Apparently, you can't keep a good grifter down, as Billy McFarland's seven-figure Fyre Fest deal collapsed, so he's hawking the brand on eBay like a box of junk. Meanwhile, Indeed and Glassdoor are laying off over 1,000 workers, probably to pay for the AI that's jacking up our electric bills. Speaking of AI, a Tesla robotaxi crashed itself while Elon Musk's Grok chatbot went full Nazi, which is of course being installed in Teslas "next week." Fittingly, X CEO Linda Yaccarino stepped down and promptly lost her blue check. To cap off the dystopian news, the DOJ is targeting an anti-ICE app developer, the 'click-to-cancel' rule is dead, and you can hack McDonald's with the password ‘123456'. The future is now, and it's dumber than we ever imagined.On the media front, Murderbot gets a second season, and the Jim Henson and The Beach Boys documentaries are must-sees. Sadly, Netflix canceled The Residence. We also got trailers for Neuromancer, Project Hail Mary, and Edgar Wright's The Running Man. Speaking of building the future, we took a deep dive into AI-assisted coding using tools like Cursor, building a functional app in hours with zero original code. It's a stark reminder that while the "free lunch" of AI development is ending, the future for junior coders is already cooked. This glorious new world also includes playing every retro game ever on your phone, thanks to emulators like Delta and PPSSPP and the Backbone controller, which led to a nostalgic dive into the classic soundtracks of Mega Man 2 and Wipeout XL. This all culminated in a personal victory: conquering all 4,678 boards in Mahjong Titan+, freeing us from our porcelain thrones.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Head over to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use the code "GOG" for 20% off.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

Law professor Daniel Ho says that the law is ripe for AI innovation, but a lot is at stake. Naive application of AI can lead to rampant hallucinations in over 80 percent of legal queries, so much research remains to be done in the field. Ho tells how California counties recently used AI to find and redact racist property covenants from their laws—a task predicted to take years, reduced to days. AI can be quite good at removing “regulatory sludge,” Ho tells host Russ Altman in teasing the expanding promise of AI in the law in this episode of Stanford Engineering's The Future of Everything podcastHave a question for Russ?

How do you plan for the scientific discoveries of the future? That's the question Chancellor Rachel Reeves had to try to answer with this week's Spending Review. She allocated more than 22 billion pounds a year by 2029/30 for research and development which was described as a boost for science. Robin Bisson, UK News Editor for news website Research Professional News, and Dr Alicia Greated, Executive Director at the charity Campaign for Science and Engineering in the UK, explain where the money will go.As the UN's Ocean Conference continues in Nice, France, we get the latest developments from Science and Climate Correspondent Esme Stallard, before diving into a kelp forest in our own UK waters with reporter Graihagh Jackson. It's hoped that encouraging the seaweed could help sequester carbon dioxide. We hear about the dinosaur discovery that's rewriting the evolutionary story of the Tyrannosaurus Rex with University of Calgary palaeontologists Professor Darla Zelenitsky and Jared Voris.And journalist Caroline Steel is in the studio with her round up of science stories straight from the researcher's labs.

What does it take to build a successful financial planning firm—while living off the grid in a cabin-caboose hybrid?Ryan Sullivan of Off the Beaten Path Financial did just that. After leaving a career in engineering that lacked the flexibility and impact he wanted, a chance meeting led him to financial planning. Despite industry warnings, he launched his RIA while still working full-time.He and his wife bought 20 acres in remote Montana, where their home—half log cabin, half 1890s train caboose—is only accessible by snowmobile in winter. Ryan commuted up to four hours a day while building his firm on nights and weekends.Early growth was slow—until he hired a coach, shifted away from rigid service models, and focused on project-based planning for architects and engineers. His technical mindset became his advantage, and the business took off.In January 2025, he earned more than in the previous two years combined. Now, he runs his firm fully off-grid, embracing the lifestyle and clients that make it truly off the beaten path.Ryan Socialhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ryan-sullivan-pe/

Flight 44: If it moves on wheels at Disneyland, it was probably designed by 93-year old Disney Legend and Thea Lifetime Achievement recipient, Bob Gurr.   Walt Disney was so impressed with his knowledge and skill, that he invited Bob Gurr to join WED Enterprises to design the very first Autopia cars that debuted at Disneyland in 1955. Over the past 74 years, Bob has made transportation magic worldwide, developing such legendary Disneyland ride vehicles as the Monorail, the Flying Saucers, the Haunted Mansion “Doom Buggies," the Submarine Voyage sub fleet, the PeopleMover, and the Matterhorn Bobsleds. After “retiring” in 1981, Bob went on to co-found Sequoia Creative and design the massive King Kong animatronic for Universal Studios Hollywood. He designed the flying spaceship for the 1984 Olympics opening ceremonies, effects for The Jacksons' Victory tour, and dinosaurs for Steven Spielberg's “Jurassic Park.” Plan now to join us as Bob climbs aboard a vehicle with no wheels for a journey across ten decades on one of the most incredible time travel adventures we've ever had!

Government. The Big G. We like to imagine the free market and the invisible hand as being independent from political influence. But Nobel laureate, Simon Johnson, says that influence has been there since the birth of economics. Call it political economy. Call it government and business. Call it our big topic each Wednesday through Labor Day. We're kicking off another semester of Planet Money Summer School asking the biggest question: Why are some nations rich and others poor? With stories from India, New York City and Peru, we look at the ways in which government bureaucracy can help make or break an economy.

Artificial intelligence is transforming our world — and the energy sector. Earlier this year, the International Energy Agency (IEA) released a comprehensive report examining both AI's projected energy demands and how it  might reshape energy systems. But while headlines often raise alarms around electricity demand growth, the reality is more nuanced and complex. While data centers currently account for just 1.5% of global electricity use, that share is expected to double by 2030, driven largely by the growth of AI. In some regions, particularly in the US, data centers could account for nearly half of all electricity demand growth in the coming years. So how should we understand the relationship between AI and energy? What does this mean for power systems around the world? Is artificial intelligence a friend or foe to the clean energy transition? This week, Jason Bordoff speaks with Laura Cozzi, about the IEA's findings on AI's energy demands. Laura is the chief energy modeler at the International Energy Agency, and its director of sustainability, technology, and outlooks. She oversees the IEA's analytical work on energy, climate, and economic modeling, and led the team that produced the agency's report on artificial intelligence and energy.

In this episode of Gradient Dissent, Lukas Biewald talks with Jarek Kutylowski, CEO and founder of DeepL, an AI-powered translation company. Jarek shares DeepL's journey from launching neural machine translation in 2017 to building custom data centers and how small teams can not only take on big players like Google Translate but win.They dive into what makes translation so difficult for AI, why high-quality translations still require human context, and how DeepL tailors models for enterprise use cases. They also discuss the evolution of speech translation, compute infrastructure, training on curated multilingual datasets, hallucinations in models, and why DeepL avoids fine-tuning for each individual customer. It's a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at one of the most advanced real-world applications of deep learning.Timestamps: [00:00:00] Introducing Jarek and DeepL's mission [00:01:46] Competing with Google Translate & LLMs [00:04:14] Pretraining vs. proprietary model strategy [00:06:47] Building GPU data centers in 2017 [00:08:09] The value of curated bilingual and monolingual data [00:09:30] How DeepL measures translation quality [00:12:27] Personalization and enterprise-specific tuning[00:14:04] Why translation demand is growing [00:16:16] ROI of incremental quality gains [00:18:20] The role of human translators in the future [00:22:48] Hallucinations in translation models [00:24:05] DeepL's work on speech translation [00:28:22] The broader impact of global communication [00:30:32] Handling smaller languages and language pairs [00:32:25] Multi-language model consolidation [00:35:28] Engineering infrastructure for large-scale inference [00:39:23] Adapting to evolving LLM landscape & enterprise needs

Welcome to "Dream State Reality Engineering" - a revolutionary 8-hour deep sleep meditation designed to transform how you manifest while you sleep. Tonight, you're not just going to sleep - you're going to become a conscious architect of your reality through the extraordinary power of your dream state. What if your sleeping mind could actively solve your challenges, design your perfect circumstances, and construct the exact reality you desire? This is what happens when you become a reality engineer in your dreams. Most people don't realize that during sleep, your consciousness enters a state where the rigid boundaries of physical reality dissolve. In this fluid dream state, the quantum field becomes directly accessible to your awareness. Your dreams aren't random neural firings - they're powerful gateways where you can actively shape the blueprint of your waking life.Imagine having access to a sophisticated reality engineering laboratory that operates while you sleep, continuously working to manifest your desires even as your conscious mind rests. This is exactly what we'll be establishing tonight. What makes dream state reality engineering so powerful is that it bypasses the limitations and doubts of your waking mind. Your subconscious - which controls 95% of your reality creation - becomes directly programmable. Rather than fighting against your subconscious programming, you'll be re-configuring it at its source. People who have used this dream engineering process report extraordinary shifts: sudden inspirations that lead to financial breakthroughs, unexpected opportunities appearing as if out of nowhere, challenging situations resolving themselves mysteriously, and an overall acceleration of their manifestation abilities. Tonight, we're going to install a complete reality engineering system in your dream consciousness. You'll receive the exact tools, commands, and processes needed to transform your dream state into a powerful manifestation laboratory. Even if you don't remember your dreams, this system will operate autonomously, continuously engineering your ideal reality while you sleep peacefully. Set the intention now to become a master reality engineer in your dream state. Allow your consciousness to open fully to this transformation. Whether you fall asleep in the first few minutes or listen longer, the complete programming will be installed in your subconscious mind, working powerfully night after night to engineer your perfect reality.

Please enjoy this encore of Career Notes. Ground Labs' Head of Engineering, Swati Shekhar, shares her circuitous route from and back to engineering. Always being interested in leveraging the tools available to solve problems, Swati talks about how she found her place in engineering. She mentions how she had her first real experience with a computer when she was 17 in her first year at college. Aside from being one of 30 young women in a sea of 500 young men there, Swati described it as a "good culture shock because anything that takes you out of your comfort zone actually makes you learn and grow." She notes that challenges experienced in life increase your risk appetite so significantly. Swati advises those looking to make a job change to be certain of what is attracting them and to be yourself. We thank Swati for sharing her story with us. Learn more about your ad choices.

Have Democrats ceded leadership in space policy? That’s what Mary Guenther believes. She’s the Director of Space Policy at the Progressive Policy Institute and the author of an editorial that claims Democrats have ceded their leadership. She traces the party’s arc from Obama-era reforms to recent data showing that Democrats introduced a third fewer space bills than Republicans in recent years, and proposes ways that the party should embrace this forward-looking field while tying it to their core issues of job creation, supply chains, and climate science.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
