Welcome to another episode of the Legal Nurse Podcast, where healthcare, technology, and the law come together. In this episode, Pat Iyer is joined by Dr. Robert Pearl, a plastic surgeon, author, and former CEO of the Kaiser Permanente Medical Group, to discuss how generative AI is shaping healthcare today. Dr. Robert Pearl, who teaches at Stanford and wrote ChatGPT MD: How AI Helped Patients and Doctors Take Back Control of American Medicine, shares insights drawn from decades of leadership in large medical systems and his interest in emerging technology. Pat Iyer and Robert Pearl explain what sets generative AI tools such as ChatGPT, Gemini, and Claude apart from earlier artificial intelligence systems. They discuss how these tools are being used by clinicians to support diagnosis, patient monitoring, and treatment decisions, while also helping patients play a more active role in their care worldwide. The conversation also covers key concerns, including the reliability of AI-generated information, the danger of depending too heavily on technology, and the need for clinicians and patients to work together when using these tools to support good medical decisions. This episode is useful for legal nurse consultants, healthcare professionals, and anyone curious about how technology is influencing modern medicine. It offers practical perspectives on current uses, ethical questions, and what may lie ahead for AI in healthcare. What you'll learn in this episode on Navigating AI in Medicine: Opportunities, Risks, and Real-Life Applications Here are five intriguing questions that this podcast episode answers: What is generative AI, and how does it differ from earlier artificial intelligence used in healthcare? How are physicians and clinicians using generative AI to support diagnosis and patient care today? What risks exist when relying on generative AI for medical guidance, and how can those risks be reduced? How can generative AI help with time limitations and workload pressures faced by healthcare providers? How could generative AI change the management of chronic conditions and improve healthcare outcomes worldwide?

You dig into the little things macOS quietly does for you, starting with the surprising truth about Clipboard History and why macOS 26 might feel slower than you’d expect. You explore ways to rein things in, from taming runaway apps to making better use of iPhone Mirroring and clever video capture tricks. Along the way, you're reminded that old hardware still has value if you give it purpose, and that blind trust in AI troubleshooting can lead you astray faster than it helps. This is where staying curious beats staying complacent, and where “Don't Get Caught” is more than a catchphrase. Then you move into the real-world problem solving that defines Mac Geek Gab: networking quirks that break expectations, WiFi settings that ignore reservations, and router updates that change the rules midstream. You also get clear, practical guidance on buying the right Mac, migrating only what you actually need, hunting down duplicate files, and reclaiming menu bar space from the notch. Even photo libraries get a reality check, helping you decide what truly needs to live inside Photos. It's a fast-moving episode packed with answers you can use immediately, designed to keep your setup efficient, intentional, and frustration-free. 00:00:00 Mac Geek Gab 1121 for Monday, December 22nd, 2025 December 22nd: International Day of Mathematics MGG Monthly Giveaway – Enter to win a copy of OpenIn!

In this rare and deeply personal conversation, I was fortunate to sit down with Ruth as she opened up about the defining moments of her life, from learning the power of smart risk to helping stabilize the global economy in 2008. Her and I dive deep into Google's AI strategy, how competition from ChatGPT ultimately makes the company stronger, the Nobel Prize–winning breakthroughs behind AlphaFold and Ruth's candid view on how close we really are to finding a cure for cancer. Ruth also shares her “battle scars”, hiring philosophy, her vision for the future of teleportation technology, and the advice she would give to anyone looking to pivot their career successfully.A big thanks to the Google team in Riyadh for facilitating this shoot at their beautiful offices. 0:00 Intro 3:39 Leading Through the 2008 Financial Crisis 5:37 Flexibility vs. Rigidity in Career Paths 8:41 Thriving in Google's Culture of Innovation 11:12 Google's Approach to AI Competition 13:35 Unlocking Creativity with Gemini 17:14 Making Bold Bets at Google 19:20 Data Privacy and Security at Google 21:34 Google's Investment in Saudi Arabia & Vision 2030 27:58 Future Tech: Teleportation & AI in Healthcare 32:10 Curing Cancer & Personal Battle 35:40 Life Lessons: Risk, Learning, and Mentorship 40:02 Reflecting on Regrets and Closing

The Cosmic Highlights of 2026 (Astrology , Numerology & The Year of the Fire Horse)Step into the mystical mayhem of 2026 — a year coded for rebellion, rebirth, and raw spiritual awakening. This is not a soft year. It's a phoenix year. A destiny year. A year where the cosmos puts the collective in its main-character arc.Breakdowns:

Here it is! We review the year where scaling large AI models hit its ceiling, Google reclaimed momentum with efficient vertical integration, and the market shifted from hype to viability. Join us as we talk about why human-in-the-loop is failing, why generative AI agents validating other agents compounds errors, and how small expert data quietly beat the big models.• Google's resurgence with Gemini 3.0 and TPU-driven efficiency• Monetization pressures and ads in co-pilot assistants• Diminishing returns from LLM scaling• Human-in-the-loop pitfalls and incentives• Agents vs validation and compounding error• Small, high-quality data outperforming synthetic• Expert systems, causality, and interpretability• Research trends return toward statistical rigor• 2026 outlook for ROI, governance, and trustWe remain focused on the responsible use of AI. And while the market continues to adjust expectations for return on investment from AI, we're excited to see companies exploring "return on purpose" as the new foray into transformative AI systems for their business. What are you excited about for AI in 2026? What did you think?

In this week's show we move from philosophy to historical practice by exploring the most profound intersections of high technology and ritual magick from the ancient world and discuss precisely what it has to do with computers today. We explore the tale of the Golem of Prague, the alchemy of building a microprocessor and how silica has influenced our entire evolution. In the extended show we discuss the ancient Egyptian Ushabti doll and how they worked much like the spiritual equivalent to modern computing's Daemon alongside what science myth granted such basic little creatures such a loaded name.

The House of #EdTech SmackDown is back — and episode 265 delivers the 12th annual celebration of educator-shared tools, ideas, and inspiration. This fan-favorite episode brings together contributions from teachers, coaches, podcasters, and edtech leaders who share what made a real impact in classrooms and schools throughout 2025. From AI-powered writing feedback and study tools to creative multimedia platforms, productivity apps, and wellness tech, this episode is packed with practical ideas you can use right away. #EdTech Thought: Integration Isn't Seasonal I focused on a common trap in education: waiting for the "right time" to change practice. New semesters, new marking periods, or new years often feel like the natural moment to reset. But great technology integration doesn't follow a calendar. It happens incrementally, through reflection, experimentation, and iteration, even when the school year feels messy and unfinished. The takeaway is simple but powerful: You don't need permission from the calendar to teach differently tomorrow than you did today. The 2025 EdTech SmackDown Recommendations This year's SmackDown features a wide range of tools and ideas, spanning AI, creativity, productivity, assessment, and wellness. Chris's Recommendations Raina AI introduces creative ways to support studying and student engagement, including the concept of "Brain Rot" videos. Genially for interactive and gamified learning experiences. 123Apps as an all-in-one media creation toolkit. Chronicling America from the Library of Congress for primary source research. ICE - https://icemenubar.app/ Latest - https://max.codes/latest/ Rocket - https://matthewpalmer.net/rocket/ AI & Writing Support Beat the Computer (shared by Stephanie Howell) helps students improve writing by focusing on feedback and revision rather than replacement. Gemini is highlighted as a tools for educators, including writing Google Apps Scripts to automate workflows (Dan Gallagher). AI, Engagement & Study Tools Brisk Teaching and custom GPTs (shared by Dr. Dan Kreiness) demonstrate how AI can support instruction without removing teacher agency. Brainfreeze AI (Matt Miller) allows educators to build their own AI agents for classroom use. Creativity, Media & Design Canva Code and ongoing innovation within Microsoft 365 (Martin Byford). QuickTales (Batsheva Frankel), which blends audio storytelling with formative assessment. Adobe Express animations and digital signage workflows (Brian Carpenter). Content, Research & Instruction Wayground (Quizizz) for video-based instruction and AI-supported grading (Rebecca Autry). Desmos / Amplify phonics review tools (Linda Hummer). Derek Larson's Annual SmackDown Deep Dive No SmackDown episode would be complete without Derek Larson, who once again delivers a rapid-fire breakdown of tools and ideas educators should know about. This year's highlights include: Google Keep for organization and workflow StoryGraph for reading and reflection Instapaper for managing long-form content Teaching AI across multiple content areas Health and wellness apps like Capsule, Easy Fast, and Sleep++ Derek's segment reinforces an important theme of the episode: productivity and wellness tools matter just as much as classroom tools. You can explore Derek's curated archive of recommendations at https://appsmackdown.com House of #EdTech VIP: You The episode closes with the House of #EdTech VIP segment — and once again, the VIP is YOU the listener. I reflect on the fact that this podcast exists because educators are willing to share, contribute, and support one another. The SmackDown isn't just an episode; it's a snapshot of a professional community learning together.

Drew and Rory stumble back from the holiday chaos—one fresh off vacation, the other barely resurrected from a mystery NYC illness.Between fever dreams and booger fingers, they somehow manage to tear into ChatGPT's Image 1.5 disappointment, expose why Nano Banana Pro is quietly dominating their workflows, and reveal the Weavy automation setup that's actually working (while FreePik continues its reign of mediocre terror). The duo gets brutally honest about why OpenAI feels like it's slipping, why negative prompting might be more important than what you actually want to create, and how to build your own custom AI tools in Google AI Studio without selling your soul to another subscription. Plus: vintage Kodak rally cars, the art of perfect thumbnails, coconut water in cocktails, and why their illness prevention protocols involve more vitamin C than common sense. If you survived their holiday absence and made it through the mandatory 20-minute ramble tax, you'll be rewarded with legitimate workflow gold that actually ships.---⏱️ Midjourney Fast Hour00:01 A Mr. Sniffles cold open05:18 Prompting while sick, then getting cooked on X07:35 An “Am I an AI artist?” reality check15:08 Moodboards, unsettling styles, and “what counts as art”27:39 Blade, Pluribus, and movie still inspiration sites31:42 Midjourney V8 quiet, Style Creator alpha changes37:45 The pace of releases and tool fatigue40:37 World models, Veo 3, and the next leap43:28 ChatGPT Image 1.5 talk and why it's still behind46:12 Nano Banana Pro flex, Freepik waits, and why it matters49:17 Weavy workflow walkthrough: from ref to shot list55:26 Contact sheets, “mini LoRA” vibes, and system rules59:14 Kling o1 keyframes: why 3–10 seconds is a cheat code01:03:32 Real text and brand risks in outputs01:06:52 Build your own Nano tool in Google AI Studio01:08:01 Writing models: ChatGPT vs Gemini vs Claude01:09:23 Negative prompting becomes the main event01:11:25 Wrap, thumbnails, and holiday chaos

Every year, goblin-like creatures called Kallikantzaroi stop sawing through the World Tree, crawl up from the underworld, and spend the twelve days of Christmas stealing babies, destroying homes, and terrorizing anyone unlucky enough to cross their path, pooping all over the place while they are at it.IN THIS EPISODE: If your kids think Elf on a Shelf is creepy – just tell them that kids in Greece and its surrounding countries are terrorized each Christmas for a full twelve days by nocturnal goblins that like to defecate all over your home!

(The Tower of London's Christmas Eve Ghost) *** A serving of poisoned Christmas pie causes the death of Captain David Paye on Christmas day, 1882. But who had a motive? (A Christmas Poisoning) *** People worldwide have been celebrating Christmas for hundreds and hundreds of years – but not all of those years were joyous for everyone. For example, those who happened to be black living in America while slavery was still legal. What was Christmas like for them? (Christmas As a Slave In America) *** In that song, “It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year” there is the line “there will be scary ghost stories”… why on earth would a Christmas song have a line like that? We'll look at that song – and other Christmas songs – that are a lot darker than you might know. (The Darker Side of Christmas Carols) *** We're all familiar with the classic Christmas ghost tale, “A Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens – but before that novel, there was another ghost story of Christmas, a purportedly true story. (A Ghost Story of Christmas) *** In 1897, Dr. Philip O'Hanlon was asked by his young daughter whether Santa Claus was real. His suggestion for her to find an answer has resulted in something so famous, it has practically become a meme. (Yes, Virginia, There Is a Santa Claus) *** December 16, 1965… Gemini 6 and 7 have just completed the first ever manned rendezvous between spacecraft, making history. But they were about to achieve another first in space exploration… and a first for Christmas!

Send us a textBook a reading with Jill:  www.jilljardineastrology.comInstagram: Cosmicscenewithjilljardine Astrologer Hilary Harley: www.hilaryharley.comThe sky flips the script in 2026, and you can feel the torque. We move from years of dense earth-and-water drag into the fast lanes of air and fire, where ideas travel farther, tech and transit evolve, and courage becomes a daily practice. With Pluto settling into Aquarius, Neptune and Saturn igniting Aries, and Uranus blasting into Gemini, the first half of the year accelerates timelines and demands clear choices.We walk through the big arcs and the exact dates that matter. January offers a final Capricorn cleanout before an Aquarian influx invites upgrades, collaboration, and bold thinking. February is the crucible: a Leo full moon, an Aquarius new moon solar eclipse, Uranus stationing direct, and Saturn entering Aries—all while Mercury readies a retrograde. The message is not panic, but preparation. Build buffers, double-check logistics, and use grounded rituals to steady your nervous system.March reframes the narrative. A total lunar eclipse across Virgo-Pisces highlights health, healing, and policy, then Jupiter turns direct in Cancer to buoy homes, families, and real estate. The vernal equinox lands as Mercury goes direct, opening a rare all-planets-forward launch window for decisive moves. April restores balance with a Libra full moon and an Aries new moon, then changes gear as Uranus enters Gemini, kicking off seven years of disruption in communication, travel, education, and media. May amplifies the money axis with a powerful Scorpio full moon and Pluto stationing retrograde, revealing what's been concealed in markets and shared resources. Late May's blue moon across Gemini-Sagittarius broadcasts global signals worth heeding.June keeps powder dry until the finale: a Gemini new moon sets ideas in motion, then a Capricorn full moon arrives the same day Mercury turns retrograde and Mars enters Gemini. Travel and tech are spicy—plan with care. The payoff comes quickly as Jupiter strides into Leo, lighting creativity, performance, and generous leadership. Across it all, we emphasize practical strategy: when to launch, when to review, and how to translate cosmic acceleration into sustainable progress.

За останні три роки ChatGPT став ледь не загальною назвою для всіх чатботів (як Xerox для принтерів). Але нещодавні цифри показують, що дітище OpenAI уже не настільки вабить користувачів, як його конкурент — Gemini від Google. Але чому? Відповідь – у новому епізоді подкасту Найцікавіші тексти NV. Більше озвучених текстів – у розділі Аудіоверсії матеріалів на сайті NV за підпискою.  

In this episode, we break down comments from Robby Stein, VP of Product for Google Search, and what they reveal about Gemini 3's direction and capabilities. We explore how Gemini 3 fits into Google's broader search and AI strategy and what it could mean for users and developers going forward.Get the top 40+ AI Models for $20 at AI Box: ⁠⁠https://aibox.aiConor's AI Course: https://www.ai-mindset.ai/coursesConor's AI Newsletter: https://www.ai-mindset.ai/Jaeden's AI Hustle Community: https://www.skool.com/aihustle-See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

With modern development, we're almost never coding alone. Google, MDN, Stack Overflow, and now AI tools like ChatGPT, Copilot, and Gemini are always just a tab away. But what happens if that safety net disappears? In this edition of Web News, we explore the idea of offline programming - whether it's still realistic going into 2026, what skills it actually tests, and whether there's any real value in trying to code without constant internet access.

A VAIO é uma marca que marcou gerações e até hoje desperta curiosidade e dúvidas entre consumidores brasileiros. Mas o que muita gente ainda não sabe é como funciona, na prática, a parceria entre a marca japonesa e a Positivo Tecnologia no Brasil. Neste episódio do Podcast Canaltech, Sérgio Oliveira, editor de hardware do Canaltech, conversa com Daniela Collin, diretora de Procurement e Desenvolvimento de Produtos da Positivo, sobre os bastidores dessa relação: como os produtos são desenvolvidos em conjunto com o Japão, quais padrões técnicos e de design precisam ser seguidos, o papel da fábrica de Manaus e como a VAIO chegou à marca de 1 milhão de dispositivos vendidos no país.

In this Breaking Analysis, David Floyer and I set forth our thinking around what we believe is a misplaced narrative in the market. We'll explain what we think the market is missing and why NVIDIA's forthcoming product lineup will reset the narrative. We'll also look at the economics of search, LLMs and chatbots and share why OpenAI, while facing many challenges, is in a stronger position than many believe; and why Google, while clearly a leader in AI, remains challenged to preserve what many believe is the greatest business in the history of the technology business.

Åhead of our last Friday episode of 2025, FCC Chairman Brendan Carr did The Vergecast an enormous favor: he went in front of Congress and said a bunch of wild things about regulation. So, of course, Nilay and David have to talk about them. For a really long time. After that, the hosts look at all the ways YouTube and Netflix are becoming more like one another, and then update the Go90 Scale of Doomed Streaming Services to round out the year. Finally, in the lightning round, there's talk of web apps, EVs, Bluesky, and the metaverse.

ChatGPT Images (aka OpenAI's Image 1.5) can create stunning AI images, text and more. But how does it compare to Google's Nanobanana Pro? We dive in… way too deep. Plus, new GPT-5.2 Codex, Gemini 3 Flash, YouTube's new vibecoded games, the controversy around Generative AI and game developer Larian Studios, a lego-like robot and, of course, seeing how AI video can cause soap opera actress hair to endlessly grow.

Phillip and Brian forecast the year ahead, from Walmart becoming America's healthcare provider to prediction markets reshaping news, autonomous vehicles hitting critical mass, and the consumerization of everything. 2026 brings economic correction, political realignment, and consumers seizing control from institutions.Our Vision:Walmart will emerge as America's front-line health system through accessibility and affordabilityPredicted losers in 2026: Target, Family Dollar, and middle-class brick-and-mortar retailersSelf-sovereign health brands will win as consumers self-diagnose and optimizePrediction markets will replace traditional polls as the new pulse of public sentimentAutonomous vehicles will reach an inflection point with infrastructure support comingOpenAI will lose enterprise ground to Anthropic and Gemini as trust erodesEconomic correction will trigger a political anti-AI platform for midtermsCraft and analog work will become a cultural rebellion against synthetic content saturationKey Quotes:"2026 is the year that consumers and companies are shifting from relying on institutions to relying on themselves." – Phillip [00:06:21]"John Furner was the head of Sam's Club. You know who Sam's Club had to compete with? Costco. This is the guy who had to build a business that was up against the best business in the world and was successful at it." – Brian [00:12:26]"Walmart is that front door for most Americans because you can diagnose your own health issues...It's going to be the point of most convenience for you. It's also gonna be the place that's most affordable." – Phillip [00:16:22]"The consumerization of health care is the trend of the year." – Brian [00:16:52]"Brands dependent on borrowed authority—any brand whose legitimacy depends on that credentialed expert or an editor or celebrity or institutional validation rather than measurable outcomes will suffer." – Phillip [00:37:38]"We have become the United Pottersvilles of America. The idea that communities are at the center of things is the fairy tale." – Brian [00:53:16]Associated Links:Check out Future Commerce on YouTubeCheck out Future Commerce+ for exclusive content and save on merch and printSubscribe to Insiders and The Senses to read more about what we are witnessing in the commerce worldListen to our other episodes of Future CommerceHave any questions or comments about the show?

Hey everyone! Decoder senior producers Kate Cox and Nick Statt here. We've had a big year, including nearly 100 episodes, a new YouTube channel, an ad-free podcast feed, and a slate of great guest hosts while Nilay was on parental leave. It's been a lot! We've also had a lot of great questions and comments this year from you, our audience. So we pulled together all the feedback we've received on topics like CarPlay, Monday episode guest suggestions, and — of course — AI. And then we turned the tables on Nilay to ask him his thoughts on the past 12 months: What we liked, what we want to improve, and how he's making decisions for Decoder in the new year.  Links:  Answering your biggest Decoder questions, 2024 edition | Decoder The DoorDash Problem | Decoder How decision making changes when AI answers are cheap and (too) easy | Decoder Why GM will give you Gemini — but not CarPlay | Decoder Rivian CEO: ‘We're really convicted' about skipping CarPlay | Decoder How SharkNinja took over the home, with CEO Mark Barrocas | Decoder Why Tubi CEO Anjali Sud thinks free TV can win again | Decoder Disney accuses Google of copyright infringement following OpenAI deal | The Verge Subscribe to The Verge to access the ad-free version of Decoder!
