Healing doesn't always begin with answers. Sometimes it starts with the questions no one ever thought to ask.Before she became the voice behind Smarter in Seconds, Blair Imani was navigating a deeply personal journey through mental health, identity, and belonging, quietly and in plain sight. In this powerful conversation, Blair shares the story most people haven't heard: the one that came before the platform, the book deals, and the viral success. From early struggles with depression and institutionalization to navigating faith, queerness, and sobriety in public, Blair opens up about what it really means to heal in real time. Not perfectly. Not all at once. But bravely and out loud. This episode isn't just about one woman's recovery. It's about what it means to live at the intersection of identities, expectations, and survival and how choosing joy, setting boundaries, and speaking hard truths can transform not just a life, but a legacy.LIKE, SUBSCRIBE & SHARE your thoughts in the comments!__________________↳ YouTube↳ Apple Podcast↳ Spotify↳ Instagram↳ Tiktok↳ Facebook__________________Patrick Custer - Host↳ Instagram: @thepatrickcuster↳ TikTok: @thepatrickcuster↳ YouTube: @thepatrickcuster↳ Facebook: @thepatrickcuster↳ Website: linktr.ee/patrickcusterBlair Imani - Guest↳ Insta: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@blairimani⁠↳ Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@blairimani⁠↳ YouTube:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠@blairimani↳ Tiktok:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠@blairimani⁠↳ Website: www.blairimani.com⁠__________________Promises Behavioral Health – Treatment for addiction, mental health/trauma:↳ Admissions: (888) 648-4098↳ Insta: ⁠@promises_bh↳ URL: ⁠www.promisesbehavioralhealth.com⁠ Mental Health America:↳ URL: www.mhanational.org⁠About Blair Imani: Blair Imani is the creator of the viral web series, Smarter In Seconds, LA Times bestselling author of Read This to Get Smarter, and co-host of the podcast Thoughts About Feelings.

In this illuminating discussion, hosts JC Bonilla and Ardis Kadiu break down the four fundamental ways AI models become smarter: pre-training (long-term memory), context/prompting (short-term memory), real-time reasoning (inference-time processing), and fine-tuning (specialized learning). Using real-world examples from Bloomberg GPT and Apple's strategy, they explain why bigger models aren't always better and how companies can achieve remarkable results by intelligently combining these different approaches to model intelligence. Kadiu provides a masterclass in understanding AI model development, challenging common assumptions about specialized models while explaining why current AI capabilities are sufficient for most applications over the next 4-5 years.Post-Thanksgiving Welcome and Updates (00:00:07)Warm opening with hosts sharing Thanksgiving experiencesDiscussion of family gatherings and cooking adventuresSetting the stage for a technical but accessible conversationUnderstanding Model Intelligence: The Four Paths (00:29:06)Pre-training explained as "long-term memory" for modelsContext/prompting described as "short-term memory"Real-time reasoning capabilities during inferenceFine-tuning as a specialized learning approachHow these methods combine in practical applicationsPre-training Deep Dive (00:31:07)Explanation of the "P" in GPT (Generative Pre-trained Transformer)How pre-training works as foundational knowledgeCost implications of extensive pre-trainingTrade-offs between model size and performanceContext and Prompting Insights (00:32:44)Role of context in model performanceHow prompting provides short-term guidanceExamples of effective context usageImpact on model accuracy and resultsReal-time Reasoning Capabilities (00:34:06)How models perform inference-time reasoningInternal processing and decision-makingBenefits of self-guided problem-solvingExamples of reasoning in actionFine-tuning and Specialization (00:36:16)When and why to use fine-tuningCost benefits of specialized trainingReal-world examples of successful fine-tuningLimitations and considerationsPractical Applications and Cost Considerations (00:42:26)Analysis of decreasing model costsSpeed vs accuracy trade-offsWhen to use which approachFuture trends in model developmentIndustry Examples and Case Studies (00:47:20)Bloomberg GPT's lessons learnedApple's strategic approach to AIOpenAI's revenue modelSuccess factors in model deploymentLooking Forward: The Next 4-5 Years (00:49:13)Current capabilities vs future needsRole of evaluation and testingImportance of proper toolingBalance between innovation and practical application - - - -Connect With Our Co-Hosts:Ardis Kadiuhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ardis/https://twitter.com/ardisDr. JC Bonillahttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jcbonilla/https://twitter.com/jbonillxAbout The Enrollify Podcast Network:Generation AI is a part of the Enrollify Podcast Network.

Electric vehicle charging poses a serious threat to the energy system if users charge at the wrong time, lines companies say. Most EV owners - more than 4 out of 5 - have so far preferred to use 3-pin chargers or a wall box monitor, according to Energy Efficiency and Conservation Authority data. Neither of those options are set up for two-way communication with the grid and they charge as soon as you plug in. That means lines companies struggle to manage demand and they are warning they'll need to spend more than is required to accommodate it. Smart chargers can talk to the grid, target charging away from peak times and cost in the range of $1,000 to $2,000. EECA says its modelling shows widespread smart charger use could save the country $4 billion by 2050 by taking stress out of the grid. The United Kingdom has put in rules enforcing smart charger use, so should New Zealand follow suit? Marcos Pelenur, chief executive of EECA and Electricity Networks Aotearoa chief executive Tracey Kai, join Kathryn to discuss the smart chargers.

Can lessons from video games change our money habits? The word is out on gaming—it's not just something that children do for fun anymore. Games are tools that can be used to teach new skills, reduce stress, and even change behaviors by triggering chemical reactions in the brain. These benefits and more have provided scientists and developers with a promising path forward. “Games reduce the stress of making decisions,” says neuroscientist and professor Paul Zak. “App designers have now used game structures to help people learn new information, make new decisions; and one of the most exciting applications is in financial decision making.” But simply turning something into a game isn't enough to see meaningful changes in habits. Developers of gamified apps like Long Game have found ways to combine the engaging and fun experience we expect from video games, with something that has traditionally not been very fun: saving money. chapters:- 0:00 introduction 0:08 what is gaming 0:54 your brain on money 1:35 habits 2:28 gamification 3:25 prize link savings 4:18 Julia's experiment 4:45 bad habits 5:08 help 5:48 conclusion.

Ideas that seem wildly controversial today may move humanity towards progress. Philosopher Peter Singer asks —how do we keep them from being stifled? Peter Singer explains why he helped create the “Journal of Controversial Ideas,” a platform for discussing and examining controversial topics without fear of backlash or censorship. According to Singer, history is rife with examples of people challenging beliefs that were once considered certain but were later proven false. Persecuting those people who challenged those prevailing notions, Singer says, stifled progress. Singer underscores the importance of protecting academic freedom and freedom of thought and expression as fundamental to societal progress and knowledge advancement. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Go Deeper with Big Think: ►Become a Big Think Member Get exclusive access to full interviews, early access to new releases, Big Think merch and more ►Get Big Think+ for Business Guide, inspire and accelerate leaders at all levels of your company with the biggest minds in business -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Get Smarter, Faster.

This interview is an episode from @The-Well , our publication about ideas that inspire a life well-lived, created with the @JohnTempletonFoundation. Our perception of reality is not an exact representation of the objective truth but rather a combination of sensory inputs and the brain's interpretation of these signals. This interpretation is influenced by past experiences and is often predictive, with the brain creating categories of similar instances to anticipate future events. The brain's categorization process extends beyond physical characteristics to include abstract, functional features. This ability allows humans to create “social reality,” where we collectively assign functions or meanings to objects or concepts that don't inherently possess them, such as the value of money or the concept of borders and citizenship. The brain's capacity for imagination, drawing from past experiences to create something entirely new, is a double-edged sword. While it allows for creativity and innovation, it can also lead to difficulties in staying present. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapters: 0:00 The debate over reality 0:57 Objective reality 3:54 Social reality -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Go Deeper with Big Think: ►Become a Big Think Member Get exclusive access to full interviews, early access to new releases, Big Think merch and more ►Get Big Think+ for Business Guide, inspire and accelerate leaders at all levels of your company with the biggest minds in business -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Lisa Feldman Barrett: Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett is among the top 1% most-cited scientists in the world, having published over 250 peer-reviewed scientific papers.

The science of sex drive and sexual frustration from Dr. Emily Nagoski. Is our desire for sex fundamentally similar to our drive for necessities like food, water, and sleep? Sex educator Emily Nagoski argues that the answer is no. Although a lack of sex can lead to frustration, this feeling is fundamentally different from what we experience when deprived of the biological necessities of life. After all, nobody has ever died from a lack of sex. The implication is that common ideas about the existence of a “sex drive” are flawed. Check out this Big Think interview with Nagoski to learn more about the nature of sexual desire, and why pursuing connection and pleasure might be better than pursuing sex itself. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- chapters: 0:00 Why sex is not a biological “drive” 1:42 Sexual frustration on the other hand… 3:48 The damage of the “sex drive” myth -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Go Deeper with Big Think: ►Become a Big Think Member Get exclusive access to full interviews, early access to new releases, Big Think merch and more ►Get Big Think+ for Business Guide, inspire and accelerate leaders at all levels of your company with the biggest minds in business -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Emily Nagoski: Emily Nagoski is the award-winning author of the New York Times bestselling Come As You Are and The Come As You Are Workbook, and coauthor, with her sister, Amelia, of New York Times bestseller Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle.

This interview is an episode from @The-Well, our publication about ideas that inspire a life well-lived, created with the @JohnTempletonFoundation. In the last few decades, the concept of “burnout” has become ubiquitous in modern discourse around work and academia. However, there is a common misunderstanding about what burnout actually is. To many people, burnout is synonymous with being overworked and stressed. But cognitive scientist and Yale professor Laurie Santos wants you to know that that's not the case. Rather, burnout is a clinical syndrome with specific symptoms of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization or cynicism, and a sense of personal ineffectiveness. It can be caused by a heavy workload, but it is often due to a mismatch in values, unfairness, or a lack of intrinsic reward. Properly understanding burnout — and knowing how to identify it — is crucial for employing practical steps to proactively avoid the syndrome. To do so, Santos suggests four simple, actionable steps that can help you not only spot burnout, but stop it in its tracks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapters: 0:00 3 symptoms of clinical burnout 1:51 3 causes of burnout 3:39 Questions for assessing your burnout 4:59 How to treat burnout -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Go Deeper with Big Think: ►Become a Big Think Member Get exclusive access to full interviews, early access to new releases, Big Think merch and more ►Get Big Think+ for Business Guide, inspire and accelerate leaders at all levels of your company with the biggest minds in business -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Laurie Santos: Dr. Laurie Santos is an Associate Professor of Psychology at Yale University.

Chloé Valdary shares 3 rules for effective anti-racism. Chloé Valdary's Theory of Enchantment offers a fresh perspective on anti-racism, shifting the focus from rigid identity categories to a deeper understanding of human experiences. The theory emphasizes three core principles: treating people as human beings rather than political abstractions, criticizing to uplift and empower, and anchoring actions in love and compassion. By acknowledging the inner struggles and complexities that drive individual racism, Valdary encourages self-awareness to promote more thoughtful and compassionate interactions with others. Through this framework, the Theory of Enchantment aims to foster positive change by addressing the pain, suffering, and confusion that underlie racism and promoting a more empathetic and inclusive society. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapters for easier navigation:- 0:00 3 key principles for an anti-racist mindset 1:27 James Baldwin on the inner psyche -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Go Deeper with Big Think: ►Become a Big Think Member Get exclusive access to full interviews, early access to new releases, Big Think merch and more ►Get Big Think+ for Business Guide, inspire and accelerate leaders at all levels of your company with the biggest minds in business -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Chloé Valdary: After spending a year as a Bartley fellow at the Wall Street Journal, Chloé Valdary developed The Theory of Enchantment, an innovative framework for compassionate antiracism that combines social emotional learning (SEL), character development, and interpersonal growth as tools for leadership development in the boardroom and beyond.

This interview is an episode from @The-Well, our publication about ideas that inspire a life well-lived, created with the @JohnTempletonFoundation. Aided by best-selling psychology books of the last decade, such as Bessel van der Kolk's The Body Keeps the Score, discussions about trauma and how to deal with it have entered popular public discourse. From police departments to school classrooms, trauma-informed approaches have taken center stage. But leading neuroscientist Lisa Feldman Barrett challenges the popular notion that trauma resides solely in the body. She asserts that trauma is rooted in the brain's predictions and the construction of our experiences. When an adverse experience becomes traumatic, the brain heavily weighs and anticipates that experience in its future predictions. This ongoing prediction and re-experiencing of the traumatic event strengthens the neural connections associated with it, making the predictions more likely to occur in the future. Rather than focusing on the body as the site of healing, she suggests that changing the brain's models of prediction is what needs to be addressed to break free from the cycle of trauma. By understanding the role of predictions and the brain's plasticity, Feldman Barrett offers hope for transforming traumatic experiences and finding new, lasting paths to healing. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapters: 0:00 Why your brain creates trauma 1:44 Does your body keep the score? 2:53 Effective treatments for trauma 4:33 Trauma IS in your head (but everything else is too) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Go Deeper with Big Think: ►Become a Big Think Member Get exclusive access to full interviews, early access to new releases, Big Think merch and more ►Get Big Think+ for Business Guide, inspire and accelerate leaders at all levels of your company with the biggest minds in business -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Lisa Feldman Barrett: Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett is among the top 1% most-cited scientists in the world, having published over 250 peer-reviewed scientific papers.

Why friendships are becoming rarer in America, explained by author Richard Reeves. Richard Reeves, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, discusses the importance of friendships and the potential “friendship recession.” He notes that loneliness can be as harmful as smoking 15 cigarettes per day, but measuring and quantifying friendships is difficult. According to Reeves, an ideal number of close friends is around three or four. But alarmingly, 15% of young men today report having no close friends, compared to 3% in the 1990s. The COVID pandemic has further tested friendship networks, with women being the most affected due to their friendships' reliance on physical contact. Other factors likely have contributed to the decline in friendships in the 21st-century U.S., including geographical mobility, parenting demands, workism, and relationship breakdowns. Reeves emphasizes the importance of acknowledging and nurturing friendships as they don't form spontaneously. Admitting the desire for friends requires vulnerability and openness, which may be difficult for some individuals. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chapters: 0:00 A friendship recession 1:20 4 friendship formations 1:54 How many friends do people need? 2:21 The ideal relationship 3:03 Why are we losing friends? 4:20 Friendship & your health 5:07 Male friendships 5:43 Female friendships 6:27 The dystopia we must avoid 7:20 The hardest thing to admit -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Go Deeper with Big Think: ►Become a Big Think Member Get exclusive access to full interviews, early access to new releases, Big Think merch and more ►Get Big Think+ for Business Guide, inspire and accelerate leaders at all levels of your company with the biggest minds in business -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Richard Reeves: Richard V. Reeves is a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, where he directs the Future of the Middle Class Initiative and co-directs the Center on Children and Families. His Brookings research focuses on the middle class, inequality and social mobility. Richard writes for a wide range of publications, including the New York Times, Guardian, National Affairs, The Atlantic, Democracy Journal, and Wall Street Journal. He is the author of Dream Hoarders (Brookings Institution Press, 2017), and John Stuart Mill – Victorian Firebrand (Atlantic Books, 2007), an intellectual biography of the British liberal philosopher and politician. Dream Hoarders was named a Book of the Year by The Economist, a Political Book of the Year by The Observer, and was shortlisted for the Goddard Riverside Stephan Russo Book Prize for Social Justice.

Are the answers to humanity's biggest questions written in the stars? Our host Kmele Foster is on a journey to find out. This video is an episode from @The-Well, our publication about ideas that inspire a life well-lived, created with the @JohnTempletonFoundation. Why are we here? What is our purpose? Are any of our scientific efforts actually adding up to important revelations? Does understanding our cosmic origins really contribute to humanity as a whole? We know what it's like to be “street-level,” to understand our cities, our social behaviors, our day-to-day lives — but what happens if we look up? How does our understanding of humanity change when we raise our attention to the space beyond our skylines? These are the questions that our host Kmele Foster is exploring in this episode of The Well podcast. Helping Kmele along the way is Sean Dougherty, the director of ALMA Observatory in Northern Chile, home of Earth's darkest skies and 50% of the world's megatelecopes. If the answers to humanity's questions are written in the stars, this observatory might be the one to translate them. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About Big Think | Smarter Faster™ ► Big Think The leading source of expert-driven, educational content.
