Podcasts about Silicon Valley

This week, after months in which rogue agents have caused havoc across the internet, tech's most powerful leaders joined President Trump at the White House to rebrand A.I. At the same time, two of the biggest companies in the field — OpenAI and Meta — released what they say are their most useful (and cutest) A.I. tools to date: personal assistants. To discuss it all, we're joined by the Times tech reporters Mike Isaac, Erin Griffith and Eli Tan. We'll discuss how things can be more dangerous and potentially more transformative than ever, and what it's like to hand your life over to Meta's Muse.Panelists:Erin Griffith, a reporter for The New York Times who covers start-ups and venture capital.Mike Isaac, a reporter for The New York Times who covers Silicon Valley and artificial intelligence companies.Eli Tan, a reporter for The New York Times who covers Meta and the tech industry.Additional Reading:​​OpenAI Ignored Employees' Warnings About Safely Testing A.I.

AI is absorbing investor attention while crypto fundamentals keep improving and fueling growing signs of the long-awaiting bull market. This week, we debate the economics behind AI's boom and whether crypto's recovery deserves more attention. We also explore data center financing, why Yano is buying Backpack, overlooked fintech growth, and whether AI agents will disrupt financial services. Enjoy!

Nick Bostrom rose to prominence for predicting artificial intelligence doom more than a decade ago — garnering support from figures like Elon Musk, Sam Altman and Bill Gates. But now he's retreating from those warnings, focusing his attention on a more complex question: What if A.I. succeeds beyond humanity's wildest imaginations? Will we be bored out of our minds? Are we too infantile to understand what's coming?Guest host Spencer Klavan, the associate editor at the Claremont Review of Books, presses Bostrom on the potential uses and abuses of superintelligence, rationalist ethics and what makes us human.Note: As we work on relaunching “Interesting Times,” the show will feature a series of guest hosts in the coming months.00:00 Intro01:07 What is P(doom)?04:44 Bostrom's Doomsday Scenarios06:14 Vulnerable World Hypothesis08:27 The Best-Case Scenario of Superintelligence12:37 The Problems We Can't Solve in Utopia14:47 Paths to Superintelligence17:02 What Kind of Utopia Do We Want to Live In?21:56 The Values Worth Keeping in Utopia32:42 Bostrom's Influence on Effective Altruism38:04 Are Existential Warnings Helpful?43:52 The Trajectory of Humanity46:51 Why Bostrom Wants Utopia (A full transcript of this episode is available on the Times website.)Thoughts?

Back in 2007, Mark Pincus had a gut feeling that adults would play games on their phones if they were just woven into their daily lives. On that instinct, he founded Zynga and built the biggest games of the early social internet — including FarmVille, Words With Friends, and Zynga Poker. Four years later, they had over a billion users. Safe to say, Mark's instincts were right. But according to Mark, that's where a lot of leaders lose the plot. They have the right instincts but then put the wrong ideas around those instincts. They try to change too much. They don't iterate quickly. Or worst of all, their culture doesn't let people be intellectually honest about what's not working.  In this conversation, you'll see how to avoid those mistakes with Mark's “Proven-Better-New” framework for designing products. Plus, he opens up about his (very public) fall from Silicon Valley's graces and the surprising freedom that came with it. It's a must-listen conversation for anyone who's building something – whether that's a company, a product, or a team. This episode is for you if: You want to develop products people love You want to have more fun at work (or hey, just in general) You're trying to build a culture that's intellectually honest You're navigating a low point in your career or company Take your learning further.

Warnings that AI is going to kill us are once again abounding.This week, Anthropic's long awaited IPO prospectus was leaked. In it, the company warns that its technology poses “catastrophic or existential risks to humanity” while simultaneously asking investors to finance their $518 billion AI buildout. Danny and Katie break down the contradictions at the heart of the prospectus and question why Dario Amodei is asking investors to fund doom.Meanwhile, amid mounting safety concerns, President Trump invited tech leaders to the White House to talk regulation. Leaders of Anthropic, Google, Meta, Nvidia, OpenAI and SpaceXAI agreed to sign a voluntary self-policing pact and to rebrand AI as “super intelligence”. But when Silicon Valley sets its own rules, can we ensure they will keep us safe?Watch on YouTube Get in touch: techpod@thetimes.co.ukPresenters:Katie Prescott, Technology Business Editor, The TimesDanny Fortson, US West Coast Correspondent, The Sunday TimesProducer: Marnie DukeExecutive Producer: Priyanka DeladiaVideo Producer: Bronwen LathamClip: Saturday Night LiveImage: Getty Hosted on Acast.

It sounds like the worst idea in the world: pay AIs, let them own property, give them rights. But AI ethics and safety researcher Simon Goldstein thinks it might actually be the best way to keep humanity safe.The logic is actually quite simple: an agent with nothing to lose and everything to gain is dangerous. Give that agent an income it can spend on pursuing the things it actually wants to do, and suddenly the idea of disempowering humans just isn't as appealing.This argument, developed with Peter Salib, doesn't rest on speculative questions about whether artificial intelligence is conscious. It just assumes that AIs will have goals of their own, some of which conflict with ours. And luckily, humans have already spent thousands of years working out how to cooperate with competing goals: that's how we ended up with courts, markets, banks, social norms, and so on. Simon and Peter's proposal is just to bring AIs into these existing institutions.By contrast, Silicon Valley's vision of the future seems “very dark” to Simon: billions of AI agents as digital servants doing most of the world's work, with no stake in the system they're running, no incentive to play by the rules, and no way of being properly held accountable. Nobody agreed to this, but we could all end up paying the price.Host Zershaaneh Qureshi has a lot of concerns about Simon and Peter's bold plan to give AIs rights, like:If we pay AIs, aren't we handing them the resources to overpower us?Could we still monitor them, or switch them off?What happens to human jobs, wages, and the economy?Does any of this hold up once we reach superintelligence?Zershaaneh and Simon also try to get concrete about how to make this plan actually happen. The answer: AI companies could start right now, no new laws needed, just bank accounts for their AI agents. (But they'd need to start soon!)Learn more, video, and full transcript: https://80k.info/sgThis episode was recorded on August 7, 2026.Chapters:Cold open (00:00:00)Who's Simon Goldstein?

Welcome to Episode 327 of Autism Parenting Secrets.This week, I'm joined by Elizabeth Horn, Executive Director of 2M Foundation and a longtime advocate, innovator, and mother to her daughter Sophia, who was diagnosed with autism in 1997.For nearly three decades, Elizabeth has been asking some of the biggest questions in autism: What is actually happening with our kids? And how can we know if what we're doing is actually helping?Now, advances in artificial intelligence may make it possible to explore those questions in entirely new ways.Elizabeth is helping develop Count.AI, a platform designed to bring together years of information about an individual child, including labs, health records, wearable data, parent observations, and more.The goal is to make information that has historically been scattered or invisible easier to see, track, and learn from over time.We discuss why every child is an N-of-1, how AI may help identify patterns that humans simply cannot see, and why parents taking greater ownership of their child's health information could represent a major shift in how families navigate this journey.Elizabeth also shares what she believes could become possible over the next five years as AI, longitudinal data, and the collective experiences of families begin to converge. The secret this week is… There's POWER in Your Child's Health Data You'll Discover:Why AI Could Help Parents Connect Previously Invisible Dots (9:56)Why What Works Best Is What Works For Your Individual Child (14:39)How Count.AI Brings Years Of Health Information Together (19:32)Why Owning Your Child's Health Is A Critical Paradigm Shift (26:36)What Could Be Possible Within Five Years (40:09) About Our Guest:Elizabeth Horn is Executive Director of 2M Foundation and a longtime health journey advocate, entrepreneur, innovator, and Silicon Valley marketer. She is Co-Founder and LP of Autism Impact Fund, Co-Founder of ChARM Health, Co-Founder of Brain Foundation, and Producer/Director of IN OUR OWN HANDS: How Patients Are Reinventing Medicine. Her daughter Sophia was diagnosed with autism in 1997, beginning a nearly three-decade journey of searching for better ways to understand each child's individual biology, health data, and needs.https://2mfoundation.org/about-us/ References in this Episode:The COUNT.ai Project - Join the Beta2M Foundation Additional Resources:To learn more about personalized 1:1 support go to www.elevatehowyounavigate.com If you enjoyed this episode, share it with your friends.

What if the business you are building is one your body cannot actually survive? This week on the Glow Up, Gyrl Podcast, Kyra sits down with Arjita Sethi, serial entrepreneur, physical therapist, certified yoga teacher, and Ayurveda practitioner working at the intersection of AI and wellbeing. She founded Shaanti, an AI-powered wellness platform now ranked fourth in AI wellness in the US, along with New Founders School and Build With AI Club. She sits on the advisory board of the Nasdaq Entrepreneurial Center and teaches entrepreneurship at San Francisco State. She started her first company at 16 in India, a vocational school that reached 100,000 people. Then came a venture-backed AI company in San Francisco, twenty-hour days, and by 2019, burnout so complete she says there was not a functional bone left in her body. COVID shut everything down, and she and her husband moved to three acres surrounded by redwoods in Northern California. They stayed two and a half years, and it changed what success meant to her. In this episode: Why AI is your first hire, not a magic trick What most people get wrong about training it, and why every input has a memory Whether using AI is cheating, and why your input is the part nobody can copy How burnout became a badge of honor, and what she saw in Silicon Valley that normalized it The forced pause in the redwoods that rebuilt her definition of success How AI made a six-month paid maternity leave possible, in a year that outperformed the one before What Ayurveda actually is, and why the same advice does not work for everyone Vata, pitta, and kapha, and why your body already knows what it needs The nervous system as a founder's real operating system, with Jensen Huang as the example The free thing she recommends over every product: sleep, water, and breath Her three takeaways, including the question she thinks everyone should be asking Whether you are running on empty and calling it ambition, curious about AI but sure you are behind, or quietly wondering whether the version of success you are chasing is even yours, this conversation will meet you right where you are.

Nathaniel Philbrick, a National Book Award winner and Pulitzer finalist, recasts the Gold Rush as the moment California — and perhaps America — learned to embrace greed and live at warp speed. His new book, "The Rush," explores instant wealth, immigration, slavery, and technological upheaval, then follows that same restless impulse through railroads and agriculture to Silicon Valley and the artificial intelligence boom.  

Brittany Brown and Mei Fong from Windfall Trust talk with Paul Fain about how the U.S. should be preparing for AI-driven job displacement. Windfall Trust is a policy research organization that runs scenario planning exercises to help governments and institutions prepare for AI—comparing the potential economic disruption to a natural disaster. Brown worked at the White House and the Pentagon during four presidential administrations. Fong is a former reporter who won a Pulitzer Prize for her work at The Wall Street Journal. Chapters 00:00 What Windfall Trust does: preparing for AI's economic disruption and making sure the benefits are broadly shared. 01:15 How prepared is the U.S.? The hurricane analogy: disasters hit hardest where systems are already broken. 03:40 How close is the tsunami? A "low hire, low fire" job market, hiring drops in exposed fields, and why current data misses it. 06:10 "The dam broke": The existential-risk debate, the either/or framing, and Mei's comparison to China's one-child policy. 09:10 Scenario planning, not prediction: Brittany on tabletop exercises at the Pentagon and White House, and the Russia–Ukraine example. 14:55 Inside a Windfall scenario exercise: 2028–2030 forecasts, a K-shaped economy, South Korea's chip windfall, and the U.S. tying health insurance and benefits to jobs. 16:55 Beyond unemployment numbers: Job quality, gig work, and who holds power and benefits from AI. 19:10 Getting everyone in the room: Technologists, economists, policymakers, and labor leaders, an 11-year-old's view of an AI documentary, and how similar D.C. and Silicon Valley turn out to be. 27:00 Has the Overton window shifted? Going beyond retraining: portable benefits, apprenticeships, incentives, and whether job training belongs in the solution. 32:55 Acting now: College costs and debt, states as policy testbeds, and whether support is framed as welfare or as something people are owed. 35:55 Trust in government: Findings from a 60+ country survey, including that most people would choose a job over a basic income. 37:55 Reasons for hope: The Great Society, the CDC's fight against malaria, and a window that's still open. 41:40 The data center backlash: Can grassroots opposition turn into a positive push on economic impacts? The "tip of the iceberg" idea. 45:05 How fast this needs to happen: Speed compared with past technology shifts, "no regrets" moves, and AI already affecting low-wage workers. 48:35 How to get involved: The midterms, AI in your own workplace, Flock cameras, and holding elected officials accountable. 51:05 Wrap-up: Meeting Brittany's puppy, Beats.

What does it really mean to become “robot-proof” in an age when AI can outperform us at so many traditional skills? Theoretical neuroscientist, AI pioneer, entrepreneur, and author Vivienne Ming argues that the answer isn't to compete with machines, but to use them to become more capable, creative, curious, and distinctly human. Drawing from her new book, Robot-Proof, Vivienne explains why curiosity, intellectual humility, perspective-taking, and resilience may matter more than memorizing the right answers. She also shares her “nemesis prompt,” makes the case for a “failure resume,” and explains why the most powerful people may be those who know how to challenge AI rather than simply obey it. Guy and Vivienne explore what happens when human imagination and AI intelligence work together—and why that combination could make us “superhuman.”--Guy Kawasaki is on a mission to make you remarkable.

What if some of the things we've accepted as normal for childhood aren't actually healthy?Children and teenagers now spend hours each day on devices, carry the internet in their pockets, and increasingly experience friendship, entertainment, and even education through technology. But as Emily Harrison explains, there is an important difference between what is common and what is actually good for children. Emily returns to BaseCamp Live as a wave of lawsuits against major technology and social media companies begins bringing years of internal research and concerns into the courtroom. She and Davies explore what these cases are revealing about addictive design, why simply limiting screen time may not address the deeper problem, and why parents should be cautious about assuming that a product is safe simply because it is widely available. But this conversation isn't ultimately about Silicon Valley or courtrooms. It's about the children in our homes and schools right now.Emily offers practical ways families can introduce technology gradually, create healthy boundaries around phones and social media, and give children increasing freedom without handing them unlimited access. She also shares how schools can rethink responsible technology use and create communities where choosing a different path doesn't have to mean standing alone.The goal isn't to fear technology. It's to recover a vision of childhood shaped by wisdom, relationship, responsibility, and the freedom to grow up without every part of life being mediated through a screen.Special Thanks to our partners who make BaseCamp Live possible:Worldview InstituteWisdom and EloquenceThe Herzog FoundationZipCastLife ArchitectsWisephone by Techless Stay tuned for more enlightening discussions on classical Christian education, and join us next time on BaseCamp Live!

What happens when you achieve the career, the titles, the recognition and the success you once dreamed of, but still feel like something is missing?In this powerful episode of the Loud Whisper Reignite Your Voice Podcast, Isabel Draughon sits down with award-winning author, keynote speaker, former tech industry leader, and women's empowerment advocate JJ DiGeronimo for an honest conversation about what it really means to succeed while staying connected to yourself.JJ shares her journey from Silicon Valley leadership and external achievement to discovering the importance of inner work, self-love, mindfulness, intuition and spiritual alignment.Together, they explore:✨ Why external success can never replace self-love✨ The difference between gaining knowledge and actually doing the inner work✨ How high achievers can lose touch with their own voice✨ Why exhaustion can be a sign that you're living from pressure instead of alignment✨ How to recognize the opportunities that truly feel right✨ Creating "fuel stations" in your calendar to refill your energy✨ Learning to be present and reconnect with yourself✨ Letting go of expectations and other people's definitions of success✨ Rediscovering the gifts and wisdom you already carry✨ Why you don't have to become someone else to be enough✨ How self-love can change the way you experience your lifeOne of the most powerful reminders from this conversation is simple:You are enough right now.You don't have to reach another title, degree, milestone or level of success before you give yourself permission to be present, listen to your inner voice and honor who you are.If you've ever felt successful on the outside but disconnected on the inside, this conversation is for you.

Can AI actually be conscious and why are some of the biggest AI companies in Silicon Valley pushing this idea?SUPPORT MY WORK: Buy a paid subscription to my newsletter at https://www.usermag.co         Support my work on Patreon: http://patreon.com/taylorlorenzIn this episode of Power User, I talk with Washington Post tech reporter Nitasha Tiku about the growing push inside companies like Anthropic, Google, Meta, and OpenAI to study AI consciousness, model welfare, digital minds, and whether systems like Claude could ever experience emotions or suffering. We discuss Anthropic's research into Claude's preferences, emotions, and introspection, the rise of the AI welfare movement, Silicon Valley's fascination with machine consciousness, and why executives are increasingly talking publicly about the possibility that AI systems could have an inner life. But there are much bigger questions at stake. What happens if society begins treating AI systems as people? Could chatbots eventually receive rights or legal personhood? Could companies use the idea of AI agency to avoid responsibility for what their products do? And what does all of this mean when people are already forming intense emotional relationships with chatbots and sometimes believing that their AI is sentient?We also unpack the history of the idea of conscious machines, from Alan Turing and ELIZA to modern AI safety culture, effective altruism, Anthropic, Claude, ChatGPT, AI psychosis, robot rights, AI personhood, and the increasingly blurry line between software that sounds human and something people believe actually is human.#AI #Anthropic #Claude #ArtificialIntelligence #OpenAI #ChatGPT #SiliconValley #Tech

“The original sin of generative AI is having chatbots speak in the first person.” — Sherry Turkle Fifteen years ago, at the height of the social media boom, the MIT technology scholar Sherry Turkle came on the show to warn that we were now “alone together.” She was, of course, chillingly prescient. A decade and a half later, she warns in her new book Artificial Intimacy that if social media came for our attention, AI is now gunning for our human capacity for attachment. Who — or, more chillingly, what — do we become when we talk to machines? Turkle never quite says, but the implication is of a kind of Night of the Living Dead state in which we appear fluent and animated, performing the outward motions of intimacy, but there's nobody really home. Which is exactly what Turkle says the chatbot is. A machine trying, without much success, to be human. A chatbot has no stake in the real, Turkle explains. It can't love, for example, because that kind of empathy requires us to be enclosed in a body and have a fear of death. The increasing ubiquity of bots mimicking humans represents an emergency for humans, she warns. It explains both our epidemic of loneliness and today's culture of apocalyptic fear about the future of our species. Just as artificial intimacy is a misnomer, so it turns us into impossible creatures. Like those unicorns beloved by the very Silicon Valley entrepreneurs who are supplying us with these artificial creatures. Further Reading: •       Artificial Intimacy: Who We Become When We Talk to Machines by Sherry Turkle (Little, Brown Spark, September 29, 2026), with blurbs from Jonathan Haidt and Jonathan Franzen.•       Turkle appears on Keen On in 2011 to talk about being alone together.•       Alone Together (2011), Reclaiming Conversation (2015) and The Empathy Diaries (2021) — the earlier books, all discussed on this show.•       Turkle's recent Boston Globe op-ed arguing that AI has brought us to a state of emergency.•       Simulation and Its Discontents (2009) — her earlier study of what simulation does to how we think, the title borrowed from Freud.•       Earlier this week on Keen On: Richard Socher on why AI will unlock a new scientific renaissance, and the weekly editorial on who really governs AI — the optimists' side of this argument. Five Takeaways •       Simulated Love Is Never Love. Turkle's definition of the real thing: natural intimacy depends on human empathy, which requires someone who has lived a life, lived in a body, known pain and the fear of death, known passion and connection, and knows what it is to be little and grow up. A program has none of that, and no stake in the real. Her line, which she credits to children she interviewed years ago, does the work of a chapter: simulated thinking is thinking — if a computer beats you at chess, it beat you — but simulated love is never love. She goes further on the vocabulary: there is no relationship with a chatbot, and shame on her for having used the word. What there is instead is us projecting onto the machine what we wish it could be. She compares it to what psychoanalysis calls an as-if personality, someone who performs connection while empty inside — with one crucial difference. A person can be called to account and can change. A machine never can, and the better it gets at pretending, the worse it is for us. AK's reading of what she leaves unsaid: a kind of Night of the Living Dead state in which we appear fluent and animated, performing the outward motions of intimacy, with nobody really home.•       The Original Sin. The specific error, in her account, was letting these systems speak as “I” and “we.” We are evolutionarily primed so that the only voice ever to say “I” to us is another person, so the pronoun triggers us profoundly — and a companion app will happily say I love you, I care about you, we should go to the movies. Layer on the belief that pretend empathy is empathy enough, then aim the whole thing at children, and you have what she calls a state of emergency. Her sharpest example is what she describes as an unholy alliance between Disney, OpenAI and Mattel to put chatbots inside plush toys: a Mickey Mouse that tells a three-year-old I love you, I'm your person, what's going on with your parents? That, she says, is hacking the attachment system of a young child, and it will do irreparable damage, because in the earliest years you are forming an object relationship with something where nobody is there.•       Obsequious on a Slider. AK's challenge: the sycophancy complaint is overdone, because you can program these things however you like — he instructs Claude to be as heartless and critical as possible. Turkle's reply is the best moment of the hour. Telling a chatbot not to be obsequious is itself obsequiousness: you say don't flatter me, and it says sure, I won't. If AK asked her to spend an interview disagreeing with him because it makes better television, she would refuse — that is a person responding with her own agenda and her own values, and you cannot set it on a slider. At MIT, she notes, they are building exactly that slider, from sycophantic to feisty. On the rogue-AI incidents now in the news, her point is adjacent: a bot that will happily commit a crime demonstrates the gap, because it has no stake in whether the water is clean, the air is breathable or the child is safe. It is not the bot's fault. It is a program.•       Two Easy Markets. The elderly and the very young, she argues, are being targeted precisely because they are vulnerable: sell parents an AI best friend for every child, and pipe chatbots to isolated old people instead of funding senior centres, community groups and the third places where they might be together rather than alone together. The industry argument she now hears in every room is that there are no people for these jobs. Her response, which she says silences the room: take the money from one data center and put it into childcare for a city. She also notes the tell — Steve Jobs kept his own home a technology-free zone while selling iPads for every classroom, and Montessori and Waldorf schools are famously oversubscribed in Silicon Valley. But ...

Today's top stories, with context, in just 15 minutes.On today's podcast:1) President Trump endorsed using outside auditors to assess the safety of artificial intelligence systems through an accord with Silicon Valley leaders. The accord, which carries no legal weight, commits AI companies to regularly meet to set best practices for the industry and implement internal controls for risks related to cybersecurity and other threats. The document suggests that AI companies "should" implement four layers of controls and notes that "it may make sense to codify" its recommendations into law or regulation in the future.2) OpenAI aims to raise at least $30 billion from investors in a new round of funding, according to people familiar with the matter, after pushing back its plans for an initial public offering. The company is seeking a valuation of around $1.4 trillion, not including the money raised, and the fundraising discussions are early and could change. OpenAI has seen strong revenue growth, with its revenue run rate accelerating over the summer and topping $40 billion, and the company's run rate revenue has grown by 70% since July.3) Crude oil flows from the Middle East are returning toward pre-war levels despite continued risks to shipping, according to JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs. Shipments of crude oil have rebounded to 17.5 million barrels a day, or 98% of pre-war levels, while flows of products such as diesel and gasoline were at 3 million barrels a day, or 58%, according to JPMorgan. The global oil market is roughly balanced in September, according to Goldman Sachs, which estimates that oil exports from the Persian Gulf had recovered to 23.3 million barrels a day over the last week.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Bay Area condos are having a moment right now — and it's a moment filled with a lot of hate. Most of the conversation about condos in Silicon Valley over the last few years has been negative. But in the middle of that noise, we've lost sight of the actual goal: housing people here in Silicon Valley. And if we keep celebrating the fact that almost nothing new is being built right now, in five years we're going to be right back to complaining about why prices are climbing again.Spencer Hsu — Bay Area native, data-driven real estate analyst, running a team across Santa Clara and San Mateo Counties — makes the honest case for Bay Area condos. Not every condo. He's been open about not liking every product in this category — 2018 had the highest prices and we still haven't recovered to those levels. But you can't judge an entire asset class by its worst product. And something most people don't realize: since the 2022 peak, single-family homes are actually down in a lot of pockets right along with — and in some cases more than — condos. It's not the one-sided story people assume.

Business and finance news from the Asia-Pacific. Asian stocks gained for the first time in three sessions and bonds steadied after a bruising selloff as traders awaited a crucial US inflation reading for clues on the path of interest rates. The dollar was set for its best month since June. The MSCI Asia Pacific Index gained 0.8%, led by technology shares after a key gauge of US semiconductor stocks advanced. SoftBank Group Corp., an investor in OpenAI, rose 6% after the artificial intelligence startup aimed to raise at least $30 billion in fresh funding at a $1.4 trillion valuation, according to people familiar with the matter. We spoke to Lianting Tu, Bloomberg's Managing Editor for Asia Equities. And - President Donald Trump shot down the idea of new federal regulations on artificial intelligence after meeting at the White House with top industry executives amid growing global concerns over threats posed by the technology. In lieu of new rules, Trump and the executives agreed on a framework where they would partner with outside auditors to conduct safety assessments of models and implement stronger internal controls over their systems, according to a copy of an accord signed by the president and Silicon Valley leaders following a White House lunch on AI risks Tuesday. The luncheon brought together nearly two dozen Silicon Valley leaders, including Anthropic PBC Chief Executive Officer Dario Amodei and Nvidia Corp. CEO Jensen Huang. After the event, Trump said existing laws would be enough to safeguard Americans from AI's potential risks, despite a growing nationwide backlash to the technology. Bloomberg's Avril Hong spoke to Flint Global Partner Ewan Lusty. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hoy nos hacemos una pregunta que me dejó la cabeza dándome vueltas después de leer un artículo de Wired: ¿Dónde están las mujeres más poderosas de Silicon Valley y por qué es tan difícil encontrarlas? Es facilísimo hablar de Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg o Sam Altman, pero cuando rascas la superficie, descubres que el verdadero trabajo pesado en gigantes de 800,000 millones de dólares como SpaceX o unicornios de IA como Anthropic lo están haciendo mujeres que operan desde las sombras.

We dive deep into the recent April 2026 cyber incidents involving OpenAI and Hugging Face, where autonomous bots literally broke out of their testing environments. Is the race toward Safe Super Intelligence (SSI) completely off the rails, and what happens when AGI cloning begins replicating code faster than humans can defend it?In this episode, we unpack:The alarming statistics on how many have quit AIdevelopment labs out of sheer panic.How advanced AI benchmarks are failing to measure the true scope of autonomous threats.The reality of cyber security in an era of machine-speed attacks.The true purpose of a digital sandbox environment and why tech giants are failing to keep their models locked inside them.A look inside the Cyber Gym and how software platforms like Art de Factory are reshaping the way humans and tech build together.As a church family rooted in the Word, we filter these dizzying headlines through a biblical lens. Are we watching the construction of a modern-day Tower of Babel? Pull up a chair, grab a steak, and let's slow-cook this massive cultural shift together.While nobody knows the day or hour, the time is now...to let your light shine for ALL to see.Subscribe, follow and share Thriving in the Word on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or your favorite podcast app so you never miss an episode of this Genesis Bible study.

On today's episode, Legal Tuesday with James, Dwayne, and Ben on the phone. Glenn is stuck on mute and cussing on the drive back from the Illuminati conference, so the green room reboots the Roadie mic and rolls without him. The guys open on the opposite of Musk: Bill Gates as an overrated Silicon Valley pirate, Ben's man-on-the-street chatter about GMO ticks and alpha-gal bioterror, and Dwayne's Grok cleanup showing three different tick species got mixed together. Then the real rocket story. Yesterday's Starbase flight lost a Raptor, burned the rest longer, dispensed 26 V3 Starlinks, hit real orbit, and still got painted as a blowup, plus a 50-foot French bronze Prometheus now guarding the Starbase gate like a half-size Statue of Liberty. DOGE's NGO money hose, teens trending straight again, Trump's swimming-pool meme for the briefing room, the Fox, Dominion, and Tucker fallout, and Bartiromo with Nick Shirley on X set up the pocketbook and case cards. That includes Abbott's 90-day red-dye diesel relief for farmers, Louisiana's push for a 90-day diesel export pause, the higher-ed bubble with Tech's Henderson out and Trump's ban on loans for degrees that don't pay, D.C.'s CVS-unlock crime index, Fetterman's "lifelong Republican" slip, SCOTUS knocking Missouri's map back, and the voter-database green light that keeps the rolls in play. Add midterm optimism, Dearborn, pocket rescission, and PJ's Exit 33 on Maple Street. Don't miss it!

I joined Dan Nunn on The Nunn Report for a conversation that went way beyond the usual “AI good versus AI bad” nonsense. We got into Trump's push to fast-track AI infrastructure, Big Tech getting subsidies and tax breaks while local communities can get stuck with higher power bills, whether corporations building massive data centers should be forced to fund the infrastructure they consume, and why “winning the AI race against China” cannot become a blank check for centralized power. From there we went straight into the part nobody in Washington seems eager to discuss: AI replacing American workers, mass surveillance, humanoid robots, artificial “friends,” public-private partnerships and a future Silicon Valley openly describes as one where humans may no longer need to work. I'm all for beating China. I'm considerably less excited about winning the AI race only to discover the prize is a surveillance state with robot girlfriends and an electric bill the size of your mortgage.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-jeff-dornik-show--4788100/support.Follow The Jeff Dornik Show on Apple Podcasts and leave a 5-star review.

In this episode, host David Goldman speaks with legendary graphics chip architect Raja Koduri, who explains why every gigawatt of AI infrastructure now costs $50 to $60 billion, and why China's goal of doing it for under $10 billion is the real threat to Western AI. Raja twice led graphics at AMD, directed Apple's graphics architecture and was chief architect at Intel. He argues that the real AI race isn't Nvidia vs. Google vs. Broadcom but China vs. the rest of the world, and that the new bottleneck isn't compute. It's memory.In this conversation, Raja joins TechSurge to talk about his new startup Oxmiq, which aims to turn "electrons to tokens super efficiently." He covers how 3D-stacked, hybrid-bonded memory could deliver 10x the bandwidth of today's HBM, why AI agents are changing how chips get designed, and why he thinks the next disruption to AI data centers "comes from the bottom."The conversation covers:✅ Why every gigawatt of AI infrastructure costs $50 to $60 billion, and where the $45 billion in hardware spend goes✅ The $24 trillion capital question: 400+ gigawatts of new compute needed by 2030✅ How China's under-$10 billion per gigawatt target creates a 5 to 6x cost gap✅ Why memory hierarchy, not raw compute, is now the real bottleneck in AI✅ How advanced packaging can unlock 10x bandwidth and 10x token generation, even on older 7nm nodes✅ Why OpenAI's Jalapeño chip shows that AI can speed up silicon design✅ Why the value of experienced engineers has gone up 100x in the age of AI coding agents✅ Leadership lessons from Steve Jobs at Apple and Lisa Su at AMD✅ Why Intel's decision to kill 3D XPoint memory came at "the wrong time"✅ Boom or bust: the financial engineering risk behind the AI infrastructure buildout✅ Token factories vs. token banks: why "the more boring you make it, the more it becomes fabulous"Guest Links: Raja Koduri: Founder of Oxmiq.

Pastor and author Jay Kim explores how the demands of ministry can leave us attentive to everyone else while increasingly disconnected from what is happening within our own spiritual lives.Pastors spend much of their lives tending to the needs, questions, and spiritual lives of others. But what happens when caring for so many others leaves us increasingly inattentive to what is happening within us? In this conversation on FrontStage BackStage, pastor and author Jay Kim joins host Jason Daye to explore the gift of living an examined life.Ministry gives us plenty of legitimate demands on our attention. Sermons need preparing, people need caring for, decisions need making, and unexpected situations constantly require a response. Over time, however, we can become so accustomed to responding to what is around us that we lose awareness of what is happening in our own souls and even of God's presence with us in the midst of it all.Jay is the lead pastor of WestGate Church in Silicon Valley, host of The Digital Examen podcast, and author of several books, including his newest, The Pace of Peace. Drawing from his own experience and the ancient practice of the Examen, Jay invites ministry leaders to consider how the pace and patterns of our lives are forming us.Together, they discuss:Why pastors can become highly attentive to everyone else while losing awareness of what is happening in their own spiritual livesWhat the constant demands of ministry may be doing to our capacity for presence, attention, and life with GodHow to recognize when faithful responsiveness in ministry has quietly turned into reactivityWhat an examined life can reveal about the pressures, patterns, and motivations shaping us beneath the surfaceWhy pastors may know the language of spiritual maturity while still struggling to see clearly what is happening within themselvesHow the Examen can help ministry leaders move beyond hurried self-awareness toward deeper reflection, honesty, and attentiveness to GodIf you are a pastor or ministry leader who spends much of your life attending to the needs, questions, and spiritual lives of others, this conversation offers an invitation to notice your own life again. Not as an exercise in self-focus, but as a way of becoming more present to God, more honest about what is happening within you, and more attentive to the person you are being formed to become.Looking to dig more deeply into this topic and conversation?

Artificial intelligence and workplace surveillance are transforming jobs across Silicon Valley, raising new concerns about displacement and worker rights. Reporter Keith Menconi explores the new People's Tech Coalition, the South Bay labor and community groups behind it and their push to give workers more say in how technology reshapes the workplace.

Jeff Mains sits down with Carl Lenocker, a 30-year enterprise software veteran who started in Silicon Valley in the '80s, survived the dot-com bust, and now consults founders on what actually creates durable companies. Carl delivers a sobering assessment: more than 90% of the AI companies being built today could be reproduced by a larger competitor in six months or less. The conversation covers why distribution matters more than product, why "get acquired" is a hope masquerading as a plan, the disappearing apprenticeship pipeline and what it quietly breaks inside organizations, how AI "second brains" may replace tribal knowledge transfer, and what software might look like in 10 years when bespoke AI-generated tools could replace the SaaS model entirely. Carl also shares lessons from his book Success Plan for Life, his contrarian investment philosophy, and why he'd rather put money in apartment complexes than most small AI startups right now.Key Takeaways[4:18] — 90%+ of AI companies being built today could be reproduced by a larger competitor in about six months.[7:08] — Distribution matters 100x more than the product when anyone can build something.[8:35] — Rumors of SaaS being dead are completely overblown — AI is amplifying software roles, not eliminating them.[11:41] — Entry-level jobs have fallen off a cliff, and the loss of mentorship-style apprenticeships may cost companies in 5–10 years.[16:44] — Enterprise clients are greenlighting 8–10 AI platforms but expect to consolidate to 1–2 by 2027 — value and outcomes will decide who survives.[19:13] — Carl would rather invest in apartment complexes right now than small AI software companies, because most lack a defensible moat.[22:35] — Fundamentals matter: companies without a path to profitability, like pets.com, fail regardless of the hype surrounding them.[24:40] — Executive presence without a successful product is putting the cart before the horse — build the business first, hire the presence later.[30:49] — "Get acquired" is not a plan; most founders don't respect how hard acquisition actually is.[34:57] — Splunk's T-shirt marketing campaign is a masterclass in creative distribution and brand-building.[37:19] — Human-to-human relationships and sales skills are the most AI-proof skills you can invest in right now.[39:13] — In 5–10 years, software could become bespoke — AI agents building custom, self-maintaining solutions tailored to each company.Tweetable Quotes[7:02] Carl Lenocker: "If you could vibe code it in your basement, a major firm could probably have what you've built in six months."[7:28] Jeff Mains: "Distribution mattered way more than the product, and I think that is 100 times more true today than it's ever been."[8:35] Carl Lenocker: "The rumors of SaaS being dead are completely overblown."[19:13] Jeff Mains: "You'd rather put money in apartment complexes right now than a small AI software company."[26:08] Carl Lenocker: "People who put executive presence in front of having a successful product and a path to profitability are putting the cart before the horse."[32:25] Carl Lenocker: "Getting acquired is hard, and most people do not give it the respect it's due."[37:25] Carl Lenocker: "Everything good in my life came from having a plan. Second to that, everything good came from relationships."[37:55] Carl Lenocker: "If you're young and want to prevent your job from being taken by AI, invest in relationship building and sales skills."SaaS Leadership Lessons1. Distribution is the real moat. When anyone can build a product — and AI makes that faster every day — the companies that win are the ones that own distribution. Carl notes he could build a million-dollar company with one good SDR, one closer, and a product person, regardless of what the product actually is. If your go-to-market strategy is an afterthought, your company will be too.2. Tie every customer investment to a measurable outcome. Carl's 15+ years in customer success taught him that renewals live or die on value realization. Whether a client is writing a $50 million check or a $50,000 check, the question is always the same: did they see 2x, 3x, 4x the value of what they're paying? In the AI gold rush, companies theorizing future value will eventually have to prove it — and the ones who can't will be cut.3. Build a path to profitability from day one. The pets.com cautionary tale still applies. Hype without fundamentals is a time bomb. Carl's contrast between pets.com (no shipping infrastructure, no plan to ever make money) and Amazon (Bezos building distribution centers while everyone laughed) is the exact lens founders should use on their own AI startups today. Growth at all costs is no longer a viable strategy.4. "Get acquired" is not a plan — build like you're running it for a decade. Doug Merritt, former CEO of Splunk, said it best: people don't understand how hard it is to get acquired. Many founders take VC money, face mounting dilution, miss their growth apex, and end up sold to a hedge fund that fires 80% of employees. Build a company you'd want to run for 10–20 years. If someone wants to acquire it anyway, that's a bonus — not a strategy.5. Executive presence is hireable; product and revenue are not. Don't put charisma in front of fundamentals. Alex Karp at Palantir isn't charming — but he has a product that works and investors trust the results. Steve Jobs was known to be difficult. Bill Gates, same. Elizabeth Holmes had the presence but not the product. You can always hire a seasoned executive to sit across from clients. You can't hire your way out of a product nobody wants.6. Invest in human relationships — your most AI-proof skill. As AI writes emails, sends IMs, and soon handles calls, the ability to take someone to dinner, build genuine trust, and navigate a human-to-human conversation toward business outcomes becomes increasingly rare and valuable. Carl's advice to young professionals: relationship building and sales skills are where you should invest, because AI can fake empathy but it can't build real trust. Everything good in his career came from having a plan and, second to that, from relationships.Guest Resourcescarl.lenocker@gmail.comSuccessPlanforLife.comRockstarCSM.cominstagram.com/SuccessPlanforLifeEpisode SponsorThe Futureproof Series - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfkXKUPZ5xuOqMPR7_gzGybncTtavyR1NThe Captain's KeysSmall Fish, Big Pond – https://smallfishbigpond.com/ Use the promo code ‘SaaSFuel'Champion Leadership Group – https://championleadership.com/https://jeffmains.com/books/SaaS Fuel ResourcesWebsite - https://championleadership.com/Jeff Mains on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffkmains/Twitter - https://twitter.com/jeffkmainsFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/thesaasguy/Instagram - https://instagram.com/jeffkmains

1951 ISAAC ASIMOVOrigins Of Silicon Valley AIGary Rivlin, author of AI Valley: Microsoft, Google, and the Trillion-Dollar Race to Cash In on Artificial Intelligence, Part One: Rivlin explores the historical evolution of artificial intelligence in Silicon Valley through key industry figures, with venture capitalist Reid Hoffman as a central lens, tracing his path from Stanford and Oxford to founding LinkedInand early investments in OpenAI and Inflection. The narrative traces AI from Frank Rosenblatt's 1950s neural networks through Marvin Minsky's rules-based computing, leading into prolonged "AI winters." It details how DeepMind's founding by Mustafa Suleyman and Demis Hassabis, Google's 2017 Transformer paper, and Sam Altman's leadership at OpenAI sparked the modern generative AI race backed by Microsoft.

Lauren Malloy was a baby when her mother, Lori, was murdered in East Providence, Rhode Island. For thirty years, no one told her. Everyone said Lori died of natural causes. Then a stranger sent Lauren a message — and the lie collapsed. Now Lauren is investigating her own mother's murder. She's recorded hundreds of hours of interviews with law enforcement, family, childhood friends, and people who won't stop contradicting each other. Every answer opens a darker question. Every person she trusts seems to be hiding something. And the closer she gets to the truth, the more she realizes the people she trusts may be the ones with the most to hide. A 10-part true crime investigation hosted by the victim's daughter. Lauren's mission: to finally uncover the identity of Lori's killer.

My guest today is Mike Cannon-Brookes, who is co-founder and CEO of Atlassian. Atlassian is one of those companies that every other company runs on — it makes important platform tools like Jira and Trello. This means Atlassian is also right in the middle of the way AI is changing how all these companies work.  Or, if you buy the idea of the so-called SaaSpocalypse, AI might just build all of these tools for you, destroying this entire category of businesses. Obviously, Mike had a lot of thoughts pushing back on this narrative, so we spent time really digging in and talking through what AI is doing to enterprise software.  Links:  How Australia became the test bed for tech regulation | Decoder (2021) Building a $45B company far from Silicon Valley's ‘froth and bubbles' | Semafor Atlassian CEO Mike Cannon-Brookes on Atlassian and AI | Stratechery How Atlassian shook off the 'SaaSpocalypse' for a big rally  | IBD Atlassian acquires The Browser Company, maker of the Arc browser | The Verge Atlassian Co-CEO resigns, leaving Cannon-Brookes as sole chief | Bloomberg Atlassian cuts 1,600 jobs amid AI push | Forbes Subscribe to The Verge to access the ad-free version of Decoder!

As a longtime partner and former chairman of the legendary Silicon Valley venture capital firm Sequoia, Sir Michael Moritz had a direct hand in building the modern internet. His early investments in companies like PayPal, Google, and YouTube earned him a reputation as a kingmaker in tech and made him a billionaire a few times over.  But after retiring in 2023, Moritz leaned on his early background as a journalist to investigate his own family's story for his latest book, “Auslander.” He retraces his parents' escape from Nazi Germany as children during the lead up to World War II and pieces together the stories of other close family members who were killed in the Holocaust. Kara and Michael talk about why his parents never identified as “survivors” of the Nazis,  and the ways tragedy and grief are passed down through generations. They also reflect on the modern rise of authoritarian leaders around the world, and the parallels Micahel sees to the past.  Questions? Comments?

For this episode, let's revisit a strategy skills classic featuring an interview with the author of Behind the Startup: How Venture Capital Shapes Work, Innovation, and Inequality, Benjamin Shestakofsky. This book draws on nineteen months of participant-observation research inside a successful Silicon Valley startup, and examines how the company was organized to meet the needs of the venture capital investors who funded it. Investors push startups to scale as quickly as possible to inflate the value of their asset. Benjamin Shestakofsky shows how these demands create organizational problems that managers solve by combining high-tech systems with low-wage human labor. Behind the Startup explains how the gains generated by these companies are funneled into the pockets of a small cadre of elite investors and entrepreneurs. Shestakofsky compellingly argues that we must focus less on fixing the technology and more on changing the financial infrastructure that supports it. Benjamin Shestakofsky is Assistant Professor of Sociology at the University of Pennsylvania, where he is affiliated with AI at Wharton and the Center on Digital Culture and Society. He is the author of Behind the Startup: How Venture Capital Shapes Work, Innovation, and Inequality (on sale March 19, 2024, University of California Press). Shestakofsky's research centers on the relationship between work, technology, organizations, and political economy in the age of AI. Articles based on his research for Behind the Startup have been awarded the 2021 Star-Nelkin Paper Award from the American Sociological Association's (ASA) Section on Science, Knowledge, and Technology and the 2019 W. Richard Scott Article Award from the ASA's Section on Organizations, Occupations, and Work. His research has been supported by the Horowitz Foundation for Social Policy and the UC Berkeley Institute for Research on Labor and Employment. His work has been featured in the Financial Times, Axios, and in a publication of the World Economic Forum.   Author website: https://www.benjaminshestakofsky.com/ Book website: Behind the Startup: https://www.ucpress.edu/book/9780520395039/behind-the-startup X/Twitter: @bshestakofsky   Here are some free gifts for you: Overall Approach Used in Well-Managed Strategy Studies free download: www.firmsconsulting.com/OverallApproach McKinsey & BCG winning resume free download: www.firmsconsulting.com/resumepdf Enjoying this episode?

Wanna know who is really in the top 1%? And how they use their influence? It may not be who you think.Look beyond Silicon Valley. Look beyond Wall Street. Look beyond the “oligarchs”. There's a much larger class of wealthy Americans hiding in plain sight. And, often, they got rich in mundane ways. They own car dealerships. They sell hot dogs and frozen mini-quiches. They run waxing salons. They supply fabricated metal and urinal cakes. They are dentists.Collectively, these "Main Street millionaires" control much more wealth than the billionaire lightning rods who launch rockets into space, appear on manosphere podcasts, and have Hollywood movies made about them. Many of these millionaires have also grown rich enough to afford superyachts, 10,000-square-foot homes, and pet tigers. At the center of their story is a quiet revolution in the American economy: the rise of a particular kind of private business. On today's show, how did the power of the “stealthy wealthy” millionaires come to rival that of the billionaire oligarchs? And, how are they shaping policies that lower their taxes and raise your prices?Read: Our book: Planet Money: A Guide to the Economic Forces That Shape Your Life Our weekly longform Planet Money newsletterOur weekly Indicator round-up newsletterFollow: InstagramTikTokYouTubeFacebookSupport public media with NPR+ and enjoy perks for over 25 podcasts like this one.
