DPRK:CYBERCRIME EMPLOYMENT SCAM. ANNIE FIXLER, FDD 1900

We've been talking about RFK Jr for years, and even dedicated an entire chapter to him in our 2023 book—and we're going to keep covering him. Since his power and influence has only grown, and since he's now in charge of America's entire health apparatus, there's no way to avoid it. This week we catch up on the last few months of MAHA. Derek looks into why he believes Kennedy's apparatus, despite claims of being about health, is really a cover for Project 2025's deregulatory agenda. Julian discusses a recent paper published in the New England Journal of Medicine by Covid contrarians Marty Makary and Vinay Prasad, who now both work under Kennedy. Finally, Matthew will contemplate Kennedy's crude remarks on autism through the lens of disability politics. Show Notes What Has All This Restaurant Food Done to My Gut?

AI's increasing presence in the legal field is raising significant concerns, particularly regarding the accuracy of information generated by these systems. Judges have reported a notable rise in AI-generated inaccuracies, with 23 instances of fake legal citations identified since May 1st. Legal data analyst Damien Chartland has documented 120 cases where courts recognized AI's hallucinations, which include fabricated legal quotes and non-existent authorities. This trend indicates a shift in responsibility, as lawyers are now accountable for these errors, contrasting with previous instances where self-represented individuals were primarily at fault. The implications are serious, with courts imposing fines exceeding $10,000 for AI misuse.The impact of automation extends beyond the legal sector, as a recent report highlights the potential for AI to exacerbate the gender employment gap. In high-income countries, the risk of women facing job automation has risen to 9.6%, while the risk for men is significantly lower at 3.5%. Jobs traditionally held by women, such as administrative roles, are particularly vulnerable to automation. Experts warn that without substantial changes in the labor market, women may face increased challenges in securing stable employment, as their work often shifts toward household tasks rather than formal employment.In the tech industry, Databricks has revealed that 80% of new databases created on their NEON platform were generated by AI agents, showcasing the growing influence of non-developers in coding. This trend emphasizes the need for companies to adapt to remain competitive, focusing on optimizing products for visibility to large language models. Meanwhile, Zoom's CEO has begun using an AI avatar for quarterly earnings calls, raising questions about authenticity and trust in corporate communication. The use of AI avatars could level the playing field for small business leaders but also introduces risks such as impersonation and misuse.Finally, Qualcomm has challenged Apple's claims regarding the performance of its in-house C1 modem, asserting that it falls short compared to Qualcomm's existing technology. A study found that Android devices powered by Qualcomm outperformed the iPhone 16e in both download and upload speeds, particularly in urban environments. Despite these challenges, Apple aims for full-stack control over its technology, and while the initial performance may not meet expectations, the company is known for its ability to iterate and improve rapidly. This ongoing competition highlights the dynamic nature of the tech industry and the importance of innovation.  Four things to know today  00:00 The Hidden Costs of AI: Legal Fines, Workforce Disruption, and the Rise of Unchecked Automation in the Enterprise05:51 New AI Integrations From OpenAI, Salesforce, and GoTo Push Deeper Into MSP Value Chain—Control or Be Commoditized09:01 From Efficiency to Deception?

After 20 years in automation and controls engineering, Danny Murphy received a call from a local community college that would bring his journey full circle—back to the kind of impact his own high school electronics teacher once had on him. Today, he's a nationally recognized educator, named A3's 2024 Educator of the Year, and he's redefining what hands-on learning can look like in a modern mechatronics lab.In this episode, Danny shares how early challenges in the classroom led him to move beyond textbook instruction and introduce student-designed projects with real-world relevance. From programming robots to serve cereal and slice cake to engineering capstone challenges with custom tooling, his students are learning by doing—and developing the kind of technical and creative skills that employers notice.What began as a simple effort to share classroom activity on LinkedIn and Instagram has evolved into a powerful tool for student opportunity. With over 30,000 followers on Instagram and 11,000 on LinkedIn, Danny's short, engaging videos have led to direct job offers for students, new partnerships with engineers and PhDs, and a growing network of industry engagement. The results are tangible: students getting hired, programs gaining visibility, and technical education reaching far beyond the classroom.Listen to learn:How to transition from lecture-based teaching to hands-on, student-driven projects that boost engagementWhy adding creative freedom to technical labs leads to better retention and real-world problem-solvingA simple video strategy on LinkedIn or Instagram that can directly lead to student job offersWhat educators should consider before posting student work onlineHow showcasing student work publicly can attract industry partners and grow your program's reputation3 Big Takeaways from this Episode:1. Student-designed projects increase both engagement and retention. Danny's students learn core concepts like user frames and loops by designing their own robotics challenges—whether it's scooping cereal or slicing cake. This creative freedom forces them to problem-solve, adapt, and truly understand the material, rather than just following instructions.2. Social media is a powerful tool for connecting students to real opportunities. By consistently posting short, authentic videos on LinkedIn and Instagram, Danny has helped at least six students get hired directly from what industry partners saw online. These platforms have become an extension of the classroom—offering visibility, credibility, and direct links to the workforce.3. Giving students real-world skills—and a teacher who believes in them—can change their lives. From project-based labs to job-ready training, Danny's classroom gives students more than technical knowledge; it gives them confidence, purpose, and a path forward. For many, it's the first time they've been truly seen for what they can do—and that recognition can be life-changing.Connect with Danny on Social Media:Instagram  |  LinkedInDon't forget to Ask Us Anything!We want to hear from you!

Drawing on their professional and academic experience, Ravin Jesuthasan and John Boudreau argue the current work “operating system” is increasingly unable to meet the needs of employees and employers. They join the Talent Angle to discuss their new book, Work Without Jobs: How to Reboot Your Organization's Work Operating System, and the opportunities for HR to shape a new vision for the future of work. Jesuthasan and Boudreau propose a new work “operating system” based on deconstructed work and deconstructed talent that would ultimately lead to a more human-centric approach to work. In their new vision for the future of work, they emphasize the importance of developing capabilities that will enable organizations to redesign and reinvent work and the employee experience. Ravin Jesuthasan is the global leader of Mercer's Transformation Services business.  He has led multiple research efforts on the global workforce, the emerging digital economy, the rise of artificial intelligence and the transformation of work.

Employment attorneys like to get together at conferences and routinely discuss ‘best practices' so that they can help employers comply with legal requirements, reduce the risk of lawsuits and promote positive work environments.  Well now, thanks to Donald Trump, Elon Musk and DOGE they have something new to discuss–‘worst practices.'  According to our guest, Attorney … Read More Read More

Reunited, Coco and Nish are finally back together in the studio to talk U turns, disability benefits, Brexit and… gimp masks? There's a lot of politics to catch up on including some big shifts from the Labour government.  First on Gaza - Keir Starmer and David Lammy changed tack with fierce criticism of the Israeli government. But critics argue that without an actual arms embargo talking tough with Israel is inadequate. So is it all too little, too late?  And in another change of direction, the Prime Minister has been listening to voters and his own disgruntled MPs on benefits. He signalled a rethink on one of Labour's most unpopular moves - cutting winter fuel payments for pensioners. But reforms of disability benefits are still on the cards so Nish heads to Westminster where disability activists gathered to lobby their MPs. With a major rebellion on the cards from Labour MPs, can Starmer be steered into a U-turn on this too? Employment minister Alison McGovern explains how she's going to get more young people into work and she has a message for Pod Save the UK's disillusioned Labour voters.  And did you think Brexit bollocks was in the rearview mirror? Well sorry - this week the Brexit undead returned with nonsense we thought was safely consigned to the dustbin of history.  Guests: Alison McGovern MP Ellie Chowns MP Nadia Whittome MP Meg Thomas, Disability Rights Campaigner  Audio Credits: Parliament TV BBC GB News Useful Links:  https://www.disabilityrightsuk.org/news/mass-lobby-against-benefit-cuts-21st-may-be-there Pod Save the UK is a Reduced Listening production for Crooked Media.

Gregory Daco and Peter Tchir break down the employment market after the latest Jobless Claims report. “There is caution” from employers, Gregory argues: companies combing through carefully for candidates and trying to avoid raising inflation pressures by upping wages. Peter thinks weakness will show “in the next couple months.” While he's “a little bit nervous,” he doesn't foresee a recession yet.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Show Notes: Bonni Theriault initially went to business school and worked as a business analyst at McKinsey for a few years, where she worked with consumer products for companies and marketing. After working at Pepperidge Farm for a couple of years, she decided to build her own company and joined forces with a woman who was the head of advertising at Campbell Soup, and together they launched a brand strategy company where they worked for companies like Cadbury Schweppes, Johnson and Johnson, and Stryker. From Marketing to Coaching to Global Emergency Care After 13 years at the company, Bonni found herself tired of constantly pitching to employers and sought coaching roles. She had previously worked closely with the McKinsey assessment team, coaching candidates and helping them improve their interview skills. And so, with the experience under her belt, she returned to McKinsey as a professional development manager. When her oldest son turned 14, she took two years off to spend more time with her children and also volunteered with Global Emergency Care, an organization that trains emergency medicine nurses in Uganda. She worked with Global Emergency Care's marketing and fundraising for two years on a volunteer basis. The Role of Chief Partnerships Officer at Generation When Bonni decided to return to work, she wanted to stay in the social sector but was offered a position at McKinsey. She worked there until an opportunity at Generation was presented. Generation is an independent non-profit that works with unemployed individuals. Bonni has now worked there for seven years. Bonni explains that her responsibility as chief partnerships officer includes global fundraising and employer partnerships for Generation, a company operating in 17 countries worldwide. They train across 40 different professions, based on labor dynamics in each country. They conduct extensive research before starting a training program to identify job vacancies and bring learners from historically underrepresented groups, and they focus on employment in five different industries: tech, green jobs, customer service and sales, skilled trades, and healthcare. They also teach behavioral skills and the importance of having a growth mindset.  The Impact of AI in Job Forecasting and Training AI has been a topic of interest for Generation, as it impacts the skills needed to train learners in specific roles. Bonni explains that they have analyzed various roles, including entry-level roles, which may go away entirely or be significantly impacted by AI, and roles that might have a different set of skills. Jobs such as solar panel installation or healthcare, are likely to be more resilient over time in the face of AI. They are also considering more jobs in the data center technician category, where tech roles are more hands-on and dealing with equipment than providing coding or IT support. How Generation Is Using AI The organization is using AI to deliver training to learners and alumni, ensuring they have the necessary skills for their jobs. They have created AI modules for learners and alumni to help them upskill and remain relevant in their work. AI is also used to help develop the curriculum, with chat bots helping learners answer first-line questions and focusing on more complex material. This helps streamline the curriculum creation process, as it often involves research and talking to subject matter experts. Operational efficiencies are also being used to improve efficiency and effectiveness. Working as a Professional Development Manager  The conversation turns back to Bonni's as a professional development manager at McKinsey. She mentions that a lot of time was spent negotiating with partners and consultants to find the right balance between professional growth and client needs. She built relationships of trust between consultants and partners to influence decisions in a way that was best for everyone involved. She also focused on performance evaluation, helping people understand their strengths and areas for improvement, and helping them find ways to build skills through studies, formalized training, coaching, or mentorship.  Marketing Goldfish and Chocolate Bonni shares her experience working on marketing Goldfish, a product that was initially marketed as a snack for adults drinking beer in bars but later was marketed to moms as an appealing snack for children. She also discusses her experience working with Cadbury, a chocolate brand that had over 150 chocolate brands worldwide. She worked on a brand architecture project to help consolidate these brands and increase their advertising dollars. She was sent boxes of chocolate bars from around the world to analyze packaging and brand identity and helped create seven mega brands for Cadbury, which led to a significant increase in their chocolate market share. Influential Harvard Courses and Professors Bonni mentions a course taught by Professor Dominguez where he focused on critical thinking. He presented different perspectives on events, presenting different sides as the truth. This skill has been passed down through her life and has become essential in today's world. Bonni wishes more classes would take this approach, as it helps students analyze and think critically about various situations and perspectives. Bonni's experiences with Professor Dominguez's course and her critical thinking skills have shaped her life and career.

This week, we're covering the U.S. Department of Labor's (DOL's) decision to halt enforcement of the Biden-era independent contractor rule, the upcoming EEO-1 reporting season (starting on May 20), and New York State's new labor law amendment, reducing damages for first-time frequency-of-pay violations.­ DOL Halts Enforcement of Independent Contractor Rule The DOL will no longer enforce the Biden-era independent contractor rule, which sought to tighten the criteria under which a hired worker can be considered an independent contractor for purposes of the Fair Labor Standards Act. The agency will now revert to the less stringent "economic realities" test. EEO-1 Reporting Begins Soon The proposed 2024 EEO-1 Component 1 data collection season is scheduled to begin on May 20, with a deadline to file by June 24. As expected, Component 2 pay data collection will not be required this year or in the coming years. New York Amends Labor Law to Limit Damages in Frequency-of-Pay Lawsuits New York Governor Kathy Hochul signed into law a budget bill that includes an amendment to the New York Labor Law that dramatically limits the relief employees can seek for first-time violations of frequency-of-pay provisions.  Visit our site for this week's Other Highlights and links: https://www.ebglaw.com/eltw390 Subscribe to #WorkforceWednesday: https://www.ebglaw.com/subscribe/ Visit http://www.EmploymentLawThisWeek.com This podcast is presented by Epstein Becker & Green, P.C.

For far too long, healthcare performance indicators have centred on inputs—like funding and infrastructure—or processes—like hospital admissions or waiting times—without adequately capturing the experiences and outcomes of the people receiving care. The OECD's PaRIS Survey upends that dynamic, shining a light on how older people with chronic conditions feel about their care, how healthy they really feel, and how their everyday lives are affected. The latest figures are now out: with over 107K patients in over 1800 primary care practices across 19 countries, the survey highlights that living longer doesn't always mean living better, especially if care experiences are poor and chronic conditions aren't managed in a way that reflects patients needs. In this episode of the Behind the Numbers podcast, our host Ashley Ward is joined by OECD Health Economists Frederico Guanais and Michael van den Berg to explore the work behind this innovative survey. Learn how policymakers, healthcare providers, and patients themselves can use these data to drive more people-centred healthcare.

Rachel Cohen, a former Skadden associate, joins Ben and Nate to discuss how Big Law is responding to recent executive orders aimed at major firms. They examine how the orders challenge the legal system, why firms are staying quiet, and the resistance staged by associates across the industry. Later, Ben and Nate highlight Crushing 1L, the Demon's new program for first-year law students. They also host another round of the Personal Statement Gong Show. And What's the Deal With St. Thomas University? 0:29 – Big Law Showdown with Rachel Cohen - Rachel Cohen, a Harvard Law graduate and former Skadden associate, made headlines after resigning to protest Big Law's weak response to Trump-era executive orders. She criticized top firms for caving to political pressure in an open letter and interview. Above the Law's “Big Law Spine Index” shows that of the top fifty firms, the largest firms, only five have taken a stand to resist the executive orders from the Trump administration. One reason, she noted, is that many firms keep minimal cash reserves, leaving them financially exposed to government backlash.39:53 – Crushing 1L: Get Ahead Before Day One - LSAT Demon's Crushing 1L program is now available to all paying subscribers. It introduces essential first-year concepts and vocabulary to prepare students to hit the ground running. Given the potential impact that first-semester grades have on career outcomes, it is more important than ever for students to start law school on the right foot. 47:43 – Tips from a Departing Demon: Don't Go - Scoring high on the LSAT doesn't mean law school is the right path. A departing student explains why law school wasn't the right choice for her. The Demon team isn't here to sell you on law school. They want you to succeed, whether that's in law or elsewhere. 52:36 – Personal Statement Gong Show - Greta is the next contestant in the Personal Statement Gong Show. This is the segment where Ben and Nate will read your personal statement, but as soon as they spot a problem, they hit the gong and stop reading. The current record is five lines, held by Jeremiah. 1:14:52 – What's the Deal With… St. Thomas University? - This unranked law school offers a “summer conditional program” that promises admission if you finish in the top 15%, but you'll be paying full price for that gamble. Employment outcomes are dismal—around 30% of graduates are underemployed—and most scholarships are conditional and frequently reduced. With a median salary of $50,000 and potential debt over $300,000, the hosts' verdict is clear: don't go to St. Thomas University's law school.1:18:54 - Word of the Week - Rigmarole - “Kashmir: From Legal Rigmarole to a Solution.”
