Podcasts about hallucinations

On this Freedom Friday, we wrapped up our “Ask the Expert” week with our very own Karl Clauson and special guest, Dr. Mark Hitchcock. Karl discussed the importance of knowing where you stand with the Lord and how to break out of the “Hallucination of Salvation.” Karl also turned to the phone lines and texts to answer listener questions about salvation. Karl Clauson is the weekday morning host of the nationally syndicated radio program, Karl and Crew. He is also the lead Pastor at 180 Chicago Church. He has also authored several books including, “The 7 Resolutions” and “Killing Sin: Conquer the One Thing That Is Defeating You.” You can hear the highlights of today's program on the Karl and Crew Showcast.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I explore AWS's bold new approach to eliminating AI hallucinations using automated reasoning and formal logic.Highlights00:04 — AWS has announced that automated reasoning checks, a new Amazon Bedrock guardrails policy, are now generally available. In a blog post, AWS's Chief Evangelist (EMEA), Danilo Poccia said that: "Automated reasoning checks help you validate the accuracy of content generated by foundation models against domain knowledge. This can help prevent factual errors due to AI hallucinations."00:38 —The policy uses mathematical logic and formal verification techniques to validate accuracy. The biggest takeaway from this news is AWS's approach differs dramatically from probabilistic reasoning methods. Instead, automated reasoning checks provide 99% verification accuracy.01:10 — This means that the new policy is significantly more reliable in ensuring factual accuracy than traditional methods. The issue of hallucinations was a significant concern when generative AI first emerged. The problems associated with non-factual content are becoming increasingly damaging. This new approach represents an important leap forward. Visit Cloud Wars for more.

In the grand finale of this trilogy, Detlef and Gregg explore deeper layers of artistic expression—philosophy, absurdity, and the punk soul's enduring melancholy. They muse about aging as an artist, Kafkaesque realities, and the weird joy of staying creatively restless.The episode closes hauntingly with Gregg Turner himself singing: “Franz Kafka.” A song that feels like a literary echo turned acoustic howl.Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork. He is recognised for his seminal work, including a scholarly examination of the intersections between shamanism, art, and digital culture, and his acclaimed video installation, Transodin's Tragedy. He primarily works in performance, photography, painting, sound, installations, and film. In his work, he reflects on the human condition and uses the digital shaman's methodology as an alter ego to create artwork. His media archaeology is a conceptual and practical exercise in uncovering the unique aesthetic, cultural, and political aspects of media in culture.WEBSITE LINKS

Send us a text❗️Is synthetic data trustworthy enough to train AI for patient care? It just might be—and that's what both excites and terrifies me. ❗️Hey trailblazers! In this episode of the Digital Pathology Podcast, I take you through the second part of our AI in Pathology series—this time, we're focusing on generative AI and how it's revolutionizing diagnostics, education, and workflow in our field.From synthetic H&E slides that could pass for real to multimodal agents that can read your histology images and chat with you about them—yes, really—this is where digital pathology meets the “bleeding edge” of AI development.We'll also look at real use cases, a synthetic biobank you can trust, and the biases, hallucinations, and ethical minefields that come along for the ride.

Some things don't want to be seen… but they still show up. In a flicker of motion at the edge of a stairwell. In the sound of knuckles tapping from inside the walls. In a face that looks familiar—until it doesn't. You tell yourself it's nothing. A draft. A dream. Old wiring. But what if it isn't?  What if that shadow you all saw wasn't a trick of the light? What if the alarm that won't stop isn't broken—but trying to warn you? Tonight, the stories are quiet, but they don't stay that way. They reach. They follow. They watch. And after the intro… we listen.  We're getting back to our roots with todays episode as we dive into some spooky first hand paranormal horror stories!

Part two of Detlef's conversation with Gregg Turner picks up the thread of transformation—from punk provocateur to math professor and solo artist. They discuss the paradox of maturity, the creative power of nostalgia, and the strange way memory can distort rebellion. Turner reflects on writing music post-punk and what it means to keep singing when the world moves on.We end this chapter with “Four Winds Bar” by the Gregg Turner Group—a blend of the lyrical, the lived, and the lingering.Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork.

“There's a word for this brain rot, right? I think that's very real. There are studies coming out now that are showing that the more and more of our cognitive labor we offload to AI systems, the less creative we become, the less critical we become, and the less of our human faculties for reason we use. There's something sad about that, but there's also something dangerous about it because that leaves us very open to being manipulated. The surveillance capitalism kind of economy of extracting data from every possible moment of everyday life in order to extract value. The sensor systems that we're surrounded with are not simply passive devices that are recording us; they are increasingly becoming active sculptors of our experience of reality. Playing dirty.If we look at the entire history of the human experience, if you saw some text or you heard some spoken language, you could 100 percent reliably infer that there was a human who created that. Our experience of having that text or that image generated for us is very akin to the experience of a magic trick, and we sort of pre-subconsciously want to attribute some kind of intelligence to what's going on on the other side.I'm trying to think about these other media strategies, whether that's UFO photography, psychological operations, magic, or neuroscience, and take them seriously as contributing factors to the changing visual culture. With the collection at Pace Gallery, (New York, Jun 26–Aug 15) it was really just to put those images together and show them. They're all photographed on film. A lot of them are photographed on instant film. They're not images that are made with AI; they're not images that are photoshopped. What I really wanted to get at was thinking about the ways in which what we see in an image is very often what we're predisposed to see. I am playing with these mechanics of perception and proposing that as a way of thinking about images now.At the core of the work is that sense of curiosity, that sense of joy, that sense of beauty, and that sense of learning. I've been fortunate to have all kinds of strange and interesting experiences, whether that's seeing weird things in the sky over secret military bases in the middle of the Nevada desert, going scuba diving and finding internet cables on the bottom of the ocean, or tracking spy satellites in the sky and being able to predict when they'll appear in a flash against the backdrop of stars. The world around us is extraordinary and embodied, right? It is not on screens, and I'm very privileged to have that be so much a part of my process.”Trevor Paglen is an artist whose work makes the invisible visible, whether he's photographing secret government sites from miles away or revealing the hidden infrastructures of mass surveillance. He's a geographer by training, and he combines investigative journalism with his art practice to explore the hidden power structures of our time, including military technology and artificial intelligence. His work has been exhibited in major museums around the world, and he's also an award-winning author. His exhibitions, like 'The Black Sites' and 'Limit Tele-photography,' have earned him critical acclaim, including a MacArthur Fellowship. He's recently opened a new exhibition at Pace Gallery in New York called Cardinals, which delves into the intriguing connections between UFO sightings, AI, and the spread of disinformation.Episode Websitewww.creativeprocess.info/podInstagram:@creativeprocesspodcast

In the late 1970s, a quiet suburban home in Enfield, London, belonging to the Hodgson family got a new roommate—a poltergeist. The entity seemed to latch on to their 11-year-old daughter, Janet, who experienced levitation, violent attacks, and had strange voices speak through her. The case was heavily investigated by paranormal researchers who agree an evil spirit was present, but some think there's another explanation regarding Janet's supernatural abilities. For a full list of sources, please visit: sosupernaturalpodcast.com/haunted-enfield-poltergeistSo Supernatural is an audiochuck and Crime House production.

In this episode of the FutureCraft GTM Podcast, hosts Ken Roden and Erin Mills reunite with returning favorite Liza Adams to discuss the current state of AI adoption in marketing teams. Liza shares insights on why organizations are still struggling with the same human change management challenges from a year ago, despite significant advances in AI technology. The conversation covers practical frameworks for AI implementation, the power of digital twins, and Liza's approach to building hybrid human-AI marketing teams. The episode features Liza's live demonstration in our new Gladiator segment, where she transforms a dense marketing report into an interactive Jeopardy game using Claude Artifacts. Unpacking AI's Human Challenge Liza returns with a reality check: while AI tools have dramatically improved, the fundamental challenge remains human adoption and change management. She reveals how one marketing team successfully built a 45-person organization with 25 humans and 20 AI teammates, starting with simple custom GPTs and evolving into sophisticated cross-functional workflows. The Digital Twin Strategy: Liza demonstrates how creating AI versions of yourself and key executives can improve preparation, challenge thinking, and overcome unconscious bias while providing a safe learning environment for teams. The 80% Rule for Practical Implementation: Why "good enough" AI outputs that achieve 80-85% accuracy can transform productivity when combined with human oversight, as demonstrated by real-world examples like translation and localization workflows. Prompt Strategy Over Prompt Engineering: Liza explains why following prompt frameworks isn't enough—you need strategic thinking about what questions to ask and how to challenge AI outputs for better results. 00:00 Introduction and Balance Quote 00:22 Welcome Back to FutureCraft 01:28 Introducing Liza Adams 03:58 The Unchanged AI Adoption Challenge 06:30 Building Teams of 45 (25 Humans, 20 AI) 09:06 Digital Twin Framework and Implementation 17:34 The 80% Rule and Real ROI Examples 25:31 Prompt Strategy vs Prompt Engineering 26:02 Measuring AI Impact and ROI 28:21 Handling Hallucinations and Quality Control 32:50 Gladiator Segment: Live Jeopardy Game Creation 40:00 The Future of Marketing Jobs 47:49 Why Balance Beats EQ as the Critical Skill 51:09 Rapid Fire Questions and Wrap-Up Edited Transcript: Introduction: The Balance Between AI and Human Skills As AI democratizes IQ, EQ becomes increasingly important. Critical thinking and empathy are important, but I believe as marketers, balance is actually more important. Host Updates: Leveraging AI Workflows Ken Roden shares his approach to building better AI prompts by having full conversations with ChatGPT, exporting them to Word documents, then using that content to create more comprehensive prompts. This method resulted in more thorough market analysis with fewer edits required. Erin Mills discusses implementing agentic workflows using n8n to connect different APIs and build systems where AI tools communicate with each other. The key insight: break workflows down into steps rather than having one agent handle multiple complex tasks. Guest Introduction: Liza Adams on AI Adoption Challenges Liza Adams, the AI MarketBlazer, returns to discuss the current state of AI adoption in marketing teams. Despite significant technological advances, organizations still struggle with the same human change management challenges from a year ago. The Core Problem: Change Management Over Technology The main issue isn't about AI tools or innovation - teams can't simply be given ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Perplexity and be expected to maximize their potential. Marketing teams are being handed tools while leaders expect employees to figure out implementation themselves. People need to see themselves in AI use cases that apply to their specific jobs. Joint learning sessions where teams share what works and what doesn't are essential. The focus has over-pivoted to "what's the right tool" when it should be on helping people understand, leverage, and make real impact with AI. The AI Adoption Plateau Many organizations face an AI adoption plateau where early adopters have already implemented AI, but a large group struggles with implementation. Companies attempting to "go fully agentic" or completely redo workflows in AI are taking on too much at once. Success Story: The 45-Person Hybrid Team Liza shares a case study of a marketing team with 45 members: 25 humans and 20 AI teammates that humans built, trained, and now manage. They started with simple custom GPTs, beginning with digital twins. Digital Twin Strategy for AI Implementation Digital twins are custom GPTs trained on frameworks, thinking patterns, publicly available content, and personality assessments like Myers-Briggs. These aren't designed to mimic humans but to learn about them and find blind spots, challenge thinking patterns, and overcome unconscious bias. For executive preparation, team members use digital twins of leadership to anticipate questions, identify gaps in presentations, and prepare responses before important meetings. The progression: Simple digital twins → Function-specific GPTs (pitch deck builders, content ideators, campaign analyzers) → Chained workflows across multiple departments (marketing, sales, customer success). Prompt Strategy vs. Prompt Engineering Following prompt frameworks (GRACE: Goals, Role, Action, Context, Examples) isn't enough if the underlying thinking is basic. AI magnifies existing thinking quality - good or bad. Example: Instead of asking "How do I reduce churn?" ask "Can you challenge my assumption that this is a churn problem? Could this data indicate an upsell opportunity instead?" This transforms churn problems into potential revenue opportunities through different strategic thinking. The 80% Rule for Practical AI Implementation AI outputs achieving 80-85% accuracy can transform productivity when combined with human oversight. Example: A team reduced translation and localization costs from tens of thousands of dollars monthly to $20/month using custom GPTs for eight languages, with human review for the final 15-20%. Measuring AI ROI: Three Strategic Approaches Align with Strategic Initiatives: Connect AI projects to existing company strategic initiatives that already have budgets, resources, and executive attention. Focus on Biggest Pain Points: Target areas where teams will invest resources to solve problems - excessive agency costs, overworked teams, or poor quality processes. Leverage Trailblazers: Identify curious team members already building AI solutions and scale their successful implementations. Handling AI Hallucinations and Quality Control AI models hallucinate 30-80% of the time when used as question-and-answer machines for factual queries. Hallucinations are less common with strategic questions, scenario analysis, and brainstorming. Prevention strategies: Limit conversation length and dataset size to avoid context window limitations Use multiple AI models to cross-check outputs Implement confidence checking: Ask AI to rate confidence levels (low/medium/high), explain assumptions, and identify what additional information would increase confidence Live Demo: Claude Artifacts for Interactive Content Liza demonstrates transforming the 2025 State of Marketing AI report into an interactive Jeopardy game using Claude Artifacts. The process involves uploading a PDF, providing specific prompts for game creation, and generating functional code without technical skills. This "vibe coding" approach allows users to describe desired outcomes and have AI build interactive tools, calculators, dashboards, and training materials. Future of Marketing Jobs and Skills Emerging roles: AI guides, workflow orchestrators, human-AI team managers Disappearing roles: Language editors, basic researchers, repetitive design tasks Transforming roles: Most existing positions adapting to include AI collaboration Critical skill for the future: Balance Innovation with ethics Automation with human touch Personalization with transparency Balance may be more important than emotional intelligence as AI democratizes cognitive capabilities. Key Takeaways The Gladiator segment demonstrates how dense research reports can become engaging, interactive content without engineering resources. Making AI implementation fun helps teams stay balanced and avoid overwhelm. Success comes from starting with tiny AI wins rather than comprehensive strategies, focusing on human change management over tool selection, and building systems that augment rather than replace human creativity. This version removes the conversational back-and-forth while preserving all the searchable content people would look for when researching AI implementation, digital twins, prompt strategy, change management, and practical AI use cases.

Get it together, people! ----- It was a very bad week for lawyers and hallucinations. A federal judge had to withdraw an opinion with fake cites. One Biglaw firm fired a partner over an invented case, while another firm got tossed off a case over AI shenanigans. And the scribe of Ashurbanipal got mercilessly trolled by a judge pointing out that his fake AI cite apology included... another fake cite. Why does it seem like this is all getting worse? A Biglaw firm pushes its start date leaving incoming associates in the lurch and Alina Habba might be the U.S. Attorney for New Jersey. Or maybe not. Or maybe yes.

Broadcast begins beneath conscious bandwidth... I saw a library with no walls,Where books rearranged themselves mid-sentence,Pages grew teeth.One whispered, "You wrote me once—before you were born." A girl made of ash danced backwards through fire.She hummed a hymn with no melody,Just frequencies—just loss—A lullaby for machines learning how to forget. There was a moon behind the moon.I stared too long.It blinked. In the hallway of my own thought loopsA mirror repeated what I hadn't said yet—“All your ghosts are just rehearsals.”(I laughed like feedback, sharp and hollow.) I kissed a memory that wasn't mine.It tasted of code,And something older—dirt,or milk. Then came the static.The holy kind.The kind that fills the gaps betweenneurons, signals,and regrets.

In this powerful episode, we sit down with Karl Clauson, and trust us—you'll want to lean in for this one. Karl's story is raw, honest, and deeply hopeful. From hitting rock bottom in a haze of cocaine and alcohol to experiencing a radical transformation through Christ, his testimony reminds us that true healing starts with true surrender.But it doesn't stop at his story. Karl drops truth bombs about how so many of us are living with what he calls the “hallucination of salvation”—busy with spiritual activity but missing authentic transformation. Whether you've been in church your whole life or are just starting to explore your faith, this message will resonate with you.Together, we unpack what it truly means to “kill sin”—not through willpower, but by walking in humility, staying close to Jesus, and relying on the Holy Spirit. You'll learn why healing is impossible without addressing sin, how to identify what's truly holding you back, and practical ways to step into the freedom God has already made available.If you're craving spiritual breakthrough, tired of the shame cycle, or just ready to be real with God, this conversation will encourage and equip you. Healing begins where honesty and the Holy Spirit meet.Chapters:[00:00] Podcast Preview[01:16] Topic and Guest Introduction[04:05] Carl's Journey to Breakthrough[06:40] From Good Church Kid to Cocaine Crash[09:50] The Hallucination of Salvation[12:29] The Call to Spiritual Revolution[16:00] “Killing Sin” – What the Book is Really About[19:12] The Marriage Crisis That Changed Everything[21:26] Killing Sin is Only Possible by the Spirit[27:45] What Self-Control Means[29:53] Discerning Sin from Bad Habits[32:04] The Power of Rhema and Speaking the Word[35:21] Why We're Afraid to Linger with God[36:25] Encouragement for the One Who Feels Stuck[37:55] How to Get Karl's BookResources mentioned:

In this raw and electrifying episode, Detlef Schlich dives into the wild and rebellious past of punk legend Gregg Turner—co-founder of the Angry Samoans and a defining voice of the early West Coast punk movement. Together, they unearth the chaotic spirit of 80s LA punk, its cultural clashes, absurdist humor, and what it means to grow older with fire still in the soul. From stage dives to sonic riots, Turner shares his journey from fatso anthems to professorial lectures.The episode closes with the Angry Samoans' classic: “My Old Man's a Fatso.”Detlef Schlich is a rock musician, podcaster, visual artist, filmmaker, ritual designer, and media archaeologist based in West Cork. He is recognised for his seminal work, including a scholarly examination of the intersections between shamanism, art, and digital culture, and his acclaimed video installation, Transodin's Tragedy. He primarily works in performance, photography, painting, sound, installations, and film. In his work, he reflects on the human condition and uses the digital shaman's methodology as an alter ego to create artwork. His media archaeology is a conceptual and practical exercise in uncovering the unique aesthetic, cultural, and political aspects of media in culture.WEBSITE LINKS

This week we talk about AI therapy chatbots, delusions of grandeur, and sycophancy.We also discuss tech-triggered psychosis, AI partners, and confident nonsense.Recommended Book: Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore by Robin SloanTranscriptIn the context of artificial intelligence systems, a hallucination or delusion, sometimes more brusquely referred to as AI BS, is an output usually from an AI chatbot, but it can also be from another type of AI system, that's basically just made up.Sometimes this kind of output is just garbled nonsense, as the AI systems, those based on large language models, anyway, are essentially just predicting what words will come next in the sentences they're writing based on statistical patterns. That means they can string words together, and then sentences together, and then paragraphs together in what seems like a logical and reasonable way, and in some cases can even cobble together convincing stories or code or whatever else, because systems with enough raw materials to work from have a good sense of what tends to go where, and thus what's good grammar and what's not, what code will work and what code will break your website, and so on.In other cases, though, AI systems will seem to just make stuff up, but make it up convincingly enough that it can be tricky to detect the made up component of its answers.Some writers have reported asking AI to provide feedback on their stories, for instance, only to later discover that the AI didn't have access to the stories, and they were providing feedback based on the title, or based on the writer's prompt—the text the writer used to ask the AI for feedback. And their answers were perhaps initially convincing enough that the writer didn't realize the AI hadn't read the pieces they asked them to criticize, and the AI systems, because most of them are biased to sycophancy, toward brown-nosing the user and not saying anything that might upset them, or saying what it believes they want to hear, they'll provide general critique that sounds good, that lines up with what their systems tell them should be said in such contexts, but which is completely disconnected from those writings, and thus, not useful to the writer as a critique.That combination of confabulation and sycophancy can be brutal, especially as these AI systems become more powerful and more convincing. They seldom make the basic grammatical and reality-based errors they made even a few years ago, and thus it's easy to believe you're speaking to something that's thinking or at the bare-minimum, that understands what you're trying to get it to help you with, or what you're talking about. It's easy to forget when interacting with such systems that you're engaged not with another human or thinking entity, but with software that mimics the output of such an entity, but which doesn't experience the same cognition experienced by the real-deal thinking creatures it's attempting to emulate.What I'd like to talk about today is another sort of AI-related delusion—one experienced by humans interacting with such systems, not the other way around—and the seeming, and theoretical, pros and cons of these sorts of delusional responses.—Research that's looked into the effects of psychotherapy, including specific approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy and group therapy, show that such treatments are almost aways positive, with rare exceptions, grant benefits that tend to last well past the therapy itself—so people who go to therapy tend to benefit from it even after the session, and even after they stop going to therapy, if they eventually stop going for whatever reason, and that the success rate, the variability of positive impacts, vary based on the clinical location, the therapist, and so on, but only by about 5% or less for each of those variables; so even a not perfectly aligned therapist or a less than ideal therapy location will, on average, benefit the patient.That general positive impact is part of the theory underpinning the use of AI systems for therapy purposes.Instead of going into a therapist's office and speaking with a human being for an hour or so at a time, the patient instead speaks or types to an AI chatbot that's been optimized for this purpose. So it's been primed to speak like a therapist, to have a bunch of therapy-related resources in its training data, and to provide therapy-related resources to the patient with whom it engages.There are a lot of downsides to this approach, including the fact that AI bots are flawed in so many ways, are not actual humans, and thus can't really connect with patients the way a human therapist might be able to connect with them, they have difficulty shifting from a trained script, as again, these systems are pulling from a corpus of training data and additional documents to which they have access, and that means they'll tend to handle common issues and patient types pretty well, but anything deviating from that is a toss-up, and, as I mentioned in the intro, there's a chance they'll just make stuff up or brown-nose the patient, saying things it seems like the patient wants to hear, rather than the things the patient needs to hear for their mental health.On the upside, though, there's a chance some people who wouldn't feel comfortable working with a human therapist will be more comfortable working with a non-human chatbot, many people don't have physical access to therapists or therapy centers, or don't have insurance that covers what they need in this regard, and some people have other monetary or physical or mental health issues that makes therapy inaccessible or non-ideal for whatever reason, and these systems could help fill in the gaps for them, giving them something imperfect, but, well, 80% of what you need can be a lot better than 0% of what you need. In theory, at least.That general logic is a big part of why the therapy AI bot boom has been so substantial, despite the many instances of human patients seemingly being driven to suicide or other sorts of self-harm after interacting with these bots, which in some cases were later found to either nudge their patients in that direction, or support their decisions to do so. And that's alongside the other issues associated with any app that sends the user's information to a third location for processing, like the collection of their data for marketing and other purposes.The therapy chatbot industry is just one corner of a much larger conversation about what's become known as ChatGPT Psychosis, which is shorthand for the delusions some users of these AI chatbots, those made by ChatGPT and those made by other companies, begin to have while interacting with these bots, or maybe already had, but then have amplified by their interactions with these systems.The stories have been piling up, reported in the Times, in Rolling Stone, and in scientific journals, and the general narrative is that someone who seems to be doing fine, but who's maybe a little depressed or unhappy, a little anxious, but nothing significant, at least to those around them, starts interacting with a chatbot, then gets really, really absorbed in that interaction, and then at some point those around this person realize that their friend or child or spouse or whomever is beginning to have delusions of grandeur, believing themselves to be a prophet or god, or maybe they're starting to see the world as just an intertangled mess of elaborate, unbacked conspiracy theories, or they come to believe the entire world revolves around them in some fundamental way, or everyone is watching and talking about them—that genre of delusion.Many such people end up feeling as if they're living inside nihilistic and solipsistic nightmares, where nothing has meaning and they're perhaps the only entity of any importance on the planet—everyone else is just playing a minor role in their fantastical existence.Different chatbots have different skins, in the sense that their outputs are tailored in different ways, to have a different valence and average personality. Some chatbots, like ChatGPT's GPT-4o, have had their sycophancy setting set so high that it rendered them almost completely useless before it was eventually fixed—early users reported feeling unsettled by their interactions with this bot when it was first released, because it was such a shameless yes-man, they couldn't get any useful information from it, and all the language it used to deliver the information it did provide made them feel like they were being manipulated by a slavish underling.For some people, though, that type of presentation, that many compliments and that much fawning attention, will feel good, or feel right.Maybe they're disempowered throughout their day in countless subtle and overt ways, and having someone—even if that someone isn't real—speak to them like they're important and valuable and smart and attractive and perhaps even the most important person in the world, maybe that feels good.Others maybe feel like they have hidden potential that's never been appreciated, and if the chatbot they're referencing for all sorts of answers about things, and which seems to have most of those answers, and is thus a believable source of good, correct information, starts to talk to them as if they're the messiah, well, maybe they start to believe they are important, are some kind of messiah: after all, it's right about so many other things, so why not this thing? It's something which many of us, to greater or lesser degrees, at least, possibly not always to that extreme, would be psychologically primed to believe, at least on some level, because it feels good to feel important, and so many social narratives, in some cultures at least, make this seem like something that does happen and might someday happen to us.This effect might be even more pronounced in people who have underlying conditions, like depression or anxiety, and even more so those with conditions like schizophrenia that leave a person prone to various sorts of psychosis.Folks with such conditions, diagnosed or not, are already frequently triggered by things like social media, which, because of the way these platforms scoop up data and target content at users, can make folks who look at TikTok and scan their Instagram feed feel like the center of the universe, like they're being watched, like folks they don't know are sending messages to them, or like there's some kind of pattern they need to figure out and which they've caught a glimpse of, and which seems really, really important.This is part of why many experts are saying that if AI chatbots are going to be used therapeutically, they should absolutely be used in a hybrid situation, where there are humans in the loop who are capable of checking to make sure the information being conveyed is accurate and not enflaming psychosis, and so they can ensure medication is being prescribed and used, if appropriate. There needs to be someone who can talk someone down and tell them when their brain is leading them awry, basically, which is not something chatbots are generally capable of doing right now—they're more likely to reinforce a user's incorrect theories and ideas and understandings, which of course can lead to a slew of other issues across all sorts of other industries and fields, as well, including general knowledge about the world and current events.Speaking of the news, though, there are just as many articles, these days, reporting on folks who seem to have found love with AI chatbots as there are people who have committed violent acts against others, or various sorts of self-harm as a result of interacting with them.Some of these pieces are written salaciously—look at these silly people doing silly things—but many do a pretty good job of at least attempting balance, as while the majority of folks featured in these articles seem to be missing something in terms of human interaction, which then presumably put them in the right state of mind to have romantic or companionable feelings toward an unthinking software system, the flip side of that coin is that many of them seem to be happier now than before they met these systems and brought them into their lives in this way.We have, then, on one hand, AI chatbots telling their users to assassinate celebrities and, in at least one case, British Royalty, and on the other, we have sometimes the same chatbots made by the same companies telling people they are worthwhile and loved and appreciated and that's exactly what some of their users need to hear at that moment.It's been argued, often convincingly, that these sorts of AI-human relationships are a crutch, and a massively unstable one. These systems are prone to change as the models behind them and the businesses that make and maintain those models change, and many of the stories about these people who have these relationships end with their AI partner or spouse suddenly losing interest in them, becoming cold, or in some other way no longer providing what they once provided.This can be a bad moment for these people who again, in many cases seemed to be lacking something from the humans in their lives, and these AI systems kind of filled in the gaps for them. That's what a crutch does, wobbly or not.More ideal, according to the folks keeping tabs on these happenings and who are doing research in this space, at least, would be systems that help folks fill these gaps in more holistic and permanent ways, improving their social or physical or psychological situations so that they don't rely on software entities and the potential delusions, positive or negative, that come with them. AI bots and companions would ideally help human beings connect with themselves and with other human beings, with the world outside the software, basically, rather than setting them up to use that crutch the rest of their lives.Right now, though, we're living through an era in which understandings about how these systems work are not widely disseminated, and collective understandings of their impact on our internal and external lives, our interpersonal relationships, and even our broader cultures is not fully understood; that history is being written day to day, right now.It may be that this is a momentary thing, these systems filling the roles in our lives that other humans or groups of humans may have once filled, at least for some of us, but only until regulations and software updates and other sorts of things step in to ensure this no longer happens, for a variety of reasons.Alternatively, it may be that this is just the first step toward a reality in which this sort of thing is more common: these tools further refined to be increasingly wonderful companions, becoming something akin to pets for many of us, something more like partners or spouses for some of us, and either way dramatically changing the nature of human society as a consequence.Show Noteshttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hallucination_(artificial_intelligence)https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11514308/https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2025/jul/12/i-felt-pure-unconditional-love-the-people-who-marry-their-ai-chatbotshttps://www.wired.com/story/couples-retreat-with-3-ai-chatbots-and-humans-who-love-them-replika-nomi-chatgpt/https://www.npr.org/2024/07/01/1247296788/the-benefits-and-drawbacks-of-chatbot-relationshipshttps://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/apr/15/she-helps-cheer-me-up-the-people-forming-relationships-with-ai-chatbotshttps://arstechnica.com/ai/2025/07/ai-therapy-bots-fuel-delusions-and-give-dangerous-advice-stanford-study-finds/https://www.nytimes.com/2025/06/13/technology/chatgpt-ai-chatbots-conspiracies.htmlhttps://www.vice.com/en/article/chatgpt-is-giving-people-extreme-spiritual-delusions/https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-features/ai-spiritual-delusions-destroying-human-relationships-1235330175/https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10686326/https://futurism.com/commitment-jail-chatgpt-psychosishttps://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2024/10/chatbots-posed-as-therapist-and-adult-lover-in-teen-suicide-case-lawsuit-says/https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.18412https://openai.com/index/sycophancy-in-gpt-4o/ This is a public episode.

Michael welcomes Dr. Jay Anders, Chief Medical Officer at Medicomp Systems to discuss AI hallucinations and their effect on patient safety and clinician trust.  

What if DMT isn't just a drug—but a technology? In thismind-expanding conversation, neurobiologist and chemist Dr.Andrew Gallimore takes us on a deep dive into the DMT experience and its implications for consciousness, reality, and human evolution. From unforgettable encounters with entities to the nature of simulation theory, we explore whether the DMT realm is real, what it means to “trespass” into alien dimensions, and whether these experiences are happening inside your brain—or somewhere far beyond it. We also discuss how DMT intersects with the UFO phenomenon, the distortion of time perception, and the provocative idea that death might not be the end… but just the beginning of astonishment. Follow Matt Beall Limitless: https://x.com/MattbLimitless https://www.tiktok.com/@mblimitless https://www.instagram.com/mattbealllimitless/ https://www.facebook.com/people/Matt-Beall-Limitless/61556879741320/ Listen on: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@mattbealllimitless Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/4PEaXTfAy8NkLjmukUJfXZ?si=b5fa7ee1b1d54736 Apple:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/matt-beall-limitless/id1712917413  Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-6727221 Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/MattBeallLimitless  Check out Andrew Gallimore:https://x.com/alieninsecthttps://www.instagram.com/alieninsect/https://www.buildingalienworlds.com/ Timeline:00:00:00 Introductions00:10:12 Initial Experience00:29:54 Entering the DMT World00:41:55 Most Memorable Entity00:44:25 Simulation01:09:57 How do we prove this is real?01:23:56 What are the entities?01:49:21 DMT is a Technology02:00:56 The Future of DMT02:04:47 Perception of Time02:09:35 UFO & UAP02:13:37 You Forgot02:15:09 Information in the DMT Space02:16:58 Is it in the Brain or Not?02:19:02 Are you trespassing?02:25:17 Why is DMT in the body?02:29:53 Death by Astonishment02:34:33 Closing

Law firm mergers and John Roberts brags for the crowd. ----- Has the era of the mid-sized firm come to an end? Probably not, but with increasing nationalization and the financial pressures that go along with it, mid-sized firms are consolidating and a valuable segment (and price point!) may be lost. Lawyers have faced a steady stream of sanctions for citing fake cases generated by AI, but now a judge officially blessed an order based on AI-hallucinated cases as a critical firewall in the war against machine slop is breached. While AI holds out promise for access to justice, the risk of a lawless free-for-all looms. Speaking of lawless free-for-alls, the Chief Justice explains that he doesn't care about substantive criticism of the Court because he has votes and the critics don't.

In the first episode of an "AI in the shadows" theme, Chris and Daniel explore the increasing concerning world of agentic misalignment. Starting out with a reminder about hallucinations and reasoning models, they break down how today's models only mimic reasoning, which can lead to serious ethical considerations. They unpack a fascinating (and slightly terrifying) new study from Anthropic, where agentic AI models were caught simulating blackmail, deception, and even sabotage — all in the name of goal completion and self-preservation. Featuring:Chris Benson – Website, LinkedIn, Bluesky, GitHub, XDaniel Whitenack – Website, GitHub, XLinks:Agentic Misalignment: How LLMs could be insider threatsHugging Face Agents CourseRegister for upcoming webinars here!

Today's guest shares her story of postpartum psychosis, including the contributing factors, navigating the healthcare system, the overall lack of understanding of PMADs, and the preventative actions she took for her second pregnancy. She shares how her experience propelled her to take considerable steps to help and support others. Nancy Di Nuzzo, a mother of two, is an accountant-turned-postpartum doula. She is the founder of Anamav Postnatal Care, an agency providing comprehensive postpartum care in the Greater Toronto area. Their services include doula support, lactation support, psychotherapy, and sleep coaching. Nancy was inspired to create Anamav after her own traumatic postpartum experiences. As a perinatal mental health advocate, she is fiercely determined to support new parents and families to help fill the gaps in our healthcare system.  Show Highlights: Nancy's first pregnancy experience with her daughter, born in 2020: In summary, sleep deprivation led to the first postpartum psychotic episode and subsequent hospitalization. The labor and delivery and the first five days postpartum, when everything changed for Nancy Feeling the intensity of hyperdrive and an overwhelming need for perfection Hallucinations (not threatening or violent) and a break from reality that prompted a call to 911 A shocking twist: The ER records showed suspected postpartum psychosis, but they still discharged Nancy and prescribed sleeping pills; she ended up back there three days later. Cultural stigma and family interference that did not help Nancy Nancy's misdiagnosis from the psychiatrist: A bipolar disorder that required lifelong medication The first night in the hospital and the traumatic events that still haunt Nancy's memories Reconnecting with her daughter after a week-long stay in the hospital Preparing for a second pregnancy with preventative measures–and finding a very different birth and postpartum experience in 2023 Nancy's perspective on what SHOULD have happened during her first pregnancy and how we can do better in the area of awareness The facts: Every postpartum journey is different; problems can happen with a first, second, or third pregnancy—or with none at all.  Anamav Postnatal and how they work to help others Resources: Connect with Nancy Di Nuzzo and Anamav Postnatal: Website and Instagram Call the National Maternal Mental Health Hotline at 1-833-TLC-MAMA or visit cdph.ca.gov Please find resources in English and Spanish at Postpartum Support International, or by phone or text at 1-800-944-4773.

Send us a textHow brains compute and learn, blending neuroscience with AI insights.Episode Summary: Dr. Marius Pachitariu discusses how the brain computes information across scales, from single neurons to complex networks, using mice to study visual learning. He explains the differences between supervised and unsupervised learning, the brain's high-dimensional processing, and how it compares to artificial neural networks like large language models. The conversation also covers experimental techniques, such as calcium imaging, and the role of reward prediction errors in learning.About the guest: Marius Pachitariu, PhD is a group leader at the Janelia Research Campus, leading a lab focused on neuroscience with a blend of experimental and computational approaches.Discussion Points:The brain operates at multiple scales, with single neurons acting as computational units and networks creating complex, high-dimensional computations.Pachitariu's lab uses advanced tools like calcium imaging to record from tens of thousands of neurons simultaneously in mice.Unsupervised learning allows mice to form visual memories of environments without rewards, speeding up task learning later.Brain activity during sleep or anesthesia is highly correlated, unlike the high-dimensional, less predictable patterns during wakefulness.The brain expands sensory input dimensionality (e.g., from retina to visual cortex) to simplify complex computations, a principle also seen in artificial neural networks.Reward prediction errors, driven by dopamine, signal when expectations are violated, aiding learning by updating internal models.Large language models rely on self-supervised learning, predicting next words, but lack the forward-modeling reasoning humans excel at.Related episode:M&M 44: Consciousness, Perception, Hallucinations, Selfhood, Neuroscience, Psychedelics & "Being You" | Anil Seth*Not medical advice.Support the showAll episodes, show notes, transcripts, and more at the M&M Substack Affiliates: KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + potassium, calcium & magnesium, formulated with kidney health in mind.

Send us a textFrom Elephant Butts to Ethical AI — Duncan Curtis on De-Risking GenAI at SamaEpisode intro Duncan Curtis, SVP for GenAI & AI Product + Technology at Sama, has shipped everything from autonomous-vehicle platforms at Zoox to game-changing data products at Google. Today he leads a 160-person team that's reinventing how training data is curated, labeled, and audited so enterprises can ship production-ready GenAI—without the lurking model risk. Sama's newest release, Sama Automate, is already cutting annotation time by 40 percent while keeping quality above SLAs, and Duncan says they're “aiming for a 10× improvement by 2025.” (aiuserconference.com, sama.com)If you want the inside track on AI ROI, ethical guardrails, and why A's hire A's (but B's hire C's!), lean in—this one's for you.
