(October 28, 2025)Everything we know about 3I/ATLAS. Six words every killer should know: ‘I feared for my life, officer.' CEOs are furious about employees texting in meetings. Meet the young Americans who want a monarchy… but not Trump.

Michael speaks with Anthony Vinci, a former CIA officer and the first Chief Technology Officer of the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency. Anthony discusses his new book, "The Fourth Intelligence Revolution: The Future of Espionage and the Battle to Save America," arguing that AI has launched a revolution where "machines are going to spy on machines." Anthony warns that the new cyber threats mean every American is now a target, demanding a new strategy. He also explains why the U.S. must rethink policy to aggressively engage in economic espionage to counter China's broad surveillance strategy.

This week I go solo to reflect on my 10-week sabbatical and how it reshaped 2025 and even 2026. I share four core lessons, creating rhythms that make rest possible, trusting your team and processes, discerning rather than just deciding, and refusing to journey alone. I open  up about falling back in love with ordinary life on the family farm and the clarity that followed.

When we are trying to solve a problem, what happens? We find ourselves weighing arguments, or relying on intuition, then reaching a conscious decision about what to do. What is going on behind the scenes? In The Emergent Mind: How Intelligence Arises in People and Machines (Basic Books, 2025), Gaurav Suri and Jay McClelland show that our experience is the tip of an iceberg of brain activity that can be captured in an artificial neural network. Such networks--initially developed as models of ourselves--have become the engines of artificial neural intelligence. Suri and McClelland aren't reducing mankind to mere machines. Rather, they are showing how a data-driven neural network can create thoughts, emotions, and ideas--a mind--whether in humans or computers. The Emergent Mind provides a fascinating account of how we reach decisions, why we change our minds, and how we are affected by context and experience. Ultimately, the book gives a new answer to one of our oldest questions: Not just how do minds work, but what does it mean to be a mind at all? Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, I talk to Olaf Maecker, Vice President of AI & Automation at METRO.digital, about how artificial intelligence is evolving from a buzzword to a real business lever at METRO. Olaf explains how applications such as the Intelligent Sales Assistant support the Sales Force, how AI accelerates content production, and where new use cases are emerging in Procurement, Marketing, and Logistics. He shows how the AI Factory is creating a platform and organisation that makes AI solutions scalable – and why success depends not only on technology, but also on AI culture. A special highlight: Olaf is confronted with three surprising questions – not from me, but from the AI itself. In this unique section The AI asks Olaf a synthetic voice challenges him on topics such as ethics, data and the balance between people and AI. And as always, there is a personal Sound Souvenir at the end.

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik and mental health coach Davina Hehn cut through the fluff on anger. You'll learn how to read anger as data (not a defect), use nervous-system tools in the moment, and practice micro-repairs that rebuild trust at home and at work. Practical scripts, time-bound pauses, thought-stopping, and collaboration strategies make this a clear playbook for conflict without collateral damage. About the guest  : Davina Hehn is a trained therapist turned mental health coach. She helps people advocate for themselves without causing harm, regulate their nervous systems, and parent with accountability and repair. Key takeaways  : Anger is a pointer, not a personality flaw; it flags crossed boundaries, unmet needs, or perceived injustice. Do hourly micro-check-ins (jaw, heart rate, “cold-to-hot” scale) to catch activation early. Use a 30-second reset: notice body cues, name the need, choose a response over a reaction. Radical self-responsibility means holding multiple truths: “What I felt was valid; what I did wasn't helpful.” In-the-moment regulation: breathe with longer exhales; hum or lightly pinch fingertips for bilateral input; stay present. Create time-bound pauses: “I'm activated. I need 5 minutes. I'll come back.” Agree on a neutral cue word as a couple or family. Repair with consent and specifics: ask to revisit, share each perspective, name what you'll do differently next time. Aftercare matters: stop rumination with thought-stopping (visual stop sign) to complete the stress cycle. Prevention beats penance: set realistic timelines for behavior change; consistency rebuilds trust. Litmus test for action: channel anger into changes within your control; avoid rushing to act while still highly activated.SEO: anger intelligence, repair over rupture, parenting repair, conflict scripts, nervous system tools, relationship communication.

He explores AI's growing influence on investments, the labor market, and society, highlighting both its potential and the cautionary flags, such as possible overcapacity and the challenges it poses for younger generations. Joel then shifts focus to three major investment themes: the importance of national security in shaping investment decisions, the surge of private equity and private credit for everyday investors, and the need for careful portfolio allocation to avoid hidden overconcentration in growth stocks. Next, Joel breaks down everything you need to know about Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs)—from recent changes in age requirements to smart strategies for minimizing tax impact, including withholding and charitable giving. Whether you're nearing retirement or already enjoying it, this segment offers actionable advice to keep your finances on track. The episode also features a practical guide to Ladybird Deeds—an estate planning tool that helps homeowners transfer property to loved ones without the hassle of probate. Joel explains how Ladybird Deeds work, their advantages over traditional probate, and step-by-step instructions to implement this powerful tool. Rounding out the show, Joel reviews the latest market headlines, including a strong start to earnings season and how AI-driven efficiencies are helping corporate America outperform expectations. If you want to learn how AI is reshaping investments, the keys to managing your retirement withdrawals, and estate planning strategies that save time and money, this episode is packed with insights you won't want to miss.

Concurrence déloyale, recours aux œuvres d'autrui sans autorisation, accusations de plagiat ou tout simplement de nivellement de l'art par le bas : ce ne sont que quelques-uns des arguments utilisés pour dénoncer l'usage de l'intelligence artificielle dans l'art. Les appels à réguler, voire à renoncer à l'IA se multiplient. Et dans le même temps, certains artistes utilisent l'IA de plus en plus. Leurs créations finissent parfois aux enchères ou dans les musées. Avec parfois des polémiques : sont-ils de faux artistes voire des traîtres à la cause artistique ? Pour en débattre - Hugo Caselles-Dupré, chercheur en Intelligence artificielle et co-fondateur du collectif Obvious - Alexandre Gefen, directeur de recherche au CNRS, commissaire d'exposition, directeur de l'ouvrage Créativités artificielles – La littérature et l'art à l'heure de l'intelligence artificielle, éditions Les Presses du réel.

Le biomimétisme est l'art et la science qui consiste à s'inspirer des formes, matières, propriétés, processus et fonctions du Vivant pour produire des objets ou des techniques. Exemple : les ailes de l'oiseau ont inspiré l'aviation.Les biomiméticiens cherchent des solutions soutenables, utiles pour tout le Vivant et pas seulement pour l'humain. La bioinspiration est plus générique.

In this conversation, Drs. Gaurav Suri and Jay Mcclelland delves into the intricate relationship between artificial intelligence and human cognition, exploring similarities and differences, the evolution of AI from rule-based systems to learning models, and the concept of emergence in both fields. The discussion also touches on the efficiency of human learning compared to AI, the role of consciousness, and the ethical implications of AI technology.Takeaways AI and human intelligence share similarities in neural network frameworks. Artificial systems lack the goal-directed nature inherent in humans. Humans learn more efficiently than current AI systems. Neural networks can adapt to language nuances better than rule-based systems. Emergence explains how collective intelligence arises from individual components. Memory in neural networks is represented through connections, not individual units. Mathematics is both invented and discovered, shaped by human needs. Understanding consciousness is crucial for AI development. Human misuse of AI poses significant risks. Recognizing ourselves as processes can foster empathy and morality.Chapters 00:00 Introduction and Backgrounds 01:00 AI vs Human Mind: Similarities and Differences 03:32 The Shift from Rule-Based AI to Learning Systems 09:07 Emergence in Cognition: Ant Colonies and Intelligence 15:25 Distributed Representations and Memory Storage 23:53 The Nature of Memory and Its Malleability 25:40 Emergence of Mathematical Concepts 29:50 The Invention vs. Discovery Debate in Mathematics 32:19 Learning Mechanisms: Brain vs. AI 36:48 Consciousness: Function and Implications 41:13 AI Risks: Human Misuse vs. AI Autonomy 43:45 Living with Emergence: Understanding Ourselves and Others 48:22 Exploring the Emergent MindFollow Gaurav Suri on LinkedIn.

"What is life?" - asks Chris Kempes, a professor at the Santa Fe Institute.Chris explains that scientists are moving beyond a purely Earth-based, biological view and are searching for a universal theory of life that could apply to anything, anywhere in the universe. He proposes that things we don't normally consider "alive"—like human culture, language, or even artificial intelligence; could be seen as life forms existing on different "substrates".To understand this, Chris presents a fascinating three-level framework:- Materials: The physical stuff life is made of. He argues this could be incredibly diverse across the universe, and we shouldn't expect alien life to share our biochemistry.- Constraints: The universal laws of physics (like gravity or diffusion) that all life must obey, regardless of what it's made of. This is where different life forms start to look more similar.- Principles: At the highest level are abstract principles like evolution and learning. Chris suggests these computational or "optimization" rules are what truly define a living system.A key idea is "convergence" – using the example of the eye. It's such a complex organ that you'd think it evolved only once. However, eyes evolved many separate times across different species. This is because the physics of light provides a clear "target", and evolution found similar solutions to the problem of seeing, even with different starting materials.**SPONSOR MESSAGES**—Prolific - Quality data.

I started watching Daniel's show and listening to his Intel report a year or so ago. I find his topics well researched and reported on neutrally. I enjoy spending my mornings listening to the bigger wave tops of issues taking place around the world. HM Intelligence provides that to me. I reached out to Daniel, and he has been more than willing to answer all my questions and share his business with the audience. From his time in the New Zealand Army to corporate intelligence work, he provides great down-to-earth insight.

Back for another episode is our great friend Robert Gourlay of Mea Water going even more in depth on the healing power of water. Make sure you check out our previous episode with Robert and the link below the show notes. Water is far more than H₂O — it's a living, dynamic system of information and energy. In this episode, Dr. Perry sits down with Robert Gourlay, founder of Mea Water, to explore the science and mystery of structured and energy water — how it forms, how it interacts with the human body, and why its organization might be the missing link in healing, hydration, and cellular communication. Robert shares decades of research on how water holds memory, responds to energy fields, and connects all biological systems. You'll learn how structured water supports the body's natural bioelectrical flow, enhances lymphatic and mitochondrial function, and restores coherence to the fluid network of life — your internal Body Aquarium. This conversation will change how you see water forever. Previous Episode Link: link:  SCP Podcast Episode 254: Mea Water – Structured Water with Robert Gourlay

For decades, the developer terminal has remained largely unchanged. But for Warp CEO and co-founder Zach Lloyd, reinventing this core tool is the key to unlocking AI agents for coding, debugging, and automating the entire development process. Zach joins Elad Gil to discuss how seeing this opportunity for innovation led to Warp's agentic terminal for developers. Zach talks about the phases of software development, from coding by hand to the current "develop by prompt" era, and the coming age of fully automated development. Plus, Zach and Elad explore the deep philosophical questions around intelligence versus consciousness in AI models, and what it would take to believe a computer program is truly aware.

What happens when Dungeons & Dragons decides to give psionics another shot? The RPGBOT.Podcast dives headfirst into the Unearthed Arcana Psion Update—an experiment in psychic power, spell mechanics, and a whole lot of questionable design choices. From the disappointing Life Inversion Field to the glorious chaos of Psychic Scream, the crew breaks down what works, what doesn't, and what might just melt your brain.

Patreon supporters help shape the future of RPGBOT's deep dives into D&D, Pathfinder, and other TTRPG systems. Show Notes In this second half of the RPGBOT.Podcast review of Wizards of the Coast's Unearthed Arcana Psion Update, the hosts dissect the expanded spell list and the mechanics that define the psionic experience. The conversation begins with casual banter—complete with birthday wishes for Randall's mom—before diving deep into D&D's psychic frontier. Each spell gets the RPGBOT treatment, with careful attention to balance, design, and playability. The hosts critique heavy hitters like Abidalzim's Horrid Wilting, explore new mechanics in Bleeding Darkness and Ectoplasmic Trail, and question whether Ego Whip deserves a spot in anyone's spellbook. They also highlight bright spots like Enemies Abound and Intellect Fortress, praising their clarity and efficiency. The discussion doesn't shy away from tough critiques—Life Inversion Field and Life Siphon both fall flat, while the nerf to Mental Prison earns collective groans. Yet, redemption arrives in the form of Psionic Blast and Psychic Scream, which the hosts hail as excellent examples of balanced, high-impact design. Along the way, they examine how intelligence saving throws affect game balance, the evolution of psionics in D&D 5e, and the potential for homebrew fixes. Whether you're a dungeon master looking to integrate psionics or a player hunting for the next big spell combo, this episode offers insight, humor, and deep-cut analysis that only RPGBOT can deliver. Key Takeaways Abidalzim's Horrid Wilting remains underwhelming, suffering from outdated mechanics. Bleeding Darkness and Ectoplasmic Trail raise confusion about their effects and visuals. Ego Whip is compared to Silvery Barbs but feels weaker in execution. Enemies Abound and Intellect Fortress stand out as clear, effective designs. Life Inversion Field and Life Siphon fail to live up to their thematic potential. Mental Prison has been toned down, losing much of its utility. Psionic Blast and Psychic Scream emerge as the strongest new spells. Rolotham's Psychic Lance remains a problematic favorite for DMs. Healing spells in combat continue to suffer from low efficiency. Intelligence saving throws risk skewing spell balance toward niche builds. Telekinetic Crush introduces a new dynamic for psychic damage dealers. The hosts explore spell synergy and suggest tweaks to improve design consistency across psionic abilities. Buy Keith Amman's New Book!

The Demystify Duo sits down for a conversation about the hidden variable that decides how successful someone's ideas will be. Normally, you hear that intelligence, the “g-factor” that Richard Haier and other intelligence reasearchers point to, is the decisive factor for worldly success. And while that might be true in some purely quantitative sense that's measured in terms of salary or stock options or whatever, that seems to not be the most important thing for being able to see the world accurately. We spend the conversation trying to define what that hidden variable is, and why it's so important to cultivate, and how weird it is that no one seems to realize it's there.

In part two of my on-site taping at CCE 2025 with Esteban Kolsky, we get into what he's learned in the past year on curating intelligence for executives. But why is there a need for this service? How are the big analyst firms falling short? Is the AI research disruption real, BS, or some combination? Kolsky walks us through what he's learned in the last year, firming up a curated intelligence offering for executives and boards with Constellation Research. And yes, AI is involved, but with a twist.

In this episode, we dive into the cutting-edge world of artificial intelligence with Dr. Alex Mehr, the Co-Founder and CEO of Famous.ai. A former NASA scientist, Dr. Mehr is now a serial entrepreneur and investor on a mission to empower the next generation of professionals through AI-powered M&A solutions.  He joins us to share what makes his approach to innovation so unique — and how synthetic intelligence is reshaping the way entrepreneurs bring ideas to life… This conversation covers: How Dr. Mehr became an “idea machine.” The ways in which AI has changed the way entrepreneurs function in the marketplace. What synthetic intelligence is, and how it orchestrates multiple AI tools.  You can follow along with Dr. Mehr and his work on Instagram, X, and his personal website.

In this episode of Great Women in Compliance, co-host Hemma Lomax sits down with Anna Pitt-Stanley, Co-Founder and COO of Umony, to explore how the next generation of compliance technology can transform how organizations listen to their people, their culture, and their risk signals. From her early work in voice innovation to co-founding Umony, Anna's journey is rooted in a simple but powerful idea: that the truth of human behavior lives in communication. She and her co-founder, Dean Elwood, were driven by the frustration of seeing compliance programs overwhelmed by data but starved for insight. Together, they set out to build a company that turns conversations into decision-useful intelligence, without losing the human heart at the center of it all. Anna shares how she leads with empathy, builds trust through operational discipline, and models what it looks like to be a C-suite leader who truly cares. This episode blends technology, leadership, and compassion — and reminds us that compliance done well is less about control and more about connection. Episode highlight: What does “the truth of behavior lives in communication” mean for compliance and culture? How to balance surveillance and stewardship in modern communications governance. Building a culture of compliance and compassion inside a high-growth tech company. Leadership lessons from scaling with integrity: operational empathy, psychological safety, and trust by design. The future of decision-useful compliance and what human-centric technology looks like in practice. Biography: Anna Pitt-Stanley is Co-Founder and Chief Operating Officer of Umony, where she leads operational governance, talent, partnerships, and disciplined execution as the company scales. Before Umony, Anna co-founded Voxygen, a voice and communications innovation company later acquired by Lebara Group, where she served on the leadership team and board. Over her career, she has built a reputation for bridging complex, regulated environments with practical, people-first execution, delivering programs that align compliance, operations, and culture. Anna holds an LL.M. in Law from the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE). She also serves as a Director of Umony Limited and Umony Holdings Limited. She is known for her focus on operational empathy, governance excellence, and creating workplaces where compliance and compassion thrive side by side.
