Artificial intelligence (AI) is already woven into nearly every part of our children's digital lives—from Google searches and school-issued devices to Snapchat, Instagram, voice assistants, and AI chatbots. In this episode, Nicki Petrossi brings in Bark Technologies' Titania Jordan to unpack where kids are accessing AI, the growing risks parents should understand, and how families can navigate this rapidly changing technology.Together, they explore the rise of AI companions like Character.AI and PolyAI, the concerns surrounding tools such as Snapchat's My AI and Meta AI, and the impact AI may have on critical thinking, creativity, emotional development, and real-world relationships. They also discuss how schools are introducing AI into classrooms, what parents should know about AI on school-issued devices, and why children may be particularly vulnerable to misinformation and emotional manipulation from AI systems.Most importantly, Nicki and Titania share practical steps families can take today—from delaying access and setting boundaries to having ongoing conversations that help kids use technology as a tool rather than a replacement for human connection.This isn't a conversation about fear—it's a conversation about preparation. As AI becomes an increasingly permanent part of modern life, parents have an opportunity to help shape how the next generation engages with it safely, thoughtfully, and responsibly.Resources mentioned in the episode:WATCH: ‍The AI DocJoin our email list: scrolling2death.com/heatLearn about Sammy's Law‍‍Get the Bark Phone! Monitor your child's iPhone with the Bark App.Get the Bark Watch!

As an official sales partner for Ray-Ban Meta glasses, Best Buy is rethinking what it means to deliver experiential retail in the age of AI. This week on the Modern Retail Podcast, special projects editor Melissa Daniels sat down with Best Buy's executive vice president and chief revenue officer, Patrick McGinnis, to go behind the scenes into the development of the new 30-by-30-foot Meta AI shop-in-shops rolling out in select stores. It's the latest example of how Best Buy is looking to position itself as a destination for cutting-edge technology — and it's also a case study into how legacy retailers can rethink the store experience for new audiences. Best Buy plans to have 50 stores selling the new Ray-Ban Meta frames by the end of the year, with the hopes of increasing that to as many as 200 or more by the end of next year, McGinnis said. The company knows there's demand for people to check out the specs in person; its own survey data shows that more than 50% of Best Buy customers say they want to see the Meta glasses in person before making a purchase. And since the retailer first launched smaller displays in 100 stores last October, more than 175,000 customers have completed a demo in a Best Buy store. But beyond creating a destination for people to try out cutting-edge tech in person, the shop-in-shop provided an opportunity for Best Buy to revamp its store layout, McGinnis said. It aims to have more flexible space for experiential retail, including for more AI-powered products, on the horizon.

This Day in Legal History: The Senate Rejects Court-PackingOn July 22, 1937, the United States Senate rejected President Franklin D. Roosevelt's plan to reorganize—critics said “pack”—the Supreme Court, voting 70 to 20 to send the bill to a quiet death. It was a stinging defeat for a president at the height of his popularity, delivered by his own party, and it settled a constitutional question that still shapes how we think about the independence of the judiciary.The background was a collision between the New Deal and the Court. Through the mid-1930s, a conservative majority on the Supreme Court had struck down key pieces of Roosevelt's economic program as unconstitutional. Frustrated after his landslide 1936 reelection, FDR proposed legislation that would have let him appoint a new justice for every sitting justice over the age of seventy—which, not coincidentally, would have allowed him to add up to six new justices and swamp the opposition. He framed it as a matter of efficiency and helping overworked elderly judges, but nobody was fooled; it was a naked attempt to change the Court's decisions by changing its membership.The plan backfired, and the reasons are the lesson. Even senators who supported the New Deal recoiled at the precedent—if this president could enlarge the Court to get the rulings he wanted, so could the next one, and the Court's independence would become a fiction. Meanwhile, the Court itself defused the crisis: in the spring of 1937, Justice Owen Roberts began voting to uphold New Deal legislation, the famous “switch in time that saved nine,” which took some of the urgency out of FDR's demand. The significance of July 22, 1937 is that it established a durable, if unwritten, constitutional norm—that the size of the Supreme Court is essentially off-limits as a tool for a president to overpower rulings he dislikes. The number nine isn't in the Constitution, but the bipartisan rebuke of court-packing helped make it feel almost as if it were.An analysis of the closely watched lawsuit by Meta employees over AI-driven layoffs highlights a hard truth: even when workers suspect an algorithm decided their fate, proving it is enormously difficult. To recap, 26 current and former Meta employees sued, alleging the company's internal AI tools flagged them for termination because they have disabilities or took protected medical, parental, or family leave. Their theory is mechanically specific: because tools like the “Metamate” system scored employees partly on data such as keystroke activity, workers who were lawfully out on leave generated fewer data points and were disproportionately ranked as low-value. Meta cut roughly 8,000 people—about ten percent of its workforce—and says humans, not machines, made the decisions. Here's why these cases are so hard to win. Anti-discrimination law generally requires the worker to show the employer's decision was tainted by a protected characteristic, but the employee usually has almost no visibility into how the AI actually worked—the models, the training data, and the weighting are the company's closely held secrets. On top of that, many employees have signed arbitration agreements, funneling their claims out of open court and into a private process that's harder to see into and to appeal. The significance is that this appears to be the first case of its kind against a major U.S. company, and it exposes a growing gap: as employers hand more consequential decisions to opaque algorithms, the legal tools workers have to challenge those decisions—built for an era of human managers—may not be up to the job of proving what the machine did.Analysis: Meta employees' lawsuit shows that if AI fires you, proving it is the hard part | ReutersA split panel of the D.C. Circuit has struck down a long-standing National Labor Relations Board doctrine that protected unions after a business changes hands, ruling that it conflicts with federal labor law. The doctrine at issue is the “successor bar,” and it works like this: when a company is acquired and a new employer takes over, that employer generally cannot challenge or withdraw recognition from the existing union for a reasonable period—about six months—giving the union and workers a window of stability to bargain with their new boss. The court held that this Board-created rule isn't consistent with the National Labor Relations Act. What makes this ruling bigger than one labor doctrine is the tool the court used to get there. The decision applies the Supreme Court's 2024 Loper Bright ruling, which overturned the decades-old Chevron doctrine and ended the requirement that courts defer to a federal agency's reasonable interpretation of an ambiguous statute. Without that deference, the D.C. Circuit felt free to substitute its own reading of the labor law for the NLRB's. This is exactly the dynamic I wrote about in my Bloomberg column last week in the tax context—the death of Chevron doesn't erase statutory ambiguity, it just moves the power to resolve it from agencies to courts. The significance is that we're now watching that shift play out across the administrative state: settled agency doctrines, some decades old, are suddenly vulnerable to being reinterpreted by judges, and here the immediate losers are unions and the workers who counted on a bargaining foothold after a merger.US court says longstanding NLRB rule on post-merger union bargaining is invalid | ReutersA federal judge has temporarily blocked the administration from stripping work authorization from tens of thousands of asylum seekers and immigrants with Temporary Protected Status. U.S. District Judge Nathaniel Gorton in Boston sided with a coalition of immigrant-rights groups and labor unions, halting U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services from moving ahead with a set of policies while he weighs a longer-term pause; he said he'll rule by August 5. Here's the stakes and the legal frame. A work permit—formally, an employment authorization document—is what lets many immigrants lawfully hold a job while their asylum case or protected status is pending. Yanking it doesn't just threaten deportation down the line; it immediately jeopardizes people's livelihoods and their employers' workforces. The contested policies were designed to implement immigration restrictions Congress enacted last year as part of the administration's signature tax-and-spending law, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. The plaintiffs argue USCIS is implementing those provisions in ways that exceed what the law allows and skip required procedures. A temporary block like this one preserves the status quo—keeping people employed—while the court decides whether the government followed the rules. The significance connects to a theme we keep returning to: courts serving as a check on how fast and how far the executive can move in reshaping immigration, insisting that even policies rooted in a real act of Congress still have to be implemented lawfully and with proper process.US judge blocks Trump administration from stripping immigrants of work permits | ReutersAnd finally, in my column for Bloomberg Tax this week, I dig into a self-inflicted mess in California: lawmakers scrambling to rework a business tax-credit cap that they apparently didn't realize would kneecap Hollywood film studios. My core argument is that California is directionally right to resist subsidy bidding wars, but wrong to rewrite the economics of credits it has already issued after companies have started relying on them.Here's what happened. Since 2024, California has capped the total tax reduction a business can take from all its credits at $5 million a year. That cap was set to expire after 2026—right as productions were going to start claiming credits under a newly expanded film incentive the state had just touted as a centerpiece of keeping film jobs in California. Instead, a bill called SB 122 extended the $5 million limit through 2029 and then converts it to the greater of $5 million or 70% of taxes owed. The part that really gets me is the admission underneath it: lawmakers passed a $351.7 billion budget without apparently understanding how this cap would interact with the film credit they'd just enlarged. As one assemblymember candidly put it, “I'm not sure who knew what about what.” It looks like the cap was really aimed at large research-and-development credit stockpiles, and film credits just got caught in the crossfire.My argument is that the distinction between prospective and retroactive matters enormously here. It's one thing for California to decide, going forward, that future subsidies will be smaller or conditioned—that's legitimate fiscal discipline, and I don't think Hollywood should get to dictate tax policy just by threatening to decamp to Georgia. But it's another thing entirely to change the timing and practical value of credits after studios have already committed workers, facilities, and financing in reliance on the old rules. When a state does that, it makes itself a less credible counterparty, and it quietly reduces the value of every future incentive it offers, because businesses will start discounting California's promises for legislative risk. So my prescription is targeted: protect the film credits already awarded under the prior rules, keep a real limit on the big accumulated R&D credits that were the actual target, and replace the blunt across-the-board cap with rules tailored to how these very different credits actually work. California doesn't have to choose between fiscal discipline and keeping its word—its tax policy can be skeptical, but its promises should still mean something.California's Business Tax Credit Cap Needs More Targeted Changes | Bloomberg Tax This is a public episode.

On this episode of PT Breakfast Club, Jimmy McKay, Tony Maritato, and Dave Kittle unpack one of the profession's loudest conversations: burnout.But instead of stopping at “PTs are burned out,” they push into the more useful question: what are clinicians actually asking for when they say they want fewer patients?More time? A buffer between visits? Better systems? Less emotional carryover? A job that matches the version of the profession they thought they were entering?The crew also asks the dangerous dinner-party question: would you become a PT again? Tony and Dave both say yes, but with caveats. They'd understand market forces sooner, think differently about ownership, and build earlier.In the second half, the conversation pivots to social media, AI, and clinic growth. Tony shares how he's using Meta AI, ChatGPT, and Gemini to analyze what is actually working across his content. Dave explains how TikTok is already creating real patient conversations for Concierge Pain Relief. Jimmy ties it together with a lesson from his talk to PT students in Colorado:Attention leads to trust. Trust leads to action.And the big takeaway for clinics?Stop trying to create “social media.”Create media that is social.Big IdeasBurnout needs a clearer definition before PT can solve it.“Fewer patients” may actually mean more time, recovery, documentation space, or emotional reset.Better pay might help, but it does not automatically fix workplace dissatisfaction.PT students are still fired up about the profession, and that matters.Future clinicians need to understand market forces, not just anatomy and interventions.Social media is not just marketing fluff. It is attention, trust, and patient behavior.Clinics should stop overproducing and start documenting real moments.AI can help clinicians and clinic owners understand what their audience is telling them.The FITT-VP principle works for exercise, communication, business, and content.Best Line“Don't try to create social media. Try to create media that is social.”

There are significant privacy and censorship concerns involving Meta and other major technology firms. One source describes a guerrilla marketing campaign in London, where activists replaced bus stop advertisements with satirical posters to protest the surveillance capabilities of smart glasses. These fake ads criticize the hardware's ability to record data without consent, comparing the technology to dystopian fiction. Simultaneously, a report from the Meta-funded Oversight Board reveals that leading AI models frequently refuse to generate content critical of repressive governments. This investigation suggests that artificial intelligence may be unintentionally reinforcing authoritarian speech restrictions through inconsistent moderation policies. Together, these sources underscore a growing tension between technological advancement and the protection of individual rights and free expression.

Sorg also begins downloading the iOS 27 public beta during the show, despite Katie's warnings and a few concerns being saved for the Patreon aftertalk. Stories and Gadgets Discussed A wireless microphone saves the podcast: When Dave's regular microphone setup breaks, he switches to a compact dual wireless microphone system that connects through USB-C. The plug-and-play backup works with phones and laptops without a complicated setup. Omron 7 Series Bluetooth blood pressure monitor: Dave reviews a new connected blood pressure monitor after getting inconsistent readings from an older device. He highlights its larger arm cuff, support for two users, storage for multiple readings, three-reading averages, Apple Health integration and the ability to export results for a doctor. https://amzn.to/4yncwxY Pinwheel phones, watches and home phones for kids: Katie introduces Pinwheel's managed technology ecosystem for children and teenagers. Parents and caregivers can control approved contacts, monitor texts, restrict social media, set bedtime schedules, review locations and gradually unlock features as a child gets older.

Les iPhone, Apple Watch et AirPods restent pour l'instant épargnés.Meta lance ses propres lunettes connectéesNous découvrons les nouvelles Meta Glasses, commercialisées à partir de 299 dollars et dotées d'une caméra, de microphones, de haut-parleurs et de l'assistant Meta AI propulsé par Muse Spark. Cette gamme, vendue sous la marque Meta, vise à élargir l'accès aux lunettes intelligentes sans intégrer l'écran des modèles Ray-Ban Display.Lunettes intelligentes et vie privéeNous débattons de l'acceptabilité sociale de lunettes capables de filmer à tout moment, même lorsqu'un voyant signale l'enregistrement. Ces appareils installent une suspicion permanente autour de leur porteur et reposent encore largement sur le consentement, le civisme et l'apprentissage collectif des nouveaux usages.L'euro numérique franchit une étape politiqueNous expliquons le projet d'euro numérique de la Banque centrale européenne, conçu comme une forme électronique de monnaie publique utilisable en ligne et hors ligne. L'objectif est de renforcer la souveraineté européenne face aux réseaux de paiement américains, tout en préservant la confidentialité des transactions et l'accès aux espèces. La commission des affaires économiques et monétaires du Parlement européen a adopté sa position le 23 juin 2026; un pilote de douze mois est prévu au second semestre 2027 et une éventuelle mise en circulation en 2029.L'IA provoque un scandale dans la presse allemandeNous revenons sur le retrait d'articles publiés par de grands journaux allemands après la découverte d'un recours important à l'intelligence artificielle. L'affaire concerne notamment l'ancien dirigeant du Tagesspiegel Stephan-Andreas Casdorff ainsi que des textes associés à des responsables politiques, et relance le débat sur la transparence, la responsabilité de l'auteur et les limites des détecteurs d'IA.L'Europe prépare l'étiquetage des contenus générés par IANous évoquons l'entrée en application, en août 2026, d'obligations de transparence issues de l'AI Act pour certains contenus synthétiques, notamment les deepfakes, les textes d'intérêt public et les interactions avec des agents conversationnels. Ces marquages devront être visibles pour le public et interprétables par les machines, même s'ils resteront faciles à contourner dans le cadre d'usages malveillants.Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Burden Today or a Moat for Tomorrow.On the Avory Around the Desk podcast, Sean Emory of Avory & Company discusses why Meta may be misunderstood despite being the cheapest of the Mag 7, the second-fastest grower behind Nvidia, and having the highest gross margins in the group. He frames the key debate around whether Meta's aggressive AI and infrastructure CapEx is a near-term free cash flow burden or a long-term competitive moat, arguing AI is directly strengthening Meta's core ad business through better recommendations, engagement, and advertiser ROI. Sean highlights Zuckerberg's capital-allocation track record, Meta's distribution advantage across 3.56B users, and under-monetized assets like WhatsApp, Threads, and Meta AI. He outlines what to watch next, including signals of CapEx plateauing, revenue momentum, monetization progress, and risks such as a potential equity raise.00:00 Meta Debate Setup02:19 Six Questions Roadmap03:11 Quick Disclaimer03:41 Dont Bet Against Zuck05:38 What Market Misses10:00 Why Track Record Matters14:03 Distribution Flywheel16:54 CapEx Burden Or Moat22:53 Free Cash Flow Path24:36 What Were Watching27:12 Valuation Discipline28:01 Wrap Up And Next StepsHosted bySean EmoryFounder & Chief Investment OfficerAvory & Co.Websitewww.avory.xyzDisclaimerThis presentation is for informational purposes only and does not constitute an offer, recommendation, or solicitation to buy or sell any security.

The UFC lightweight division just got even more interesting after newly crowned champion Justin Gaethje made it clear that he doesn't believe Ilia Topuria deserves an immediate rematch following their historic battle at the UFC White House card. Gaethje recently doubled down on his position, saying Topuria needs to earn another title shot before getting a second crack at the belt. On this episode of Weighing In, Josh Thomson & John Morgan break down the future of the lightweight division, whether Topuria should get an immediate rematch, and who deserves the next shot at Gaethje. We also discuss the UFC's brand-new Meta rankings system. The new rankings are generated using an Elo-based mathematical model developed with Meta and have already sparked major debate among fans and fighters due to some surprising placements throughout the rankings. Are the new rankings better than the old media-voted system? Has the UFC improved the process, or have they created a whole new controversy? Join the conversation and let us know your thoughts in the comments!

Breaking news, Mainiacs! Right before we started recording this episode, the UFC announced that its new artificial intelligence fighter rankings — developed in conjunction with Zuck and the smart kids at Meta — are out! Finally, the pesky whims of humanity will no longer hamper the UFC's ability to rank fighters in each weight class from 1-15. Now, a computer will use “statistical modeling and machine learning with the deep domain expertise of the UFC” to tell us who's hot and who's not. It will evaluate “a comprehensive set of objective metrics, including outcome probability, win type, fighter trajectory, and weight-class sensitivities.” So, thank God that's crystal clear and fixed forever. Plus, we got mail about Conor McGregor's return! And the UFC didn't exactly get those Super Bowl numbers they were hoping for at the White House. Learn more about your ad choices.
