Can you really retire off Bitcoin — even if the price drops 50%? Mark Moss returns to Coin Stories to explain why he believes you can, what most people misunderstand about volatility, and why becoming a forced seller can be more dangerous than a falling market.

A medical student offered a professor $1,000 to write their residency essay, and the reason why was not laziness. In this episode, Kathleen Muldoon, a certified coach and medical education professor, shares what she learned when she sat that student down for an honest conversation. You will hear why so many students freeze on the personal statement, why the fear is less about writing and more about who they think they are allowed to be on the page, and how this connects to a kind of burnout that looks less like exhaustion and more like identity erosion. You will also hear why AI cannot solve this, since it blends every applicant into the same voice, and what Muldoon does instead to help students find their own story. This episode is based on her article "The residency personal statement is an identity problem," published on KevinMD. Press play to hear why the essay that decides so many residency spots is really a question about identity, and what students can do about it. Partner with me on the KevinMD platform.

For twenty-five years we sent the struggling kid to the back of the room with headphones on. Todd Brekhus of Renaissance explains why that model broke personalized learning, and how teacher-facing AI hands the room back to you. Todd Brekhus is Chief Product Officer at Renaissance, General Manager of Nearpod, a former English teacher and technology director, and the creator of the myON literacy platform. We recorded this conversation at ISTE 2026. In this episode, you'll learn: - Why "personalized learning" quietly pushed teachers out of the loop, and what changes when you say "personalized teaching and learning" instead - How to pull last year's skill-level data and plan two paths before tomorrow's lesson - Why back-of-the-room intervention stigmatizes kids, and how to differentiate inside the core lesson - The case for a formative check every six to eight minutes without leaving your slides - Why Renaissance deliberately chose not to build student-facing AI, and what productive struggle has to do with it This episode is sponsored by Renaissance.

Today, a brief wrap of yesterday's equity market session in the US, which repeated some of the recent AI hardware vs. SaaS performance divergences. A couple of key AI-chip and hardware names reported with results that didn't satisfy the market. We also look at the US CPI release and the reaction across macro, noting a key US treasury auction up later today. Also, we read aloud a great email sent to us by a long-time SMC listener on the chaos that AI LLMs have unleashed on IT operations for companies and the internet. Today's pod hosted by Saxo Global Head of Macro Strategy John J. Hardy. Links Cory Doctorow again on AI model collapse, with a particularly interesting link to a Lauren's data Substack post wonderfully titled "Temperature Zero for Culture: Why Everything Is Starting to Look the Same." Which makes us proud to produce a very non-AI generated podcast every day that doesn't try to be like anyone else. There has been a lot of overage of Bill Ackman's latest position changes from his Pershing Square 13F filing. Here's a useful X post that usefully pastes in the coverage from his letter to shareholders.

Send us Fan MailAI is making real estate faster, smarter, and easier to scale - but it's also making fraud cheaper, faster, and more convincing. The agents and brokerages that win next may not be the ones using the most AI, but the ones consumers trust with their money.Gary Pickren lays out the new reality real estate professionals are walking into, where fabricated emails, cloned voices, manipulated documents, and AI-generated video can all be used to fool buyers, sellers, and even seasoned teams. The upside is real. So is the risk.You'll hear how AI is already improving marketing, communication, research, contract review, scheduling, and transaction management, while simultaneously raising the stakes around identity, verification, and client protection. The conversation centers on a critical shift: technology can accelerate your business, but trust is what will separate the companies people choose.You'll discover why deception is becoming more accessible than ever, what that means for real estate operations, and how forward-thinking firms can build systems that protect clients before a problem happens. Gary also explains why confidence alone is no longer enough - modern consumers want proof that you have safeguards in place.If you work in real estate, lead a brokerage, or care about how AI is reshaping high-trust industries, this is essential listening. It's a wake-up call about the future of the business and a reminder that in an AI world, trust is becoming the ultimate competitive advantage.You'll learn about:• The difference between fraud detection and fraud-resistant design• Why "recognition is not authentication"• The Transaction Trust Ceremony• Transaction verification passphrases• The Two-Channel Rule• Why financial instructions should never change by email alone• Protecting employees from AI-powered social engineering• Protecting your digital identity• Creating a Zero-Trust Closing• The S.T.O.P. fraud-prevention framework• Five changes REALTORS® can make immediately• Risk-tiering transactions for attorneys, lenders and title companiesAnd remember the simplest rule from this episode:MONEY MOVES = TWO CHANNELS.If money is moving or financial instructions suddenly change, stop and independently verify before acting.If this episode could protect one agent, buyer, seller, lender or closing professional from fraud, share it with someone in the industry.#RealEstate #ArtificialIntelligence #AIFraud #RealEstateFraud #WireFraud #Cybersecurity #Realtor #RealEstateAgent #ClosingAttorney #MortgageFraud #Deepfake #RealEstateTechnology #DishinDirtDon't forget to like us and share us!Gary* Gary serves on the South Carolina Real Estate Commission as a Commissioner.

You are losing sales every time a customer says it is too expensive, they need to talk to their spouse, or they want to check with another agent first. On August 20th at noon CST, Michael is teaching a free live training on exactly how to overcome objections in the auto conversation.

What happens when a hospital trusts a robot as much as one of its own team members? In this episode of Outcomes Rocket, Saul Marquez speaks with Sultan Mehrabi, CEO of Relay Robotics, and Craig Anderson, Vice President of Innovation at BayCare, about how autonomous delivery robots are transforming hospital operations through a collaborative innovation partnership. They explain how Relay robots safely transport lab samples, medications, and other critical items, allowing nurses and pharmacy staff to spend more time on direct patient care while maintaining a secure chain of custody and reliable delivery. The conversation highlights that successful healthcare innovation depends less on adopting AI for its own sake and more on solving real workflow problems through close collaboration, user adoption, and continuous improvement. They also discuss why reliability, trust, and seamless integration into hospital infrastructure are essential for autonomous robotics to become accepted by clinicians, patients, and health systems alike. Learn how one health system is using autonomous robotics to improve patient care, reduce staff workload, and redefine what successful healthcare innovation really looks like!

The episode highlights the shift toward AI-driven knowledge management within the MSP sector, revealing increased operational dependency on structured data and sophisticated integrations. Lexful, an AI-native documentation platform designed specifically for MSPs, represents this trend by positioning itself not as a simple add-on but as a replacement for legacy documentation tools—controlling critical record-keeping functions and interfacing with principal PSA and RMM systems. This development signals greater infrastructure dependence on AI-based documentation and the implications of technical integration across diverse operational tools. According to Lexful's CEO and statements made during the episode, the platform has completed integrations with major PSA and RMM tools and now handles data by employing a “context-engineered” large language model tailored specifically to the MSP context. Lexful claims its engine minimizes LLM hallucinations, supports record-level access control, and functions as a system of record rather than a direct action platform. Socializing its compliance trajectory, Lexful has achieved SOC 2 Type 2 and shipped its MCP server, but its listing in marketplaces like Pax8 and SureWeb has been delayed, with current status characterized as “coming soon” and full integration targeted before the end of 2026. Supporting developments underscore the complexity and risk of deploying AI-native platforms into MSP environments. The absence of public customer or partner counts persists, with the company attributing constrained accessibility to pending integrations rather than lack of market uptake. Pricing structures diverge from incumbents, moving from per-user to per-client models and establishing minimum contract terms—raising questions about justification of cost versus legacy alternatives. A key operational risk centers on access control and human-in-the-loop governance, with sensitive systems such as password vaults only accessible through layered permissions, and Lexful emphasizing the necessity of robust accountability frameworks to minimize harm from potential automation failures. Practical implications for MSPs include heightened need for rigorous governance of AI systems, especially around data access, role management, and auditability. Vendor dependency deepens as platforms like Lexful supplant multiple existing tools and drive uptake via deeper integration with distribution marketplaces and SaaS ecosystems. Pricing and contract structures require MSPs to reconsider value calculations, as cost is no longer purely user-driven but tied to client volume and operational breadth. The tradeoff is between purported efficiency gains from automation and the risk profile associated with delegating documentation and knowledge management to AI-based infrastructure, particularly as human oversight remains essential to mitigate errors and ensure regulatory compliance.

On this episode of The Futures Rundown, host Mark Longo welcomes back Brett Friedman of Winhall Risk Analytics and OptionMetrics for a deep dive into one of the strangest stories in the futures markets: crude oil's surprisingly underwhelming response to a major geopolitical conflict. With dire supply warnings and plenty of doom-and-gloom predictions, many expected crude to explode higher. Instead, the rally has repeatedly struggled to live up to the hype. Brett compares the current environment with previous oil-market disruptions, including the historic volatility of 2020, and explains why this latest episode hasn't come close to matching those extremes. We also discuss: Why crude oil hasn't behaved the way many fundamental analysts expected The unusual volatility picture in WTI What's driving heating oil and gasoline Why gold and silver have fallen out of the market spotlight The return of the AI trade and the "most hated" equity rally What's happening in rates and the Fed-watching game Natural gas and the strange predictability of seasonal trading The steepening VIX futures curve Why palladium may have attracted the wrong crowd Whether traders are using the VIX the wrong way And much more

The streaming service says the AI Persona badge, that will start appearing on some profiles from mid-September, will flag to listeners if an "artist's identity may be AI-generated and does not represent a real person". The changes are being introduced to give users "more transparency" about what they're hearing, Spotify says. It comes after some music fans made it "clear" to the streamer they don't like seeing a profile that seems to be a human, to then realize it's AI-generated.

My newsletter: https://simonowens.substack.com/   Nate Stone was still in high school when he built a YouTube channel with hundreds of thousands of subscribers by filming science and engineering experiments in his garage. But unlike many creators who stumble into a large audience, Stone never had much interest in turning that audience into a full-fledged media business. He eventually walked away from YouTube, studied physics, math, and computer science, worked on AI at Amazon, and then teamed up with his brother to build DittoDub, an AI-powered dubbing platform designed to help YouTubers reach audiences in dozens of languages. In a recent interview, Stone explained how his frustrations as a teenage YouTuber helped inspire DittoDub, why the company focused on winning over large creators through product quality and word of mouth, and how multilingual audio can trigger enormous audience growth on YouTube.

In this podcast, Greg Voisen sits down with workplace strategy expert and author Melissa Swift to unpack the radical ideas behind her book, Effective: How to Do Great Work in a Fast-Changing World. In an era dominated by burnout, endless Zoom calls, and constant technological disruption, Swift challenges the conventional push for mere "productivity" and offers a far more sustainable path: true workplace effectiveness. Drawing from high-stakes professions—from the meteorologist who predicted catastrophic fires to air traffic controllers and ER doctors—she reveals why the secret to thriving isn't constantly innovating or trying to fix all your weaknesses, but rather leaning into your core strengths and embracing the "boring" routines that free up vital cognitive space. Whether you are an overwhelmed employee swimming in an overflowing inbox or a leader trying to manage an unpredictable team, this conversation uncovers a refreshing "third way" forward where both companies and individuals can actually win together.

His mission: to warn the next generation about the dangers of unchecked science and technology. Through novels such as one hundred Years to Extinction and its sequel, 12 Years to AI Singularity, he sounds the alarm on the potential tyranny of technology. Astrophysicist Stephen Hawking's prediction of human extinction by 2117 may prove accurate, as the rapid advance of science and technology has outpaced society's ability to manage them. Threats include fossil fuels, nuclear weapons, uncontrolled artificial intelligence, misused genetic engineering, disinformation on social media, and plastic pollution. His goal is to raise awareness and urgency in confronting these technological risks. By making complex issues accessible through storytelling, he aims to unite humanity as the EARTHLING TRIBE and inspire collective action to MAKE EARTH GREAT AGAIN. https://100yearstoextinction.com/12-years-to-ai-singularity/http://www.yourlotandparcel.orgSupport the show

Key Takeaways: Merchant Banking and Real Assets: Merchant banking has created wealth by understanding the cost of producing physical goods. Today, these ideas can also be applied to digital assets and new markets. Electricity Is Becoming More Important: As technology and AI grow, electricity is becoming a major economic resource. Understanding energy costs can help investors better understand modern markets. Technology Can Lower Costs: New technology often makes it cheaper to produce goods and services. Bitcoin works differently because its network is designed to make producing new Bitcoin increasingly difficult over time. Bitcoin Connects Money and Energy: Bitcoin mining uses real-world electricity and computing power. This gives Bitcoin a unique connection between digital money and physical energy. Buy at Low Costs, Sell Into Strong Demand: A long-standing investment strategy is to understand production costs and market demand. Investors can look for opportunities when assets are priced near their underlying costs and consider selling when demand and liquidity are high.   Chapters: Timestamp Summary 0:00 Mastering Merchant Banking and Electricity's New Age Playbook 1:57 Understanding Merchant Banking and Civilization's Financial Foundations 6:25 Understanding Liquidity Cycles and Market Timing Strategies 9:11 Bitcoin's Unique Value Anchored in Energy and Technology 14:30 Bitcoin's Design Balances Wealth Accumulation and Generational Challenges 16:47 Understanding Bitcoin's Production Costs and Market Dynamics 23:04 Parenting Challenges During COVID-Induced Anxiety 23:37 Mastering Bitcoin Cycles for Long-Term Wealth Accumulation   Powered by Stone Hill Wealth Management   Social Media Handles    Follow Phillip Washington, Jr. on Instagram (@askphillip)   Subscribe to Wealth Building Made Simple newsletter https://www.wealthbuildingmadesimple.us/   Ready to turn your investing dreams into reality?

Can you trust a poll when no human ever picked up the phone? Eric sits down with Matthew Hanauer, co-founder of Civly, to unpack synthetic polling — building AI simulations of real, individually-modeled voters (using public voter file, demographic, and donation data) to predict how they'd respond to a survey. Matt walks through how Civly back-tests its models against real election results, why asking AI yes/no questions produces unrealistically extreme answers, why piling on more data (like social media) can actually make predictions worse, and how turnout modeling benefits from more than just "did they vote last time." Eric and Matt land on where AI polling actually fits into a campaign's toolkit in 2026: filling the gap for downballot races that could never afford a traditional poll, and pressure-testing messages before committing budget to the real thing. Visit our website: CampaignTrend.com

Porsche just announced workforce cuts because of dropping sales in China. Every board reads that as an operations problem. It isn't. It's a risk problem — and it's the wrong risk almost every board is looking at. Here's what nobody asks in the boardroom: once a strategy is successfully implemented, what new risk did it just add to the business? Not the risk of getting there. The risk of what you've built once you have. That's the question 99% of boards never answer, because most don't have a way to see it.In this video I walk through how we use Michael, our internal AI, to build a digital clone of a company, plot its actual risk and return position against the efficient frontier, and test what a proposed strategy does to that position before a single dollar moves. I use Porsche as the live example: what happens to their risk profile if they cut back cautiously versus if they fully rebalance toward EV and the Americas. This isn't a theoretical framework. It's portfolio modeling — the same logic that governs a diversified investment portfolio — applied to a company's revenue streams and cost base. Correlated streams add risk. Diversified ones don't. Most executive teams have never plotted their own business this way, which means most boards are approving strategy without knowing if it moves them toward more return for the same risk, or just more risk they haven't priced. If you sit on a board, run a strategy function, or advise one, this is the question you should be asking before the next planning cycle — not after.   Free resource library.

Get in touch - leave me a messageSoil health is starting to look less like an environmental side issue and more like infrastructure. The real question is whether regenerative agriculture can improve resilience and economics without asking farmers to absorb years of financial pain.My guest is Tim Weaver of Holganix, working at the intersection of soil health, regenerative agriculture and measurable environmental outcomes. We look at the pressures farmers and companies already recognise: volatile fertiliser costs, water scarcity, supply-chain risk, and the growing demand for credible soil carbon claims rather than estimates and greenwash.We examine what changes when soil outcomes can be measured using cores, probes, farm equipment data and satellite imagery; why AI still depends on having enough reliable data underneath it; and whether water may ultimately matter more than carbon. We also challenge the assumption that regenerative agriculture necessarily means lower profitability before the benefits arrive.Listen now to understand why soil is moving from the sustainability conversation into the risk, finance and infrastructure conversation, and what that could mean for farmers, companies and investors.Sign up to Climate Confident+ for deep dive analysis of the major climate and energy stories of the day.Support the showPodcast subscribersI'd like to sincerely thank this podcast's amazing subscribers:Anita KrajncCecilia SkarupaBen GrossJerry SweeneyAndreas WernerStephen CarrollRoger ArnoldAnd remember you too can Subscribe to the Podcast  - it is really easy and hugely important as it will enable me to continue to create more excellent Climate Confident episodes like this one, as well as give you access to the entire back catalog of Climate Confident episodes.

What happens to careers in the Salesforce ecosystem when AI starts changing how work gets done? In this episode of Mums on Cloud Nine, we continue our Golden Hoodie series with Keir Bowden, who received his Golden Hoodie at Dreamforce 2024 after nearly two decades of contributing to the Salesforce community. Keir began his career as a Java developer before moving into Salesforce, where answering questions on the original Force.com discussion boards led to blogging, public speaking, community leadership and writing books for fellow Salesforce professionals. From Community Contributor to Golden Hoodie Keir shares how giving back to the community became a major part of his career, from helping people online to supporting developer groups, speaking at Salesforce events and helping new speakers find the confidence to share their own experiences. We also hear how becoming self-employed has given Keir greater freedom to choose the projects, conferences and technical subjects that interest him. What Does AI Mean for Salesforce Careers? Keir offers a thoughtful perspective on the uncertainty surrounding AI and employment. He questions predictions that junior roles will disappear and asks an important question: if companies stop hiring juniors today, where will tomorrow's senior professionals come from? He also explains why governance, compliance, business analysis and human oversight continue to create opportunities for people who understand how Salesforce systems actually work. Working With Agentforce Having worked with the technology that eventually became Agentforce, Keir discusses where he sees genuine value today. From customer service and sentiment analysis to helping admins diagnose Salesforce issues, Keir sees opportunities for AI to save people time. He also explains why handing entire processes to autonomous agents can introduce new problems when organizations lose sight of how decisions are being made. Building Your Confidence in the Salesforce Community Keir finishes with practical advice for anyone considering public speaking. His message is simple: start with community groups, talk about something you know from your own experience and stop assuming everybody in the audience knows more than you. Your story and experience can help somebody else, regardless of where you currently are in your Salesforce career. Mums on Cloud Nine is your go-to destination for inspiring content that empowers women to build a life and career they love.

Nvidia wants to unlock hundreds of billions of dollars for AI infrastructure, but its new compute financing plan raises questions about how far Wall Street can financialize the AI boom.Chuck Zodda and Paul Lane break down Nvidia's memorandums of understanding with major financial firms, why the company is trying to attract more than $500 billion in third-party capital, and how compute-backed financing could turn AI chips and data center capacity into collateral for investors. They also discuss why high expected yields could signal real concerns about the value of that collateral, how quickly compute power can become obsolete, and why Nvidia's CUDA ecosystem may be central to the argument that its chips have staying power. Plus, they look at a deceptive labor market for college graduates and non-grads, why investors are still holding trillions in cash, the risks of prediction markets, Boston's potential office-to-housing conversion, and problems with ticket resale platforms.

Whoopi Goldberg, Keke Palmer, Claressa Shields, Amanda Seales, Tasha K, ChatGPT privacy and the Gorilla Glue Lady?! Yeah… we had a LOT to talk about.

The latest CPI report came in largely as expected, but inflation is still running above the Fed's target and Kevin Warsh may have a difficult case to make if he wants to keep rates unchanged.Chuck Zodda and Paul Lane break down the July inflation report, why lower energy prices helped keep the headline number contained, and why core inflation may still be too elevated for the Fed to ignore. They also discuss how rising gas prices could affect the next CPI report, why markets now see a greater chance that the Fed stays put in September, and whether the economy could handle a modest rate hike. Plus, they look at CoreWeave's revenue surge, the massive financing needs behind the AI data center buildout, Super Micro Computer's latest earnings, and Todd Lutsky's guidance on last-minute Medicaid planning for nursing home costs.
