Show Notes: Gideon Yaffe and his then girlfriend-now wife, Sue Chan, drove across the country after graduation to San Francisco, where they had no jobs or prospects. Gideon had applied to graduate school in philosophy but didn't get in anywhere. They got married and his first job was at a pet store, Gideon worked there for a while, then at a computer magazine. Studying Philosophy at Stanford While hanging out in San Francisco, he started reading Proust's Remembrance of Things Past, which he loved and found to be hugely rewarding. This inspired him to apply to grad school again and this time his application was accepted in a lot of places. He decided to study philosophy at Stanford, where he met Michael Bratman, a professor who worked on philosophy of action and related questions about the nature of action, agency, and intention. Gideon also became interested in the history of philosophy and wrote a dissertation about John Locke and contemporary problems related to the Free Will problem. Gideon went on the job market in academia. He got some interviews but didn't get a job. The following year, he got a one-year job at UCSD. His wife, Sue, was working in the film industry, so they moved to LA and he commuted down to San Diego. Tenure at the University of Southern California He finally secured a tenure track job at the University of Southern California (USC) in 1999 and taught Philosophy of Law classes. He wrote a paper about addiction, which he found interesting due to his knowledge of addicts and interest in freedom and addiction and how addiction would undermine freedom. When a friend of Gideon's was a victim of a carjacking incident, he became interested in the legal problem at the center of many carjacking cases that revolves around intention, so he wrote a paper about conditional intention. Gideon explains how carjacking differs from car theft, and the paper questioned whether a conditional intention was enough for the crime when the statute called for unconditional intention. Gideon felt that philosophy of law was important to work on but he needed to know more about the law, so he coerced USC into giving him a year in the law school. Gideon recounts his experience as a law student and how it led to teaching law in law school. Collaborating on a Neuroscience and Legal Proceedings Think Tank The MacArthur Foundation launched the law and neuroscience project, which aimed to bring together various people from philosophy, law, and neuroscience to discuss the relevance of neuroscience to legal proceedings, particularly in criminal law. Gideon was invited to be part of this think tank. During this time, he collaborated with neuroscientists on various problems and experiments related to neuroscience that could be useful to the legal system. This led to a desire to learn more about neuroscience and he pursued a grant to support the project. He spent another year as a neuroscience student at Cal Tech which allowed him to learn a lot about neuroscience. Gideon also started writing a book about attempted crimes. Gideon talks about the importance of understanding the double failure of attempts, and inherent impossible attempts. He highlights the number of cases where individuals seem incapable of committing crimes. Gideon received a job offer from Yale University after being a part of the MacArthur think tank and his book. He decided to take the position and he and his family moved to New Haven. Neuroscience, Law, and GenAI Intentions Gideon talks about the challenges faced by those who attempt to escape the harsh realities of the criminal justice system. His experiences highlight the importance of understanding the factors that contribute to attempted crimes. The conversation turns to Gideon's involvement in generative AI and the potential of AI intentions. He is currently working on a project with neuroscientist Uri Maoz, which aims to understand, for example, the difference between self-driving cars and drones in terms of intentions. Another project involves a group funded by billionaire Sergey Brin, who has a daughter with severe autism. The group aims to build AI models of the brain of a person and use the model to see how it responds to various forms of surgery. AI, Consciousness, and Intentions Organizing Behavior Gideon discusses the concept of AI consciousness. Gideon states that a lot depends on how consciousness is defined. One understanding is that consciousness involves self-representation of certain kinds of thoughts. He suggests that understanding consciousness depends on what one thinks about it. One way of understanding consciousness involves self-representation of certain kinds, such as having a second-order thought about the thought. If that's all that's required for consciousness, then these LLMs can be conscious. Another way of understanding consciousness involves qualia, or ways of feeling, such as experiencing a particular sensation or feeling something. However, he acknowledges that it is difficult to know exactly what it is like to be an LLM or a toaster. He acknowledges that there are some similarities between the two, but acknowledges the challenges in determining their exact roles in AI and neuroscience. Gideon explains that intentions serve to organize behavior in various interesting ways. For example, if an AI has intentions, they can make decisions now so they don't have to think about them later. This is relevant for coordinating behavior with each other, as well as interpersonal organization. The question of whether AIs have intentions is more tractable than the question of whether they are conscious. Intentions play a crucial role in various aspects of law, such as contract interpretation and legal texts. Understanding the intentions of AI and their potential impact on these areas is essential for understanding the future of AI and its applications in various fields. Updating Law to Address AI Intention The conversation explores the need to rewrite laws or update them to address the issue of intention in AI. Gideon states that the intention of a person or AI and the textual language, and the interpretation of the text are all areas that need to be explored. The project Gideon is working on aims to determine the intentions of AI by examining the role their representation plays in guiding their behavior. Gideon suggests that the question is whether inferences can be made about AI's intentions by looking at the role the representations plays from the AI behavior. Gideon talks about a project on criminal activity and neuroscience that he is proud of. Leniency and Child Criminality Gideon goes on to talk about leniency and child criminality. He argues that the reason to give a break to kids who engage in criminal behavior is disenfranchisement, not neural immaturity. He talks about the age of maturity, lack of political participation. Gideon's book about kids was written after completing his studies at Yale. He also discusses his personal life, including being in a car accident which resulted in a severe brain injury and how he is immensely grateful for his recovery. Influential Harvard Courses and Professors Gideon mentions a core class on the Baroque period by Simon Schama, which he found to be the most influential. The course focused on famous European paintings from the Baroque period, which he found to be a source of inspiration. Other influential courses include a seminar with Hilary Putnam, Rational Action with Robert Nozick.

I'm Michael Johnson, class of 1992. The featured nonprofit of this episode of The 92 Report is Son of a Saint. Son of a Saint provides guidance, mentorship and opportunities to young boys in the New Orleans area who did not have a father in the home, usually due to death or incarceration. Founded in 2011 by Sonny Lee, who lost his own father, a defensive back of the saints from a heart attack at the age of 36, Son of a Saint is making a significant impact on the lives of young boys in the New Orleans area. My wife and I have been supporters for many years, as has my firm advantage capital, which recently endowed a scholarship that will cover high school tuition for two boys from the program. Although my circumstances were much different, having lost my own father when I was five years old, I know firsthand how important a male influence can be on a young boy. I luckily had family members and friends who stepped up from me and hope in some small way, my support of Son of a Saint and the work their mentors do can give the boys and their programs similar help. You can learn more about their work at Son of a Saint.org and now here's Will Bachman with this week's episode.” To learn more about their work, visit: www.sonofasaint.org.

In this insightful episode of Generation AI, hosts JC Bonilla and Ardis Kadiu speak with Lev Gonick, CIO of Arizona State University, about how AI is reshaping higher education technology systems. Gonick shares ASU's innovative approach to AI implementation, discussing their transition from fragmented "Frankenstein" tech systems to a more integrated architecture using AI agents. He explains how ASU is already deploying orchestrated AI agents across campus operations - from parking to financial aid to classroom instruction - and offers a practical vision for how universities can adapt to this technological shift. This conversation is essential listening for higher education professionals looking to understand how AI can transform student experiences and institutional operations.The Current State of University Technology Systems (00:00:25)Discussion of universities as technology "Frankensteins" with disconnected systemsGonick explains ASU's dual approach to AI: both as additional tools and as potential unifiersThe challenge of balancing pragmatic immediate needs with long-term integration goalsASU's outlook on technology focuses on opportunity and abundance rather than scarcityThe Timeline for Technology Transformation in Higher Education (00:02:14)Gonick suggests the transition away from fragmented systems could take "a generation or two"ASU positions itself as an outlier and model for what a "new American university" can look likeThe importance of proving what's possible by implementing future-focused solutions todayASU's commitment to focusing on "the future today" rather than waiting for perfect solutionsASU's Leadership in AI Implementation (00:03:45)Reference to ASU's publication documenting their AI journey with 40+ implementation storiesDiscussion of ASU's mindset that emphasizes growth and innovationGonick quotes Alan Kay: "If you want to predict the future, invent it"ASU's philosophy: "If you want to invent the future, start" - emphasizing action over debateAI's Transformation of Higher Education (00:05:33)Gonick argues AI represents a "tectonic shift" that will redefine not just how we teach but what we teachMany universities are stuck in an academic debate rather than testing and experimentingASU's approach involves real-world testing while adhering to principles of innovationThe need for agile, iterative approaches to AI implementation similar to software developmentThe Evolution from Generative AI to AI Agents (00:08:57)Reflection on the past year's progress from classroom-focused generative AI to agent-based systemsGonick suggests current generative AI implementations will eventually be seen as "prehistory"Discussion of how voice and video AI experiences may create economic value in educationThe emergence of "agentic" AI systems where multiple specialized agents work togetherASU's Current Work with AI Agents (00:11:35)ASU has developed approximately a dozen purpose-built AI agents for different functionsThese agents are now being orchestrated to work together rather than operating independentlyExamples include agents for syllabus creation, assessment, skills development, and career opportunitiesDiscussion of the need for "Centurion" agents to ensure privacy, security and ethical useAI Applications in Campus Operations (00:14:52)ASU is implementing agentic AI experiences in back-office operations like parking managementPlans for teaching and learning agent implementations starting in August for the new school yearDevelopment of pedagogy agents that support different teaching methods (Socratic, case method, etc.)Financial aid navigation as another major area where AI agents are improving student and family experiencesThe Digital Workforce and Organizational Change (00:20:49)Discussion of AI agents functioning as a "digital workforce" that requires managementThe need to rearchitect how work is done in university settingsHuman resistance to change as a major challenge in AI implementationASU's approach to helping employees transition to new roles through upskilling and reskilling programsThe Near Future of AI in Higher Education (00:24:47)Discussion of the impact of politics and regulations on AI implementationASU's view of challenges as opportunities and their focus on adaptabilityThe concept of building "anti-fragile" institutions that not only survive disruption but thriveThe importance of planning with a longer horizon while remaining agile - - - -Connect With Our Co-Hosts:Ardis Kadiuhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ardis/https://twitter.com/ardisDr. JC Bonillahttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jcbonilla/https://twitter.com/jbonillxAbout The Enrollify Podcast Network:Generation AI is a part of the Enrollify Podcast Network.

Recent research shows shockwave therapy is ineffective for tendon pain. Calcification in tendons may be an adaptive response. PRP injections do not outperform placebo treatments. Stem cell therapy lacks sufficient evidence for tendon healing. Adjunct therapies should be accessible, cheap, and safe. Heel wedges have shown significant effects in treating Achilles tendinopathy. Loading strategies must be tailored to individual patient needs. Tendon stiffness is primarily improved through heavy loading. Fluid movement within tendons is essential for adaptation. Loading the tendon heavier leads to better fluid movement. Isometrics are crucial for early rehabilitation stages. Heavy maximal eccentrics are key for long-term adaptation. Fluid movement impacts stress relaxation in tendons. Tendon stiffness increases with appropriate loading. Metabolic health is essential for tendon adaptation. Pathological tendons may require different loading strategies. Fluid movement can help reduce pain and improve function. Plyometrics may not provide sufficient strain for adaptation. Blood flow restriction can be effective for tendon rehabilitation. Notes: https://jackedathlete.com/podcast-131-tendons-with-peter-malliaras/
Dr. Colin Bell - formerly of Mammoth Microbes and currently working with the incredible Miim Horticulture - returns to the show! Today we are doing a microbial deep dive in an attempt to understand what is essentially a massive iceberg of microbe knowledge. We only know a brief portion of how powerful and influential micro organisms are, but every year we are understanding more and more about how bacteria, fungi, and other tiny beings shape the world around us. Colin gives us a great breakdown of how microbes work from a basic perspective, how they interact and communicate with plants, and eventually dives deep enough to explain that just about everything to do with the human experience is powered by the microbiology within our own human microbiome. Even plants themselves, may have evolved from collections of ancient bacteria- thus it is crucial to understand and employ more of these tiny organisms in our own home gardens!

Join the Kingdom Reformation Community. Sign up at KingdomReformers.org Episode Description: Join Glenn Bleakney as he delves into the profound themes of purification and restoration within the church, emphasizing a powerful transformation that is underway. This episode highlights a prophetic word from David Minor, which speaks of the "wind of holiness" blowing through the land, urging believers to turn their faces into this transformative wind. Glenn explains that this season is not about destruction but divine reconstruction, as Christ prepares His church for unprecedented revival and kingdom advancement. He emphasizes the importance of understanding God's ways to experience His glory, as exemplified by Moses. As the church navigates these changes, listeners are encouraged to embrace a renewed commitment to Christ's lordship, purity, and effective service in the Kingdom.The Church stands on the brink of profound transformation, as articulated by Glenn Bleakney in this insightful episode focused on the purification and restoration process currently unfolding. Bleakney emphasizes that this moment should not be viewed through the lens of destruction, but rather as an essential reconstruction, where God is preparing His people for an unprecedented revival. Drawing on a prophetic word from David Minor, delivered in 1987, Bleakney describes a powerful wind of the Holy Spirit that calls the Church to turn its face into the wind, embracing the changes and challenges it brings. This prophetic insight serves as a reminder that institutions failing to align with God's purpose will face consequences, while those who yield to His transformative hand will experience renewal and empowerment for kingdom advancement.Key biblical references enrich the discussion, with Bleakney highlighting the importance of understanding God's ways to experience His glory. He reflects on the journey of Moses, who sought to know God's ways before witnessing His acts, suggesting that this understanding is crucial for the Church today. Blakeney calls for a collective response to this divine invitation, urging believers to engage in repentance, renewal, and a deeper submission to Christ's lordship. This purification process, while daunting, is framed as an act of God's loving discipline, intended to refine and prepare His Church to carry His glory effectively.Listeners are encouraged to assess their personal walks with God and their roles within the broader Church community. The episode serves as a powerful reminder that the current spiritual climate is one of opportunity—a chance to align with God's purposes and to actively participate in the divine work of renewal that is taking place. Blakeney's message instills a sense of hope and urgency, as he believes that the Church is being positioned for a mighty demonstration of God's power that the world has yet to witness.Takeaways: The current transformation of the church reflects Jesus Christ's sovereign lordship and authority. Purification and restoration are essential for the church to embrace revival and reformation. Understanding God's ways is crucial for experiencing His glory and power in our lives. The prophetic word from David Minor highlights the necessity of turning into the wind of holiness. God's purification process is redemptive, stemming from His deep love for His church. Embracing this season of transformation positions us for unprecedented kingdom advancement and impact. Prophetic word given to the Church by David Minor midnight 6th April, 1987The Spirit of God would say to you that the wind of the Holy Spirit is blowing through the land. The Church, however, is incapable

They reflect on their personal journeys, experiences in the Middle East, and the importance of understanding both the Old and New Testaments.

Show Notes: J.J. Bartlett kicks off the conversation with a short explanation on how his wife shaped his career in various ways. He took healthcare management in graduate school and his primary reason for this was his interest in extending healthcare coverage. The President Clinton and Hillary Clinton Health Plan had just failed in 1994, and he was interested in finding new ways to extend coverage. Health Coverage for Fishers J.J. shares his connection to the fishing industry, which includes individual fishermen working on boats as independent contractors. The majority of these individuals are men, with some women. He explains the situation of fishermen in the 90s, where half were uninsured, while the other half only had coverage through their spouse, Medicare, Medicaid, or junk coverage. The conversation turns to the structure of the plan for community health plans for independent professionals in Massachusetts which was a collaborative effort between fishermen, politicians, and other stakeholders. The plan was designed to provide coverage for those directly related to the fishing industry, requiring more than half of their income to come from fishing. This was done to ensure that income from commercial fishing was counted, and that no whaling or other issues were present. The plan was funded through federal and state funding, with the federal money being kicked in early and the state program being a state program. The federal money allowed the program to reduce the rate that fishermen paid on average by 60%, which was beneficial for taxpayers as they could afford it. This was done on a sliding scale that was redid every year to accommodate fluctuating incomes in the industry. The plan smoothed out a period for fishermen to afford coverage over a period of time, rather than going on and off coverage. J.J. shares a recent example of this which led to fishermen not being eligible for mass health. The Model for Obamacare J.J. talks about the origins of the Fishing Partner Health Plan healthcare system. The conversation turns to the Massachusetts State Health Plan, which became the model for Obamacare, and was influenced by the people involved in the Fishing Partner Health Plan healthcare system. Some of the lessons learned from the Fishing Partner Health Plan healthcare system include the importance of not carving out the most endangered population in the country, but recognizing the importance of providing healthcare through enrollment offices. J.J. shares an example of a successful implementation of the Fishing Partner Health Plan healthcare system. The lessons learned from the Fishing Partner Health Plan healthcare system can be applied to other industries to help ensure that the most vulnerable populations receive the necessary care and support. The Health Plan Today The health plan initially provided treatment for those in shock or depression following an accident, but it stopped in trying to get them insured. However, they now have a system of care available, including safety training for fishermen and a national grant program. This is a preventive measure for the deadliest job in the country. Additionally, they have relationships with trauma centers, providing treatment for those injured or witnessed the accident. This trauma care is available to employers within their HR department. After 15 years, Obamacare allowed people to transition to the new system. The Fishing Partnership Support Services J.J. talks about how many workers in many occupations do not have adequate coverage or even the ability to take time off for illness. At the top of the list are Massachusetts fishermen. The organization, Fishing Partnership Support Services, has been in operation since 1997 and focuses on providing various services to the fishing industry. It trains community health workers to help people transition from uninsured to insured, especially for fishermen with fluctuating incomes. The organization also runs a community health program that provides preventive care. They have also begun behavioral health services, addressing the issue of opioid overdoses among fishermen. J.J. also talks about the problem of dealing with extreme pain and addiction. Fishermen are more likely to die from opioid overdoses due to their job-related pain and the high costs associated with working on boats. The organization's navigators help address this issue by educating fishermen about the importance of their jobs and the need for first aid. They also provide training on carrying Narcan and its use, with navigators trained as recovery coaches. The organization partners with various treatment groups, including trauma support, to help fishermen navigate the challenges of substance use disorder and other workplace issues. Influential Harvard Courses and Professors J.J. highlights the importance of the people, such as Governor Maura Healey and Mayor of New Bedford, who have supported the program and worked with him. He also mentions the connection between the fishing industry and the city of Boston's history. He also mentions his experience working with Senator Kennedy and his staff.

In Episode 6 of the "Philosophy of Meditation" series, John Vervaeke and Rick Repetti discuss with guest Massimo Pigliucci how stoicism and meditation intertwine. Massimo, an acclaimed philosopher, delves into his transition from evolutionary biology to philosophy and Stoicism. The conversation covers key aspects of Stoicism, including the practice of mindfulness, attention (prosoche), and the Stoic approach to life's challenges. They discuss the parallels and differences between Stoic practices and Buddhist meditation, emphasizing the importance of rationality and judgment in Stoicism. The episode also touches on mindfulness in modern contexts, comparing it to classical practices, and concludes with Massimo sharing his personal Stoic meditative practices and reflections on life and death. Massimo Pigliucci is a distinguished philosopher and author renowned for his work in the philosophy of science and his advocacy for Stoicism as a practical philosophy for modern life. He is a key figure in the modern revival of Stoicism, contributing significantly through his writings, talks, and as a certified philosophical counselor. Glossary of Terms Stoicism: An ancient Greek philosophy that emphasizes rationality, virtue, and resilience. Mindfulness: The practice of maintaining a nonjudgmental state of heightened awareness of one's thoughts, emotions, or experiences. Prosoche: A Stoic term for attentive mindfulness, focusing on rational judgment and action.

Mainframes, the early giants of the computing world, were massive and expensive, accessible only to large corporations and the government. These machines were housed in special rooms and were far from being personal or portable. Transition to Client-Server Models and Personalization: Computing started evolving with the development of client-server architecture. From the large, centralized mainframes, the industry moved to a model where computing was more distributed. Time-sharing systems allowed multiple users to access mainframe resources, leading to a gradual democratization of computing power. This shift laid the groundwork for the development of personal computers. The Era of Desktops and Handheld Devices: The next significant shift was the move to desktops and eventually to handheld devices. This evolution represented a dramatic change in how people interacted with computers, making them more personal and portable. The podcast mentions how devices like the Apple II brought computing into educational settings, revolutionizing how people could use these tools. The Impact of the Palm Pilot: The Palm Pilot is highlighted as a significant milestone in personal computing. Before the Palm, handheld devices were simply smaller versions of existing technology. The Palm Pilot, however, adopted a different approach. It did not try to replicate all functionalities of a PC. For instance, it did not support printing directly, positioning itself as a window or client to the PC, thus embracing a kind of client-server model. This decision not only made the device more practical and focused but also less expensive to support. Evolution of Form Factors: The podcast discusses the evolution of computing devices in terms of form factors. There were three main form factors: desktop (too big to carry), notebook (fit in a briefcase), and handheld (fit in a pocket or purse). Each form factor was defined by how users could physically carry and interact with these devices. It was believed that devices falling between these form factors would not be successful, although this was later proven not entirely accurate with the success of intermediate devices like tablets.
