En este episodio analizamos en profundidad el misterioso gadget de inteligencia artificial que preparan Jony Ive, el legendario diseñador del iPhone, y Sam Altman, CEO de OpenAI, y que podría convertirse en el primer dispositivo de hardware de la compañía. Comentamos qué se sabe hasta ahora sobre su posible forma (pin, auriculares o incluso un lápiz o bolígrafo inteligente), por qué apuestan por un dispositivo sin pantalla y qué significa eso para el futuro de la computación personal más allá del smartphone. También repasamos las declaraciones de Chris Lehane en Davos, donde adelantó que OpenAI baraja lanzar este dispositivo en la segunda mitad de 2026, y debatimos cómo podría cambiar nuestra relación diaria con la IA y con el ecosistema de Apple y otros fabricantes. #OpenAIHardware #GadgetIA #JonyIve #SamAltman #AsistenteDeIA https://seoxan.es/crear_pedido_hosting Codigo Cupon "APPLE" PATROCINADO POR SEOXAN Optimización SEO profesional para tu negocio https://seoxan.es https://uptime.urtix.es PARTICIPA EN DIRECTO Deja tu opinión en los comentarios, haz preguntas y sé parte de la charla más importante sobre el futuro del iPad y del ecosistema Apple. ¡Tu voz cuenta! ¿TE GUSTÓ EL EPISODIO? ✨ Dale LIKE SUSCRÍBETE y activa la campanita para no perderte nada COMENTA COMPARTE con tus amigos applelianos SÍGUENOS EN TODAS NUESTRAS PLATAFORMAS: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Applelianos Telegram: https://t.me/+Jm8IE4n3xtI2Zjdk X (Twitter): https://x.com/ApplelianosPod Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/applelianos Apple Podcasts: https://apple.co/39QoPbO

In this episode of Mixture of Experts, host Tim Hwang is joined by Chris Hay, Kaoutar El Maghraoui and Martin Keen to unpack the biggest announcements from CES 2026. First up, NVIDIA's Jensen Huang revealed the Rubin platform—a chip architecture promising 5X the performance of Blackwell and slashing inference token costs by 10X. Does this cement NVIDIA's dominance? We also explore the wild world of CES gadgets. Then, we look at whether Meta's USD 2 Billion acquisition of Manus AI signals a major pivot toward enterprise agentic platforms. Later, we dissect DeepSeek's newpaper on manifold-constrained hyperconnections (MHC)—a smarter way to train models that prioritizes efficiency over brute-force scaling. Finally, we analyze new polling data revealing Americans' complex relationship with AI: optimistic about the benefits but deeply concerned about who controls it.

CES 2026 marks a clear turning point for AI, shifting away from novelty gadgets and toward serious, category-defining products from the industry's biggest players. This episode breaks down how Nvidia, AMD, Google, Amazon, and Samsung used CES as a roadmap for where AI infrastructure, devices, and assistants are headed next—and why the conference now feels less like a tech circus and more like a declaration of intent for the year ahead. In the headlines: Wall Street's underappreciated AI risks, inflation fears tied to data center buildouts, and why markets may be pricing in revolution faster than reality.Brought to you by:KPMG – Discover how AI is transforming possibility into reality.

Send us a textA tiny AI hologram that sits on your desk and smiles back at you sounds futuristic… until you realize how fast novelty slides into cringe. We kick things off by roasting the CES gadget everyone will meme, then pivot to the ideas underneath: why ambient AI is sneaking into our workspaces, how customization keeps us hooked, and where the line sits between companion and coach. From there, we dig into LEGO's new interactive bricks, the promise of light and sound in creative builds, and the practical headaches around price, collectibility, and what happens when electronics age inside once-timeless sets.The conversation shifts gears into the car world, where Sony teases an EV and manufacturers keep pushing paid features. We talk about the trade-offs between convenience and control, why cars now feel like subscription platforms, and how that changes what “ownership” means. That spirals into a passionate riff on real-life utility: sedans vs SUVs vs minivans, hauling space for gear and pets, and choosing vehicles that match how we actually live—not just how they're marketed.Then we get personal. We lay out goals we'll track this year: getting back to lifting with a home rack, rebuilding a 1992 Volvo wagon, and opening our anime queue to genres we usually skip for fresh creative fuel. On the career side, we map a clean path to the CompTIA trifecta with Network+, and we get candid about money literacy—HYSA vs savings, CDs, brokerage accounts, T-bills, and starting the investing journey without the fluff. We also confront a tough truth: turning a hobby into a business can kill the joy. Photography paid, but it drained us. Barbecue tastes amazing, but meat prices crush margins. Gourmet mushrooms, though, thread the needle—science, repeatability, and steady demand with a lean setup and real market interest.If you've been waiting for the right moment to set goals you'll actually keep, consider this your cue. Write one down, make it smaller, and start today.

Hump Day is here and Workforce Wednesday is back! So head to the website or the app to tell us where you're working for a chance to win freebies from GameDay Men's Health. Today is "National Bobblehead Day" and it's also "National Pass Gas Day"…which seems fitting since yesterday was "National Bean Day". In the news this morning, the Hilton hotel brand is removing a location in Minneapolis that refused to accept bookings from ICE agents, some chilling news regarding the MIT & Brown University shooter, and it's officially Girl Scout Cookie season! In sports, the Badgers got a nice win over UCLA last night, the Bucks take on the Golden State Warriors tonight, a look at the Wild Card round schedule, and the latest on the NFL coaches who've gotten fired over the last several days. Elsewhere in sports, the schedule for the College Football Playoffs & National Championship game, the NASCAR commissioner resigns, and Matt Kalil is suing his ex-wife for revealing the size of his manhood. We talked about what's on TV & streaming today/tonight. And we also talked about the worst pain we've ever felt. A deer that was trapped in a basement in Wisconsin was rescued by some wildlife officials, a lost engagement ring gets found, and a boy finally gets adopted after over 900 days in the foster care system. We took a look at some of the weirdest & most interesting gadgets that debuted at this year's CES in Vegas, and also talked about some hilariously incorrect predictions from the 1950's. Speaking of tech stuff…someone recently asked ChatGPT what it would do if it were human for a day. Kudos to these Pittsburgh fans who are turning a negative into a positive by donating to a charity affiliated with the Ravens kicker who missed the potential game-winning field goal on Sunday night. And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a guy who stole his ex-girlfriend's car WHILE she was in labor delivering his baby, a guy in China who survived after falling from the 15th floor of a building, a woman in Hong Kong who attacked a bunch of people & cops with a meat cleaver, a #FloridaMan who got arrested for trespassing while wearing some rather interesting things, and a guy in Italy who is suing a restaurant after one of their promotional videos on TikTok exposed him cheating on his wife.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

He has served as a leading critic of digital culture and social media, and his books include You Are Not a Gadget and Who Owns the Future? In 2018, Wired Magazine named him one of the 25 most influential people in technology of the previous 25 years. Time Magazine named him one of the 100 most influential people in the world. Jaron is currently the Prime Unifying Scientist at Microsoft's Office of the Chief Technology Officer, which spells out “Octopus”, in reference to his fascination with cephalopod neurology. He is also a musician and composer who has recently performed or recorded with Sara Bareilles, T Bone Burnett, Jon Batiste, Philip Glass, and many others.E. Glen Weyl is Founder and Research Lead at Microsoft Research's Plural Technology Collaboratory and Co-Founder of the Plurality Institute and RadicalxChange Foundation. He is the co-author of Radical Markets and Plurality and works at the intersection of economics, technology, democracy, and social institutions.Taylor Black is Director of AI & Venture Ecosystems in the Office of the Chief Technology Officer at Microsoft and the founding director of the Leonum Institute on Emerging Technologies and AI at The Catholic University of America. His background spans philosophy, law, and technology leadership.In this second part of our conversation, we talk about:1. The idea that modern technology and AI, in particular, have taken on religious or idolatrous qualities2. Why the Talmud offers a powerful model for collective intelligence without erasing individual voices3. The dangers of excessive anonymity in digital systems and AI training4. The idea of “superintelligences” as collective human systems like corporations, democracies, and religions5. Vatican-led efforts toward algorithmic ethics and the protection of human dignity6. Where Glen and Jaron disagree about human-centered AI7. AI as a tool for metacognition8.

In this episode, Travis and his producer share a loose, late‑night “roses and thorns” conversation about the early highs and lows of Travis's business journey—fueled by a festive candy-cane full of Fireball. The story moves from his very first $197 online sale for an unbuilt course to the realization that big-ticket investments and branding splurges do not guarantee results.​ On this episode we talk about: How a single listener voluntarily sending $197 for a future networking course unlocked Travis's belief that a small but engaged audience can fund real offers The path from that first pre-sale to masterminds, coaching, and a live event that generated a six-figure weekend and completely changed his sense of what was possible Painful lessons from dropping tens of thousands on masterminds and a fancy website before understanding cash flow, prioritization, and revenue-generating activities Why investing in your business is necessary but never guaranteed—and how to avoid confusing “looking legit online” with actually making money Eric's tongue‑in‑cheek “Alpha Influence / The Bull” bit and why blind trust in hype-y investment schemes is a terrible replacement for due diligence​ Top 3 Takeaways Small, early wins—like one person happily paying for your idea—can be more important to your trajectory than the dollar amount itself because they prove people will pay you for your expertise. Not all business investments are created equal; prioritize things that directly create offers, sales conversations, and cash flow before you pour money into websites, logos, and vanity upgrades. Risk is mandatory, but recklessness is optional—structure payments, manage runway, and always separate real opportunities from hype-driven schemes that promise “foolproof” returns. Notable Quotes “If you can build a brand and add value, people will want to give you money.” “It's a requirement to make these investments—but it is not a requirement that every investment pans out.” “You should absolutely invest in your business, but be wise enough to prioritize the things that actually generate revenue.” ✖️✖️✖️✖️

Thank you to our Patron One In A Thousand who requested this week's book! They wrote in to us earlier this year, saying: "...At some point in your lives, you've probably experienced media that you felt was ALMOST really good, but for whatever reason it just wasn't, and media that was almost really good can be just as frustrating as outright bad media because you can see that it just needed a little bit of fixing. That's how I felt about The Third Force. It's a tie-in novel to an obscure Japanese multimedia franchise from the 90's called Gadget...Marc Laidlaw was given a lot of creative freedom to write his own interpretation of the story, including more worldbuilding and character development, to mixed results...Laidlaw has confirmed that several characters and plot points from this book went on to inspire elements of the Half-Life series, which he became the lead writer for a couple years after writing this...In a way, The Third Force is almost like a rough first draft for ideas that Laidlaw would execute in a better way later." In addition to our usual barnyard language, today's episode includes discussion or mention of brainwashing, torture, murder, and general high mind loss.

Summary In this episode of Armed American Radio, host Mark Walters discusses various pressing issues surrounding gun rights, recent terror attacks, and the implications of gun control legislation. The conversation includes insights from guests Neil McCabe and AWR Hawkins, focusing on the Australia shooting incident and the cultural attitudes towards violence and self-defense. The episode emphasizes the importance of being prepared to defend oneself and the role of organizations like the NRA in advocating for gun rights. In this conversation, Mark Walters and his guests discuss various aspects of gun rights, self-defense, and the implications of gun control laws. They delve into the complexities surrounding open carry laws, the legal ramifications of self-defense incidents, and the challenges faced by law enforcement in high-stress situations. The discussion also covers the recent events in Australia, highlighting the failures of gun control measures and the impact of gun-free zones on public safety. The guests emphasize the importance of armed citizens in preventing violence and the misleading statistics often used to argue against gun rights. Takeaways The importance of self-defense in today’s society. Gun control laws often leave law-abiding citizens vulnerable. Cultural attitudes towards violence can impact responses to threats. The NRA plays a crucial role in advocating for gun rights. Recent terror attacks highlight the need for personal preparedness. Law enforcement’s response time can be critical in crisis situations. The process of gun control can be seen as punitive. Public perception of gun ownership is influenced by media narratives. Understanding the implications of political decisions on gun rights is essential. Community awareness and involvement are key in advocating for self-defense rights. Open carry can divide communities, even in gun-friendly states. Law enforcement’s response in self-defense situations is complex and often scrutinized. Self-defense incidents can lead to legal battles, regardless of the circumstances. Gun control measures in Australia have not effectively prevented violence. Gun-free zones may create vulnerabilities rather than enhance safety. Statistics on gun violence can be misleading and do not always reflect the reality of armed citizens. The presence of firearms does not inherently lead to danger; context matters. Campus carry laws can empower students to defend themselves. The nanny state can hinder effective responses to threats. Public perception of firearms is often shaped by fear rather than facts.

The B-29 Superfortress and the Battle of Omaha — Arthur Herman — Herman recounts the genesis of the B-29 Superfortress bomber, conceived after General Hap Arnold consulted with Charles Lindbergh in 1939. The B-29represented the ultimate expression of air supremacy doctrine, demanding revolutionary technologies including pressurized crew cabins and remote-controlled gun turrets that did not yet exist. Bill Knudsen directed the program, overcoming severe delays and persistent technical deficiencies. Knudsen won the "Battle of Omaha" by insisting that aircraft be extensively modified after assembly to achieve operational flight status, thereby integrating a massive female industrial workforce into B-29 production processes. 1945 LOS ALAMOS.
