment, with a particular focus on encouraging private sector participation and increasing investment in human capital, will play a key role in boosting domestic demand next year, officials and experts said.政府工作人员和专家表示，中国扩大有效投资的举措，特别是鼓励民营企业参与和增加人力资本投资，将在明年提振内需方面发挥关键作用。The annual Central Economic Work Conference, held earlier this month, emphasized the need to "halt the decline in investment and promote its recovery" amid a complex external environment.本月早些时候召开的年度中央经济工作会议强调，在复杂的外部环境下，必须“遏制投资下滑趋势，促进投资回升”。The government needs to effectively drive investment by making good use of funding sources such as central government budget investments, ultra-long-term special treasury bonds and local government special bonds, Xinhua News Agency quoted an official of the Office of the Central Commission for Financial and Economic Affairs as saying.新华社援引中央财经委员会办公室一位政府工作人员的话称，政府需要有效利用中央财政预算投资、超长期国债和地方政府专项债券等资金来源，有效引导投资。"The government will support private firms' participation in major projects in sectors such as railways and nuclear power, and guide private investment toward new fields such as high-tech industries and the service sector," the official said.该工作人员表示：“政府将支持民营企业参与铁路、核电等领域的大型项目，引导民营资本投向高新技术产业、服务业等新兴领域。”The official added that major projects set for the 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-30) period could be front-loaded where conditions permit.该工作人员补充说道，在条件允许的情况下，原定于第十五个五年计划（2026-2030年）期间实施的重大项目可提前启动。China's fixed-asset investment fell 2.6 percent year-on-year in the first 11 months of the year, according to the National Bureau of Statistics.国家统计局数据显示，今年前11个月，中国固定资产投资同比下降2.6%。China has rolled out a series of targeted policies over the past year, including an 800 billion yuan ($113.8 billion) list of key projects to implement major national strategies and strengthen security capacity in key areas, and 500 billion yuan in new policy-based financial tools to supplement project capital.过去一年，中国推出了一系列定向政策，包括8000亿元（1138亿美元）重点项目清单，以落实重大国家战略、强化重点领域安全保障能力，以及5000亿元新增政策性金融工具，用于补充项目资本金。The economic agenda-setting meeting also called for greater investment in physical assets and human capital.经济议程设定会议还呼吁加大对实物资产和人力资本的投资力度。From the country's sprawling highway networks and bullet trains to its forest of urban high-rises, investment in physical assets played a crucial role in its economic growth over the past decades, said Yu Chunhai, executive dean of Renmin University of China's School of Economics.中国人民大学经济学院执行院长于春海指出，从遍布全国的高速公路网络和高铁系统，到城市摩天大楼林立的景象，过去数十年来，实物资产投资在推动中国经济增长方面发挥了关键作用。However, Yu noted that the country'sincremental capital output ratio, which indicates the amount of capital required for every 1 yuan increase in GDP, increased from 2.84 in 2008 to 9.44 in 2023.然而，于春海指出，中国的边际资本产出比（即每增加1元GDP所需投入的资本量）从2008年的2.84上升至2023年的9.44。Meanwhile, facing diminishing returns from the old growth model and a global shift toward talent-centric competition, China is placing a strategic bet on investing in people, analysts said.与此同时，面对传统增长模式回报递减以及全球向人才竞争格局转变的趋势，中国正将战略重心转向人才投资，分析师指出。Investment in human capital refers to inputs that develop people's capabilities and unlock their potential at all stages of life, including childcare, elderly care, health, education and skills training.人力资本投资指在人生各个阶段提升个人能力、释放潜能的投入，包括儿童保育、老年护理、健康保障、教育培养及技能培训。An aging population and rising labor costs are eroding the traditional demographic advantage. By prioritizing investment in human capital, China seeks to build long-term economic competitiveness for innovation-driven, demand-led growth, said Chen Wenling, former chief economist at the China Center for International Economic Exchanges.中国国际经济交流中心前首席经济学家陈文玲指出，老龄化人口和不断上升的劳动力成本正在侵蚀传统的人口红利优势。通过优先投资人力资本，中国致力于构建长期经济竞争力，推动创新驱动、需求引领的增长模式。"A healthier, better-educated and more secure workforce is the most critical infrastructure for the next stage of China's development," Chen said. "Sustained investment in people's capabilities, health and career development doesn't just improve well-being—it directly fuels economic upgrading."陈文玲表示：“更健康、受教育程度更高、更有保障的劳动力队伍，是中国下一阶段发展最关键的基础设施。持续投资于人民的能力、健康和职业发展，不仅能提升福祉，更能直接推动经济升级。”Meanwhile, analysts believe that investing in people could also help unlock the spending power of China's massive population, creating a virtuous cycle in which social investment fuels consumption resilience.与此同时，分析人士认为，投资于人力资本也有助于释放中国庞大人口的消费潜力，从而形成良性循环，社会投资推动消费韧性增强。The enhanced investments in pensions, childcare and healthcare are designed to alleviate theprecautionary savings burdens that constrain household spending, said Luo Zhiheng, chief economist and head of the research institute at Yuekai Securities.粤开证券首席经济学家兼研究院院长罗志恒表示，加大养老、育儿和医疗领域的投资力度，旨在缓解制约家庭支出的预防性储蓄负担。"This approach transforms social spending into a powerful economic driver. A more secure population is likely to spend more freely," Luo said. "The direction aligns with China's broader economic objectives of rebalancing growth toward high-quality domestic demand."罗志恒表示：“这种做法将社会支出转化为强有力的经济驱动力。生活更有保障的人群往往更愿意消费。该方向与中国更广泛的经济目标相契合，即推动经济增长向高质量的内需转型。”incrementaladj./ˌɪŋ.krəˈmen.t̬əl/递增的precautionaryadj./prɪˈkɑː.ʃən.er.i/预防性的
Redfin just called it. The housing market will “reset” in 2026…or at least it'll be the start of it. Chen Zhao, Redfin's head of economics research, has 11 predictions she and her team have formulated for the 2026 housing market. A long, slow period of progress could be upon us, as buyers get what they've been asking for: better affordability, a more normal market, and the chance to own where there's work. But what does this really mean? Will mortgage rates fall? Will home prices drop? We're going through each of the 11 predictions with Chen, discussing prices, rates, rents, refinances, transaction volume, and even how AI could become the “matchmaker” for Americans looking for their first or next property. Make no mistake, this is good news for many, and could be just the start of a cycle that finally puts average Americans in the position to purchase a home. But, for real estate investors and landlords, there could be another big benefit coming in 2026, one that has a direct impact on your cash flow. In This Episode We Cover Redfin's 2026 housing market predictions (prices, mortgage rates, and more!) The great “reset” that is coming for the housing market (it's already begun) Rent growth returns? Struggling landlords could get some relief next year The best and worst real estate markets that Redfin is forecasting for 2026 The AI effect on real estate and why more buyers are using bots to find homes And So Much More!

A topic that many growers consider but few understand is mothballing a vineyard. In this episode, Fritz covers it all with Dr. Christopher Chen, Integrated Vineyard Systems Advisor with the University of California Cooperative Extension. With economic pressures, market shifts, and operational challenges affecting vineyard owners across the industry, temporarily idling a vineyard can feel like a practical option — but it comes with important agronomic, legal, and financial considerations. Dr. Chen brings a research-based, boots-on-the-ground perspective to the conversation, helping listeners understand what "mothballing" actually means in a vineyard context. Rather than a simple shutdown, he explains that mothballing requires intentional planning to preserve vine health, soil integrity, and long-term viability. Real-world questions growers are asking get answered, such as when mothballing makes sense, how long a vineyard can remain idle, and what minimum maintenance is required to avoid costly problems down the line. Dr. Chen also highlights common mistakes growers make when they cut corners too aggressively, and how those decisions can significantly increase restart costs later. Listeners will walk away with a clearer framework for evaluating whether mothballing is the right strategy for their operation, along with guidance on how to do it responsibly if they choose that path. In this episode, you will hear: What "mothballing" a vineyard really involves Situations where mothballing may make economic sense Minimum maintenance practices to protect vine health Risks related to pests, disease, and vineyard infrastructure How mothballing decisions impact future restart costs Follow and Review: If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to follow the podcast and leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts!

There are no so-called "prohibited or restricted waters" in the sea area between Xiamen and Jinmen, an island administered by Taiwan, a spokesperson of the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office said on Saturday.国务院台湾事务办公室发言人周六表示，厦门与台湾当局管辖的金门岛之间的海域不存在所谓的“禁止或限制水域”。Chen Binhua, spokesperson for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, said that Taiwan and the islands of Penghu, Jinmen, and Matsu are parts of China. Waters between Jinmen and Fujian province's Xiamen have long been shared fishing grounds for fishermen from both sides of the Taiwan Strait.国务院台办发言人陈斌华表示，台湾及澎湖、金门、马祖列岛都是中国的一部分。金门与福建厦门之间的海域长期以来一直是海峡两岸渔民的共同渔场。He added that the routine patrols by the Chinese mainland coast guard are crucial for maintaining maritime order and ensuring the safety of fishermen from both sides. He called on the Democratic Progressive Party authorities in Taiwan to acknowledge the historical and factual realities of these shared fishing areas and to stop unjustified detentions and aggressive actions against fishermen from the Chinese mainland.他补充说，中国大陆海警开展的例行巡航执法对于维护海上秩序、保障两岸渔民生命财产安全至关重要。他敦促台湾民进党当局正视相关海域的历史和事实现实，停止对大陆渔民进行无理扣押和挑衅性行为。Chen warned that the DPP authorities would bear full responsibility for any consequences if such actions were to continue.陈斌华警告称，如上述行为继续发生，由此产生的一切后果将由民进党当局承担全部责任。prohibited or restricted waters禁止或限制水域State Council Taiwan Affairs Office国务院台湾事务办公室shared fishing grounds共同渔场routine patrols例行巡航/例行巡逻unjustified detentions无理扣押

In this very special encore presentation, Jimmy Chen, founder/CEO of Propel and Ofek Lavian, founder/CEO of Forage, return to discuss current trends in using technology to ensure more people can access government food benefits. “As of January 27, 2025, at least, our plan is to continue to invest in the things that we have confidence that are not going to change over the 20-, 30-, 40-year time horizon, while we stay nimble and adapt to what might change in the next few weeks or months,” says Chen. “EBT funding is influenced significantly because of macroeconomics, probably to a greater extent than the actual policies of the administration of the White House,” Lavian predicts.

As usual in the final episode of the year, we hand out three awards for what we think are some of the finest pieces of information systems scholarship produced this year. Except that this time, we are live at the International Conference on Information Systems in Nashville, Tennessee, in a room packed with our listeners. While this means the quality of the audio of our recording is not so great, the quality of the papers we honor this year is. And with a room full of laughter celebrating great information systems scholarship, we end the year on a high note. Congratulations to Stefan, Christoph, and Jan for winning the Trailblazing Research Award, John and Prasanna for winning the Elegant Scholarship Award, and Yanzhen, Huaxia and Andrew for winning the Innovative Method Award 2025.

Author, inventor, and entrepreneur Jane Marie Chen has a long list of accomplishments, but when her life's work fell apart, she went into a tailspin of anxiety, self doubt, and failed relationships. But that failure set her on a quest to heal herself, and confront her childhood trauma. On this Line One, host Prentiss Pemberton speaks with Chen about her journey of self-acceptance detailed in her new memoir, Like a Wave we Break.
Episode 115 is a winter roundtable with Corrine Malcolm, Keely Henninger, and Hillary Allen that explores how resilience in endurance sport is built not in isolation, but through people, culture, and environment. We open by checking in on winter training realities across snow, mud, rain, and darkness, and how community helps athletes keep showing up during the hardest part of the year. The episode also covers standout performances from CIM, including a historic day for women chasing the Olympic Trials standard, updates in women's sport science and leadership, and notable moments across trail, road, and skimo. At the heart of the episode is a deep dive into new research by Chen et al. (2024), which challenges the idea that resilience is an innate trait. Instead, the study shows how grateful team climates foster individual gratitude and long-term psychological resilience. Hillary breaks down the science behind coaching environment, gratitude, and burnout prevention, connecting it to real-world trail running experiences. Together, the hosts reflect on where resilience actually comes from, how grit is often confused with adaptation, and what coaches, teammates, and communities can do to create environments where athletes grow braver rather than smaller. The episode closes with Society Slam listener questions and examples of organizations doing it right when it comes to supporting athletes through pregnancy, setbacks, and long-term participation in sport.

Die EU schwächt das sogenannte Verbrenner-Aus wieder ab. Bisher sollten ab 2035 in der EU nur noch Autos neu zugelassen werden, die beim Betrieb kein CO2 mehr ausstoßen. Doch auf Druck der schwächelnden Automobilindustrie, einiger Länder und der konservativen Parteien in der EU wurde das Paket wieder aufgeschnürt. Nun muss das CO2 nur noch um 90 statt um 100 Prozent reduziert werden - verglichen mit dem Jahr 2021. Die verbliebenen zehn Prozent müssen aber ausgeglichen werden. Johannes Roßteuscher aus der BR-Wissensredaktion ordnet im Gespräch mit Moderator Holger Romann die Geschehnisse ein.
Edwin Chen is the founder and CEO of Surge AI, the data infrastructure company behind nearly every major frontier model. Surge works with OpenAI, Anthropic, Meta, and Google, providing the high-quality data and evaluation infrastructure that powers their models. Edwin reveals why optimizing for popular benchmarks like LMArena is "basically optimizing for clickbait," how one frontier lab's models regressed for 6-12 months without anyone knowing, and why the industry's approach to measurement is fundamentally broken. Jacob and Edwin discuss what actually makes elite AI evaluators, why "there's never going to be a one size fits all solution" for AI models, and how frontier labs are taking surprisingly divergent paths to AGI.

A Chinese mainland spokesman on Wednesday condemned Taiwan's Democratic Progressive Party authorities for banning the mainland social media app RedNote, or Xiaohongshu, calling the move "an act against democracy" and driven by self-interest.中国大陆发言人周三谴责台湾民进党当局封禁大陆社交媒体应用“小红书”（RedNote），并称此举是“反民主行为”，受私利驱使。Chen Binhua, spokesman for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, said at a news conference that the DPP authorities' decision deprives people in Taiwan, especially young people, of their right to information and their freedom to use social media platforms.国务院台办发言人陈斌华在新闻发布会上表示，民进党当局的决定剥夺了台湾民众，尤其是年轻人的信息权和使用社交媒体平台的自由。The ban, announced on Dec 4, was imposed by Taiwan's "interior affairs department" for a year, citing alleged failures in "multiple cybersecurity indicators" and claims of "frequent fraud".该禁令于12月4日宣布，由台湾“内政部门”以所谓“多个网络安全指标不达标”和“频繁涉诈”为由，实施为期一年的封禁。Chen argued that RedNote allows people in Taiwan, especially young users, to learn about the mainland's real situation and interact positively with mainland netizens. This, he added, breaks through the "information cocoons" and long-standing slander about the mainland that the DPP authorities have deliberately cultivated.陈斌华指出，小红书让台湾民众，特别是年轻用户能够了解大陆真实情况，并与大陆网友积极互动，有助于打破民进党当局刻意营造的“信息茧房”和长期对大陆的抹黑叙事。"The DPP authorities claim they are 'combating fraud', but in reality they are acting 'against democracy'," he said, adding that the ban exposes their "inner fear and unease".他表示：“民进党当局声称在‘打击诈骗'，但实际上是在‘反民主'。”此举暴露了他们“内心的恐惧与不安”。Chen denounced the ban as a reckless action that tramples on democracy and restricts freedom. "It has also severely affected the livelihoods of those in Taiwan who rely on RedNote for income," he added.陈斌华谴责该禁令是践踏民主、限制自由的鲁莽行为，并补充说：“这也严重影响了依赖小红书谋生的台湾民众的生计。”According to reports, RedNote has more than 3 million users in Taiwan, 70 percent of whom were born after 1990. Following the announcement of the ban, downloads of the app surged, pushing RedNote to the top of Taiwan's social app download rankings on Sunday. The app is still available on both Google Play Store and Apple App Store, but it can only be used through a VPN.据报道，小红书在台湾拥有超过300万用户，其中70%为“90后”。禁令宣布后，应用下载量激增，使其在周日登上台湾社交类应用下载榜首。尽管小红书仍可在Google Play和苹果App Store下载，但只能通过VPN使用。Chen pointed to media reports showing that Facebook was involved in nearly 60,000 fraud cases last year and has already exceeded 30,000 cases this year, far more than the number attributed to RedNote by the DPP authorities.陈斌华引用媒体报道指出，Facebook去年涉诈近6万起，今年已超3万起，远高于民进党当局归因于小红书的数字。He further criticized the DPP authorities for opposing anything that Taiwan residents use and blocking anything popular among young people, from mainland-based shopping platforms and video sites to social media, saying the DPP has effectively become the "party of restricting people".他进一步批评民进党当局对台湾民众所用之物皆反对，对年轻人喜爱的热门应用皆加以封堵——从大陆购物平台、视频网站到社交媒体，称其事实上已成“限制人民的政党”。The ban has drawn widespread criticism across the island. Cheng Li-wun, chairwoman of the Chinese Kuomintang party, said the DPP's ban on RedNote is merely the first step toward building a "great firewall" under the guise of fighting fraud.该禁令在岛内引发广泛批评。中国国民党主席郑丽文表示，民进党以打诈为名封禁小红书，只是构建“防火长城”的第一步。She noted that the DPP authorities cannot tolerate the fact that on RedNote, users of different backgrounds can freely and amicably discuss topics ranging from beauty and fashion to everyday life.她指出，民进党当局无法容忍不同背景的用户在小红书上自由、友善地交流，从美妆、时尚到日常生活的各类话题。"The DPP authorities will inevitably face the consequences of their reckless actions," Chen said, adding that such regressive measures cannot stop the growing trend of people in Taiwan, especially young people, seeking to learn about and connect with their compatriots on the mainland.陈斌华表示：“民进党当局必将为其鲁莽行为承担后果。”他强调，这类倒退举措无法阻挡台湾民众，尤其是年轻人了解大陆、与大陆同胞交流的趋势。Condemn/kənˈdem/谴责self-interest/'self'intərist/私利information cocoon信息茧房regressive measures倒退举措
The Democratic Progressive Party authorities have banned the mainland social media app RedNote, or Xiaohongshu, out of self-interest, depriving the people of Taiwan of their right to information and to freely use social media platforms, a Chinese mainland spokesman said on Wednesday.中国大陆发言人周三表示，民进党当局出于私利，禁止大陆社交媒体使用小红书，剥夺了台湾民众获取信息和自由使用社交媒体平台的权利。Responding to the DPP authorities' recent decision to ban RedNote, Chen Binhua, spokesman for the State Council Taiwan Affairs Office, said at a news conference that although the DPP claims the move is aimed at "combating fraud", it is in fact "an act against democracy".针对民进党当局近期决定禁止小红书，国务院台湾事务办公室发言人陈斌华在记者会上表示，尽管民进党声称此举旨在“打击欺诈”，但实际上却是“反民主行为”。Chen said that through RedNote, people in Taiwan, especially young users, learn about the mainland's real situation and engage positively with mainland netizens. This, he noted, breaks through the "information cocoons" and long-standing slander against the mainland that the DPP authorities have deliberately fostered.陈斌华表示，通过小红书平台，台湾民众特别是年轻用户能够了解大陆真实情况，并与大陆网民积极互动。他指出，这有效打破了民进党当局刻意营造的“信息茧房”以及长期以来对大陆的污蔑。On Dec 4, the DPP authorities imposed a one-year ban on RedNote, which has more than 3 million users in Taiwan, 70 percent of whom were born in the 1990s. The authorities cited reasons such as "failing multiple cybersecurity indicators" and "frequent fraud".12月4日，台湾当局对拥有逾300万用户的社交平台小红书实施为期一年的禁令，其中70%用户为90后。当局以“多项网络安全指标不合格”以及“频繁发生诈骗行为”等理由作出禁令。Chen condemned the ban as a reckless act that tramples on democracy, restricts freedom, and deprives the people of Taiwan, especially young people, of their right to information and to access social media platforms freely. "It has also seriously affected the livelihoods of those in Taiwan who depend on RedNote for income," he added.陈斌华谴责这项禁令是践踏民主、限制自由的鲁莽行径，剥夺了台湾民众——尤其是年轻一代——获取信息和自由使用社交媒体平台的权利。他补充道：“此举还严重影响了台湾地区依赖小红书平台谋生的从业者的生计。”Citing media reports, Chen pointed out that Facebook was involved in nearly 60,000 fraud cases last year and has already surpassed 30,000 cases this year, far exceeding the number of incidents attributed to RedNote by the DPP authorities.陈斌华援引媒体报道指出，脸书去年涉及近六万宗诈骗案件，今年迄今已突破三万宗，远超民进党当局归咎于小红书的案件数量。Chen criticized the DPP authorities for opposing anything used by the people of Taiwan and blocking anything popular among young people—from shopping platforms and video sites to social media platforms from the mainland—saying the DPP has effectively become the "party of restricting people".陈斌华批评民进党当局反对台湾民众使用的任何事物，阻挠年轻人喜爱的任何平台——从购物平台、视频网站到大陆社交媒体平台——称民进党已实质上成为“限制人民的政党”。"The DPP authorities will inevitably face the consequences of their reckless actions," Chen said, adding that such regressive measures cannot halt the growing trend of people in Taiwan, especially young people, seeking to learn about and connect with their compatriots on the mainland.陈斌华表示，民进党当局终将为其鲁莽行径付出代价，并强调此类倒退措施无法阻挡台湾民众——尤其是年轻人——日益增长的了解大陆同胞、与之建立联系的趋势。

Redfin just called it. The housing market will “reset” in 2026…or at least it'll be the start of it. Chen Zhao, head of economics research and a returning guest on the show, has 11 predictions she and her team have formulated for the 2026 housing market. A long, slow period of progress could be upon us, as buyers get what they've been asking for: better affordability, a more normal market, and the chance to own where there's work. But what does this really mean? Will mortgage rates fall? Will home prices drop? We're going through each of the 11 predictions with Chen, discussing prices, rates, rents, refinances, transaction volume, and even how AI could become the “matchmaker” for Americans looking for their first or next property. Make no mistake, this is good news for many, and could be just the start of a cycle that finally puts average Americans in the position to purchase a home.

Today's episode is about something most of us long for: feeling healthy in our bodies and calm in our minds – not by pushing harder, but by letting the body restore itself. Our guest today is LD Chen, an entrepreneur-turned-author who discovered the ancient wisdom that healing doesn't come from trying harder, but from restoring the body's natural intelligence. LD believes everyone has the right to live peacefully and free from constant stress and anxiety – to move through life with genuine joy, peace, and appreciation. After quickly building a 1,000-person company and then facing burnout and serious health issues, LD's life changed when he encountered an ancient standing practice called Oneness. He is now the Head Coach of the Oneness Institute for America and Europe, and author of the Amazon bestseller Oneness: The Self-Healing Secret You Were Never Supposed to Know.“Oneness is actually not about learning in the usual way. Most teachings tell you how to learn – how to let go, how to calm down, how to manage anger. Oneness does the opposite: we stand, we train the body to correct the heart, and then we live from that heart.”Episode WebsiteOneness Weekly newsletterTEDx; How AI is changing us- And what means to be humanwww.creativeprocess.info/podInstagram:@creativeprocesspodcast

In this episode of VC Talks, we sit down with Timothy Chen, Founder of Essence VC, to unpack his core perspectives on investing in AI startups—and why, despite rapid advances in models and tools, the founder matters more than ever at the earliest stage. Drawing from his frontline experience in early-stage venture capital, Timothy reflects on the structural shifts in the AI investment landscape before and after 2022. As foundation models and cloud infrastructure become increasingly commoditized, where does true differentiation come from? He also speaks candidly about which layers of today's AI value chain are likely to capture lasting value, and the seemingly compelling narratives that may look impressive on the surface but, in reality, lack defensible technical moats—clear red flags he watches for when evaluating young teams. The conversation also looks ahead to a disruption the venture world is just beginning to confront: when AI agents can already run diligence, analyze markets, and even take part in negotiations, how does the role of a venture capitalist evolve? Timothy shares his rethinking of where enduring VC value will lie, offering a key insight—while AI can dramatically amplify efficiency, it cannot replace human judgment or the ability to build long-term trust. If you're thinking about how to become a more effective early-stage investor in the AI era, or want to understand how top VCs quickly identify the people and teams truly worth backing for the long run, this episode offers a compelling, first-hand perspective. 在這一集 VC Talks 中，我們邀請到 Essence VC 創辦人 Timothy Chen，深入解析他在投資 AI 新創時的關鍵判斷視角，以及為什麼相較於AI模型與工具，「創辦人」的因素，卻反而比以往任何時候都更為關鍵。 Timothy 從早期創投的第一線觀察出發，回顧 2022 年前後 AI 投資生態的結構性轉變：當基礎模型與雲端資源逐漸商品化，真正的差異化該如何被定義？節目中，他也坦率談到，在今日的 AI 產業鏈中，價值究竟會沉澱在哪一層，以及哪些看似華麗、實際上可能缺乏技術護城河的行銷語言，是他在評估早期團隊時最重視的警訊。 另外，我們也試著思考未來創投圈即將面對的衝擊：當 AI agents 已能執行盡職調查、分析市場，甚至參與談判後，創投的角色究竟又會如何演變？ Timothy 分享他對未來創投專業價值所在的重新想像，也拋出一個關鍵觀點——雖然AI技術可以放大效率，但無法取代人類的判斷與建立長期信任的能力。 如果你正在思考如何在 AI 世代成為極具影響力的早期投資者，或想理解早期創投如何快速辨識，甚麼是「值得長期下注的人與團隊」，這一集將提供極具啟發性的第一手視角。
Edwin Chen is the founder and CEO of Surge AI, the company that teaches AI what's good vs. what's bad, powering frontier labs with elite data, environments, and evaluations. Surge surpassed $1 billion in revenue with under 100 employees last year, completely bootstrapped—the fastest company in history to reach this milestone. Before founding Surge, Edwin was a research scientist at Google, Facebook, and Twitter and studied mathematics, computer science, and linguistics at MIT.We discuss:1. How Surge reached over $1 billion in revenue with fewer than 100 people by obsessing over quality2. The story behind how Claude Code got so good at coding and writing3. The problems with AI benchmarks and why they're pushing AI in the wrong direction4. How RL environments are the next frontier in AI training5. Why Edwin believes we're still a decade away from AGI6. Why taste and human judgment shape which AI models become industry leaders7. His contrarian approach to company building that rejects Silicon Valley's “pivot and blitzscale” playbook8.

Siyun Chen, associate professor at Sun Yat-sen University, discusses her research showing masculine brands perform better with simple ad designs while feminine brands achieve better results with complex designs. The conversation covers how visual complexity is determined by element count, detail level, and arrangement irregularity, why the effect works through subconscious conceptual fluency, and how brand gender can be manipulated through names, colors, and visual elements. Chen explains the role of holistic versus analytical thinking styles, why following design trends without considering brand fit is the biggest mistake practitioners make, and practical guidelines for determining appropriate complexity levels.

Send us a textIn this solo episode, Kara explores the fascinating research behind how daily reading may support a longer, healthier life. She breaks down the landmark Yale study showing that people who read books for just 30 minutes a day lived an average of 23 months longer than non-readers, examines why book-length reading provides unique cognitive benefits, and discusses what current science says about print books versus audiobooks.Listeners will walk away with a deeper understanding of how reading strengthens the brain, builds cognitive reserve, and may contribute to healthy aging - plus practical ideas for fitting more reading into everyday life.Episode Highlights:• Reading books for just 30 minutes a day was linked to 23 extra months of life, on average.• Frequent reading is associated with reduced cognitive decline across multiple long-term studies.• Print or visual reading tends to support stronger comprehension and memory - key components of brain reserve.• Audiobooks activate many of the same language and emotional brain networks, though the depth of processing may differ.• Regardless of format, regular engagement with stories supports cognitive health.Resources Mentioned:Episode 116: Do Audiobooks Count as Reading?Bavishi, Slade & Levy (2016).

In this solo episode, Darin explores a radical idea backed by ancient wisdom and modern neuroscience: that awe — a single embodied moment of wonder — may be the fastest biological doorway to expanding consciousness. Drawing on cutting-edge research, timeless spiritual traditions, and personal stories, Darin reveals how awe reduces inflammation, rewires the brain, quiets the ego, boosts vagal tone, expands time perception, and reconnects us to meaning in a world drowning in distraction.
