What happens when AI-generated video becomes indistinguishable from reality — and it's cheaper than lunch?This week, the AI race took a dramatic turn. China didn't just catch up — in some areas, it leaped ahead. And with video models that generate flawless visuals and synchronized audio in real time, we've entered a new era where “seeing is believing” no longer applies.For business leaders, this isn't just geopolitical theater. It's a strategic inflection point. From AI-generated fraud and deepfake manipulation to workforce burnout driven by productivity acceleration, the rules of competition — and trust — are changing faster than most organizations can process.In this episode, we break down what China's AI surge really means, why deepfake technology is now a board-level issue, and how AI may be making your top performers more productive… and more exhausted.In this session, you'll discover:Why China's latest AI releases signal a shift in the global AI power balanceWhat makes ByteDance's new video model fundamentally different from U.S. competitorsHow AI-generated video with synchronized audio changes the fraud landscapeThe growing legal and regulatory backlash from Hollywood and governmentsWhy “Deepfake-as-a-Service” is becoming a criminal business modelThe real financial cost of AI-enabled fraud — and why it's acceleratingMicrosoft's legal action against synthetic abuse networksHow governments are attempting (and struggling) to regulate synthetic mediaWhy AI may increase burnout instead of reducing workloadThe “productivity treadmill” effect inside AI-enabled organizationsHow AI agents are transforming coding, databases, and knowledge workWhy only a tiny percentage of employees are true AI power usersWhat business leaders must do now to prepare for the next waveAbout Leveraging AI The Ultimate AI Course for Business People: https://multiplai.ai/ai-course/ YouTube Full Episodes: https://www.youtube.com/@Multiplai_AI/ Connect with Isar Meitis: https://www.linkedin.com/in/isarmeitis/ Join our Live Sessions, AI Hangouts and newsletter: https://services.multiplai.ai/events If you've enjoyed or benefited from some of the insights of this episode, leave us a five-star review on your favorite podcast platform, and let us know what you learned, found helpful, or liked most about this show!

The Context of White Supremacy (C.O.W.S.) Radio Program hosts the weekly summit on Neutralizing Workplace Racism 02/12/26. One of the less satisfying aspects of negro history is our tendency to brawl, fight and even kill other black people in the workplace. White people dominate the area of Labor and refuse to hire and/or unjustly fire black workers hourly. Yet, disgruntled black employees rarely become violent with the White managers and supervisors who fire us. In Mukwonago, Wisconsin, 38-year-old Lenard Hale, black male, was charged with attempted homicide in a vehicular hit-and-run. It's reported that Hale was recently terminated from his job at Aptar. He's accused of stalking his former coworker and striking him with his vehicle. No identifying information has been released about the victim, but Gus suspects this might be another Victim of Racism clinging to life. #WorkplaceViolence #TheCOWS17Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#

Feb 13, 2026: Inflation just cooled to 2.4%. Markets are betting on rate cuts. And at the same time, Anthropic raised $30 billion at a $380 billion valuation. That's not coincidence — it's transition. In today's episode, I break down: • What falling inflation actually means for capital and corporate strategy • Why Anthropic's massive funding round signals intelligence becoming infrastructure • The U.S. Department of Labor's new national AI literacy framework — and what it means for workforce strategy • The "AI scare trade" hitting markets beyond tech • Why IBM is tripling entry-level hiring in the middle of AI disruption This isn't about hype. It's about capital flows, workforce redesign, and how leadership must evolve as intelligence scales. When the cost of capital falls and the cost of intelligence falls, the cost of standing still rises. Let's unpack what this moment really means.

The changing of the guard at the top of the Federal Reserve comes at a crucial time for policymakers and markets. It is far from certain whether the promise of artificial intelligence heralds an era of stronger trend growth, or if the displacement in labor markets that might result will prove more damaging. Kevin Warsh’s term as Chairman will surely be defined as much by this question as his stated desire to reorient Fed policies and its mission. To discuss all of this, we are thrilled to welcome back Simona Mocuta, Chief Economist of State Street Investment Management.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Protesters around Australia, including Nick McKim and other Greens MPs, gathered to express opposition to the visit of the Israeli president, Isaac Herzog, this week. The Greens senator tells political editor, Tom McIlroy, that the confronting scenes of police aggression towards protesters in Sydney was a “massive overreach”. McKim is the Greens spokesperson for economic justice and treasury, and is now leading a parliamentary inquiry into the 50% capital gains tax discount. Labor has not ruled out possible changes to the generous tax breaks for investors ahead of the May budget. The Tasmanian senator argues that, with Greens' support, the government can “marry up the politics and the policy” to meaningfully addressing the housing crisis

Viele gut ausgebildete Frauen verfolgen dies mit Sorge. Die Dopingmethoden im Schweizer Spitzensport werden immer raffinierter.

Wie das geht, zeigt ein Blick hinter die Kulissen des einzigen Schweizer Dopinglabors in Lausanne.

In EBB 350, Krista DeYoung called in from her hospital room after weeks of inpatient monitoring for partial placental abruption. She and Dr. Rebecca Dekker had just finished a crash course on preparing for a Cesarean, not knowing that information would be needed just 30 minutes later.

In this episode of Dividend Cafe, Brian Szytel provides an update on a mixed market day with little movement in the indices. The DOW dropped by 66 points, the S&P was flat, and the Nasdaq saw a slight decrease. Bond yields rose following a strong non-farm payroll report, which showed 130,000 new jobs against an expected 55,000, led by the healthcare sector. The unemployment rate also decreased to 4.3%, while hourly wages grew by 0.4% for January, totaling a 3.7% year-over-year increase. Labor force participation ticked up to 62.5%. Szytel addresses questions about inflation perceptions versus reported CPI, explaining the difference between disinflation and deflation. He concludes with a reminder that good news should be seen positively and notes market reactions to Federal Reserve rate expectations. 00:00 Introduction and Market Overview 00:27 Employment Report Insights 01:25 Labor Force Participation Trends 04:00 Inflation and Personal Experience 05:20 Conclusion and Final Thoughts Links mentioned in this episode: DividendCafe.com TheBahnsenGroup.com

The U.S. economy opened 2026 on better footing, with the latest jobs report showing employers added 130,000 jobs in January. But the data also had revised figures that paint an even weaker picture of last year's performance. It comes as some corporations like Amazon and UPS are announcing layoffs.

Behind the scenes of everyday family life is a mental workload many of us carry without even realizing it, and that's exactly what Debbie Sorensen explores in her interview with sociologist Allison Daminger about her book, What's on Her Mind: The Mental Workload of Family Life. Allison defines cognitive labor as the invisible work of managing family needs and obligations, and walks us through its importance for individual well-being and relationship satisfaction. The discussion also touches on how these tasks are often unrecognized in statistics, the gender dynamics in cognitive labor, and the implications for families and workplaces. You'll also get a look at insights from her research involving both different-sex and same-sex couples, and she suggests ways to address gender imbalances through individual, cultural, and systemic changes.Listen and Learn: How cognitive household labor silently shapes family lifeHow mental load secretly drains energy in daily life and why the invisible tasks of keeping a household running can be more exhausting than anyone realizesWhy the small, everyday decisions parents make reveal hidden patterns in family life that most people never noticeWhy women often carry the mental load at home even when they out-earn or out-work their partnersHow couples explain unequal household labor reveals that what seems like personality differences is actually shaped by deeply ingrained social and cultural expectations around genderThe surprising ways “superhuman” and “bumbler” roles shape relationships and what small changes can help partners share the load more freelyInsights from same-sex couples on sharing mental load and the lessons they offer for balancing household responsibilitiesResources: What's on Her Mind: The Mental Workload of Family Life https://bookshop.org/a/30734/9780691245386Allison's Website: https://www.allisondaminger.com/Allison's Substack: https://allisondaminger.substack.com/Connect with Allison on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/allisondaminger/ About Allison DamingerAllison Daminger is an assistant professor of sociology at UW-Madison and the author of the new book What's on Her Mind: The Mental Workload of Family Life.

Kenya St. Lôt is a birth and postpartum doula honoring her African midwife ancestry. Together, they dismantle birth fears by reframing pain as a vital portal to empowerment, connection, and ancestral wisdom in pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.In this episode, you'll learn about:How pain forges unbreakable bonds with your baby, turning contractions into intuitive cues that guide positioning and progress for peaceful, even orgasmic births.Dismantling medical fears through education on epidurals, Pitocin, and interventions, using code words to reclaim choice in hospitals, birth centers, or home.Partner care as the grounded "tree" during labor—breathing together, affirming power, and planning conscious parenting to ease postpartum shifts.Ancestral rituals like 40-day rest, closing of the bones with rebozo, and yoni steaming to heal the postpartum portal and prevent energy depletion.Rebuilding the village: Grief in pregnancy, fear as a compass, and intuitive body trust to birth without trauma, honoring African lineage wisdom.Golden Nuggets From This Episode:✨ “Your boundaries, what you need, how you wanna give birth — because that is your birth. It's not the doctor's birth, it's not other people's experience, it's you and your baby.”✨ ”Birth requires safety and ownership; when you feel safe, your body can do what it was designed to do.✨ “If we feel fearful, our body is not going to relax. It will go into adrenaline and not let you dilate, and that's when contraction goes against your baby coming out — because fear tells the body it's not safe, and birth only flows where safety is felt.”✨ “Pain is a really important thing when you're giving birth.”✨ “When the partner has fears, it's valid.”✨ “We don't have the village anymore. One of the most ancestral and easy things is to bring back the village — because birth and motherhood were never meant to be carried alone.”✨ “Being pregnant and giving birth is temporary. Postpartum is for life. The way that you are cared for can impact the rest of your motherhood and your connection with your baby and your partner.”✨ “Having the uncomfortable conversations before conceiving is really important.”Connect More with Kenya:IG: https://www.instagram.com/kenyasaintlot/More Lexy from Heart Snuggles:Soft Girl Season {Instant Access Course}: https://lovelounge.iamlexydavis.com/offers/GCowWYXQEmail: lexy@alivetoenjoy.comDating + Relationship Coaching - https://iamlexydavis.com/Instagram: Alivetoenjoy & Heart SnugglesTimestamps from episode:04:16 Kenya's Journey into Birth and Pregnancy07:15 Understanding the Complexities of Pregnancy and Birth10:28 Empowering Women Through Education and Choices13:28 The Importance of Trust and Intuition in Birth15:28 Navigating Hospital Births and Medical Interventions21:12 The Power of Confidence and Overcoming Fear in Birth25:06 Signs of Labor and Code Words26:35 Navigating Complications During Birth27:56 The Beauty of Birth and Partner Support30:58 Partner Involvement and Postpartum Care38:36 Ancient Traditions and Postpartum Rituals41:14 The Importance of Community and Village Support43:22 Final Thoughts and Romantic Memories48:28 Conclusion and Heart Snuggles
