John Chang shares his five-year outlook for commercial real estate and reflects on the future forces that could shape the industry. He explains how AI, geopolitical uncertainty, and stock market valuations may influence economic growth, investor behavior, and commercial real estate demand. Chang also breaks down sector-specific expectations, noting that multifamily may offer strong opportunities at today's repriced valuations, while office and industrial will likely remain more selective and market dependent. He concludes that despite economic and political uncertainty, commercial real estate may outperform stocks over the next five to ten years for investors who buy assets in today's market conditions.

פרק מספר 512 (חזקה תשיעית!) של רברס עם פלטפורמה - קרבורטור מספר 40, שהוקלט ב-24 בפברואר 2026. נכון למועד ההקלטה עדיין אין מלחמה [לא התיישן טוב…], ואורי ורן מארחים את הנביא האורח נתי שלום לשיחה, דיונים, וויכוחים ותחזיות (דיסטופיות ברובן) על עולם שבו ה-AI כבר לא רק כותב קוד, אלא מחליף את המציאות כפי שהכרנו אותה. [01:58] "משהו גדול קורה": הניתוח של Matt Shumerבלוג-פוסט של המפתח Matt Shumer, שנקרא Something Big is Happening התפרסם בלא מעט מקומות והיכה גלים.מעבר מסקפטיות מוחלטת ("זה בחיים לא יעבוד") למצב שבו המודל עושה את כל עבודת הקידוד שלו.נתי - מה שמעניין פה זה הניתוח של שוק העבודה, ואיך נראה שוק ה-Hiring כפי שהוא היום.הדיבורים על "הכתובת על הקיר" זה כבר פאסה – "הכתובת היא כבר בכיס כמעט". הנתונים מראים ירידה משמעותית ב-Hiring שהתחילה כבר משנת 2025 ונמשכת לתוך 2026.“זה קורה עכשיו - ועכשיו אתה צריך לבחור באיזה צד אתה נמצא: הצד המרוויח או הצד הנפגע”.רן מדגיש שזה לא רק למפתחים – גם עורכי דין ורואי חשבון ובכל שאר המקצועות צריכים להחליט באיזה צד הם. יש כאן (לפחות) שני אספקטים עיקריים - איך אנחנו רואים את שוק התוכנה, ואז זה משפיע על כל שאר שוק העבודה.אורי - אנחנו רואים את ההשפעה מבפנים, בתוך שוק התוכנה. האם ישנן תעשיות שלא מושפעות עדיין, או לפחות לא מרגישות את זה?למשל יוצאי יחידות טכנולוגיות שמאוד מבוקשים בשוק, אבל ארגונים בטחוניים לא יכולים להכניס הרבה מהטכנולוגיות Cutting-edge הללו, לפחות לא בקצב שהן יוצאות.מועמדים כאלה אולי פתאום לא מתאימים בדיוק לעולם שרץ “בחוץ”.נתי משתף סיפור אישי/מקצועי על שיר אלגום, שנדחתה ממשרה ב-HR כי לא הכירה מספיק AI, ובתגובה הפכה למומחית שמרצה ב-Amazon.שינוי גישה: "העולם השתנה, הבנתי, אני עכשיו באירוע".אורי ונתי מחפשים השוואות למהפכות קודמות, ולא בטוחים אם יש כאלו בדיוק - מעבר משימוש ב-Intellect האנושי כדי לייצר יתרון - למצב בו "ה-Intellect עובר קומודיטיזציה".אין יותר Job security בהייטק המסורתי, וחזרה לכיוון של מקצועות יותר “מסורתיים”, פיזיים.[10:17] עידן ה-Agents וה-+Resumeנתי - קונספט של “Professional Agents”: מומחים כבר לא מוכרים את עצמם כעובדים, אלא כסוכנים, או ככאלה שמתמחים ביצירת סוכנים.סוכן הוא כמו ילד – צריך לגדל אותו ולשכלל אותו, דורש הרבה Nurturing.רן - ספציפית: מדברים על מעצבים, רואי-חשבון - מקצועות ספציפיים, שהם אולי לא חלק מהליבה של החברה, אבל נמצאים בכל חברה.נתי - דוגמא של Marketing: אם מישהו כבר הכין את רוב ה-Workflows מראש, זה משהו שאני מוכן לשלם עליו.אורי מציין שגם בגידול של ילד באיזשהו שלב עוברים ל-Outsourcing יותר ויותר . . . חברות עוברות לתת שירות של סוכן יחד עם “גידול סוכנים” ושכלול שלהם: סוכן + משהו שמתחזק אותו ומתאים אותו לצרכים שלך.הבשורה טובה: יש לאן להתפתח - בכל פעם שחסמי-כניסה יורדים, נפתחים תחומים חדשיםאורי ונתי קצת חלוקים על הנקודה, אבל זה דומה למה שהיה בתחילת ימי ה-SaaS, שאולי לא היה קיים אם לא היה Cloud, לפחות לא בקצב וב-Scale, שקודם לכן היה שמור לארגונים מאוד גדולים ולא לסטארטאפים.דוגמא דומה היא Big-Data.נתי אומר שהורדת חסמי-הכניסה תכניס הרבה גורמים חדשים לתחום, לאו דווקא רק מכיוון של מדעי-המחשב.אורי - השוני במהפכה הזו הוא שיש מצב שבו סוכן יכול לייצר סוכן יותר טוב . . . נתי מפריד בין מוצרים “גנריים” - יש את המודלים של Anthropic ו-OpenAI ומשפחות המוצרים הנגזרות וכו' - ובין ה”OpenClaw למיניהם”, שהם גרסא פשוטה יותר וזולה יותר, יחד עם קוד-פתוח ומוצרים בסגנון הזה.רן משווה את המאבק בין מודלים גנריים (כמו Anthropic) למודלים פתוחים (כמו OpenClaw) ל-"האנדרואיד לעומת האייפון".נתי מדבר על ראיון העבודה העתידי: “עובדים יבואו עם ה-10X של עצמם”: מועמדים לא יבואו עם קורות חיים, אלא עם רזומה פלוס – צוות סוכנים שבנו ושיודעים לשכלל להם את העבודה.בשנה-שנתיים-שלוש הקרובות, אלו שיעשו את הקפיצה ויבנו את הסוכנים וידעו להגיע עם זה לראיון עבודה - זו יכולה להיות הזדמנות לגדול ולהתבסס.אבל - אנחנו לא יודעים כמה ומי הולך להיפגע: “יהיה פה מצב של ירידה לטובת עלייה”.[17:03] “אז מה יכול לקרות?”: הסינגולריות והמתכנת האחרוןרן מעלה את השאלה המפחידה: האם כל הניסיון שצברנו כמפתחים הלך לפח? השנים הקרובות כנראה הולכות להיות מבלבלות, אבל ננסה להסתכל מעבר לזה.האם לא יהיו יותר מתכנתים, כי לא צריך - או שיהיו הרבה יותר מתכנתים והרבה יותר תוכנה, אבל מקצוע התכנות יראה אחרת?נתי חוזה ירידה למען עלייה - אבל בשונה מהמעבר ל-Cloud-Native למשל, שלקח בערך 10 שנים (ולא נגמר…), כאן הקצב הרבה יותר מהיר (התעשייה השתנתה בתוך שנה).זוכרים את “כולם משתמשים ב-AI, אבל לא רואים את ה-ROI”? זה היה בתחילת 2025 . . . מאז הסטטיסטיקות התחילו להשתנות.רן - “אם לפני שנה הייתי נותן ל-Agent משימות קידוד קטנות, ולפעמים זה מצליח ולפעעמים זה לא - היום זה עולם אחר לגמרי”.אז יכנסו יותר מעגלי-אוכלוסיה לתחום - אבל הצד השלילי הוא הירידה שלפני: כמות האנשים שדרושים למשימות שיש היום, עד שיווצר ה-Demand החדש, תגרום להרבה אנשים למצוא את עצמם “מחוץ למעגל”.מדינות תצטרכנה איכשהו לספוג את הירידה הזו - מימון הכשרות, תקופות הסתגלות וכו' - אחרת זו בדיוק הסביבה למהפכות והתדרדרות למקומות יותר בעייתיים.ולא שהסדר העולמי מסביב שליו ורגוע גם ככה [נתכתב מהממ”ד במהלך מלחמה באירן…].אורי - כבר רואים התחלה של “כלכלת סיליקון”, ומדינות nתחילות לחשוב על מאגרי הChip-ים שלהן . . . נתי מזכיר פרק של All-In, שמדבר על תחזיות מאוד אופטימיות, ועל פניו קצת מנותקות - “המון הזדמנויות והכל יהיה בסדר”, בזמן שמי שבתחום יודע שזה לא ממש ככה.נראה שב-Silicon Valley יש בעיקר התעלמות - חוגגים בתוך מעגל מאוד מצומצם.נתי מציע לחשוב על זה כמו על קורונה [במובן החיובי…] - נצטרך התערבות חיצונית כדי לעבור את הגל הזה.רן תוהה האם - בדומה לקורונה - גם התקופה הזו גם תיהיה קטליזטור לתאוריות קונספירציה שעוד תבואנה . . . אורי - מצד שני, גם תרבות הפנאי התפתחה מאוד בתקופת הקורונה, אולי שוב מישהו אחר עושה את העבודה ואז יש יותר פנאי?רן - כבר היום, כשאני מפתח, אני מספיק הרבה יותר, בהרבה פחות זמן. אז אנחנו מייצרים הרבה יותר תוכנה . . .אורי - אבל אז ה-bottlenecks עוברים למקומות אחרים.רן - OpenAI הזכירו, לגבי הפיתוח של Codex 5.3 – שהמודל פותח בעזרת גרסאות קודמות של עצמו."זה בערך By definition הסינגולריות" . . .“אל תצפו שהסינגולריות תקרה ביום אחד בודד” . . . “מי שהיה במהפכה התעשייתית לא יודע שהוא במהפכה התעשייתית".[27:57] חמשת ה-Moats של 2026נתי - האם נכון לבנות סטארטאפ באי ודאות כזו? מה הסיכוי של סטארטאפ כזה לשרוד?נאמר על רקע שבוע מאוד לא מוצלח למניות חברות ה-SaaS . . . .יש הרבה תגובות-יתר - אבל קורים הרבה דברים באמת מדהימים.נתי מציע 5 נקודות קריטיות ליזמים (סוג של Checklist) שרוצים לשרוד בעולם שבו כל דבר גנרי נמחק (כמו IBM שצנחה כי Anthropic פרסמו בלוג-פוסט על Cobol . . . ):ורטיקליזציה (Verticalization): אל תהיו גנריים. Google ו-Anthropic ו-OpenAI שולטים ביד רמה.תהיו הכי טובים במשהו ספציפי - עריכת דין או חינוך וכו'.שליטה במידע (Proprietary Data): דאטה שה-LLM הגדולים והמודלים הגנריים לא ראו, כמו מגמות ספציפיות בתוך נתוני לקוחות.יעילות (Efficiency): שימוש ב-SLM (Small Language Models) למשל, כדי לחסוך ב-Token-ים וב-Latency (קריטי ברובוטיקה וב-Security, למשל).רן - מודל גדול יקבל את ההחלטה הנכונה, אבל אולי מאוחר מדי.חווית משתתמש (UX ייחודי): חווית משתמש שפותרת בעיה נקודתית ונותנת ערך מהיר (Time to Value).ה-Chat של המודלים הגדולים מאוד גנרי.סטארטאפים צריכים להתמקד ביכולת לייצר חוויית משתמש מאוד מותאמת לחווייה נקודתית.רן - האם בכלל עוד יהיה UI (או שהצרכנים הם גם Agents . . . .)? בהקשר של פיקסלים . . . .נתי, אורי - בסוף , אתה רוצה לייצר ערך לאדם.בסוף זה עניין של Time to Value: אני אולי יכול לייצר את זה לבד, השאלה האם לא יותר מהיר ויעיל להשתמש במשהו שמישהו אחר כבר ייצר.ואחרון (אם כי נתי אמר ש "החמישי הוא לא לשידור…”) - Disruption: ה-Disruption האמיתי הוא לעשות קניבליזציה לקטגוריות ישנות.אפשר לעשות את אותם הדברים שעשינו בעבר, אבל בצורה אחרת לגמרי.הרבה דברים קודמים נעשו בגלל מגבלות של עולם שהוא Pre-Agentic, ועכשיו לא רלוונטיות - מה שמאפשר מודל עסקי אחר לחלוטין.ואז ה-Price-point יכול להיות מאוד שונה מכזה שהוכתב ע”י תעשיות מאוד גדולות ומבנה עלויות מאוד יקר לתפעול.אורי מתזכר את ה-Moats של Warren Buffet, ונתי מספר שהוא לא חושב שפגש חברה אחת שבאמת עושה את כל הדברים הללו, יזמים עדיין לא חושבים ככה.במיוחד בארץ, עדיין מתייחסים מאוד לבידול הטכנולוגי ופחות למובן של UX או מודל עסקי.[39:26] הזרקת DNA ומהלכי ה-M&A החדשיםנתי אומר שמשקיעים בהרבה מקרים לא יודעים לנתח הזדמנויות ולעשות Evaluation שלא על סמך טרנד צמיחה של ARR.אורי - עולם ההשקעות לא הולך לכיוון של SaaS, כי מצד אחד יש המון Disruption risk ומצד שני נראה שהצורך במגמת ירידה.נתי - יש כמה סוגי-Exists שונים שמשקיעים מחפשים, מעבר למודל הקלאסי של “תבנה חברה, תגדל איתה, תייצר מספיק כסף . . . .”.קנייה של טכנולוגיות ואנשים - חברות צריכות “להזריק לעצמן DNA חדש”, ואז מסתכלים על הסטראטאפ לא רק כטכנולוגיה אלא גם כמנוע לטרנספורציה.חברות במצוקה מנסות למצוא אנשים שיעזרו להן לעשות את הטרנספורמציה, לפחות בחלון הזמן הנוכחי (3 שנים בערך).נתי מזכיר דוגמא שעלתה בעבר - Google: לפני שנה כולם הספידו אותם, ואז הם קנו את Character.AI, ובעצם את נועם שזיר (Noam Shazeer) ב-2 ביליון דולר, כי הם הבינו שהם במצוקה.נתי טוען שלחברות במצוקה יהיה מאוד קשה לעשות כזה שינוי רק על ידי צמיחה אורגנית.אורי מדבר על חברות שעושות קניבליזציה-מוצרית לעצמן - מתחרים במוצר המסורתי הקודם שלהן.נתי טוען שבמקרה של Google זה השתלם להם עם Search Generative Experience (SGE).[46:00] סיכום וסגירהרן ממליץ לכולם לקרוא את הבלוג-פוסט של Matt Shumer (או לבקש מ-Agent לתקצר אותו).נתי חותם עם המלצה אופטימית-מעשית: "למדו את עצמכם... תחשבו שאתם באים למקום העבודה הבא שלכם כבר לא אתם-עצמכם... זה רזומה + צוות עובדים שאתם מביאים איתכם, שזה הסוכנים".אורי כבר מכין את הקרקע לפרק הבא: מהפכת ה-Quantum Computing."שיעורי הבית שלכם יכולים להיות 0, 1 או שניהם ביחד" . . .

Live from Morgan Stanley's TMT conference, our panel break down where AI is already delivering real returns—and where rapid advances are raising new risks.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Michelle Weaver: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Michelle Weaver, U.S. Thematic and Equity Strategist here at Morgan Stanley.Today we've got a special episode on AI adoption. And this is a first in a two-part conversation live from our Technology, Media and Telecom conference.It's Thursday, March 5th at 11am in San Francisco.We're really excited to be here with all of you taping live. And we've got on stage with me. Stephen Byrd, he's our Global Head of Thematic and Sustainability Research; Josh Baer, Software Analyst; and Lindsay Tyler, TMT Credit Research Analyst.So, Stephen, I want to start with you, pretty broad, pretty high level. We recently published our fifth AI Mapping Survey that identifies how different companies are exposed to the broad AI theme. Can you just share with us some insights from that piece and how stocks are performing with this AI exposure?Stephen Byrd: Yeah, it's interesting. I mean, we've been doing this survey now, thanks to you, Michelle, and your excellent work, for quite a while. And every six months it is pretty telling to see the progression.I would say a few things that got my attention from our most recent mapping was the number of companies that are quantifying the adoption benefits continues to go up quite a bit. And to me that feels like that's going to be table stakes very soon as in every industry you see two or three companies that are really laying out quite specifically what they expect to be able to do with AI and lay out the math. I think that really is going to pull all the other companies to follow suit. So, we're seeing that in a big way.We do see adopters, with real tangible benefits performing well. But a new thing that we're seeing now, of course, in the market is concerns that in some cases adoption can lead to dramatic deflation, disruption, et cetera. That's coming up as well. So, we're seeing greater concerns around disruption as well.But broadly, I'd say a proliferation of adoption, that that universe of companies continues to grow, increases in quantification of the benefits. So, that is good. What's really surprised me though, is the narrative among investors has so quickly moved from those benefits which we've talked about into flipping that to toggle all negative, which I know some of our analysts have to deal with every day. The mapping work suggests significant benefits. But the market is fast forwarding to very powerful AI that is very disruptive in deflation. And that's been a surprise to me.Michelle Weaver: Mm-hmm. Josh, I want to bring software into this. Your team has been arguing that AI is actually good for software. And it's really something that you need that application layer to then enable other companies to adopt AI. Can you tell us a little bit about how much GenAI could add to the broader enterprise software market? And how are you thinking about monetization these days?Josh Baer: Of course. I think the best starting place is a reminder that AI is software, and so we see software as a TAM expander. And in many ways, even though this is extremely exciting innovation, it's following past innovation trends where first you see value accrue and market cap accrue to semiconductors, and then hardware and devices, and then eventually software and services. And we do think that that absolutely will occur just given [$]3 trillion in infrastructure investment into data centers and GPUs.There's got to be an application layer that brings all of these productivity and efficiency gains to enterprises and advanced capabilities to consumers as well. And so we see AI more as an evolution for software than a revolution. An evolution of capabilities and expansion of capabilities. LLMs and diffusion engines absolutely unlocked all of these new features of what software can do. But incumbents will play a key role in this unlock.And our CIO surveys really support that. Quarterly we ask chief information officers about their spending intentions, and these application vendors who we cover in the public markets are increasingly selected as vendors that companies will go to, to help deploy and apply AI and LLM technologies.So, to answer your question, we estimate GenAI could unlock [$]400 billion in incremental TAM for software; for enterprise software by 2028. And this is based on looking at the type of work able to be automated, the labor costs associated with that work, the scope of automation, and then thinking about how much of that value is captured typically by software vendors.Michelle Weaver: And you have a bit of a different lens on AI adoption. So, what are some of the ways you're hearing software customers using these AI tools and anything interesting that popped up at the conference?Josh Baer: To echo what Stephen laid out, I mean, all of our software companies are using AI internally, both to drive efficiencies, but also to move faster. So thinking about product. Innovation, you know, the incumbents are able to use all of the same coding tools and, you know, …Michelle Weaver: Mm-hmm.Josh Bear: … products geared to developers to move faster and more efficiently on R&D. So, they're doing more. From a sales and marketing perspective, a G&A perspective, every area of OpEx, our software companies are in a great position to deploy the AI tools internally.I think more important[ly], speaking to this TAM and expanded opportunity, is our companies have skews that they're monetizing. It might be a separate suite that incorporates advanced AI functionality. It might be a standalone offering, or it might be embedded into the core platform because the essence of software is AI and it, you know, leading to better retention rates and acceleration from here.Michelle Weaver: Mm-hmm. And Stephen, going back to you on the state of play for AI, we had the AI labs here and we heard a lot about the developments and what's to come. So, what's your view on the trajectory for LLM advancements and what are some of the key signposts or catalysts you're watching here?Stephen Byrd: Yeah, this is for me, maybe the most important takeaway of the conference – is this continued non-linear improvement of LLMs, which we've been writing about for quite some time. And just to give you an example, we think many of the labs have achieved a step change up in terms of the compute that they have, in some cases 10 x the amount of compute to train their LLMs. And that [if] the scaling laws hold – and we see every sign that they will – a 10x increase in compute used to train the models results in about a doubling of the model capabilities.Now just let that sink in for a moment. Let's just think about that. A doubling from here in a relatively short period of time is difficult to predict. It's obviously very significant and I think several of the LLM execs at our event sounded to me extremely bullish on what that will be. A lot of that I think will be evident in greater agentic capabilities.But also, I'd say greater creativity. It was about three weeks ago, three of the best physics minds in the world worked with an LLM to achieve a true breakthrough in physics – solving a problem that had never been solved before. A couple of days ago, a math team did the same thing. And so, what we're seeing is sort of these breakthrough capabilities in creativity. This morning I thought Sam speaking to, you know, incredible increases in what these models can do – which also brings risk. You know, I think it was interesting he spoke to, you know, the risk of misalignment, the risk of what these models are doing.But for me, that's the single biggest thing that I'm thinking about, and that's going to be evident in the next several months.Michelle Weaver: Mm-hmm.Stephen Byrd: So, you know, on the positive side, it leads to greater benefits from AI adoption. And to Josh's point that, you know – more and more the economy can be addressed by AI, I do get concerned about the risk that that kind of step change will create greater concerns about disruption and deflation.That causes me to think a lot about that dynamic. Interestingly, we think the Chinese labs will not be able to keep pace just for one reason, which is compute. We think the Chinese labs have everything else they need. They have the talent, the infrastructure. They certainly have the energy, power. But they don't have the chips.If what we laid out with the American models turns out to be true, I could see a chain reaction where the Chinese government pushes the Trump administration for full transfer of the best technology to China. And China could use their rare earth trade position to ensure that. So, that's sort of the chain reaction I've been thinking about.Michelle Weaver: Mm-hmm. So, let's think about then bottlenecks in the U.S. Power is still one of the main bottlenecks. We had several of the solutions providers here at the conference. So, what are you thinking in terms of the size of the power bottleneck in the U.S. and how are we going to fix that?Stephen Byrd: Yeah, absolutely. I am bullish on the companies that can de-bottleneck power, not just in the U.S., a few other places. Let's go through the math in terms of the problem we face and then the solution.So, we have this very cool – it is cool if you're a nerd – power model that starts in the chip level up, from our semiconductor teams. And from that, we build a global power demand model for data centers. We then apply that to the U.S.Through 2028 we need about 74 gigawatts of data centers, both AI and non-AI to be built in the United States. I don't think we'll be able to achieve that for lots of reasons. But starting from that 74, we have sort of 10 gigs that have been recently built or are under construction. We have 15 gigs of incremental grid access, but after those two, we have to go to unconventional solutions, meaning typically off-grid solutions, over 40 gigawatts of unconventional solutions.So that will be repurposing Bitcoin sites, which could be sort of 10 to 15 gigawatts. That'll be big. Renewable energy, fuel cells will be part of the solution. Gas turbines will be a big part of the solution. Co-locating at a few nuclear plants. I'm less bullish than I used to be on that. But when we net all that out, we think the U.S. is likely to be 10 to 20 percent short of the data center capacity that will need to be in.It's not just a power grid access issue, though, that's a big one. Labor is now showing up as a huge issue. Many of the companies I speak to trying to develop data centers struggle with availability of labor. Electricians being one very tangible example. In the U.S. we need hundreds of thousands of additional electricians.So, for any of your children, like mine, thinking about careers, you know, you'd be surprised [at] the amount of money that people are making in the infrastructure business that does feel like it's a labor shift that's going to have to happen, but it's going to take years. So, in that context, we had a number of the Bitcoin companies at our event here. And the economics of turning a Bitcoin site into hosting a data center are extremely attractive. I mean, extremely attractive.To give you a sense of that. Before this opportunity presented itself to these Bitcoin players, those stocks tended to trade at an enterprise value per watt of about $1 to $2 a watt. Then we started to see these deals in which the Bitcoin players build a data center and lease them to hyperscalers. Those deals – depends a lot on the deal but – have created between $10 and $18 a watt of value. Let me repeat that. 10 to 18 – relative to where these stocks were at 1 to 2.Now many of these stocks have rerated, but not all of them. And there's still quite a bit of upside. And what we've noticed is the economics that the hyperscalers are paying are trending up and up and up. Because of this power shortage that we're dealing with. So, a lot of exciting opportunities are still in the power space.Michelle Weaver: Great. Well, I think that's a good place to wrap this first part of our conversation around AI adoption and the state of play.

Explores the importance of strengthening our resolve to speak the truth and trust our leadership and why deepening rituals and community for feminine leadership, especially in challenging times is critical to our survival. Our voices have been supressed and as more harm is brought to light by way of the Epstein Files and the destructive commands from the administration in the White House we have an opportunity and a responsibility to hold a line for justice and a new way forward. I shares personal practices, collective prayers, and insights on how women can trust their intuition and embody their unique roles to foster healing and transformation.   "We already know how to do this; we are wise." "The feminine is rising in us all."

Send Catherine a text MessageThe Norwegian fairy tale of "Tatterhood" begins as many stories do, with a kingdom that lacks something essential. Each of us lives in a fairy tale kingdom or two, in an orderly system of protocols and social rules that structure both outer and inner worlds. The stability of the kingdom is important. And yet, the structure eventually outlives its usefulness. The old order stagnates, degrades, and loses meaning. The boundaries are too tight and the space feels too small. Because life = change.Something new, something radical, is needed to catalyze a necessary renewal.Support the showEmail Catherine at drcsvehla@mythicmojo.comPost a positive review on apple podcasts!

Continuing his on-location interview tour of San Francisco, Bob heads an hour north to Santa Rosa to sit down with Nathan Walter, cofounder and CEO of Briefpoint, over a bottle of red wine at Paradise Ridge Winery, a spot literally around the corner from Nathan's house, sitting on the edge of the Mayacamas Mountain Range that divides Sonoma and Napa counties. It is a fitting setting for a founder who grew up in Sonoma wine country, where wine is less a luxury than a way of life, and where his family's most treasured heirloom was a bottle from the year he was born.   Nathan's path to founding Briefpoint is an origin story rooted in genuine frustration with the legal system. A U.C. Santa Barbara philosophy major who drifted into law school for lack of better options, he ultimately landed in civil litigation – and grew increasingly disillusioned with how discovery was weaponized to bleed defendants dry financially, even when they had done nothing wrong. After a particularly infuriating mediation where opposing counsel openly admitted the shakedown strategy, Nathan decided to do something about it. He taught himself to code from YouTube videos, built vaporware prototypes, cold-called attorneys to test demand, and eventually found his technical cofounder through a Discord gaming community he had created to build a social life after moving to Orange County.   What followed was a years-long grind – including an 18-month stretch working days as an entry-level sales rep at another legal tech company and nights building Briefpoint, until a close acquaintance invested $100,000 of her own money so he could focus full time. Briefpoint launched in June 2022, before the ChatGPT wave, focusing narrowly on automating discovery responses – drafting objections, pulling relevant documents and generating formatted Word documents ready to sign. Nathan talks about the company's deliberate "go deep, not wide" strategy: rather than expanding into motions or other legal workflows to chase the AI hype cycle, Briefpoint is doubling down on doing discovery so exceptionally well that firms will pay for it alongside broader AI platforms, the way teams use Slack alongside the full Microsoft suite.   The conversation also covers the threat to legal tech companies posed by foundation models such as Claude and GPT, the psychology behind why attorneys are resistant to automation (Nathan has a theory about "superstitious control" and lucky jerseys), the parallels between winemaking and product development, and the advice he'd give an aspiring founder: burn the ships, go full time and put yourself in a corner with no way out but forward. As for what varietal Briefpoint would be? A Russian River Pinot Noir – not a life-changing Cab, but reliably excellent at exactly what it promises.   Thank You To Our Sponsors This episode of LawNext is generously made possible by our sponsors.

The rapidly escalating conflict in the Middle East is now sending shockwaves through global aviation, with major airspace closures and key international travel hubs suddenly out of action. So what does it mean for Australians planning to travel overseas? In this episode, Natarsha Belling is joined by aviation expert Professor Ron Bartsch, who explains why this disruption could be the most significant to hit global travel since COVID. With major Middle Eastern airline hubs like Dubai, Doha and Abu Dhabi affected, airlines are scrambling to reroute flights through Asia -- triggering delays, reduced capacity and the likelihood of soaring airfares.

Today, we note the US market's out-of-step behaviour relative to the rest of the world, as US traders have taken a buy-the-dip stance while Europe was down heavily on Tuesday and parts of Asia practically crashed overnight. US market internals continue to throw off interesting signals as well. We also note that the market continues to price a relatively short disruption to shipping through the key Strait of Hormuz and discuss on what time scale the disruption would become more profound. Macro & FX and more also on today's pod, which is hosted by Saxo Global Head of Macro Strategy John J. Hardy.

Oil spikes. Gas jumps above $3. Inflation expectations shift in a matter of days. Suddenly the market isn't debating disinflation or AI productivity. It's asking whether we're entering a new inflation shock.In Episode 177 of Facts vs. Feelings, Ryan Detrick, Chief Market Strategist at Carson Group, and Sonu Varghese, Chief Macro Strategist at Carson Group, walk through what's happening beneath the headlines. They explain how the Strait of Hormuz disruption is impacting oil flows, why gasoline prices move markets faster than geopolitics, and how rate-cut expectations shifted dramatically in just one week. The conversation moves from energy markets to ISM prices paid, AI-driven infrastructure demand, memory chip shortages, and what this means for inflation volatility in the years ahead.Key Takeaways:• Oil shock hits fast: Disruptions near the Strait of Hormuz pushed crude and gas prices sharply higher, immediately shifting inflation expectations• Rate cuts repriced: Markets quickly reduced expectations for multiple Fed cuts as inflation data and energy pressures mounted• Inflation volatility regime: Elevated base inflation combined with external shocks increases the risk of short-term price spikes• AI demand adds pressure: Infrastructure buildout and memory chip shortages are contributing to near-term pricing strength• Economic backdrop still stable: Leading indicators suggest the economy entered this period near trend, not in recession territory• Portfolio construction matters: We believe diversifying beyond traditional bonds remains critical in a more inflation-sensitive world.Jump to:0:02 — Setting The Stage: Problems Pile Up1:08 — Gas Price Surge Hits Home2:46 — Markets Sell Off And Tech's Role3:43 — Oil Jumps And Strait Of Hormuz Risk6:15 — Energy, Diesel, And Food Cost Pressures8:38 — Firsthand Gulf Perspective And LNG Shock12:35 — Portfolios For 3% Inflation World16:24 — Gold, Bonds, And Risk-Off Mechanics20:07 — Fewer Fed Cuts And PCE vs CPI24:55 — Small Caps, Rates, And Risk Appetite28:40 — Fed Independence And Politics Reality32:48 — Inflation-Volatility Regime, Not The 1970s36:48 — Diversify Your Diversifiers Strategy40:25 — VIX Spike And Geopolitics Playbook45:10 — Trend vs Recession: Leading Indicators49:22 — ISM PMI: Expansion But Price PressureConnect with Ryan:• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryandetrick/• X: https://x.com/RyanDetrickConnect with Sonu:• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sonu-varghese-phd/• X: https://x.com/sonusvarghese?lang=enQuestions about the show?

Steve Dennis and Michael LeBlanc preview their upcoming ShopTalk “Retail Rumble” appearance before diving into a wide-ranging and timely discussion on what leaders still get wrong about modern retail The episode opens with a sharp analysis of tariff turmoil following a Supreme Court ruling and mounting legal battles, as over 1,800 companies seek refunds. The hosts explore the implications of economic uncertainty for retailers already facing cautious consumer behavior. Recent earnings from TJX, Home Depot, and Lowe's suggest slowing momentum, with “flat” increasingly feeling like the new “up.” Meanwhile, Warby Parker continues its profitability progress, signaling that digitally native brands can mature successfully when they prioritize focus and operational discipline. Saks Global also makes progress on their journey through bankruptcy court. The macro backdrop adds additional complexity. Nvidia's staggering $120 billion in profits underscores the scale of AI's economic impact. At the same time, declining U.S. net migration could create headwinds for retail growth, given that roughly 1% of annual retail expansion typically comes from population growth. Mortgage rates dipping below 6% could offer stimulus to home-related categories. The discussion then pivots to a deeper strategic issue: how retailers need to adapt to an increasingly complex and demanding world. Steve highlights a striking insight from Walmart's earnings—while overall sales and e-commerce are surging, brick-and-mortar sales appear to be declining. This raises a fundamental question: are retailers measuring success correctly in a world where digital and physical channels are deeply intertwined and taking the bold action they must. About UsSteve Dennis is a strategic advisor and keynote speaker focused on growth and innovation, who has also been named one of the world's top retail influencers. He is the bestselling author of two books: Leaders Leap: Transforming Your Company at the Speed of Disruption and Remarkable Retail: How To Win & Keep Customers in the Age of Disruption.

Send a textSome days everything clicks; other days the weather flips, motivation vanishes, and your carefully planned routine blows up. We lean into that messy middle and ask a sharper question: what's truly in our control today, and how do we keep moving when life won't cooperate? From fitness setbacks and minor injuries to drained social batteries after heavy travel, we tease apart the emotional spiral that inconsistency triggers and show how to turn it into momentum.We start by naming the chaos—surprise weather, shifting emotions, and confidence swings that create a strange duality for anyone who values structure but craves variety. Then we get practical. If an injury limits one movement, train around it. If deadlines and travel spike stress, manage intensity and frequency rather than trying to erase stress altogether. You'll hear how “resilience banks” get filled during calm stretches, why micro-habits outperform bursts of effort, and how tracking progress anchors trust when motivation dips. We also look at routines that don't serve you and what it takes to make a real change when reminders and gadgets aren't enough.Along the way, we share personal experiments—taking yourself out to dinner on the road to recharge, intentionally stepping out of autopilot, and using small discomforts to build a habit of trying new things. We explore the paradox that inconsistency can be a teacher: when your default pattern stalls, a dose of variety can reignite growth, just like muscle confusion and a diverse diet build strength and health. The takeaway is simple and strong: consistency doesn't mean sameness; it means showing up with what's possible, today, and letting those deposits compound.If this resonates, tap follow, share the episode with a friend who's navigating change, and leave a quick review with one insight you're taking into your week. Your words help more listeners find the show and build their own resilience bank.

The Tánaiste has promised to explore safety upgrades on a notorious section of a Clare national secondary route. Residents of Darragh have been campaigning for a speed limit review and warning signage on a 2km stretch of the N68 between Darragh's North Cross and Bansha Cross. There have been 33 collisions officially recorded on the route, which have led to four fatalities since 2007 alone. Responding to Clare Sinn Féin TD Donna McGettigan in the Dáil, Tánaiste Simon Harris says he will press the Transport Minister on the matter.

Dr. Carla Finkielstein is an Associate Professor of Biological Sciences within the Biocomplexity Institute of Virginia Tech. She is also Director of the Integrated Cellular Response Laboratory at Virginia Tech, a Member of the Executive Committee of the Susan G. Komen Blue Ridge Board, and past member of the Board of Directors of the Virginia Breast Cancer Foundation. Carla is interested in understanding the mechanisms cells use to measure time to regulate cell division. She hypothesizes that cancer may occur when the clocks within cells signal to the cell to divide too frequently. Carla's goal is to understand how this process occurs so that we can fix the issue, detect the problem early to provide treatment, or prevent it from happening. Outside of science, Carla's favorite hobby is cooking. She loves making new and creative dishes that bring together different colors, flavors, and taste profiles. Cooking is relaxing for her, and it's fun to share dishes she creates with her friends and family. In addition, Carla enjoys reading a wide variety of books about history. Carla received her B.S. and Ph.D. both in Molecular Biology from the University of Buenos Aires in Argentina. Afterwards, she worked as a Research Associate at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center. Carla then conducted further postdoctoral research at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center before joining the faculty at Virginia Tech. Carla has been recognized for her research accomplishments with the L. Chely Award for Best PhD Thesis, a Howard Hughes Institute Fellowship for Research, an American Heart Association Postdoctoral Fellowship, the Karin Noss Scholarship for Research Advocacy in Breast Cancer, the Susan G. Komen Award for Junior Investigators, and a National Science Foundation CAREER Award. In our interview Carla shared more about her life and science.

Stewart Alsop sits down with Ulises Martins on the Crazy Wisdom podcast to explore how artificial intelligence is fundamentally disrupting professional careers, labor markets, and the pace of human adaptation itself. They discuss everything from Dario Amodei's concept of "technological adolescence" to the possibility that we're approaching a point where AI advancement accelerates beyond our ability to keep up, touching on topics ranging from the economics of software development and the future of warfare to generational differences in how people will respond to AI-driven change. Martins emphasizes that while we may not be able to predict exactly what's coming, we need to dramatically increase our efforts to learn and adapt—potentially doubling the time we invest in understanding AI—because this isn't optional change, it's disruption happening at an unprecedented speed. Connect with Ulises on Linkedin to follow his work in AI and generative technology.Timestamps00:00 — Stewart introduces Ulysses Martins, framing the conversation around accelerationism and the future of work.05:00 — Ulises uses the parent-child analogy to argue humans will no longer play the dominant role as AI surpasses us.10:00 — Both agree learning AI is non-negotiable, urging listeners to double their investment in staying current.15:00 — Discussion shifts to software as media, the collapsing cost of building products, and the risk of big players like Anthropic making your idea obsolete overnight.20:00 — Ulises raises ecology vs. cosmic ambition, questioning whether humanity should aim for civilizational-scale goals like the Dyson sphere.25:00 — Stewart's ESP32 hardware project illustrates AI's current blind spots beyond software, while both predict physical-world AI will arrive as a byproduct of bigger industrial goals.30:00 — Tesla's birthplace in Croatia sparks a reflection on human genius as luck versus deliberate investment, invoking the Apollo program as a model.35:00 — The US-China AI race is compared to the Cold War Space Race, with interdependency acting as a brake on outright conflict.40:00 — Drone warfare and AI reframe military power, making troop size irrelevant and potentially reducing total war.45:00 — Agile methodology and generational shifts are linked, asking how Gen Z's values will shape the AI era globally.50:00 — Argentine vs. American Zoomers are contrasted, with millennial expectations versus Gen Z's pragmatism explored.55:00 — Ulises closes urging everyone to enjoy the ride, taking the infinite stream of change one episode at a time.Key Insights1. The Death of Traditional Career Paths: The concept of professional careers as we know them—starting as a junior and progressively advancing—is becoming obsolete due to AI's rapid advancement. This applies far beyond just software and SaaS companies, extending to all industries as robots and AI systems gain capabilities that fundamentally disrupt labor markets. The question isn't whether we'll adapt, but whether humans can adapt fast enough to keep pace with exponential technological change.2. The Acceleration Imperative: People must dramatically increase their investment in learning about AI immediately. Whatever time you were previously dedicating to staying current with technology needs to be doubled or tripled. This isn't optional—it's comparable to the necessity of basic education. Unlike previous technological transitions where you had years to learn new frameworks or tools, the current pace demands immediate, intensive engagement or you risk becoming irrelevant.3. Software as Media and the Collapse of Development Economics: Software has become media—easily reproducible and increasingly commoditized through AI assistance. The fundamental economics of software development are collapsing because if building software requires dramatically fewer development hours, the value and price of that software must necessarily decrease. Entrepreneurs need a new evaluation framework that assesses the risk of their ideas being replicated by AI or absorbed by major players like Anthropic or OpenAI.4. The Parent-Child Analogy for AI Development: Humanity's relationship with AI will inevitably mirror that of parents with increasingly capable children. Initially, we understand and control what AI does, but as it advances, it will surpass human capabilities in most domains. Just as parents cannot control fully grown adult children who exceed their abilities, humans will need to reconcile with creating something superior to ourselves. Attempting to permanently control such systems may be both impossible and potentially pathologic.5. The Kardashev Scale and Civilizational Ambitions: AI represents a civilizational-level technology that should redirect humanity toward grander goals like capturing stellar energy through Dyson spheres and expanding beyond our solar system. The competition between China and the United States over AI mirrors the Apollo program's space race but with higher stakes—potentially making traditional concepts like money less relevant if we successfully crack general intelligence. This requires thinking beyond planetary constraints.6. The Changing Nature of Warfare and Geopolitics: AI and autonomous weapons systems are fundamentally changing warfare by making human soldiers less relevant, similar to how nuclear weapons reduced the importance of conventional military force. This shift may actually reduce bloody civilian casualties in conflicts between major powers, as drone warfare and AI-driven systems create new equilibriums. The geopolitical map may fracture into more sovereign states and city-states as centralized control becomes less effective.7. Generational Adaptation and Unpredictability: Different generations will respond uniquely to AI disruption based on their values and experiences. Generation Z, having grown up during the pandemic without traditional expectations, may adapt differently than millennials who experienced unmet expectations. However, we must remain humble about our predictive abilities—we're not good at forecasting technological change or its timing. The best approach is maintaining openness, trying to understand developments as they unfold, and accepting that we cannot consume all information in an era of unlimited AI-generated content.

Graeme McQueen, Head of Media Relations Manager with the Dublin Airport Authority, outlines the latest regarding flights to the Middle East.

Today's top stories, with context, in just 15 minutes.On today's podcast:1) President Trump said the bombing campaign against Iran will continue until its objectives are achieved, calling on the nation’s leaders to capitulate as a report indicated at least one top official in Tehran sought to resume nuclear talks with the US. Trump on Sunday re-confirmed the death of Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, and said the US and Israel had struck hundreds of targets in Iran including Revolutionary Guard facilities and air defenses. The US military’s Central Command announced Sunday that three US service members were killed and five “seriously wounded” during operations against the Islamic Republic, but gave no further details. Trump, who campaigned for the presidency on a pledge not to endanger American troops in the Middle East, called their deaths part of “the righteous mission” in a video posted on social media. “There will likely be more before it ends. That’s the way it is.”2) Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates are stepping up criticism of Iran’s regional attacks, while Gulf states consider coordinating efforts to halt what they’ve called “treacherous” and “heinous” actions by Tehran. Ministers from Gulf Cooperation Council nations held an extraodinary meeting on Sunday to review damages from Iran’s strikes on countries spanning from the UAE to Bahrain, Qatar and Oman, and consider necessary steps to restore stability and peace to the Middle East, according to a statement from state-run Saudi Press Agency. The states affirmed their right to respond to respond to Iran in “self-defense, either individually or collectively” and said GCC members “will take all necessary measures to defend their security and stability and to protect their territories, citizens, and residents, including the option to respond to the aggression.”3) Oil surged the most in four years as traders gauged the impact of the effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz triggered by US and Israeli strikes against Iran, with hostilities escalating across the region. Global benchmark Brent was more than 9% higher near $80 a barrel, after earlier rallying by as much as 13% to the highest since January 2025. Tanker traffic through the strait — the chokepoint off Iran’s coast that handles a fifth of the world’s oil and large volumes of gas — has largely halted, with a self-imposed pause in place by shipowners and traders as the conflict spreads.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On today's Good Morning Hospitality, A Skift Podcast, Michael Goldin, Brandreth Canaley, Jamie Lane and Wil Slickers revisit Vrbo's weather refund product now officially rolling out after earlier tests, and they unpack Airbnb's airport-pickup experiment, a sign of the company pushing into broader travel services beyond stays. They also look at why analysts say the industry needs a new way to read OTA results as traditional metrics fail to capture how distribution, search, and AI are reshaping performance. The conversation then turns to unrest in Mexico, where violence following the killing of a cartel leader has led major airlines — including American Airlines, United Airlines, Southwest Airlines, and Air Canada — to cancel or suspend flights to high-traffic leisure hubs like Puerto Vallarta, forcing waivers, rebookings, and travel flexibility as cancellations pile up. The episode wraps with a broader look at how product innovation, shifting performance metrics, and sudden geopolitical shocks are making travel planning and forecasting more complex for operators and consumers alike Connect with Airline Weekly LinkedIn: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/company/airline-weekly/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ X: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://x.com/Airline_Weekly/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/airlineweekly/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/skiftnews/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ WhatsApp: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaAL375LikgIXmNPYQ0L/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Subscribe to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@SkiftNews⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and never miss an update from the airline and travel industries.

A few weeks ago I had the absolute pleasure of jumping on the Teacher Takeaway podcast for a proper behaviour-nerd chat… and the second we wrapped, I knew I wanted you to hear it too.Because if you've ever walked into a lesson feeling like you're doing crowd control (and then gone home thinking, “Why am I like this?!”)… this one is for you.In this conversation, Aaron and I unpack the biggest misconceptions teachers have about “behaviour management” (spoiler: it's rarely about the behaviour), why so many of us feel wildly unprepared for the classroom management side of the job, and what actually makes the biggest difference when you're dealing with that constant drip-drip-drip of low-level disruption.We also get really practical, teaching presence, routines, attention signals, resetting a class mid-year (YES, you can), and why your nervous system is basically the hidden curriculum in your classroom.Let's roll the tape.

A Clare travel counsellor fears further disruption to flight schedules this week in light of the ongoing violence in the Middle East. All flights between Dublin Airport and Middle Eastern countries have been cancelled due to concerns around the US and Israel's war on Iran. Dubai International Airport, which is the world's busiest international hub, is closed for the third consecutive day today along with countless others across the region. Ennis travel counsellor Gearoid Mannion has been telling Clare FM's Seán Lyons we're "in a pause" of information at the moment but he's hopeful more clarity is on the way.

Israel has launched a new wave of strikes on Tehran after killing Iran's supreme leader and leaving the Islamic Republic grappling to rebuild its leadership. The U.S. and Israeli strikes, and Iranian retaliation, have sent shockwaves through sectors from shipping to air travel to oil. Inside Iran, some grieved for Khamenei while others have celebrated his death. Protests against the military action have also erupted across Pakistan and Iraq.

In their new book, Move Slow and Upgrade: The Power of Incremental Innovation, Evan Selinger, a professor in the Department of Philosophy at Rochester Institute of Technology and Albert Fox Cahn, founder in residence of the Surveillance Technology Oversight Project (STOP), argue that society is over-fixated on disruptive innovation over the kind of steady incrementalism that can deliver sustainable returns over longer time frames. They argue in favor of more careful deliberation and adopting what they call the “upgrader's mindset,” which should be applied whenever “disruptive changes would pose the greatest social risk.”
