Oriol Vinyals, VP of Research at Google DeepMind and co-lead of the Gemini program, joins Jacob the day after Google I/O to unpack the research underpinning Google's latest announcements and where frontier AI is heading. The conversation moves from world models (why Google has uniquely bet on them as a path to AGI, what the "GPT moment" for video and images would look like, and how they connect to robotics and simulation) to agents (the Spark release, why the system and model need to be optimized jointly, and why scaffolding will eventually be written by models themselves). Oriol gets into the mechanics of memory in models, drawing on his cognitive neuroscience background to argue that file-system-style non-parametric memory is more practical than baking memory into weights at serving scale. He shares his views on the limits of RL today (LLMs are data-limited in a way that game-playing RL never was), why training on narrow domains like math and code generalizes surprisingly well, and what a true "Move 37" moment for science or ML research would look like. Throughout, he reflects on the unique advantages of being inside Google (TPU co-design, end-to-end revenue stability, the merger of Brain and DeepMind), the trade-offs between focus and exploration in research orgs, and why he believes AGI in some meaningful sense may already be here, even if the goalposts keep moving.   (0:00) Intro  (1:36) Why World Models  (4:21) The GPT Moment for Video  (7:51) What Makes Omni a World Model  (10:04) World Models & Robotics  (12:37) Evaluating Physics in AI  (14:51) Consumer Agents & Spark  (18:39) Scaffolding & the Bitter Lesson  (22:06) Memory & Continual Learning  (26:54) Research Bets Inside Big Labs  (32:30) Post-Training RL is Greenfield  (35:57) What Real Intelligence Looks Like  (39:11) RL Generalization  (43:00) Advice for Founders  (46:40) Can AI Truly Innovate?  (49:48) Recursive Self-Improvement  (52:14) Quickfire With your host: @jacobeffron - Managing Director at Redpoint

They are the foundation of wholistic wellness and personal growth. Integrate these habits into your calendar the same way physical training was once built into military life.3. Courageous Connections Asking for help is an act of strength, not weakness. Surrounding yourself with people who elevate your authentic growth is one of the most strategic leadership decisions you will ever make. Be discerning about who you allow into your inner circle and courageous enough to release what no longer aligns.Memorable Quotes"We really have to start showing up from that honest place and being who we say we are all the time.""You can still lead while you are still bleeding. You can still lead while you still need to heal.""The goal for management should always be: I am developing you to replace me.""Abundance comes in every aspect of life when you give from an authentic place."Key Takeaways for LeadersRadical self-honesty is the foundation of trust, impact, and legacyMicro habits compound into transformation when practiced with intentionCourageous connections accelerate authentic growth and purpose-driven leadershipAccountability with grace is the mark of true leadership presenceYour energy is your leadership.

In an era dominated by AI-powered security tools and cloud-native architectures, are traditional Web Application Firewalls still relevant? Join us as we speak with Felipe Zipitria, co-leader of the OWASP Core Rule Set (CRS) project. Felipe has been at the forefront of open-source security, leading the development of one of the world's most widely deployed WAF rule sets, trusted by organizations globally to protect their web applications. Felipe explains why WAFs remain a critical layer in modern defense-in-depth strategies. We'll explore what makes OWASP CRS the go-to choice for security teams, dive into the project's current innovations, and discuss how traditional rule-based security is evolving to work alongside — not against — AI. Segment Resources: github.com/coreruleset/coreruleset coreruleset.org The future of CycloneDX is defined by modularity, API-first design, and deeper contextual insight, enabling transparency that is not just comprehensive, but actionable. At its heart is the Transparency Exchange API, which delivers a normalized, format-agnostic model for sharing SBOMs, attestations, risks, and more across the software supply chain. As genAI transforms every sector of modern business, the security community faces a question: how do we protect systems we can't fully see or understand? In this fireside chat, Aruneesh Salhotra, Project Lead for OWASP AIBOM and Co-Lead of OWASP AI Exchange, discusses two groundbreaking initiatives that are reshaping how organizations approach AI security and supply chain transparency. OWASP AI Exchange has emerged as the go-to single resource for AI security and privacy, providing over 200 pages of practical advice on protecting AI and data-centric systems from threats. Through its official liaison partnership with CEN/CENELEC, the project has contributed 70 pages to ISO/IEC 27090 and 40 pages to the EU AI Act security standard OWASP, achieving OWASP Flagship project status in March 2025. Meanwhile, the OWASP AIBOM Project is establishing a comprehensive framework to provide transparency into how AI models are built, trained, and deployed, extending OWASP's mission of making security visible to the rapidly evolving AI ecosystem. This conversation explores how these complementary initiatives are addressing real-world challenges—from prompt injection and data poisoning to model provenance and supply chain risks—while actively shaping international standards and regulatory frameworks. We'll discuss concrete achievements, lessons learned from global collaboration, and the ambitious roadmap ahead as these projects continue to mature and expand their impact across the AI security landscape.

Felipe has been at the forefront of open-source security, leading the development of one of the world's most widely deployed WAF rule sets, trusted by organizations globally to protect their web applications. Felipe explains why WAFs remain a critical layer in modern defense-in-depth strategies. We'll explore what makes OWASP CRS the go-to choice for security teams, dive into the project's current innovations, and discuss how traditional rule-based security is evolving to work alongside — not against — AI. Segment Resources: github.com/coreruleset/coreruleset coreruleset.org The future of CycloneDX is defined by modularity, API-first design, and deeper contextual insight, enabling transparency that is not just comprehensive, but actionable. At its heart is the Transparency Exchange API, which delivers a normalized, format-agnostic model for sharing SBOMs, attestations, risks, and more across the software supply chain. As genAI transforms every sector of modern business, the security community faces a question: how do we protect systems we can't fully see or understand? In this fireside chat, Aruneesh Salhotra, Project Lead for OWASP AIBOM and Co-Lead of OWASP AI Exchange, discusses two groundbreaking initiatives that are reshaping how organizations approach AI security and supply chain transparency. OWASP AI Exchange has emerged as the go-to single resource for AI security and privacy, providing over 200 pages of practical advice on protecting AI and data-centric systems from threats. Through its official liaison partnership with CEN/CENELEC, the project has contributed 70 pages to ISO/IEC 27090 and 40 pages to the EU AI Act security standard OWASP, achieving OWASP Flagship project status in March 2025. Meanwhile, the OWASP AIBOM Project is establishing a comprehensive framework to provide transparency into how AI models are built, trained, and deployed, extending OWASP's mission of making security visible to the rapidly evolving AI ecosystem. This conversation explores how these complementary initiatives are addressing real-world challenges—from prompt injection and data poisoning to model provenance and supply chain risks—while actively shaping international standards and regulatory frameworks. We'll discuss concrete achievements, lessons learned from global collaboration, and the ambitious roadmap ahead as these projects continue to mature and expand their impact across the AI security landscape.

The global economic and geopolitical order has long been balanced by the United States. Today, however, that traditional stabilizing role is in flux. The drivers of market uncertainty, typically resulting from changes in monetary policy and the economy, are increasingly linked to US politics. Fiscal strain, tariffs, and hyper-partisanship are sources of unpredictability reverberating across markets worldwide. In this context, it was a pleasure to welcome Alex Kazan, Partner and Co-head of the Geopolitical Practice at the Brunswick Group, back to the Alpha Exchange.Our conversation explores just how we got to a point where the US is exporting risk to the rest of the world. Alex argues that this is not solely about Donald Trump but more the result of structural forces that have been building over time. The advent of social media and the technology that maximizes attention by algorithmically parsing individuals into one camp or the other and the twin shocks of the GFC and Pandemic have deepened partisanship and led to an erosion of institutional trust.On the international front, Alex points to the growing willingness of policymakers to weaponize economic tools like tariffs, sanctions, and export controls. This policy volatility, he argues, has redefined how multinational firms think about resilience, supply chains, and risk. In this new environment, economic strategy and foreign policy are fused, and companies must learn to negotiate not just with markets, but with Washington itself. Finally, we turn to the global stage, where U.S.–China relations remain a critical axis of uncertainty. Alex offers a nuanced view: while risks of escalation remain, the very ambition and unpredictability of U.S. policy may also open space for recalibration—a potential “grand bargain” that could stabilize the system.I hope you enjoy this episode of the Alpha Exchange, my conversation with Alex Kazan.

On today's podcast I had the privilege of speaking with Irish actor Diarmuid Noyes, the co-lead of the movie ‘Christy', which has been winning awards in Ireland and abroad and rave reviews from movie critics everywhere. Diarmuid plays the character Shane in the movie brilliantly, as he wrestles with the job of trying to steer his brother Christy on the right path and at the same time, not to derail his own life. Diarmuid talks in detail about the huge preparation that goes into getting a part like this right, the process around the whole movie and the special bond that has grown between the novice actors and the more experienced actors like himself and Emma Willis, who played his wife Stacey in the movie. He has been acting since he was nine years of age, a career shaped in some ways by a  crush on Mary Kate Olsen and personal circumstances, and even now he still finds this crazy profession challenging. Diarmuid is extremely humble, finds praise a difficult thing to accept and for some strange reason he gives himself too hard a time.  Yes Diarmuid, you are a brilliant actor. Enjoy the show... Christy opens in Irish cinemas on the 29th August, and in Britain from the 5th September. The book I referred to at the end of the podcast is called The Surrender Experiment.   Podcast Production by Greg Canty Greg's blog Greg on Twitter  Greg on LinkedIn Email Greg with feedback or suggested guests: greg@fuzion.ie

In this episode of The Dish on Health IT, host Tony Schueth sits down with two of the industry's sharpest minds leading the charge to fix one of health IT's most persistent headaches: digital consent management. Janice Reese, Senior Consultant at Point-of-Care Partners and Program Manager for the FHIR at Scale Taskforce (FAST), and Mohammad Jafari, Co-Lead of FAST's Consent Work, offer an unflinching look at why consent is still so messy—and what it'll take to make it scalable, interoperable, and actually work for patients.The conversation kicks off with a reality check. While the question “Who can access what data and when?” might sound simple, it quickly falls apart in practice. Consent today is often paper-based, fragmented, non-interoperable, and rarely computable. Mohammad explains how even digitized forms—often scanned PDFs—are barely better than paper when it comes to machine-readability and cross-system portability. The burden lands on both sides: patients are stuck filling out redundant forms at every touchpoint, and providers face access barriers that can delay or limit care.But the episode isn't just a critique, it's a roadmap forward. Janice and Mohammad walk listeners through how FAST is approaching consent differently. Rather than focusing on the content of specific consents (like for research or behavioral health), the team is building a foundational infrastructure: a FHIR-based implementation guide that supports core consent operations, like requesting and revoking consent, delegating authority, and syncing consent decisions with digital identity and security frameworks. In other words, FAST is working on the plumbing that everyone else can build on.What sets this work apart is its real-world grounding. The team has prioritized broad stakeholder input through public calls and is actively incorporating lessons from pilot participants. Janice highlights that many organizations don't even know where to start—some have APIs, patient portals, or identity systems in place, but lack a cohesive strategy for managing consent. That's where FAST can help, not just with standards but with education and architectural guidance.The discussion also tackles the elephant in the room: policy fragmentation. With states having vastly different rules—sometimes even conflicting ones within the same region—scaling consent can feel impossible. But rather than trying to standardize policy, FAST is focused on standardizing structure. That means creating frameworks flexible enough to accommodate policy differences without hardcoding for each new rule change. Mohammad notes this kind of flexibility is key to making systems resilient and future-proof.Both guests agree that the time to act is now. Technology has matured, regulators are engaged, and public expectations for privacy and control over personal data are higher than ever. As Janice puts it, the stars are aligning. With CMS showing growing interest in digital identity and consent, and with FAST's security IG set to be required for FHIR under TEFCA in 2026, organizations can't afford to sit this one out.Whether you're a health plan, HIE, health tech vendor, or public health department, this episode makes one thing clear: scalable, patient-centered consent management isn't just possible—it's already underway. And FAST is laying the groundwork.To get involved, attend a public call (2nd & 4th Fridays at 1:00 Central/2:00 Eastern), reach out to Janice directly at janice.reese@pocp.com, or contact the team at fast@hl7.org. Now's the time to shape the future of consent—before it shapes you.

Our next guest, Ajay Gupta, brings nearly three decades of cybersecurity and IT expertise to healthcare transformation as co-founder and CEO of HSR.health. After identifying critical gaps in healthcare analytics, Ajay built an innovative geospatial platform that predicts health risks based on social and environmental determinants of health.From supporting WHO's COVID-19 response across multiple continents to helping communities prepare for natural disasters before they strike, HSR.health's technology enables organizations to anticipate disruptions to operations, assets, and populations they serve. Join us as Ajay shares how his team combines cutting-edge technology with healthcare expertise to create a more resilient global health system and drive meaningful impact where technology meets public health. Let's go!Episode Highlights:Courage and imagination drive HSR.health's innovative approach to healthcare challenges using geospatial analytics.Their platform guided WHO's COVID-19 response and vaccine allocation across multiple continents.They discovered how coordinating school and construction schedules significantly reduced pediatric hospitalizations.Their technology predicts health needs before disasters strike, enabling proactive resource positioning.Ajay envisions combining geospatial analytics, AI, and emerging technologies to transform health risk prediction.About our Guest: Over a near 30-year career in cybersecurity and information technology, Ajay has seen organizations create true competitive advantage from successful management of security and technology initiatives. At the same time, healthcare is burdened with outdated technology infrastructure and inefficiencies - which are often measured in human lives. Ajay decided to take his understanding of technology and implementation to disrupt and innovate healthcare.In launching HSR.health, Ajay leverages the best of tech to transform American healthcare into a system that innovates healthcare delivery achieving improved quality, lower costs, and health equity. Under Ajay's leadership, HSR.health pivoted to support COVID response in the US and globally. And through its lessons learned has developed insights into how health risks impact broader markets. The company has discovered a means of predicting future health risks based on social and environmental determinants of health – and works with public health, government at all levels, and businesses to assess the impact of those risks to their operations, assets, and the populations they serve. In addition to his work at HSR.health, Ajay Chairs the Health Domain Working Group for the Open Geospatial Consortium, the global standards setting body for all things Geo; is a Commissioner on the newly formed Commission on Nurse Reimbursement; serves as the Co-Lead for the Healthcare Infrastructure work group of the UN-chartered Group on Earth Observation (GEO) Health Community of Practice (CoP); and is a member of the College Board of Visitors for Wake Forest University.

In this episode, CJ interviews Lucas Swisher, Co-Lead of Growth Investing and Software Investing at Coatue, to explore how one of tech's most influential investment firms navigates both public and private markets. Lucas explains Coatue's evolution—from hedge fund origins to a powerhouse in venture capital—and how the company balances short-term public market pressures and long-term private investments. The conversation takes a dive deep into data-driven decision-making and how Coatue's proprietary Mosaic platform provides an edge while still leaving room for human intuition. They also discuss the firm's investment philosophy, what differentiates them from other investment companies, and why they choose to have such a concentrated portfolio of investments. Lucas sheds light on how they evaluate the sustainability of a small software company's unit economics, the most important metric that they look at, and other important factors and red flags that often get overlooked when choosing where to invest.If you're looking for an ERP head to NetSuite: https://netsuite.com/metrics and get a customized KPI checklist.—SPONSORS:RightRev automates the revenue recognition process from end to end, gives you real-time insights, and ensures ASC 606 / IFRS 15 compliance—all while closing books faster.
