Amjad Masad set out more than a decade ago to pursue the dream of unleashing 1B software creators around the world. With millions of Replit users pre-ChatGPT, that vision was already becoming a reality. Turbocharged by LLMs, the vision of enabling anyone to code—from 12-year-olds in India to knowledge workers in the U.S.—seems less and less radical. In this episode, Amjad explains how an explosion in the developer population could change the economy, society and more.

This week Jim O'Shaughnessy (Website | X) joins Humans On The Loop to carry our first on-record conversation on Infinite Loops into bold new terrains! Jim is one of the most renowned investors and asset managers of all the time and the author of several hugely best-selling and influential books on investing, including What Works on Wall Street, Invest Like The Best, and Predicting The Markets of Tomorrow. He also founded the first online investment advisor and holds the patent for “ the origination and fulfillment of stock investment portfolios over a worldwide computer network.” (You heard right!)After decades of success in wealth management, he left his company in the care of his son Patrick and launched O'Shaughnessy Ventures — a firm that combines “Jim's deeply rooted interest in all things art, science, investing and tech with his long-held desire to establish positive sum scenarios designed to help promising creators and their inspiring ideas succeed, regardless of age, location, job history or level of education.”Last fall when I was on his show, we played a game of mind-jazz about “how we can live curious, collaborative and fulfilling lives in our deeply weird, complex, probabilistic world.” For this discussion, I wanted to rotate the axis of our exploration and learn how Jim's personal experiences have contributed to the frame through which he engages life. Sweeping across scales from candid autobiography to team inquiry into some of the wickedest problems — like how we foster meaningful relationships and balance achievement with humility — we covered a lot of new ground.I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did and benefit from a fresh take on the mind — and heart — of one of the most exemplary mavericks I know.If you find value in this conversation, please like and subscribe (YouTube | Apple Podcasts | Spotify), leave a comment, and consider supporting my mission to help us cultivate wisdom in an age of magical technologies.

In this episode, we explore the intricate world of autism research with Jill Escher, a dedicated philanthropist, lawyer, and parent to two Autistic young adults. Jill's journey into Autism advocacy was sparked by her children's diagnoses, with no prior family history, leading her to significant roles like president of the National Council on Severe Autism and leadership at the Autism Society in the San Francisco Bay Area. Through the Escher Fund for Autism, she examines the causes beyond genetics, investigating how environmental and biological factors might alter gene expression, contributing to Autism's heritability.Jill challenges the conventional genetic focus in Autism research, arguing that it fails to explain the increasing prevalence of Autism. She delves into complex topics like epigenetics and transcriptional regulation, proposing these might unlock the heritability puzzle of Autism. Her research includes looking at how factors like general anesthesia can affect future generations. Escher also discusses the hurdles in Autism research, including scientific dogma and the influence of the neurodiversity movement, urging for a more comprehensive approach to address what she sees as a looming national health crisis.Jill Escher https://www.jillescher.comHarvard Presentation: https://harvard.zoom.us/rec/play/n1wZBC2hwCOid8oKlQJLJECY7cGS0YeQMNlaSaFqu2Iybo8ADCEzrdqP01Q3lXTBRX73GHgWdYZMg5RT.Vwh6LCxdweMaleLf?canPlayFromShare=true&from=share_recording_detail&startTime=1733338808000&componentName=rec-play&originRequestUrl=https%3A%2F%2Fharvard.zoom.us%2Frec%2Fshare%2Fy3NWE-vbqRQB-lnpZ33Gk7HsbiTJPzi4xjXdCDudRMYtdNFYYC-URWaix3xiYe1e.22MUxTE70Dl-Yz62%3FstartTime%3D1733338808000Other ResourcesAutism and the Womb https://youtu.be/NOVp4mIrougThe Relationship of the Placenta, Womb, and Development https://youtu.be/Mj5h5DOMcRw0:00 Intro1:18 Jill's Journey into Autism4:25 Jill's Family & Autism7:19 Research & Advocacy in Autism10:19 Genetic & Heritability Explanation13:05 Non-Genetic Factors; Epigenetics21:08 Anesthesia; Germ Cell; Proliferation26:29 Early Brain Development; Gene Expression; RNA; Molecular level27:56 Research needs; Genetics & Dead End data; Society & Preparation of Prevalence33:57 Rates of Autism & Future (& Current) Emergency38:16 Vaccination41:25 Migration; Excitation/Inhibition Imbalance; Functional Connectivity48:02 Barriers in Autism; Jill's Contact Information53:33 Reviews/RatingsX: https://x.com/rps47586Hopp: https://www.hopp.bio/fromthespectrumYT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGxEzLKXkjppo3nqmpXpzuAemail: info.fromthespectrum@gmail.com

Über den Wolken und durch die Jahrhunderte: Meike Feßmann, Julia Schröder und Paul Jandl diskutierten vier auf der SWR Bestenliste im Februar verzeichnete Werke, die von berauschenden und bedrückenden Reisen handeln. Zunächst ging es um den mit dem Booker Prize ausgezeichneten Roman „Umlaufbahnen“ von Samantha Harvey in der deutschen Fassung von Julia Wolf, in dem sechs Astronauten auf einer Raumstation durchs Weltall schweben und ihr Verhältnis zur bedrohten Mutter Erde neu justieren (Platz 4). Besprochen wurde in der ausverkauften Mediathek in Bühl Julia Schochs Abschluss ihrer Trilogie, die mit „Biographie einer Frau“ überschrieben ist und auf Platz 3 der Februar-Bestenliste steht: Nach „Das Vorkommnis“ und „Das Liebespaar des Jahrhunderts“ heißt der dritte Teil der autofiktionalen Romanreihe „Wild nach einem wilden Traum“, in welchem es um die Erinnerung an eine Affäre und die Entscheidung der Erzählerin geht, Schriftstellerin zu werden. Auf Platz 2 wird auf der Bestenliste im Februar der neue und vieldiskutierte Roman von Jonas Lüscher gelistet: „Verzauberte Vorbestimmung“ heißt das Werk, das einerseits ein Post-Covid-Roman ist und andererseits das angespannte Verhältnis von Mensch und Maschine in unterschiedlichsten Epochen reflektiert. Der Spitzenreiter der Bestenliste im Februar ist der neue Roman „Wackelkontakt“ von Wolf Haas. Darin wird zunächst von einem Trauerredner namens Franz Escher erzählt, der auf einen Elektriker wartet und einen Roman über einen Mafioso liest. Schon bald geht es aber auch um einen Mann im Zeugenschutzprogramm, der sich die Zeit mit einem Buch vertreibt, in dem wiederum der Trauerredner Escher auf den Elektriker wartet. Der Text ist ein Prosa-Labyrinth, das an die unmöglichen und unendlichen Gemälde des niederländischen Grafikers M.C. Escher erinnert. Jury und Publikum waren gleichermaßen amüsiert. Aus den vier Büchern lasen Isabelle Demey und Dominik Eisele. Durch den Abend führte Carsten Otte.

The Terrifying Real World Implications of Squid Game

Squid Game is full of disturbing life or death situations, but “Red Light, Green Light” might be the one closest to our real world…and all the problems that come along with that.“Red light! Green light!” Bang! You're dead! Wait just a minute, we don't remember this game being played this way!But that's how it goes in the first episode of Netflix's wildly acclaimed Squid Game, in which (un)lucky participants take part in a lethal version of a childhood favorite, refereed by a disturbing animatronic little girl who wields the power of life and death via sniper fire.And considering that the robot in question, or, at least her design (if not actual functionality) actually exists, we have to ask: is it reasonable to assume that this kind of highly sensitive and lethal motion sensing already exists in the real world? There's only one way to find out, and that's to let Hakeem and Tamara work their magic! Get ready for a spirited discussion covering everything from facial recognition technology, radar guns, animatronics, and the pitfalls of capitalism run wild! Okay, maybe not that last part…SUGGESTED VIEWING This episode of Does it Fly? is based solely on the first season of Netflix's incredible (and disturbing) Squid Game series, but season two is now also streaming. While we can't say enough good things about Squid Game in general and suggest you watch it all, for the purposes of this episode, you can get away with just watching the first episode of the season one, appropriately titled “Red Light, Green Light.” Trust us, you'll end up watching the rest of the series.There's also the non-lethal, somewhat baffling reality show version, Squid Game: The Challenge, which we reference in this episode, that has its own version: “Green Light, Red Light.” Your mileage, of course, may vary.FURTHER READING Do you want to delve a little deeper into the facts, concepts, and stories Hakeem and Tamara referenced in today's episode? Of course you do! Flame Throwing Car AlarmsJust in case you're worried about having your speakers stolen or something, you can read more about this lethal deterrent right here. Don't worry, it's not actually coming to a neighborhood near you, but you can't fault these folks for trying! Or…maybe you can. Or should.Building Your Own Young-hee (Please do not do this)Three of the key pieces of technology that might make something as terrifying as Young-hee possible are biometric face scanners (you know and love them from airports!), radar guns (you know and hate them from that speeding ticket we totally know you didn't actually deserve), and transducers (you might not know you love them, but technically musical instruments are are part of the transducer family, so that's just one of many reasons to love them!).The Real Young-heeOK, the real one hasn't murdered anybody.

Parmita Mishra is a computational biologist and the founder & CEO of Precigenetics, a company aiming to become a rocket to precision medicine. Parmita is deeply knowledgeable about cutting-edge biology, particularly epigenetics — how behavior and environment can affect gene function without altering genetic code. Her passion for advancing our understanding of diseases is inspiring (and contagious: OSV is an investor in Parmita's company!) In our conversation, Parmita and I discuss everything from the curious case of male baldness to how her parents have saved 50,000 lives.  I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.

 A true legend and pioneering figure of techno, US sound architect and Geophone label owner Mike Parker breaks in on the RYC waves with a very special set full with his idiosyncratically dark, obsessive, inch-perfectly chiselled 4x4 wares. Before Boiler Room and co. were even a thing, a pioneering platform going by the name of Studio R° used to broadcast techno sets by prominent artists from a secret location in Berlin. This iconic, vinyl-only mix is Parker's Studio R° set from 2013, now fully remastered for your listening pleasure. Building atmospheres unlike any other, brooding and transcending in equal measure, Parker has laid the foundation to an exceptionally rich body of work. Master of the industrial vocab, peeping towards Detroit but with his defining spin on the early days genre, Parker entices us down the path of steely monumentality and laser-precise mind control. Just as typically mazy, his present mix conjures up all traits of quality Parker material: 909-powered propulsion, enslaving acid whorls, Escher-like fractals. Wild, wild ride ahead.

As Lux's de-facto games master, Danny also devises their Riskgames: strategic simulations that immerse players in complex scenarios reflecting real-world challenges and dynamics. These games – whose players include senators, major generals, congressmen and, think-tank CEOs – include scenarios like ‘Hamptons at the Cross-Roads' (that deals with climate change and maritime security) and ‘Powering Up' (that deals with China's global EV dominance). Danny and I discuss the origins of Riskgaming and the lessons he's learned in high-stakes games with tech founders and government officials.

Machines that build machines. It's a curious paradox. Whenever you consider something that builds itself, physically, it could conjure thoughts of an infinity loop or an M.C. Escher painting. The never-ending loop of technology. The extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography machine, a marvel of modern engineering, etches patterns onto silicon wafers with unparalleled precision, giving birth to the microchips that power our world. A machine so advanced, so intricate, that it holds the power to create the very building blocks of our digital age. It gives birth to the state of the art in semiconductors. Indeed, the future pulled forward to today. As we marvel at the bleeding edge of technology, we often overlook the humble components that make it all possible. Inside every EUV lithography machine, a symphony of legacy technologies plays out, from power management diodes to analog circuits. These unsung heroes, though less glamorous than their cutting-edge counterparts, are the backbone of innovation. In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the world has witnessed the fragility of global semiconductor supply chains. Black swan events have exposed the dangers of over-reliance on a single source, leading to shortages that ripple across industries. It is a stark reminder that the latest and greatest cannot exist without the tried and true. [pause] As we navigate this era of rapid technological advancement, let us not forget the importance of balance. The yin and yang of old and new, of leading and lagging-edge, are forever intertwined in the dance of progress. The lead guitar and vocals may provide the memorable moments in your favorite songs, but have you ever heard a song without the drums? Modern architecture can inspire and awe, but ever tried to build a house without a concrete foundation?  Trips to the zoo to visit the tigers provide moments of wonder; what would happen if the protective glass was removed? Remember that next time you marvel at the latest gadget or gizmo. Take a moment to appreciate the unassuming components that make it all possible. For in the grand scheme of innovation, every piece of the puzzle matters, no matter how small, outdated, or seemingly invisible.   How does Microchip Technology provide the critical components for producing Microchip Technology?   Links from the episode:     Guests:  Leon Gross

As a former quant with six grandkids, my spidey-senses started tingling as soon as I heard about Ben Orlin's mission to make math fun. A native of St.Paul, Ben is a math educator and popularizer who is known for his “Math With Bad Drawing” blog and book series. Today's conversation revolves around his excellent, original new book Math for English Majors: A Human Take on the Universal Language, which reframes math as a language, complete with nouns, verbs and grammar. Like any mathematician worth his salt, Ben loves games, which he sees as ‘puzzle engines'. No wonder then that our conversation meandered and unfolded like a satisfying puzzle, touching upon rich concepts. We discussed making sense of sampling through fantasy towns where 70% of inhabitants are lawyers (not a town I'd like to be in), threw in a bit of Lewis Carroll to discuss the assumptions built into propositional logic (sometimes it really is turtles all the way down) and pitied the Welsh kids learning how to count (keep listening to know what that means). I hope you enjoy our conversation as much as I did!

Imagine you're in a field with someone whose language you don't speak. A rabbit scurries by. The other person says "Gavagai!" You probably assumed they meant "rabbit" but they could have meant something else, like "scurrying" or even "lo! an undetatched rabbit-part!" In this episode, your hosts Lauren Gawne and Gretchen McCulloch get enthusiastic about how we manage to understand each other when we're learning new words, inspired by the famous "Gavagai" thought experiment from the philosopher of language VWO Quine. We talk about how children have a whole object assumption when learning language, and how linguists go about learning languages that are new to them through either translating standardized cross-linguistic wordlists known as Swadesh lists or staying monolingual and acting out concepts. We also talk about when our baseline assumptions are challenged, such as in categorizing kangaroos and wallabies by their hopping rather than their shape, and when useful folk categories, like "trees" and "fish" don't line up with evolutionary taxonomies. Announcements: We have new Lingthusiasm merch! Imagine you're in a field with someone whose language you don't speak. A rabbit scurries by. The other person says "Gavagai!" You probably assumed they meant "rabbit" but they could have meant something else, like "scurrying" or even "lo! an undetached rabbit-part!" Inspired by the famous Gavagai thought experiment, these items feature a running rabbit and the caption "lo, an undetached rabbit-part!" in a woodblock engraving crossed with vaporwave style in magenta, indigo, teal, cream, and black/white on shirts, scarves, and more! "More people have been to Russia than I have" is a sentence that at first seems fine, but then gets weirder and weirder the more you read it. Inspired by these Escher sentences, we've made self-referential shirts saying "More people have read the text on this shirt than I have" (also available on tote bags, mugs, and hats), so you can wear them in old-time typewriter font and see who does a double take. Finally, we've made a design that simply says "Ask me about linguistics" in a style that looks like a classic "Hello, my name is..." sticker, and you can put it on stickers and buttons and shirts and assorted other portable items for when you want to skip the small talk and go right to a topic you're excited about. You can find all these designs and more at redbubble.com/lingthusiasm In this month's bonus episode we get enthusiastic about the word "do"! We talk about the various functions of "do" as illustrated by lyrics from ABBA and other pop songs, what makes the word "do" so unique in English compared to other languages, and the drama of how "do" caught on and then almost got driven out again Join us on Patreon now to get access to this and 80+ other bonus episodes.
