People always ask, what is it like to work in the music industry and how do artists make a living? Can you survive from making content for YouTube? During the pandemic, that question has become much more complex. However, they still say, ‘slow and steady wins the race'. Over the past 6 years I've known her, I've watched Minami grow in every way while relentlessly releasing songs and music videos on her duo CREAM's YouTube Channel as well as going out and making it happen live on tour throughout the year. Her story is one that drives home a healthy reminder of the fundamentals of persistence and courage. Courage to go against expectations and the beyond the obligatory and at times around the seemingly very operational practices in the Japanese entertainment industry. From working with some of the biggest names in Japan's music industry to her hilarious stories of humble beginnings, I am honored to share the #UpgradeMe story of Minami from CREAM. ---Welcome back to #UpgradeMe.

Today, we dive deep into the world of a true virtuoso, Jordan Rudess, whose journey from being a classical pianist at Juilliard in New York to the keyboard wizard of Dream Theater is nothing short of extraordinary. Imagine a young prodigy, trained in the hallowed halls of Juilliard, choosing to abandon the predictable path to explore the uncharted realms of progressive rock. Much like an artist swapping the traditional canvas for the digital screen, Rudess embraces synthesizers and innovation, crafting soundscapes that transcend the ordinary. His story is a symphony of bold decisions and relentless pursuit of musical excellence. From his early days in the electronic space music band "Complex", to transforming into a titan of the prog-metal scene with Dream Theater, Jordan's career is a testament to the power of following one's passion. He seamlessly blends the precision of classical training with the experimental edge of rock, much like a master chef blending the most unexpected ingredients to create a culinary masterpiece. Join us as we explore the mind of a man who doesn't just play keyboards — he redefines them. We'll discuss his groundbreaking work with Liquid Tension Experiment, his ventures into software development with Wizdom Music, and his role as an educator shaping future generations of musicians. Ready yourself for a journey through realms of music innovation and creativity with the one and only Jordan Rudess. --- Welcome back to #UpgradeMe.

In a world of hustlers, bustlers and innovators, we all seek balance. Combining classical realism at the urban edge of hip-hop and street art, Justin BUA balances being a forward thinking artist while reinventing the classical brush on canvas medium through original caricatures from his colorful youth, statement pieces of pop-culture icons and his one and only globally top selling posterized painting “the DJ”. Even if you haven't heard of him, you've most likely seen his work as it can be seen at The renowned Los Angeles County Museum of Art, on the TV shows he has hosted, music videos, major brand campaigns and gracing the walls in the homes of Hollywood and NBA royalty. It's my pleasure to speak with the artist, the trailblazer, the OG, Justin BUA.

In today's podcast, we sit down with Mark Leong, a fifth-generation Chinese-American photographer, for Picturing World Cultures. Above photograph © Mark Leong From his arrival in 1980s Beijing on a one-year travel fellowship, to his decision to live and work there long-term over the following decades, we follow Mark's path from his ancestral village to the Beijing art scene, and beyond. He walks us through his experiences in documenting the massive cultural shifts as Chinese society transitioned from uniformity and limited choice to a realm of consumerism and increasing globalization. We also discuss Mark's long-term photographic project featuring China's Post-90's generation, the young adults born under the country's one-child policy. As Mark points out toward the end of our chat, “What's interesting to me about this generation I'm photographing is that they have this kind of creativity, and they have the resources to use this creativity to make something.” If you haven't already listened, check out all the episodes of our Picturing World Cultures podcast series here.

  AI governance is a rapidly evolving field that faces a wide array of risks, challenges and opportunities. For organizations looking to leverage AI systems such as large language models and generative AI, assessing risk prior to deployment is a must. One technique that's been borrowed from the security space is red teaming. The practice is growing, and regulators are taking notice. Brenda Leong, a partner of Luminos Law, helps global businesses manage their AI and data risks. I recently caught up with her to discuss what organizations should be thinking about when diving into red teaming to assess risk prior to deployment.

Over the past 4 decades, hidden away in the hills of my tiny hometown in Belmont, California lies OTR Studio. It's a full functioning ultra-high-definition recording studio that rivals any in the world. At the studio, Gold Record Selling Artists, Grammy Winning Musicians and Academy Award film companies come to work with one of the rare gurus of sound. It took me 20 years of living in New York to realize I had a world class haven at OTR Studio to record in my own home town. Some people play instruments, like how I play the cello and trombone, some find new ways to invent instruments like DJ Qbert and his turntables and some rare talents, create and play the studio itself. Cookie Marenco makes her vintage mixing board and her stacks of sound signal processing modules into her personalized instruments. Her sensitivity to sound, experience in mixing and ability to pull and produce the best performances out of many artists is akin to a concert pianist feeling the touch of the keys to bring the most precise and dynamically beautiful music into real life. There's a reason many music legends such as saxophonist Charlie Parker's drummer Max Roach, the pianists Brad Mehldau, Jon Jang, the late great Chick Corea and major companies like Lucas Films and Sony all come to Cookie to fine tune their recordings. I came to record the podcast interview and we ended up creating an entire album. It is my honor to learn and share in real time, the evolution of audio in the highest possible fidelity, with Cookie Marenco.

On earning the heightened moments in your writing. Also, you don't have to be writing to be writing! Julie Leong is a Chinese Malaysian American fantasy author who grew up across both New Jersey and Beijing, China. She studied economics and political science at Yale and works in tech, but she has always nurtured a deep love for sci-fi/fantasy beneath her corporate exterior. Julie lives in San Francisco with her husband, their rescue pup, and a magical Meyer lemon tree in the backyard that somehow always has ripe lemons. When she's not writing, she enjoys making unnecessary spreadsheets and flambéing things. The Teller of Small Fortunes is her debut novel.

We often take certain things for granted, especially when it comes to the autonomy of how a restaurant works. If designing and running one of the biggest and busiest restaurants in the Bay Area isn't a big enough task for you to underestimate, imagine conceptualizing and running sixteen of them. Maybe it would take someone with the business sense of a Wall Street banker, the mental fortitude of a China Town Big Boss, the connections of a million-miler doing deals from Shanghai to San Francisco and someone who sees and jumps at opportunities to improve their industry on an artistic and systematic level. I am thrilled that life brought us to this juncture where that person has agreed to sit down with us on #UpgradeMe.

You can mention pretty much any important figure from music in the last 5 decades and it's a solid bet he's been involved with a collaboration. From the smooth grooves of Barry White to the innovative beats of Daft Punk, Nathan's bass has been the backbone of countless hits. His collaborations span genres and generations, making him a true titan of the music industry. But Nathan's talents extend beyond the bass. He's also an accomplished amateur magician as a member of The Magic Castle and the Academy of Magical Arts. His love for magic “and” music began in his childhood, studying cello in his junior high school's orchestra, much like… uh.. me (Dana). Today, we dive deep into his musical development and life experiences that which have shaped him into the man he is today.

THE BRIDGE, 85min., USA Directed by Evan Jackson Leong Fifty years ago, our country grappled with widespread discrimination. In Los Angeles, neighborhood leaders challenged these barriers by establishing a community-focused bank, aiming to deliver the American dream to all. The East West Bank Foundation commissioned director Evan Leong to create The Bridge, which explores the struggles, perseverance, and successes of this remarkable journey. http://www.thebridge-film.com/ Get to know the filmmaker: As a 6th generation Chinese American I've been fortunate to tell the stories of my community. The Bridge is a story about a humble Chinatown bank that not only grew the community but became a global influence furthering our place in society. For me, I'd be happy to tell these stories for the rest of my career. I was not only inspired but blessed to collaborate with the East West Foundation and Dominic Ng.

Very few people have attained the level of innovation in their craft as DJ Qbert. The saying “If You Build It, They Will Come” was written about guys like him. Years before rising to global fame, he had already been discovering and perfecting a huge number of turntable routines and tricks that would become standardized scratches, staple sounds in hip-hop, pop culture caricatures in TV/Film/Video games, a focus within numerous music and sound production schools and the absolute metric of talent at the famed Disco Mix Club aka the DMC International DJ Competition. Qbert has bravely and pridefully straddled the line between commercial successes as visible as TV commercials for Apple and his own deep dirty break beat cuts such as ‘Galactic Butthair', pioneering scratch music film scores for psychedelic animated movies such as ‘Wavetwisters' and founding his own Qbert Skratch University. There is no way to ever be fully prepared for the freestyle music and comedy extravaganza that is the master DJ Qbert, and I'm honored to say we tried today on #UpgradeMe. https://www.DJqbert.com https://www.youtube.com/@thudrumble TEKTONIK Music Workout Diary by Dana Leong #TKwork A free workout journal curated by Grammy Musician & Wellness Enthusiast Dana Leong - Tag @TEKTONIKmusic #TKwork, Share, Tweet, DO IT! bit.ly/TKWORK Welcome back to Upgrade Me.

There are a number of sayings in business that ring true and are constantly repeated like a broken record. ‘Time in the market beats timing the market', ‘location location location', ‘A lot of it (business) has to do with luck', ‘know thy customer' and the list goes on and on. In as many ways as we can count, Dr. Ta-Lin Hsu has played a most impressive game of career chess. Joining the Hambrecht & Quist Group as a general partner in 1985, then founding H&Q Asia Pacific in 1986, there have been a series of household names incubated under his wing such as MTV's migration into Japan and Starbucks into China, not to mention over 2.7 billion dollars in committed capital. His achievements read like a rolodex of headlines from BusinessWeek's “Stars of Asia”, one of Forbes magazine's Top 25 Tech Deal Makers, Top Deal Maker in 2008, Fortune Magazine's top 100 People Influencing China and the World's Capital Flow and he now sits on numerous boards for the advancement of technology as well as Charing philanthropies improving quality of life in underserved areas of the world and the furthering of global harmony through international music collaborations.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: In DC, a new wave of AI lobbyists gains the upper hand, published by Chris Leong on May 13, 2024 on The Effective Altruism Forum. "The new influence web is pushing the argument that AI is less an existential danger than a crucial business opportunity, and arguing that strict safety rules would hand America's AI edge to China. It has already caused key lawmakers to back off some of their more worried rhetoric about the technology. ... The effort, a loosely coordinated campaign led by tech giants IBM and Meta, includes wealthy new players in the AI lobbying space such as top chipmaker Nvidia, as well as smaller AI startups, the influential venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz and libertarian billionaire Charles Koch. ... Last year, Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) declared himself "freaked out" by cutting-edge AI systems, also known as frontier models, and called for regulation to ward off several scary scenarios. Today, Lieu co-chairs the House AI Task Force and says he's unconvinced by claims that Congress must crack down on advanced AI. "If you just say, 'We're scared of frontier models' - okay, maybe we should be scared," Lieu told POLITICO. "But I would need something beyond that to do legislation. I would need to know what is the threat or the harm that we're trying to stop." ... After months of conversations with IBM and its allies, Rep. Jay Obernolte (R-Calif.), chair of the House AI Task Force, says more lawmakers are now openly questioning whether advanced AI models are really that dangerous. In an April interview, Obernolte called it "the wrong path" for Washington to require licenses for frontier AI. And he said skepticism of that approach seems to be spreading. "I think the people I serve with are much more realistic now about the fact that AI - I mean, it has very consequential negative impacts, potentially, but those do not include an army of evil robots rising up to take over the world," said Obernolte."

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Does reducing the amount of RL for a given capability level make AI safer?, published by Chris Leong on May 5, 2024 on LessWrong. Some people have suggested that a lot of the danger of training a powerful AI comes from reinforcement learning. Given an objective, RL will reinforce any method of achieving the objective that the model tries and finds to be successful including things like deceiving us or increasing its power. If this were the case, then if we want to build a model with capability level X, it might make sense to try to train that model either without RL or with as little RL as possible. For example, we could attempt to achieve the objective using imitation learning instead. However, if, for example, the alternate was imitation learning, it would be possible to push back and argue that this is still a black-box that uses gradient descent so we would have no way of knowing that the internals were safe. Would this be likely to lead to a safer model or is the risk mostly independent of RL? Notes: Obviously, someone could probably then apply RL to any such model in order to produce a more powerful model. And having a safe model of capacity level X doesn't save you from someone else building an unsafe model of capacity X unless you've got a plan of how to use the model to change the strategic situation. But I think it's worth considering this question all the same, just in case some of the governance interventions end up bearing fruit and we do end up with the option to accept less powerful systems.
