    752: Grandma Got Run Over By a Tesla

    This week, the AI industry continues its speedrun toward becoming the tech equivalent of a late-stage casino. Elon Musk insists reports of aid-cut-related deaths don't exist despite mountains of evidence, SpaceX stock slides far enough to knock him out of the trillionaire club, and a startup is literally suing the U.S. government because Anthropic's Fable 5 model got turned off after three whole days of availability. Once again, we revisit the First Commandment of Grumpy Old Geeks: never build your company on someone else's platform.Meanwhile, gas stations are being accused of using AI to coordinate prices, corporations are discovering that AI tokens cost actual money, and a Microsoft researcher used goats in Age of Empires II to demonstrate that maybe, just maybe, people are projecting way too much intelligence onto chatbots. The goats emerge with their reputations intact. The AI industry, less so.The workforce bloodbath rolls on as Oracle quietly sheds 21,000 employees while blaming AI, Norway bans generative AI for elementary school students after discovering that children should probably learn to read before outsourcing their homework to robots, and the FCC flirts with rules that could effectively kill anonymous burner phones in the name of fighting scams. Over at Meta, an employee surveillance program accidentally exposed sensitive data to the entire company because of course it did, while Zuckerberg continues his relentless quest to strap cameras to everyone's face and call it progress. Add in YouTube settling another social-media-harm case, Chrome finally kneecapping traditional ad blockers, and prediction markets spreading across tech like mold in a college apartment, and it's becoming increasingly clear that every bad idea eventually gets funded.In transportation news, autonomous vehicles continue demonstrating that "mostly works" is not a reassuring phrase when attached to two tons of moving metal. A Tesla on Autopilot crashes into a home and kills a grandmother, Rivian faces lawsuits over self-driving promises its hardware allegedly can't fulfill, and Waymo recalls thousands of robotaxis after they developed an unfortunate habit of driving into closed freeway construction zones. Elsewhere, Elon and Bezos are eyeing billions in broadband subsidies, Polymarket is accused of paying influencers to fake betting videos and climate data archivists are preserving public information from political interference.Media recommendations include The Mandalorian, Silo, Strange New Worlds, Dungeon Crawler Carl, and a reminder that Firefox may soon be the last refuge for people who enjoy both the internet and ad blockers. Some weeks the future feels exciting. This week it mostly feels like an extended warranty scam.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

    Using A “Rebel Alliance” Strategy To Elevate AI & VR Learning ft. ILMxLab's Vicki Dobbs Beck

    Vicki Dobbs Beck, the former head of ILMxLab and a 34-year veteran of Lucasfilm/Disney, joins Charlie Fink, Ted Schilowitz, and Rony Abovitz for a candid look back at her incredible career navigating the tech and cultural shifts inside one of Hollywood's most powerful empires. Though she announced her retirement, it was quickly delayed to take an interim lead position at the George Lucas Educational Foundation's Lucas Learning, focusing on project-based simulations for middle school—a return to a career passion she started in the early 90s.Vicki shares the core, "rebel alliance" strategy that made ILMxLab a success—sustained innovation, industry acknowledgment, and financial self-sufficiency—and tells the terrifying story of pushing the Quest 1 headset to its absolute limits for the launch of Vader Immortal. She discusses the crucial lessons learned from pivoting the development to center the player in the story, transforming the experience from a "spatial film" to a personal journey, and the importance of slowing the pacing down for a new art form like VR.Before the interview, the hosts dissect a week of massive raises in AI (World Labs' $1B, Recursive Intelligence's $335M), the strategic shifts of tech giants like Palantir to Miami, and the intensifying race in wearables with Apple, Meta, and OpenAI all developing new devices like pendants and glasses.Key Moments00:03:17 – World Labs & Unity AI: Discussing the $1B World Labs raise for 3D world generation and Unity's plans to build AI into its game engine to make it accessible to non-developers.00:06:11 – The Miami Tech Hub: Rony Abovitz on why founders like Zuckerberg, Bezos, Larry, and Sergei are moving to Miami—it's more than just taxes, it's about a new “America strategy.”00:12:30 – Apple Watch as Wearables Base: Ted Schilowitz argues Apple already has the micro-technology (from the Apple Watch) to dominate the wearables space, but the underperformance of Siri held them back.00:27:00 – LaserDisc Learning: Vicki's early career in Lucasfilm Learning using cutting-edge but bulky computer-driven laser disc players for educational multimedia.00:28:57 – VR is 'Outsized': Ted's thesis that immersive technology has historically been overfunded and over-expected to return a profit, contrasting with the "rebel alliance" approach.00:34:45 – The Quest 1 Launch Scare: The terrifying moment before the Vader Immortal launch when a tiny software update broke the app because ILMxLab had pushed the Quest hardware to its absolute maximum.00:42:11 – The Void & Full VR Power: Charlie, Ted, and Vicki discuss why location-based VR like Star Wars: Secrets of the Empire (The Void) represents the exotic, "Ferrari version" of VR that most commercial users never experience.This conversation is a masterclass in pioneering entertainment technology. Vicki Dobbs Beck's experience shows that the path to a sustainable, breakthrough product like Vader Immortal requires a clear, rebel-alliance-style strategy, a willingness to pivot on core design principles (spatial film vs. player-centric experience), and a deep understanding of the hardware's limits—or lack thereof. It highlights the essential tension between commercial scale and the pursuit of the 'ultimate' immersive experience.Catch the AI XR Podcast where you get podcasts and watch full video episodes on YouTube. https://youtu.be/vguuHDmaSbsThis episode of The AI XR Podcast is brought to you by Zappar, the folks behind Mattercraft.

    Shelley Palmer,media technologist, advisor, and author with over 700,000 daily newsletter subscribers, returns to the show. He's one of the sharpest thinkers writing about AI today, and this conversation covers the full arc: from social media liability to the trust collapse coming for all of us, and into the real productivity gains and surveillance trade-offs of living inside an AI-first workflow.The episode opens with the Google and Meta lawsuit verdict and quickly moves past the legal question. Shelley's position is precise: you can't legislate parenting, but you can legislate transparency, and the tech industry has failed on that front entirely. The $6 million judgment against Meta and Google is a rounding error — not a deterrent. What matters is what platforms actually engineered: engagement above all else, backed by neuroscience, probabilistic math, and dopamine feedback loops optimized for shareholders, not users.AI XR News You Should Know: OpenAI is ending Sora and pivoting hard to Codex and enterprise.

No matter what good it does, it does more harm."[00:18:16] – Rony on dopamine engineering: neuroscientists studying pixel size, color, sound to refine addiction[00:19:40] – Shelley reframes it: engagement maximization for shareholders, no more insidious than that[00:23:19] – The physiological change argument: humans evolved to default to trust; AI-generated everything breaks that[00:31:50] – Rony's counterpoint: trust will reset local; the software ecosystem will follow[00:36:53] – Shelley: "Our business increased last year. Everyone on my staff is doing 400 times the work."[00:44:42] – AI-first means automating every workflow you can honestly automate — and knowing what isn't ready[00:45:06] – Jensen's Nemo Claw and Open Shell: the safer path to personal AI agents, and what it actually costs[00:49:42] – The surveillance trade-off: an effective AI agent requires more personal data exposure than anything before it[00:51:24] – Apple's Secure Enclave play: why Tim Cook may win the AI trust war in the endThe productivity gains are real, but so is the privacy exposure, and the systems that earn trust — at every level — are the ones that will survive.This episode is brought to you by Zappar, the company behind Mattercraft — the leading visual development environment for building immersive 3D web experiences across mobile, headsets, and desktop.

    En weer moet ASML dealen met de Amerikaanse regering. Dit keer is het handelsminister Howard Lutnick die de directie op het matje roept. Volgens hem zouden de nieuwste machines van ASML naar China gaan, ondanks het exportverbod. Persbureau Bloomberg sprak met mensen uit de Amerikaanse regering. Die zeggen bewijs te hebben, zonder bewijs te overleggen. ASML ontkent en zegt dat ze helemaal geen nieuwste machines leveren. Hoe dan ook: het is wéér gedoe dat ASML op zijn bordje krijgt. Hoe moet het bedrijf hier nu weer mee omgaan? We kijken er deze aflevering na. Ook wat dit met je ASML-aandeel doet. Hebben we het ook over het nieuws Prosus. Dat krijgt steeds meer vorm, blijkt uit de nieuwe trading update. Maar wanneer kennen beleggers ook die hogere beurswaarde toe aan het bedrijf? Verder gaat het over SpaceX. Dat ging als een raket op de beurs, maar de motor begon te haperen. De koers van het aandeel ging naar beneden. Ondertussen probeert het bedrijf nog even 20 miljard op te halen bij investeerders, nadat het afgelopen week al ruim 80(!) miljard ophaalde. Gaat het ze lukken? Ook kijken we naar de falende robotaxi's van Aplhabet, mogelijke claims tegen Meta en we bespreken de deal tussen Iran en de VS. Is die deal nu alweer mislukt?

In this episode of DarrenDaily On-Demand, Darren Hardy reveals that many of the most successful leaders in the world, including Steve Jobs, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, and Jim Rohn, are naturally introverted. The difference between those who light up a room and those who don't often comes down to one small move. Darren also shares what changed for him after testing this approach all day for several days, and why the people who seem most unapproachable are often the most relieved when you make the first move.

    Welcome to Multiverse News, your source for information about all your favorite fictional universes.While it may come as no surprise, the biggest Marvel news this week is still just as exciting as it is obvious with the revelation that Chris Evans will indeed appear in Secret Wars. While not officially confirmed by Marvel, the news broke via a social media post from March 26, that is just now gaining notice, with the actor himself telling Instagram user @comicconmomsi, "I can tell you that...I start work on the next one in a couple of months, I can tell you that," in a video message. That tracks with the projected August production starting date for Secret Wars we've discussed previously.While rumors and speculation are typically not our forte here, the rumor mill surrounding The Batman II cast warrants some attention. In May, we discussed headlines from sources like Variety and The Wrap that seemingly confirmed Sebastian Stan had been cast as Harvey Dent, as he had long been rumored to be, with Scarlett Johansson and Charles Dance announced as Dent's wife and father, respectively. In hindsight, those headlines resulted from Matt Reeve's social media post where he confirmed and welcomed a number of actors as part of the film but did not actually reveal any roles. In the last week, industry insider Jeff Sneider has suggested that his sources claim that Stan will instead play Victor Zsasz and Brian Tyree Henry is set to portray Harvey. Steven Spielberg has returned to the blockbuster arena for the first time in eight years with Disclosure Day, his UFO sci-fi thriller starring Emily Blunt and Josh O'Connor, which opened to approximately $44 million domestically and $93.9 million globally, making it his biggest opening weekend ever for an original film. Meanwhile, Obsession continues its extraordinary run, adding another $19 million in week five for a domestic total of $188.3 million. Spielberg's $115 million production earned strong reviews and a B CinemaScore.Sony has released the trailer for The Social Reckoning, Aaron Sorkin's sequel to The Social Network. Jeremy Strong stars as Mark Zuckerberg alongside Mikey Madison, Jeremy Allen White, and Bill Burr. The film opens October 9.Peter Sarsgaard has joined the Season 3 cast of HBO's The Last of Us in a recurring role. He will play an original character named Amon, one of the leaders of the Seraphites. Production is currently on a planned hiatus to accommodate World Cup matches filming in Vancouver.It: Welcome to Derry writer Jason Fuchs has been tapped to write a new untitled Transformers script for Paramount and Hasbro.Channing Tatum, Jonah Hill, and Ice Cube are in talks to return for 24 Jump Street at Sony Pictures, reuniting most of the original production team.Apple TV+ has renewed horror comedy Widow's Bay for a second season ahead of its season finale this week, and has signed creator Katie Dippold to a multiyear overall deal.Jason Momoa has made clear he has no interest in a PG-13 Lobo solo movie. In an interview with Collider, he said if he makes a standalone Lobo film, it will be rated R, full stop, though he's open to appearing in ensemble DCU projects in the meantime.Peter Serafinowicz has been cast as Peeves the Poltergeist in HBO's Harry Potter series.Anya Taylor-Joy has joined the cast of the upcoming Lord of the Rings prequel The Hunt for Gollum, playing an elf character named Seren.Marvel Comics will publish a one-shot crossover this September titled The Muppets Take the Marvel Universe, celebrating the 50th anniversary of The Muppet Show by teaming Muppets characters with iconic Marvel heroes.Mark Hamill is joining Peacock's Twisted Metal for Season 3 in a recurring role, playing the father of Sweet Tooth.Chris Sanders, co-creator and co-director of the original Lilo & Stitch animated film, will direct Disney's live-action sequel Lilo & Stitch 2.

    THIS IS A PREVIEW. FOR THE FULL EPISODE, GO TO Patreon.com/worstofall Mark Zuckerberg spent seven years and $80 billion attempting to build Horizon Worlds, a virtual reality "metaverse" that peaked at around 200,000 monthly users in October 2022. After years of decay, Horizon froze the creation of new worlds in VR this week, shifting the platform's focus back to mobile and marking the effective end of Meta's virtual reality ambitions. This week, the lads perform an autopsy on both Horizon Worlds and Mark Zuckerberg's dream of the metaverse more broadly, discovering how a platform built on the vision of a revolutionary gaming headset eventually gave way to a world solely inhabited by dozens of eight-year-olds screaming slurs in 360 degrees of immersive 3D.

    Na vele dagen aan bombardementen en escalatie zijn de VS en Iran het eens over een voorlopig vredesakkoord. Een plan dat bestaat uit veertien punten, waarvan de opening van de Straat van Hormuz de belangrijkste is. Een ander punt valt ook op: een fonds van 300 miljard dollar voor de wederopbouw van Iran. Deze aflevering kijken we wat deze deal nu precies voor jou als belegger betekent. Hebben we het ook over het nieuwe dreigement van president Trump. De deal moet nog ondertekend worden, maar hij waarschuwt de Iraniërs nu al. 'Als ik het er toch niet mee eens ben, of als ze zich niet gedragen, gaan we weer op ze schieten en bommen op hun hoofd gooien.' Of die oorlog in Iran nu eindigt of niet, één sector is al slachtoffer. De autosector. De koersen van autobouwers tuimelen omlaag. Allemaal na een winstwaarschuwing van BMW. De Duitse bouwer verwacht een lagere operationele winstmarge dit jaar. Tussen de 1 en 3 procent. Terwijl die verwachting eerder nog op 6 procent lag. Dat moet beter, zegt Noud Broekhof van de Nationale Autoshow. Je hoort hem deze aflevering.

    Trump's UFC White House stunt was quite the spectacle. President Trump's birthday party/UFC fight event on the White House lawn brought out the bros, from Meta's Mark Zuckerberg, Kris Marszalek, CEO of Crypto.com and David Ellison, the CEO of Paramount Skydance to Pete Hegseth and Kash Patel. Was the event intended to rescue a “macho” image for a president that seems to be getting weaker  and sleepier by the day? A president made to look even weaker by not being able to steamroll Iran as he planned?  Mark will discuss. The conversation continues with author and scholar Sarah Kendzior.

    C dans l'air du 15 juin 2026 - Trump : un anniversaire... et un accord de paix !Les États-Unis et l'Iran ont annoncé dimanche 14 juin avoir trouvé le cadre d'un accord pour mettre fin à la guerre sur tous les fronts au Moyen-Orient, avec une cérémonie de signature prévue vendredi prochain à Genève, avant des pourparlers de 60 jours plus précis et techniques sur les sujets qui fâchent.Pour le moment, le document sur lequel se sont entendus Washington et Téhéran n'a pas été rendu public. Donald Trump a néanmoins promis sur son réseau Truth Social la réouverture du détroit d'Ormuz dès vendredi.« J'autorise pleinement la réouverture du détroit d'Ormuz sans droits de passage et, parallèlement, la levée immédiate du blocus naval américain. Navires du monde entier, mettez vos moteurs en marche ! Que le pétrole coule à flots ! », a écrit le président des États-Unis, ajoutant que cette ouverture interviendra « dès la signature de l'accord vendredi afin de permettre le déminage ».En fin de matinée, ce lundi, l'agence iranienne Fars a néanmoins indiqué que l'Iran a ajouté au dernier moment des négociations une clause prévoyant l'imposition de redevances pour les services maritimes dans le détroit d'Ormuz.Alors, que contient cet accord-cadre ? Ce passage stratégique, par où transite d'ordinaire un cinquième du pétrole brut mondial, va-t-il réellement rouvrir ? Dans quelles conditions ? Y aura-t-il un péage ?Si les conditions précises de ce protocole d'accord ne sont pas encore connues, l'éventualité d'une possible reprise du transit dans le détroit a entraîné une chute des cours de l'or noir et une avalanche de réactions. La vice-présidente de la Commission européenne et haute représentante de l'Union européenne pour les Affaires étrangères, Kaja Kallas, a salué prudemment une « avancée potentielle ».Depuis Évian-les-Bains, où s'ouvre ce lundi le sommet du G7, Emmanuel Macron a de son côté affirmé « qu'il faut tout faire pour mettre en œuvre cet accord ». La mission maritime internationale mise en place par la France et le Royaume-Uni est « prête à accompagner » sa réouverture. Si cela se confirme, le Charles-de-Gaulle ne mettrait que « deux ou trois jours » à se rendre à Ormuz, a assuré le président.Le président de la République a aussi dit vouloir « une discussion respectueuse mais ferme » avec Donald Trump, qui, ces dernières heures, a de nouveau menacé d'imposer des droits de douane de 100 % sur le vin français si Paris ne supprime pas sa taxe sur les services numériques.Parallèlement, l'administration américaine a décidé d'interdire l'utilisation des deux modèles d'IA les plus récents d'Anthropic à « tout ressortissant étranger », provoquant un coup de tonnerre sur les deux rives de l'Atlantique.Le chef de l'État va s'entretenir avec son homologue américain ce lundi. Un président des États-Unis qui devrait apparaître revigoré par cet accord avec l'Iran, annoncé au soir de sa fête d'anniversaire.Pour ses 80 ans, Donald Trump a transformé dimanche la pelouse de la Maison Blanche en arène pour des athlètes de MMA. Le spectacle s'est déroulé devant 4 000 invités triés sur le volet, installés autour de la cage, dont l'incontournable Mark Zuckerberg, PDG de Meta, ou David Ellison, patron de Paramount.Quelque 100 000 spectateurs s'étaient par ailleurs massés dans un parc adjacent pour suivre les combats sur écran géant et écouter les hommages au président rendus par certains vainqueurs, gladiateurs des temps modernes.

Diese Muster wirken wie Self-Promotion oder AI-Washing, nicht wie faktenbasierte Argumente. Hypothese: Solche Templates könnten sich künftig weiter verbreiten und Narrative rund um AI stärker dominieren.AI-Kosten im Blick behaltenAus dem Transkript geht hervor, dass Unternehmen AI-Kosten stark belasten: Uber meldet Budgets, die für agentic und autonome AI verbrannt wurden; Berichte über Kosten-Rationierung bei großen Firmen kursieren auch im Umfeld. Zugleich fallen Tokenpreise, doch die Gesamtkosten steigen durch komplexe Workflows und viele Sub-Agents. Implikation für Unternehmen: Einführung einer Kosten-Governance, klare Budgetgrenzen und eine kohärente Planungslogik statt unkontrollierter Skalierung.80/20-Compliance-SoftwareFirewall-Idee: 80 Prozent der Standards lassen sich als Software-Selbstprüfung abdecken, 20 Prozent erfordern weiterhin Prüfer vor Ort. Begründung ist der akute Personalmangel bei Behörden, wodurch eine Software-basierten Erstprüfung sinnvoll wäre. Umsetzung braucht Zertifizierung der Software und Klärung mit Versicherungen; der Ansatz zielt darauf, Prozesse zu beschleunigen und Abdeckung zu erhöhen.Fokus statt MultitaskEine klare Denkregel aus dem Gespräch lautet: Fang mit einer Sache an und verbessere diese zuerst, statt drei neue Dinge gleichzeitig anzugehen. Dadurch reduziert sich Komplexität und das Risiko eines overengineered Modells. Implikation für Unternehmen/Karriere: Setze frühzeitig auf eine fokussierte Verbesserung, um schneller Validierung zu erreichen und Ressourcen sinnvoll zu nutzen.Multi-Model Orchestration als TrendEs wird ein Trend sichtbar, bei dem Modelle je nach Aufgabe gezielt ausgewählt werden: Perplexity Computer soll Aufgaben erledigen, indem es passende Modelle (z. B. Gemini, Claude) orchestriert. Apple nutzt Gemini intern, und unterschiedliche Modelle eignen sich für unterschiedliche Subtasks. Bedeutung: Solche Orchestrierung kann Kosten senken und Leistungsfähigkeit erhöhen; Unternehmen sollten über Multi-Model-Strategien nachdenken.KeywordsAI-KostenAI-EntlassungenApple GeminiSiriTokenpreiseAI-Kosten 2026 UnternehmenApple Gemini Siri Privatsphäre ForkPerplexity Computer AI OptimierungFirewall Brandschutz Software SchweizQuickfire OnlyFans Creator MonetisierungSubagents AI ArchitekturArbeitnehmerüberlassung Modernisierung HandwerkArbeitgebermarke Handwerk

    4 de febrero de 2004. En un dormitorio de Harvard, un estudiante llamado Mark Zuckerberg lanza una pequeña red social para universitarios. Ese mismo año, a miles de kilómetros, el Pentágono cierra discretamente un proyecto llamado LifeLog: una plataforma diseñada para registrar absolutamente todo lo que una persona hacía, decía, leía o pensaba en su vida digital. ¿Casualidad? En este episodio de Días Extraños tiramos del hilo de una de las teorías más inquietantes sobre el origen de Facebook: la idea de que la mayor red social de la historia no nació en una habitación de estudiantes, sino en los despachos de DARPA. Hablaremos de la carta apócrifa atribuida a una antigua pareja de Zuckerberg, de la demanda de los gemelos Winklevoss, del enigma de la escalabilidad resuelta en dos semanas y del código que Leader Technologies tardó dos años en escribir. ¿Coincidencias? ¿Indicios? ¿Una conspiración con todas las letras?

    The Rizzuto Show accidentally becomes the FBI of lunch when Rafe embarks on a highly scientific sandwich reconnaissance mission that quickly spirals into one of the greatest culinary betrayals of modern history.After yesterday's LeGrand's sandwich feast, questions remained. Important questions. Questions like: Who ate the last sandwich? Why did Rafe immediately end up at Penn Station? And most importantly, why was every sandwich somehow loaded with onions despite specifically trying to avoid onions?This episode begins with a completely normal discussion about Letterkenny Live coming to town before veering directly into a full-blown sandwich investigation. Rafe reports back from his undercover visit to Penn Station, where he encountered slippery floors, mysterious customers, questionable air conditioning, suspicious fries, and enough onions to launch an international incident. Moon defends his beloved Penn Station while everyone else attempts to determine whether the establishment is a restaurant, a social experiment, or a front for something far stranger.As the evidence piles up, the crew debates bread quality, sandwich chain rankings, air fryers, and whether Jimmy John's bread should be classified as food, flotation device, or building material.Then it's time for Crap on Celebrities, featuring Green Day's upcoming movie New Year's Rev, Christopher Nolan movie rankings, the ongoing Beckham family feud, Home Improvement reboot rumors, and a look at the upcoming Social Network sequel starring Jeremy Strong as Mark Zuckerberg.The chaos continues when the gang dives into a debate over the greatest TV and movie vehicles of the 1980s. The General Lee, Ecto-1, KITT, the Family Truckster, Christine, Ferris Bueller's Ferrari, and more all enter the conversation as Moon somehow finds a way to turn the segment into a masterclass on obscure movie cars nobody else remembers.Along the way you'll also hear:Letterkenny Live excitementBret Michaels coming to townThe world's saddest Penn Station dining roomThe mystery of the fake-bearded customerWhy fries belong in cupsChristopher Nolan argumentsProperty Brothers confusionDavid Beckham's Hollywood honorThe Skarsgård family group chatWeirdly passionate bread discussionsClassic movie car nostalgiaAnd enough sarcasm to power an entire cityIf you're looking for a daily comedy show packed with ridiculous stories, pop culture commentary, food reviews gone wrong, celebrity gossip, and absolutely unnecessary debates about sandwich bread, you've come to the right place.This daily comedy show proves once again that no topic is too small to become a full-blown argument. Whether it's onions, movies, family feuds, or fictional vehicles, the crew somehow finds a way to make everything significantly more complicated.Thanks for making The Rizzuto Show part of your routine.

    Biohub started with an ambitious goal of curing, preventing, and managing all disease by the end of the century. A decade later, thanks to the convergence of frontier AI and biological data, that goal may have been too conservative. In this episode, Elad Gil and Sarah Guo sit down with Biohub co-founders Mark Zuckerberg and Priscilla Chan, alongside Biohub Head of Science Alex Rives. Together, they discuss Biohub's $500 million virtual biology initiative, which integrates frontier AI with wet-lab work to build predictive world models of cells, proteins, and systems. They also talk about their newly announced open-source engine for digital protein and antibody design, ESMFold2; why Biohub is a nonprofit rather than a venture-backed startup; and how hierarchical simulations will soon allow doctors to treat patients at an individual, mechanistic level.   Sign up for new podcasts every week.
