Podcasts about future tech

Artificial intelligence is back in the headlines as warnings from the people building it raise new questions about where the technology is headed. A former Anthropic researcher has quit over fears that AI companies are racing toward self-improving systems that could eventually escape human control, while other industry leaders are calling for a slowdown and outlining the need for regulation. Dan talked with Dr. Neil Thompson, Director of the FutureTech research project at MIT’s Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory, about the power of AI and its future.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Episode Summary:Will and Brandt try to get through a whole episode without saying the two letters. What's your over-under on how far they got? Along the way: Will's new NDI camera rig, Apple's ten-thousand-dollar Mac Minis and a rumored rack-mount server, why local hosting keeps swinging back to the cloud, and Brandt's morning brief that grew from a chat message into a checkbox web page.Discussions Include:• Will's NDI camera overhaul, from a $200 encoder box to auto-tracking PTZ gimbals that occasionally zoom out on their own• Apple's $10K Mac Mini configurations, the rumored rack-mount Mac server, and model companies ordering them by the thousand• The expansion-and-contraction cycle of local versus cloud, from self-hosted email servers to running your own models• Buzz, Block's "Slack for agents," and why one master agent isn't enough once you're running several at once• Brandt's daily brief evolving from a chat message into a full HTML page with checkboxesQuotable Quotes (Should you choose to share):     "It's refreshing to talk about something that's technology based that doesn't have two letters in it." - Brandt Krueger     "Whenever I get frustrated with something in software, I now ask myself: can I just build it?" - Will Curran     "It would back up, go full speed to the point where it would pop a wheelie, and then ram itself into your furniture at full speed." - Brandt Krueger     "AI has definitely made us more organized and more productive. But then why do people feel as burnt out as they did when we didn't have this technology?" - Will CurranThing of the Episode (TOTE):     Brandt: Roborock QV 35A - https://us.roborock.com/products/roborock-qv-35a     Will: Cronometer - https://cronometer.com

Episode Summary:Will and Brandt return from the summer backlog to reveal how Brandt built his own terminal macro — type WTF, hit return — to auto-generate this show's rough cuts and notes. Will shares a parallel project automating his DJ mix uploads, and the two unpack why lower-effort models like Sonnet outperform flashier ones once a workflow is dialed in, with quick hits on Notion, AI agents, and iOS 27's new Siri.Discussions Include:• Brandt's homemade "WTF" terminal macro that auto-generates rough cuts and show notes for this very podcast• Why dialing a workflow back to Sonnet worked better than letting flashier models like Opus and Fable run the show• Will's Fade Out project, which auto-edits, tags, and publishes his DJ mix recordings end to end• Barry, Will's AI agent, and the surprisingly awkward business of having an AI negotiate with contractors• Using Notion as a shared, always-current source of truth for both work and AI agent memoryQuotable Quotes (Should you choose to share):     "It's taken it from about a 45-minute process to about a 10-minute process. And that's pretty good." - Brandt Krueger     "If there's something that you do that is repetitive, there is no reason why it can't be completely automated." - Will Curran     "We're a team here. Let's collaborate. Sometimes you go down a weird road that takes five minutes that would have taken me ten seconds to just do the work." - Brandt Krueger     "He has the ability to be on all the time, ask questions, get responses, respond immediately — it's freaking the crap out of contractors." - Will CurranThing of the Episode (TOTE):     Brandt: iOS 27 Beta (new Siri) - https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2026/06/apple-unveils-next-generation-of-apple-intelligence-siri-ai-and-more/     Will: Notion - https://www.notion.com

Am Freitag eröffnet die IFA in Berlin. In den vergangenen zehn Jahren habe sich die Technologiemesse stark weiterentwickelt - von der Unterhaltungselektronik hin zu "Future Tech", sagt Geschäftsführer Leif Lindner.

With the Lindsay Clancy murder trial now in the hands of a deadlocked jury, national debate around postpartum psychosis, maternal mental health, and criminal responsibility has reached a breaking point. On Week 516 of the 3 time award winning flagship podcast Duke Loves Rasslin, host Duke sits down with guest Alissa G, an experienced educator, wife, and mother, for an unvarnished, high stakes debate on the trial.Following Duke's stance on Devon & The Duke (co hosted with WWE Hall of Famer Devon Dudley) where he detailed why he would vote guilty, Alissa steps up to offer a perspective she felt was missing: the lived experience of a mother navigating complex maternal health issues.The conversation expands into a deep dive on women's health research, exploring how medical study over the past 50 years has lagged behind and why understanding mental health conditions like postpartum depression and postpartum psychosis remains so critical. Things heat up when Alissa asserts that Lindsay Clancy would never experience postpartum psychosis again without having more children, prompting Duke to challenge the claim, arguing that given future medical advancements, AI, and quantum computing, making definitive statements on evolving science is a dangerous gamble. This fierce clash of perspectives opens up a raw exchange that challenges assumptions on both sides of the courtroom.Episode HighlightsDevon & The Duke's Guilty Votes Unpacked: Addressing the original arguments made on Devon & The Duke, as Alissa G directly responds to both hosts and makes it clear how much key context a male perspective misses.Maternal Mental Health & Science: Examining the 50 year history of women's health research and how the justice system evaluates mental health conditions like postpartum psychosis.The Mother's Perspective: Alissa G brings her insight as an educator and mother, tackling aspects of the case male led commentary often misses.Future Tech vs. Medical Claims: Duke pushes back on predictions regarding future psychosis episodes, bringing emerging science, AI, and quantum computing into the debate.Debate Built on Respect: An impassioned, unfiltered conversation filled with tears, laughter, and sharp debate, maintained through mutual respect, love, and empathy.You will hear this case covered across mainstream media worldwide, but you will not hear this exact dynamic anywhere else.

Researchers have been trying to make invisible drones and camouflaged robots for years, before that it was cars and planes. They have used everything from transparent materials to light-bending optical systems or cloaks, but haven't been able to make it happen. But now, engineers at Northwestern University have created a drone that appears to vanish in plain sight after it takes flight. The team created the Phantom Twist, a drone that uses a concept called "motion blur" -- the effect that makes fast-spinning fans and propellers look like a ghostly smudge. The drone spins up to 25 times per second, which is too fast for the human eye to see clearly. While it isn't completely invisible, it appears to seamlessly blend into the background. The work could lead to drones that monitor wildlife, survey the environment and inspect infrastructure with less visual disruption.To design the drone, the engineers first used a computational model to generate some 20,000 drone configurations capable of stable flight. Next, they used AI and optimization algorithms to rearrange the drones' major components, including a motor, propeller, circuit board, counterweight and batteries. It was the algorithms that determined the ideal placement of the drone's components to minimize its visibility from virtually every viewing angle while allowing for stable flight. Northwestern's Michael Rubenstein, who led the project, said, "The design process was fully automated ... Then, when we were confident that a drone met all our criteria, we built it."According to the visibility metric, the optimized drone is about 10 times less visually perceptible than a conventional quadcopter.The new drone still has several limitations. For example, the propeller still makes noise, and some wires and support rods are still somewhat visible. Next, the team is working on new iterations with more transparent materials or quieter propulsion to make the Phantom Twist truly disappear.#AI, #Drone, #Drones, #Robotics, #Engineering, #Innovation, #NorthwesternUniversity, #ArtificialIntelligence, #Technology, #STEM, #Automation, #Research, #FutureTech, #Aviation, #Manufacturing

“If you do nothing, you will get nothing.” Former IndyCar champion Sam Schmidt joins host Alycia Anderson for a powerful conversation about spinal cord injury recovery, quadriplegia, adaptive technology, disability advocacy, neurorehabilitation, resilience, and life after paralysis. After a 180-mile-per-hour crash changed his life in an instant, Sam transformed an unimaginable diagnosis into a mission rooted in recovery, innovation, and purpose. “If you don't try, you won't know.” Sam shares how he went from winning his first IndyCar race in 1999 to surviving a devastating high-level spinal cord injury and waking up dependent on a ventilator. When doctors predicted a short life in a nursing home, his family refused to accept that prognosis. Their relentless advocacy connected Sam with intensive spinal cord injury rehabilitation that helped him breathe independently, rebuild his health, and begin creating a future with no finish line. Two important themes emerge from Sam's story: never accept one person's prognosis as the final answer, and learn how to advocate for the rehabilitation, equipment, and healthcare support you need. Sam and Alycia explore the realities of insurance advocacy, accessible healthcare, caregiver support, mental health, aging with disability, and long-term spinal cord injury rehabilitation. Sam explains how he negotiated for the equipment, therapy, and resources that supported his independence while challenging a healthcare system that too often limits recovery before it has truly begun. “Racing is my passion. DRIVEN Neuro is my purpose.” The conversation also explores Sam's memoir, No Finish Line: A Racer's Journey of Passion, Perseverance, and Purpose, his championship-winning racing career, and the growth of DRIVEN Neuro, a nonprofit expanding access to activity-based neurorecovery, adaptive fitness, neurological rehabilitation, wellness programs, and disability community support for people living with spinal cord injuries and other neurological conditions. Sam's story is more than a comeback. It is a call to action about self-advocacy, perseverance, accessible innovation, teamwork, and finding purpose after a life-changing injury. As Sam reminds us, progress may look different for every person, but possibility begins when we choose to take action. Racing, Recovery, Advocacy, and Purpose: The Big Takeaways from Sam Schmidt

Trump's Thursday Speech: New 2020 Election Claims, Democracy Fears & The Satellite Company That Could Change Earth Forever President Donald Trump is preparing a major national address Thursday night centered on newly declassified intelligence and renewed claims about the 2020 election. Reports indicate he plans to discuss alleged foreign interference and voting machine vulnerabilities, despite years of investigations, audits, and court rulings finding no evidence that foreign interference changed the outcome of the 2020 election. What could this speech mean for the future of American elections? Could it become part of a broader push for new federal election laws, including proof-of-citizenship voting proposals? And what role will Congress and the courts play if constitutional questions arise? Then, a story almost no one is talking about: Reflect Orbital. The startup wants to beam sunlight to Earth from space. Is it a technological breakthrough…or the beginning of a future with permanently illuminated skies, environmental consequences, and unintended risks?

The MOSAIC rule and the demand for Sonex Aircraft, rising jet fuel prices impacting airlines, JetBlue evaluating a merger, Essential Air Service, the Enhanced AT-CTI Initiative, and United Airlines' Relax Row in economy class. Also, SpaceX Starlink for GA pilots, a Southwest flight experience, and a conversation with the NTSB. Aviation News FAA's MOSAIC Rule To Help General Aviation Contributes To Sonex Failure The FAA's MOSAIC rule (Modernization of Special Airworthiness Certification) expands what can be certificated as light-sport aircraft using consensus standards. It broadens sport pilot privileges to give access to more aircraft types. The general aviation industry expected MOSAIC to create new opportunities for pilots and aircraft manufacturers. But unintended consequences may have arisen from removing limitations on light sport aircraft and making heavier aircraft available as entry-level airplanes. A drop in demand has contributed to Sonex Aircraft’s closure. Video: Sonex is Closing: A Message from Mark Schaible https://youtu.be/wl9H0N_r8kE?si=P_sAI7Wl_2vOJKo0 US airlines face fuel-driven financial shakeout Global oil prices are up. Brent crude is roughly 50% higher than a year ago. Jet fuel is up around 90% compared to a year ago. Since fuel typically accounts for 20% or more of an airline's total costs, we can expect higher fares, fuel surcharges, and capacity cuts. Profits could take a hit if airlines can't pass higher costs on to consumers fast enough. JetBlue Explores Selling Itself — Advisors Are Looking At United, Southwest And Alaska As Buyers JetBlue is reportedly evaluating selling itself to a competitor, such as United Airlines, Alaska Airlines, or Southwest Airlines. Any such deal could raise antitrust issues, and there is pressure to reach one soon, before the current political climate changes. Presque Isle council recommends JetBlue to keep serving airport After talking with JetBlue and American Airlines at a joint meeting with the airport advisory board, the Presque Isle City Council voted 5-2 to recommend JetBlue to continue serving the city's airport for the next four years. The Council's recommendation next goes to the U.S. Department of Transportation for a final decision on the Essential Air Service award, which may take several months. See the DOT Essential Air Service page. University of Maine at Augusta may start training air traffic controllers The FAA's Air Traffic Collegiate Training Initiative (AT-CTI) is a non-funded partnership between the FAA and approved institutions. The Enhanced AT-CTI Initiative was created to allow qualified institutions to provide students with equivalent FAA Academy air traffic control training. Program graduates are placed directly into a facility, with FAA oversight. They can immediately begin localized training at an air traffic facility. These graduates still must pass the Air Traffic Skills Assessment (ATSA) and meet medical and security requirements. United Relax Row: 777 & 787 Economy Seats That Transform Into A “Couch” United Airlines is introducing the Relax Row in economy on long-haul flights. Passengers can reserve a row of three seats, which can become a “lie-flat mattress-like space” for families with small children or passengers who want more space. Launching in 2027, the Relax Row will be available on more than 200 Boeing 787s. By 2030, the service will be available on Boeing 777s. Air New Zealand has licensed its Skycouch to United Airlines.

High-growth founders are leaving Dubai to build a sovereign AI stack in El Salvador. In this episode, we chat about how the Bitcoin Standard is attracting elite builders who are abandoning fiat luxury for true proof of work. Amir Starks (@starks_arq) explains the strategic transition from the Middle East to the volcanic energy of El Zonte to secure his agency's future.The disruption of legacy entertainment is accelerating as independent creators move to fire Hollywood with 21 million sats and generative AI. By leveraging open-source models and narrative consistency, small teams now out-compete the massive budgets of Disney. This shift represents a total liquidation of the old gatekeeper model through decentralized film production and a new content strategy for the digital age.El Salvador is positioning itself as a future tech hub by integrating Nvidia Blackwell into its national infrastructure. This technical evolution goes beyond simple Bitcoin adoption, creating a physical base for compute-heavy industries to thrive without IMF or state-level interference. The collision of sound money and computing power is turning the country into a digital fortress for the sovereign individual.Building a sovereign creative agency requires a radical departure from standard visual arts and fiat-based business models. Amir shares how ARQ uses Bitcoin to maintain a low time preference strategy while mastering creative direction outside the master's house. This approach allows builders to operate beyond the censorship risks inherent in legacy platforms.The future of storytelling allows authors to turn a book into a short film using AI for a fraction of traditional costs. As El Salvador proves the viability of the Bitcoin Standard, the rest of the world must choose between stagnation and the frontier.
