Three Buddy Problem - Episode 70: Dave Aitel from OpenAI's technical staff joins the buddies to discuss the just-launched Aardvark, OpenAI's agentic “security researcher” that claims to read code, finds bugs, validates exploits, and ships patches. We press him on where LLMs beat fuzzers, privacy boundaries, human-in-the-loop realities, SDLC budgets, pen-test cadence, and the zero-day economy. Plus, L3 Harris/Trenchant exec pleads guilty to selling exploits to Russian brokers, Kaspersky catches the return of HackingTeam using Chrome zero-day exploit chain, and news of a proposed law in Russia to force researchers to report vulnerabilities first to goverment agencies. Cast: Dave Aitel (https://www.linkedin.com/in/daveaitel/) (Technical Staff, OpenAI), Juan Andres Guerrero-Saade (https://twitter.com/juanandres_gs), Ryan Naraine (https://twitter.com/ryanaraine) and Costin Raiu (https://twitter.com/craiu).

This is Sarah Jeong, features editor at The Verge. I'm standing in for Nilay for one final Thursday episode here as he settles back into full-time hosting duties. Today, we've got a fun one. I'm talking to Cory Doctorow, prolific author, internet activist, and arguably one of the fiercest tech critics writing today. He has a new book out called Enshittifcation: Why Everything Suddenly Got Worse and What to Do About It. So I sat down with Cory to discuss what enshittification is, why it's happening, and how we might fight it.  Links:  Enshittification | Macmillan Why every website you used to love is getting worse | Vox The age of Enshittification | The New Yorker Yes, everything online sucks now — but it doesn't have to | Ars Technica The enshittification of garage-door openers reveals vast, deadly rot | Cory Doctorow Mark Zuckerberg emails outline plan to neutralize competitors | The Verge Google gets to keep Chrome, judge rules in antitrust case | The Verge How Amazon wins: by steamrolling rivals and partners | WSJ A new web DRM standard has security researchers worried | The Verge Netflix, Microsoft & Google just changed how the web works | The Outline Subscribe to The Verge⁠ to access the ad-free version of Decoder!

After spending the last few weeks listening to Q3 earnings calls and product launches from the Magnificent 7 and their orbit, I think it's safe to say:We're approaching a fundamental shift where AI doesn't just scale operations—it enables radical personalization at scale. And this tension between “more” and “customized” will reshape how we communicate, campaign, and connect.Hi, are you new to Anchor Change? I'm Katie Harbath. Most people listen for the numbers. I listen for where product and policy are heading. And today's piece is a good example of the kinds of work I share in my newsletter every week. Subscribe today to get this kind of analysis right in your inbox.After listening to Salesforce's Mark Benioff talk about the future of customer service and Google's Sundar Pichai mention how browsing will change, here are six things that stood out to me—and what they mean for anyone navigating tech, politics, or the messy space between.1. Moving From Pages You Browse to Agents You BriefSalesforce calls it “the end of the do-not-reply era.” Google is reimagining search and Chrome as agentic interfaces. By next year, your customer won't scroll through your website—they'll ask a question, and an AI will answer on your behalf.What that means for you: If your content isn't structured for agents—clear product data, authenticated actions, safety guardrails—you're invisible in that conversation. Start designing for a “briefed” world now.2. The Democratization of Software DevelopmentNearly every company referenced how AI collapses the barrier between “having an idea” and “shipping something.” Andreessen Horowitz drew parallels to early YouTube: suddenly, anyone could create and distribute content without a studio. Now, anyone can build software without hiring developers.The catch: When everyone can create at scale, advantage shifts to orchestration—how seamlessly you connect identity, data, channels, and fulfillment. The magic isn't in making things; it's in making things work together reliably.3. Scale AND Personalization (Not Scale OR Personalization)After listening to these calls, this is the juxtaposition that intrigues me most. AI is enabling companies to reach a wider audience while simultaneously tailoring every interaction.* YouTube/Google is helping creators make episodic content shoppable—shortening the journey from “I'm interested” to “I bought it.”* Meta is optimizing ad delivery end-to-end, so advertisers just state their objective and the AI handles the rest.* Netflix's K-pop demon hunters became a surprise hit, showing studios need to move faster on merchandising cultural moments.For campaigns and advocacy: 2026 and 2028 will be the first elections where agentic stacks let you contact, persuade, and service constituents at unprecedented scale—but in messages that feel like they were written for each person. The transparency challenge here is huge.4. The Human Layer Isn't Going Away—It's ExpandingWhile it's popular to say that ”AI replaces people,” leaders kept describing AI as expanding what humans can handle:* Salesforce and Meta both argued you can finally answer every customer service inquiry—which means hiring more humans alongside automation, not fewer.* Sales changes too: AI lets your team pitch to more prospects and close faster. Same humans, exponentially more reach.The advantage isn't zero-human; it's right-human. To me, this means you put your best people where judgment, nuance, and relationships truly matter. Use agents to amplify their impact.5. Three Infrastructure Realities Shaping StrategyAcross every call and launch, no one could escape these these three elements that are impacting their next steps:* No One Has Enough Compute. Capacity planning is now a C-suite conversation. Every roadmap is gated by compute availability.* Energy Is Policy. OpenAI's framing was direct: building AI infrastructure requires a surge in skilled trades and electricity. “Unlocking electrons” is both an economic opportunity and a bottleneck—one that regulators will shape.* DC Proximity Is Now an Advantage. The industry that once prized distance from Washington is planting offices there. NVIDIA staged events in DC. Anthropic is opening an office. Policy fluency isn't optional anymore.Your move: Lock long-lead capacity early. Build relationships with policymakers before you need them. Align your safety and transparency practices with where regulation is heading, not where it is today.6. Platform Competition: The Creator Scramble Is Back* Substack is scaling fast, which means more content and harder discovery—echoing the early-2010s battle for creator loyalty that Facebook, Twitter and YouTube went through.* Meta frames a “third era” of social: friends (Era 1), creators (Era 2), and now a third era where AI-remixes change what gets made and how it spreads.* Google is pushing analytics and monetization tools to keep creators inside YouTube's ecosystem.What's happening: Platforms are competing for catalogs, not just users. More content means more moderation complexity. Global scale will stress those choices in ways we haven't seen yet.What This Means for Leaders in 2026* Design for agents, not just browsers. Your information architecture needs to answer questions, not just display pages.* Personalization is becoming table stakes. People will expect customized experiences. On the flip side, you'll need radical transparency about what you're saying to whom and how you'll be held accountable.* Invest where trust is created. The competitive edge isn't automation—it's knowing where to put your humans so they create relationships that matter.* Policy and capacity are product decisions now. You can't build a roadmap without thinking about compute, energy, and regulatory alignment.The Bigger QuestionWe're very close to witnessing a fundamental shift in how we interact with browsers, brands, and one another. Personalization at this level will change how we present information, the companies we work with to deliver it, and the necessary level of transparency about what we're doing.The companies getting this right won't be the ones who scale fastest or personalize best—they'll be the ones who figure out how to do both while earning trust along the way.What trend catches your eye the most and why? Tell me in the comments.Go DeeperIf you want to watch these events or read things yourself, here's all that I looked at:* Anthropic: Axios AI Keynote* Google: Q3 Earnings, New TV Features on YouTube and Alex Heath scoop on YouTube AI Re-Org and Layoffs* Meta: Q3 Earnings* Microsoft: Fiscal Year 2026 Q1 Earnings* Netflix: Q3 Earnings* NVIDIA: GTC Keynote* OpenAI: Dev Day Sam Altman Keynote* Salesforce: Dreamforce Investor and Analyst Session, Marketing Force and Conversation with David Sacks* Substack: Anchor Change with Katie Harbath is a reader-supported publication.

Two tired dads with graying hair accidentally stumble into a killer AI workflow. In this Halloween-season hang, Drew Brucker and Rory Flynn trade Midjourney Office Hours intel (V8, maybe no 7.1), go deep on the Style Explorer/Style Finder with token-level searches, then build a rapid prompt-testing pipeline across Weavy + multiple image models. Somewhere between Scream and Sandstorm, they also unpack Freepik's new “aggregator” lane and Higgsfield's Popcorn storyboard—then end by stealing prompts (on purpose) with a Chrome trick.If you're asking “How do I actually use Midjourney's Style Explorer to find usable looks?” or “What's a fast way to test a single prompt across lots of models?”—this one answers both, with receipts.What you'll learn- Midjourney V8 expectations, edit models, multi-image refs, UI shift (less typing, more visual control)- Token-based Style Explorer searches- Practical permutations (exp, Chaos 5–7), when Draft Mode helps (and when it doesn't)- Weavy “fan-out” testing: run one prompt through Re-Render/Ideogram/Flux/Mystic/Imagen/Luma/etc.- Freepik as a real workflow hub (collections, templates, brand swaps)- Higgsfield Popcorn: storyboard → video; plus the Chrome “Recreate” move to harvest solid prompt structure#midjourney #midjourneyv8 #midjourneystyleexplorer #stylefinder#aiart #aivideo #aiworkflow #weavy #freepik #higgsfield #promptengineering #aiimagegeneration #generativeai #texttoimage#midjourneytips---⏱️ Midjourney Fast Hour[00:00] Cold open, Halloween vibes, aging gracefully (or not)[02:32] Scream, Stranger Things, Blade nostalgia[06:19] Kids' costumes, seasonal prompting (moody fall looks)[07:43] Midjourney Office Hours recap: V8 hype, maybe skipping 7.1[09:14] Draft Mode real talk; permutations (exp, chaos) habits[11:38] “Try style” quirks and SRF stacking behavior[14:04] Deep dive: Style Explorer (search by tokens, textures, cameras)[18:00] Token combos for discovery [20:46] Treating styles as presets; niche searches [25:04] “This is my new obsession” → why the search now lands[28:15] Style Creator talk and the coming no-words UI paradigm[31:22] New UI learning curve; what should get simplified or cut[32:10] “Pan/Zoom” redundancy; grid-UI vs chat-UI debate[35:22] Option overload vs micro-tools; how people really adopt features[36:28] Editing & creative features pipeline, edit models, multi-image refs[41:31] Weekly release cadence returning; “sailboat”/secret-projects notes[43:19] Market share, comms, and why MJ must show up on more channels[46:46] Freepik: models, workflows, collections, brand-swap use cases[52:26] From icon packs to aggregator; Canva/Krea comparisons[58:00] Genie note; Higgsfield's “rage-bait” marketing, Popcorn storyboard[1:00:04] Camera-move snippets as prompt clauses (easy wins)[1:05:05] Higgsfield Chrome extension → “Recreate” → steal the prompt skeleton[1:10:59] Turn that skeleton into a reusable prompt template[1:12:44] Weavy fan-out: test same prompt across 6–8 generators fast[1:15:45] Comparing results; where each model shines[1:17:28] The nugget for the real ones + sign-off and Halloween tease

The Belgian surrealist René Magritte was a smart artist, but could the 20th century futurist really have predicted the end of the Worldwide Web age? Not exactly, of course. But according to That Was The Week publisher, Keith Teare, Magritte's 1929 painting, “The Treachery of Images” (featuring the image of a pipe with the immortal words “Ceci n'est pas une pipe”), is a helpful way of thinking about OpenAI's introduction this week of their new Atlas “browser”. It's not really a browser in the conventional way that we think about web browsers like Chrome, Firefox or Internet Explorer. And yet AI products like Atlas are about to once again revolutionize how we use the internet. They might even represent the end of the web age with its link architecture and advertising economics. So do we have words for what comes next? The not-a-browser age, perhaps. L'ère sans navigateur, to be exact. * The Browser Is Becoming an Agent, Not a Link Map - For thirty years, browsers like Netscape, Internet Explorer, and Chrome were rendering engines for HTML that displayed blue links to web pages. AI products like ChatGPT's Atlas and Google's AI mode in Chrome are transforming browsers into conversational agents that answer questions, summarize content, and even execute tasks like booking flights—pushing the traditional web “down a level” in the user interface hierarchy.* The Web's Trillion-Dollar Advertising Model Must “Reprice Fast” - The web's business model has been largely advertising-based, built on users clicking links that generate revenue. As AI interfaces replace link-based browsing, this nearly trillion-dollar annual revenue stream faces an existential threat. Publishers like Keith Teare and platforms like Google must figure out how to transition their economics to an AI-driven world where links aren't surfaced by default.* Google Deserves Its Stock Price for “Being Brave in Undermining Its Own Business Model” - While AI threatens to upend Google's AdWords cash cow, the company's stock has surged roughly 50% over the past year. Keith argues Google has earned this bullishness by aggressively investing in AI infrastructure (like Anthropic's $10 billion commitment to Google's TPUs) and integrating AI features into Chrome—even though these moves could cannibalize its core search advertising business.* The “Victim Here Is the Publisher, Not the User” - Keith acknowledges that while the shift to AI agents feels like “an absolute change of paradigm,” it's genuinely better for users who get more intuitive, conversational interfaces. Publishers and content creators are the ones facing disruption, as AI may eliminate their distribution channels without yet providing alternatives for reaching audiences or monetizing content. The challenge is that “most of the narrative that doesn't like it is publisher-centric.”* Tim Wu and Antitrust Regulators Are “Fighting Yesterday's War” - Columbia law professor Tim Wu's new book The Age of Extraction focuses on the monopolistic dangers of Google, Amazon, and Facebook—but Keith argues this framing is already obsolete. The real competitive battlefield is AI, where Google is a “laggard” behind OpenAI and Anthropic. The underlying internet architecture (TCP/IP) remains neutral enough to allow challengers to emerge, making heavy-handed government intervention both unnecessary and potentially innovation-killing, as seen in the over-regulated EU.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

This week's episode opens with a layoffs avalanche that could bury a small HR department. Nestlé slashes 16,000 jobs—mostly white-collar, as AI now crunches numbers faster than accountants can say “chocolate river.” Meta cuts 600 from its super-intelligence team (the irony writes itself), Paycom drops 500 engineers (guess the bots finally learned to code), Handshake axes over 100 (pivoting to “AI-centric tech” = fancy talk for “we're toast”), and even programmatic darling Appcast trims 32. The hot acquisition pitch? JobGet should buy Handshake and rebrand it Handjob.com—because nothing screams “career move” like a domain that triggers every corporate filter. The bullshit meter detonates. Facebook resurrects its job board after killing it in 2023—rumor has it Zuck's prepping AR glasses where “Starbucks is hiring” beams directly into your latte-fueled daydreams. X quietly buries its LinkedIn-killer tab (Elon's too busy monetizing outrage). Adzuna unveils a “revolutionary” search that's basically ZipRecruiter's Phil minus the creepy spokesperson—half-baked, no employer-side matching, and it begs for your email like a desperate Tinder bio. Metaview's Chicago billboard (“Who says hiring has to be fair?”) gets flayed: four-second glance, logo smaller than a South Park punchline, and DEI messaging dumber than a rock. Fix? “Effective AI. Giant Logo. Metaview.com.” Done. Stop torching $35M on ego art. Funding fireworks: Findem.ai pockets another $51M, hitting $105M total (Intello 2.0, now with agent spice—same data warehouse, new flavor packet). Deel raises $300M, pushing its war chest to $1.3B at a $17.3B valuation—enough to buy a mid-sized nation and still tip the barista. Armstrong grabs $12M for AI dish-washing robots (Taco Bell's drive-thru is about to ghost human order-takers faster than you can say “Doritos Locos”). Jack & Jill scores $20M for conversational job alerts—talk to your laptop, get emailed Indeed links. Groundbreaking… if it's 2001. Economy's a K-shaped tire fire: Hamburger Helper sales spike 14% (flashbacks to salty 70s trauma: “Dad tried to fix it with more salt—burned my mouth and my will to live”). Freight rates up 20%, subprime auto delinquencies worse than COVID, Great Recession, and dot-com bust combined. White Castle flips fully autonomous in Ohio—farewell, drive-thru jobs; hello, robot flipping your sliders while you doom-scroll in sweatpants. Finale: OpenAI green-lights erotic ChatGPT for verified adults starting December (the internet was literally built on the promise of pixelated nipples—Sam Altman's just cashing the OG check). Age-gating? Cute. Show me a 10-ft wall, I'll show you an 11-ft ladder and a forged ID. They also launch ChatGPT Atlas, an AI browser with a sassy sidebar—because Chrome's 2:38 median tab time and 11.4 open tabs (recruiters: double that, easy) needed a drunk-texting career coach. Google infused Gemini; OpenAI counters by making browsing feel like your browser just joined a group chat.Buckle up—2026 will be wilder than a Meta glasses app that undresses your LinkedIn connections in AR.

Growing up as a pastor’s kid in Missouri, Lare struggled with feelings of rejection and same-sex attraction from an early age. Though he loved Jesus deeply, he wrestled for years to reconcile his faith with his desires — until he discovered his true identity in Christ. Through grace, perseverance, and obedience, Lare chose to trust God’s design, ultimately finding freedom, peace, and purpose in his walk with Christ. Today, Lare is married to his wife Amy and is the father of four children. His story is a testament to God’s faithfulness, showing that no struggle is beyond His redemption. In this honest and heartfelt conversation, Lare and Becket discuss faith, identity, and the power of God to transform lives — a message of hope for anyone seeking truth and wholeness in Jesus.

Ever wondered how source maps actually work? In this episode, Nicolo Ribaudo, Babel maintainer and TC39 delegate, breaks down how source maps connect your JavaScript, TypeScript, and CSS back to the original code — making debugging, stack traces, and observability smoother in Chrome dev tools. We dive into how source maps help in both development and production with minified code, explore tools like Webpack, Rollup, Next.js, and Svelte, and share when you should turn off source maps to avoid confusion.

Angel Tuccy is an award-winning speaker, radio host, TV producer, media specialist. She's the author of 15 bestsellers, and hosts multiple successful online events.  A recent one had 6,000 attendees.  So this girl knows how to throw a party. So I was surprised, when we talked about the first party she tried to throw which didn't go the way she hoped.  What Was the Idea? Angel wanted to create a space where podcasters and potential guests could connect. In 2020, she launched the Need a Guest Facebook community. It took off like wildfire, growing to 10,000 members in just two years.  What Went Wrong? Angel built the community but forgot one very important piece: the email list. Ten thousand people in her group… and not a single email address. No opt-in. No funnel. Nothing. As Angel put it, that number was a big fat goose egg. Cue the collective groan ... and laughter. How did Angel Turn it Around She started by adding a Chrome extension to collect emails as new members joined and sent a personal welcome message. That simple change meant every new connection is automatically added to her CRM, where she can follow up directly. Within two years, the group grew from 10,000 to 40,000 members, and this time she captured emails from every single one. Then came the second pivot. With the help of copywriter Jamie Atkinson, Angel went from sending no emails at all to sending a daily message. The result was immediate. Her audience, who had been waiting to hear from her, started responding. In the first month, six new clients signed on. From there, daily emails turned into conversations, conversations turned into sales calls, and sales calls turned into revenue. Building systems that connected the dots between community, communication, and clients was a game changer.  ABOUT ANGEL Angel Tuccy is an award-winning Speaker, Radio Host, TV Producer, PR Media Specialist, and author of 15 bestsellers. She is known for her exceptional expertise in helping her clients with media exposure. With a track record of personally securing thousands of media interviews for her clients, she also spearheads the online podcast network needaguest.com With over a decade in broadcasting, Angel's accolades include being named “Most Influential Woman of The Year” and winning awards for “Best Morning Talk Show” and “Best Talk Show Team”. Her bestselling book, “Get Discovered”, offers a step-by-step guide to achieving media exposure in under 90 days, drawing from her extensive experience hosting over 2,500 broadcasts and interviewing over 5,000 guests. Known as the Media Matchmaker, Angel's unique approach to media engagement sets her apart in the industry.

This Week on Dopey! Dave opens with a cocaine-barroom parody and rolls into updates: DopeyCon afterglow, Spotify/iTunes comments, LA travel nerves, and sponsor shout-outs. Listener Archie checks in with a salvia-in-underwear saga; another listener writes about rock-salt shrooms and missing the Dead's final Jerry show; “Chip” reports nearly a year sober and reflects on denial. Then Brace Belden (Truenon) sits down in Dave's new DIY studio for a sprawling hang: meetings vs. therapy, analysis and trazodone dreams, the weird science of memory, and a brutally honest tour through sex + drugs (boofing Suboxone film, poppers, Whippets/“galaxy gas,” meth, DMT, Quaaludes, coke dick, Hunter Biden-level decadence). They spar on politics without picking teams (meetings in “Trumpy” rooms, why rhetoric isn't the whole story), react to the Charlie Kirk assassination video, and play a relapse thought experiment (weed→benzos→opiate math vs. “new Research Chemicalss”). They close with Chrome-mags diplomacy drama, a rapid-fire “this or that,” Truenon live show plugs, and Dave's mural/Patreon notes before the end of another edition of that good old Dopey Show!    Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In today's episode, former MTV Real World: Denver cast member Davis Mallory joins Becket Cook to share his powerful testimony of redemption — from coming out as gay on national television to hearing directly from God through supernatural dreams that transformed his heart and life. After 20 years of living as a “gay Christian,” Davis experienced a radical awakening: prophetic encounters, convicting dreams, and a renewed understanding of God’s truth about sin, identity, and freedom in Christ. In this raw and emotional conversation, Becket and Davis unpack childhood wounds, fatherlessness, the deception of hedonism, and the true joy that comes from obedience to Jesus.
