From all of us at Cloud Realities, MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!! Back in our December 2022 Christmas special, we explored the far reaches of reality, asking whether we live in a simulation and if that even matters. Now, we return to that question with fresh perspectives and new challenges…In this last Cloud Realities podcast of 2025, Dave, Esmee and Rob return to the simulation with Anders Indset, philosopher, author, and long-time friend of the show, revisiting a question that's been quietly running underneath everything we've discussed since 2022: If reality itself is information and what does that mean for being human?

In case you missed it, this episode tackles one of the biggest shifts quietly reshaping healthcare marketing: search is no longer about winning keywords. It is about understanding intent, context, and how AI now mediates discovery. Chris Boyer and Reed Smith revisit a timely conversation on how generative AI is changing the rules of SEO and why many traditional optimization tactics no longer hold up. As search results become AI-assembled experiences rather than ranked lists, health systems are being forced to rethink how they create, structure, and distribute content. This ICYMI episode explores why SEO now looks less like a checklist and more like a precision sport, where strategy, patience, and adaptability matter more than brute force tactics. Thought leader Carrie Liken joins the conversation to unpack what Google's generative search future means for healthcare organizations, including the rise of zero-click discovery, the collapse of keyword-first strategies, and how hospitals can stay visible when AI becomes the first interaction layer. If your SEO playbook still assumes users are clicking blue links, this is one worth revisiting.

Generative UI is quietly changing how digital products work — and Google Labs' experimental browser Disco is a perfect example of that shift.Not what buttons look like.But how interfaces are created in the first place.In this episode of Future of UX, I explore what happens when interfaces are no longer fixed screens, but generated on the fly based on user intent, context, and goals.Using Disco and its GenTabs feature as a lens, we talk about:why browsing is shifting from search-first to goal-firsthow UI becomes a temporary, situational response rather than a static artifactand why trust, transparency, and responsibility become core UX challenges in generative systemsThis is not a tool review or a hype episode.It's a UX-first perspective on what Generative UI signals for designers, product teams, and anyone shaping digital experiences.If you work in UX, product, or design strategy, this episode will help you understand what's actually changing and why it matters.Become part of the conversation:Please share your thoughts here: Users casually creating their own apps now?

How do you build a real business — not just a product — inside a marketplace like Amazon? And how does generative strategy change the way entrepreneurs think about scale, risk, and value creation?In this episode of The Value Creators Podcast, Hunter Hastings talks with Neil Twa, founder and coach of Voltage Holdings, to break down what it really takes to build, operate, and exit successful marketplace-based companies. Neil explains his Train–Equip–Activate framework, how to separate business-building from product-picking, and why discipline, patience, and marketplace fit matter more than trends or hacks.Key Insights:Why marketplaces reward systems, not spontaneity — and how most sellers fail before they truly start.Generative entrepreneurship vs. opportunistic entrepreneurship: building for scale rather than chasing outcomes.Why the goal isn't just revenue — it's margin, defensibility, customer value, and eventually sellability.This episode is a hands-on masterclass for entrepreneurs who want to move beyond “Amazon hustle culture” and instead build asset-backed, generative companies that endure.Resources:➡️ Learn What They Didn't Teach You In Business School: The Value Creators Online Business CourseConnect with Neil Twa on LinkedInLearn more about Voltage HoldingsGet the book Almost Automated Income with FBA: Build a Profitable Lifestyle-Driven Amazon Business.

All but the last 20 minutes of this episode should be comprehensible to non-physicists.Steve explains where frontier AI models are in understanding frontier theoretical physics. The best analogy is to a “brilliant but unreliable genius colleague”!He describes a specific example: the use of AI in recent research in quantum field theory (Tomonaga-Schwinger integrability conditions applied to state-dependent modifications of quantum mechanics), work now accepted for publication in Physics Letters B after peer review. Remarkably, the main idea in the paper originated de novo from GPT-5.Links:X discussion - https://x.com/hsu_steve/status/1996034522308026435Companion paper: Theoretical Physics With Generative AI - https://drive.google.com/file/d/16sxJuwsHoi-fvTFbri9Bu8B9bqA6lr1H/viewPhysics paper - https://arxiv.org/abs/2511.15935 | https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0370269325008111Related discussion of AI and theoretical physics with Prof. Nirmalya Kajuri (IIT) and Prof. Jonathan Oppenheim (UCL) - https://youtu.be/BRuDd3l0e3kRelated video: AIs Win Math Olympiad Gold: Prof. Lin Yang (UCLA) – Manifold #97 - https://youtu.be/8JeRCqNg7RcChapter markers:(00:00) - Intro: AI discussion with specialized physics at the end (03:40) - The current AI landscape for science: frontier models, Co-Scientist, and recent math breakthroughs (11:01) - Why models help and why they fail: errors, deep confabulation, and the research risk (15:54) - The Generator–Verifier workflow: how chaining model inference suppresses mistakes (23:30) - Project origin: testing models on Hsu's older nonlinear QM/QFT work (30:35) - The “GPT-5 moment”: Tomonaga–Schwinger angle appears and produces the key equation (40:35) - Wild goose chases & a practical heuristic: axiomatic QFT detour; Generator-Verifier convergence (51:44) - Referee-driven test case: Kaplan–Rajendran model, past-lightcone geometry, and verification (55:55) - Tooling & outlook: automation prototype, chaining into “supermodels,” where this is headed (59:39) - Physics slides (advanced): TS integrability, microcausality, and why nonlinearity threatens locality –Steve Hsu is Professor of Theoretical Physics and of Computational Mathematics, Science, and Engineering at Michigan State University.

In this episode, we discussed the impact of generative AI on the PR industry, featuring Katie Earlam from 72 Point and Stuart Bruce from Purposeful Relations on their latest report findings. They highlighted that 44% of people trust AI more than the government, and 55% trust traditional media. Earned media remains the most influential input for AI, with 95% of citations coming from unpaid editorial sources. The conversation emphasised the importance of original content, relevance, and recency in PR strategies. Practical steps include frequently publishing news via earned media, auditing AI footprints, and ensuring factual information. The discussion underscored the need for PR professionals to proactively influence AI-generated content to maintain trust and accuracy.View reports:72Point and Purposeful Relations: Hold the Front Page: Traditional Media's Influence in the Age of AIPurposeful Relations: The Impact of Generative Relations and CommunicationsOnePoll: Trust, Truth and the Algorithm

AI is failing most companies, trapping employees in digital exhaustion. The real problem isn't the technology, but the organization itself. Forget fixing your models—the path to true transformation is redesigning your workflows, structure, and human collaboration to finally work with AI. In this episode, Rebecca Hinds, Head of the Work AI Institute at Glean, unpacks insights from the Work Transformation 100 study, revealing what 100+ leaders, technologists, and researchers are doing differently to make AI actually work. You'll learn how AI needs to be embedded in the flow of work, why organizational structure eats AI for breakfast, how centralization and decentralization must coexist, and how leaders can avoid automating the soul of work by preserving ownership, creativity, and accountability. Rebecca breaks down the emerging collaboration between HR and IT, the rise of agentic workflows, the role of telemetry data in measuring AI adoption, and why flattening org charts for the sake of AI often backfires. She also shares real examples of bottom-up and top-down AI change, the impact of digital exhaustion, and the critical importance of redesigning processes and incentives before redesigning technology. This episode is every CHRO's playbook to lead AI transformation with human insight, organizational clarity, and people-first strategy, not hype. ________________ This Episode is sponsored by Glean: The AI Transformation 100 is here — Glean's Work AI Institute reveals what's really working with AI at work The AI Transformation 100, authored by Dr. Rebecca Hinds, Head of the Work AI Institute at Glean and Stanford's Bob Sutton surfaces 100 hard-won lessons from leaders actually deploying AI at scale.

fal is building the infrastructure layer for the generative media boom. In this episode, founders Gorkem Yurtseven, Burkay Gur, and Head of Engineering Batuhan Taskaya explain why video models present a completely different optimization problem than LLMs, one that is compute-bound, architecturally volatile, and changing every 30 days. They discuss how fal's tracing compiler, custom kernels, and globally distributed GPU fleet enable them to run more than 600 image and video models simultaneously, often faster than the labs that trained them. The team also shares what they're seeing from the demand side: AI-native studios, personalized education, programmatic advertising, and early engagement from Hollywood. They argue that generative video is following a trajectory similar to early CGI—initial skepticism giving way to a new medium with its own workflows, aesthetics, and economic models.Hosted by Sonya Huang, Sequoia Capital

In this episode of The Ross Simmonds Show, Ross dives deep into one of the most fundamental marketing shifts of our time — the emergence of Generative Engine Optimization (GEO). As AI-powered discovery tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Google AI Overviews, Reddit Answers, TikTok Search, and more evolve, traditional SEO strategies are no longer enough. Ross unpacks how marketers need to rethink content creation, distribution, and visibility across platforms, focusing not just on ranking, but on being cited, trusted, and remembered. Whether you're an SEO pro, a content marketer, or someone navigating the changing digital landscape, this episode offers a powerful perspective on where discovery is heading and how you can position your brand for success. Key Takeaways and Insights: 1. The Shift from Traditional SEO to GEO - The discovery journey is changing — not all search begins (or ends) on Google. - GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) is not just about keywords and backlinks, but about engaging with AI-powered platforms like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, You.com, Reddit, TikTok, YouTube, and more. - Terminology wars (AISEO, AEO, GEO) are less important than understanding the strategic implications of the shift. 2. Where AI Discovery is Happening - AI overviews and LLMs (large language models) pull data from varied sources, not just webpages — Reddit, YouTube, TikTok, and UGC are key. - Clicking is becoming less important as AI agents deliver answers before users even leave the platform. 3. YouTube's Role in GEO - YouTube isn't just social media — it's the second-biggest search engine and a major citation source for LLMs. - Talking head videos, product comparisons, and keyword-aligned titles matter more than ever. - A poor YouTube strategy (short, shallow clips) means your audience never finds you. 4. Listicles, PR, and Affiliate Strategy in the AI Age - AI often weighs citations based on list ranking — being #8 consistently limits visibility. - Your affiliate and digital PR strategies must now consider how high you appear on listicles that AI sources from. - Move beyond backlinks to placements, citations, and brand mentions across high-impact domains. 5. Tailoring Content for Audience-Specific Queries - LLMs recognize nuances: “best for beginners” vs. “best for enterprise” matters. - Brands should create multiple landing pages tailored to different personas (as long as it's high quality and not duplicated). 6. The Difference Between SEO and GEO - GEO includes SEO, but it's broader — it encompasses TikTok search, Instagram Reels, Reddit, and any platform with discovery. - GEO is about visibility in AI-powered interfaces, not just search rankings. 7. The Predictive Future of Discovery - Personalized AI results are here: Google's AI Overviews may use Gmail, Calendar, Chrome history to shape responses. - The future consumer journey might completely bypass websites and search engines.

Interview with Segun Lawson, CEO of Thor Exploration Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/thor-exploration-lsethx-nigerian-pioneer-preps-18m-oz-senegal-gold-project-for-q4-pfs-7891Recording date: 3rd December 2025Thor Explorations presents a compelling investment opportunity combining immediate cash generation from low-cost, high-grade gold production with a self-funded development pipeline spanning near-term mine life extension, advanced-stage project construction, and genuine exploration discoveries across three West African jurisdictions.The company operates the 100%-owned Segilola gold mine in Nigeria, producing 90,000–95,000 ounces annually at all-in sustaining costs below $1,000 per ounce. At current gold prices above $4,000 per ounce, Thor captures operating margins exceeding $3,000 per ounce, creating substantial free cash flow that funds quarterly dividends whilst simultaneously financing aggressive exploration and development programmes without equity dilution. Q3 2025 operational results demonstrated this financial strength, with production of 22,600 ounces generating approximately $70 million in revenue. Management's strategic decision to withhold 3,000 ounces for Q4 sale above $4,000 per ounce positions the company for potentially record quarterly financial performance. Thor has completely repaid its project debt, achieving a debt-free balance sheet that provides exceptional strategic flexibility for capital allocation decisions. This financial position distinguishes Thor from capital-constrained peers and enables the company to advance multiple projects simultaneously across different development stages.The Segilola operation represents Thor's immediate value creation opportunity through mine life extension. The company has deployed five drilling rigs exploring beneath the existing pit, systematically intersecting high-grade underground mineralisation averaging 5.5 grams per tonne (g/t) compared to open pit grades of just over 4 g/t. With all infrastructure capital expenditure already sunk and operational expertise established, every additional ounce discovered creates what management characterizes as "super ounces" requiring minimal incremental capital to extract. Thor targets an updated resource estimate in Q1 2026 whilst also pursuing satellite deposits within a 50-kilometre radius of the processing plant. The company plans a pilot mining operation in 2026 at one southern target, supplementing an existing stockpile containing over 44,000 ounces representing more than $175 million in contained gold value.Thor's Douta project in Senegal represents material near-term production growth, with a preliminary feasibility study weeks from completion. The project carries estimated capital costs of $250–$300 million, of which Thor will self-fund $150 million from operational cash flows. The remaining $100 million will be sourced through debt financing with Africa Finance Corporation, which financed Segilola and maintains an equity stake. Management targets first gold production in Q1 2028 following an investment decision expected in H1 2026, with the project featuring a larger resource base than Segilola and approximately 10 years of mine life that would materially increase Thor's consolidated production profile.Early-stage exploration success in Côte d'Ivoire provides genuine blue-sky discovery potential. At Guitry, 4,600 metres of drilling has delineated six mineralised lenses with high-grade intersections including 10 metres at 10 g/t across just 15% of an 8-kilometre by 5-kilometre geochemical footprint. The Marahui project has identified 8 kilometres of drill targets with surface rock chips returning 10–17 g/t. Both projects advance toward maiden resource estimates in H1 2026 through continuous drilling programmes funded entirely from internal cash generation.Thor's investment proposition centres on operational execution, financial strength, and portfolio diversification. The company's ability to generate substantial cash flows whilst advancing multiple growth opportunities without external capital requirements creates a differentiated risk-reward profile. Multiple near-term catalysts through 2026 include the Douta feasibility study release, Segilola resource update, Côte d'Ivoire maiden resources, construction decision-making, and continued operational cash generation supported by elevated gold prices and proven low-cost production capabilities.View Thor Exploration's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/thor-explorations-ltdSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

We sit down with medical writer and AI adoption strategist Dr. Núria Negrão, who went from bench science to building practical ways for clinicians, researchers, and communicators to use generative tools without losing accuracy or empathy. From HIV educations roots to today's most promising AI workflows, we trace what's working now and where the next breakthroughs may land.We unpack the real bottlenecks: clinicians stuck typing and scientists drowning in papers. Dr. Negrão shows how ambient scribe tools can free clinicians up for face-to-face time with patients, while research copilots can scan literature, connect ideas, and surface the studies that matter. We talk medical education use cases—virtual patients for difficult conversations, culturally sensitive practice, and adaptive learning that meets people where they are. Along the way, we tackle the hard parts: AI hallucinations, bias reinforcement, privacy risks, and the myth that AI is either flawless or useless. The answer is supervision, sourcing, and clear guardrails.Regulation-by-principle anchors our approach: no emotion surveillance, no automated life-and-death allocation, strong data protections, and human override in care. Then we look at the upside for patients. Imagine leaving an appointment with a plain-language summary of what the doctor said, clear next steps, and links to trusted support groups—plus a secure assistant to answer follow-ups when anxiety spikes at midnight. That's not replacing clinicians; that's better navigation of the health system. If you want a grounded, hopeful take on AI in healthcare, science communication, and medical writing—one that boosts health literacy and speeds discovery—this conversation is for you.If this sparked ideas, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a review.

This Day in Legal History: John Brown AssassinatedOn December 2, 1859, abolitionist John Brown was executed by hanging in Charles Town, Virginia (now West Virginia), following his conviction for treason against the Commonwealth of Virginia, murder, and inciting a slave insurrection. Brown had led a raid on the federal armory at Harpers Ferry in October, attempting to seize weapons and incite a large-scale slave uprising. His plan failed, with most of his men either killed or captured, and Brown himself wounded and arrested by U.S. Marines under the command of Colonel Robert E. Lee. The legal proceedings against him were swift: Brown was indicted within days, tried in state court, and sentenced to death less than a month after the raid.His execution was a national event, drawing immense media coverage and polarized public reaction. In the North, many abolitionists hailed him as a martyr who sacrificed his life to end the moral atrocity of slavery. In the South, he was widely viewed as a terrorist whose actions confirmed fears of Northern aggression and interference. Brown's trial and punishment underscored the deepening legal and moral divide between free and slave states, particularly regarding states' rights, federalism, and the use of violence to oppose injustice. The charges of treason and insurrection also raised complex constitutional questions, since Brown was prosecuted under state, not federal, law — despite attacking a federal facility. His case set the stage for intensifying legal and political disputes over the limits of protest, the legitimacy of armed resistance, and the definition of loyalty to the state.Brown's final words, predicting that “the crimes of this guilty land will never be purged away but with blood,” would prove prescient less than two years later when the Civil War began.A federal appeals court has ruled that Alina Habba, a former personal attorney to Donald Trump, was unlawfully appointed as the interim U.S. Attorney for the District of New Jersey. The 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously upheld a lower court's finding that the Trump administration violated federal appointments law in installing Habba without Senate confirmation or proper legal authority. This decision disqualifies her from overseeing federal cases in the state, potentially disrupting numerous active prosecutions.The case was brought by defense attorneys who argued that the Justice Department used procedural workarounds to improperly extend Habba's tenure after New Jersey's district judges declined to reauthorize her. In response, DOJ fired her court-appointed successor and tried to reassign Habba under a different title, which the court rejected. The ruling is significant because it's the first appellate decision pushing back on Trump-era efforts to place loyalists in key legal roles without Senate oversight.Habba, who had no prior prosecutorial experience, previously represented Trump in high-profile civil litigation, including the defamation case involving E. Jean Carroll. During her controversial tenure, she was criticized for politicized statements and for filing charges against a Democratic congresswoman. Similar appointment disputes are playing out in other states, and this decision sets a strong precedent against bypassing constitutional and statutory nomination processes. The administration is expected to appeal to the Supreme Court.Court disqualifies Trump ally Habba as top New Jersey federal prosecutor | ReutersHSBC has announced a multi-year partnership with French start-up Mistral AI to integrate generative AI tools across its global operations. The bank plans to self-host Mistral's commercial AI models and future upgrades, combining its own tech infrastructure with Mistral's cutting-edge AI capabilities. The collaboration aims to boost automation, productivity, and customer service, with use cases spanning financial analysis, multilingual translation, risk assessment, and personalized client interactions.By adopting Mistral's tools, HSBC expects to significantly reduce time spent on routine, document-heavy tasks, such as those in credit and financing teams. Already active in AI applications like fraud detection and compliance, the bank sees this deal as a way to accelerate innovation cycles and roll out new features more efficiently. The move comes amid a broader industry trend as banks seek to scale generative AI solutions, while addressing ongoing concerns around data privacy. HSBC emphasized that all deployments will comply with its responsible AI governance standards to ensure transparency and protection.HSBC taps French start-up Mistral to supercharge generative-AI rollout | ReutersPresident Donald Trump has commuted the prison sentence of David Gentile, the former CEO of GPB Capital Holdings, who was convicted under the Biden administration for his role in what prosecutors called a Ponzi scheme. Gentile had been serving a seven-year sentence after being found guilty of securities fraud in 2024. The DOJ argued that GPB misled investors by using new investor funds to pay returns, rather than profits from legitimate operations.However, in announcing the commutation, a White House official pushed back on the prosecution's claims, arguing that investors had been clearly informed about the firm's payment practices and that prosecutors failed to directly link fraudulent misrepresentations to Gentile during trial. The official also alleged misconduct, claiming the government elicited and failed to correct false testimony.The commutation comes amid heightened political scrutiny of financial fraud prosecutions and continues Trump's trend of intervening in controversial white-collar cases. The Department of Justice has not yet responded to the decision.Trump frees former GPB Capital CEO after Biden admin's Ponzi scheme sentence | ReutersMy column for Bloomberg this week is about … the penny. The official end of penny production may seem trivial, but it's creating real legal headaches for retailers and tax administrators alike. Without the one-cent coin, states are facing ambiguity about how to round sales tax totals for cash transactions—should it happen before or after tax, and who absorbs the rounding loss? These questions go largely unanswered, and in the absence of clear rules, businesses are improvising, which risks inconsistent compliance and enforcement challenges. There's also a legal tension where cash transactions require rounding but card payments do not—potentially running afoul of laws banning payment-method discrimination or even the Internet Tax Freedom Act.Streamlined Sales Tax rules add more complexity, limiting when and how rounding can occur and cautioning against systems that enrich the state at consumers' expense. I argue that instead of patchwork fixes, this moment should push states to modernize their sales tax systems with mandatory e-invoicing and real-time reporting. This would standardize how tax is calculated and rounded, reduce compliance uncertainty, and shrink the window for fraud. Paired with something like a receipt lottery—used successfully in countries like Brazil and China—states could turn customers into compliance allies by rewarding them for scanning and validating receipts.Ultimately, automating rounding decisions and reporting in point-of-sale systems would lift the burden off retailers and give governments cleaner data with lower enforcement costs. The penny may be dead, but this is a rare chance to bring sales tax enforcement into the 21st century. This is a public episode.

There were several debuts on this day, such as Doctor Who and World of Warcraft, but also the final episode of Orange Lounge Radio was done right after my show, and we say goodbye. I will be hosting at Awesome Games Done Quick 2026 in January! Schedule will be posted in mid December. I am a sucker for the Picross series of nonogram games on the Nintendo Switch, and there are two new games celebrating Capcom and SNK, but they are twice the price of their predecessors. A US Lawmaker has taken aim at the use of Generative AI in Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 and calls for regulations to protect jobs. Vedinad, a nominee for Best Debut Indie Games at The Game Awards, has withdrawn his nomination because Megabonk is not his debut indie game release. Then we talk to Rob about Orange Lounge Radio: The Final.
From November 29, 2023: Unless you've been living under a rock, you've probably heard a great deal over the last year about generative AI and how it's going to reshape various aspects of our society. That includes elections. With one year until the 2024 U.S. presidential election, we thought it would be a good time to step back and take a look at how generative AI might and might not make a difference when it comes to the political landscape. Luckily, Matt Perault and Scott Babwah Brennen of the UNC Center on Technology Policy have a new report out on just that subject, examining generative AI and political ads.On this episode of Arbiters of Truth, our series on the information ecosystem, Lawfare Senior Editor Quinta Jurecic and Lawfare's Fellow in Technology Policy and Law Eugenia Lostri sat down with Matt and Scott to talk through the potential risks and benefits of generative AI when it comes to political advertising. Which concerns are overstated, and which are worth closer attention as we move toward 2024? How should policymakers respond to new uses of this technology in the context of elections?To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.
