What happens when AI agents — not humans — become your primary customer? That's not a hypothetical. It's already happening, and the founders who recognize it earliest are rebuilding their entire infrastructure stacks from scratch. In this live episode of Founded & Funded from our IA Summit in Seattle, Madrona Venture Partner Jon Turow sits down with Parag Agrawal, former CEO of Twitter and founder of Parallel Web Systems, and Nikita Shamgunov, who led Neon through a rapid AI pivot before its acquisition by Databricks. What they cover: Why Parag is building a new search index from the ground up — and why existing ones weren't designed for AI agents The moment Nikita realized Replit agents were spinning up databases 4x faster than all human developers combined — and what that forced him to do How to pivot an established company in weeks, not months, when your customer base suddenly changes The "pagers vs. iPhones" framework for knowing when to lean into disruption vs. protect what you have Parag's two-person hiring rubric for teams operating in deep uncertainty Why Nikita added the head of product for ChatGPT to Neon's board — and what that signaled to the market The "two-way door" model for giving agents real autonomy without catastrophic downside Whether you're building infrastructure, running an AI-native startup, or trying to figure out where your product fits in an agent-first world — this conversation will sharpen your thinking.

How AI interacts with nuclear deterrence may be the single most important question in geopolitics — one that may define the stakes of today's AI race. Nuclear deterrence rests on a state's capacity to respond to a nuclear attack with a devastating nuclear strike of its own. But some theorists think that sophisticated AI could eliminate this capability — for example, by locating and destroying all of an adversary's nuclear weapons simultaneously, by disabling command-and-control networks, or by enhancing missile defence systems. If they are right, whichever country got those capabilities first could wield unprecedented coercive power.Today's guests — Nikita Lalwani and Sam Winter-Levy of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace — assess how advances in AI might threaten nuclear deterrence:Would AI be able to locate nuclear submarines hiding in a vast, opaque ocean?Would road-mobile launchers still be able to hide in tunnels and under netting?Would missile defence become so accurate that the United States could be protected under something like Israel's Iron Dome?Can we imagine an AI cybersecurity breakthrough that would allow countries to infiltrate their rivals' nuclear command-and-control networks?Yet even without undermining deterrence, Sam and Nikita claim that AI could make the nuclear world far more dangerous. It could spur arms races, encourage riskier postures, and force dangerously short response times. Their message is urgent: AI experts and nuclear experts need to start talking to each other now, before the technology makes any conversation moot.Links to learn more, video, and full transcript: https://80k.info/swlnlThis episode was recorded on November 24, 2025.Chapters:Cold open (00:00:00)Who are Nikita Lalwani and Sam Winter-Levy?

Interview de notre guest ! Notre voyage commence en 96 où Nikita laisse le violon et le piano pour des platines sans oublier le fondement de sa formation classique. Adepte de la techno qui tourne et qui retourne, elle performe aussi bien dans les champs clandestins avec un système sons qui déracine les mauvaises herbes que les plus grands dancefloors français comme le Rex Club à Paris. En soit, pour plaire à Nikita, il suffit de deux choses : un public qui est là pour le son et du bon son. Et si à cela s'ajoute un plateau digne des restaurants gastronomique en termes de line up, la boucle est bouclée. C'est le cas avec ceux qui comptent parmi les plus grands noms de la scène qu'elle a partagé : Manu le Malin, Miss Kittin, Le Bask, Sam Paganini, Sama Abdulhadi et j'en passe. Un peu plus de 20 ans après, la passion du mix continue avec une nouvelle corde à son arc qui titille tout amoureux de la musique : la production. Merci Trackwasher et Al Core qu'on salue, ces compères qui lui donnent l'élan. Parmi ses propres tracks, on retrouve sur son soundcloud “Red Alert” ou “Chicago”, et pléthore de mixs distillés aux 4 vents et pour toutes oreilles qui voudraient se faire titiller le tympan. Du classique au champs de rave, d'une vibration personnelle à l'adhésion de collectifs tels que Impulse Events, Artists In Action créé par Jeff 23 des Spiral Tribe, de la platine des années 90 à la continuité d'un chemin toujours orienté dancefloors, Nikita est une artiste entière, profondément ancrée dans son monde avec un seul objectif : nous y faire rentrer et kiffer !

On this week's LuxeGen Group Chat, India is joined by Saroop and Nikita for a catch-up covering everything from the Winter Olympics to Disney-core fashion and celeb hot takes. First, what's actually going on at the Winter Olympics? From a Norwegian athlete publicly confessing he cheated on his girlfriend (after winning bronze…) to rumours of 10,000 condoms running out in three days and very questionable ski-jumping ‘enhancements', it's a lot. We also unpack Zayn Malik's ‘Call Her Daddy' interview and whether saying he was “never in love” with Gigi Hadid was honest… or just harsh.Plus, Celine Dion vs Rihanna (did ‘Love On The Brain' belong to her?), Amelia Dimoldenberg's upcoming feature film, and the bigger conversation around influencers-turned-actors. On the fashion front, we're obsessed with the new Mimi Webb x Disney collection at Primark – think statement accessories and vintage Mickey energy. And things we're loving? Period pants, a history-learning app that feels like Duolingo for culture and the Instagram ads draining our bank accounts.AD | In Partnership with Disney PANELIndia | @indiaagy | https://www.instagram.com/indiaagy Brandy Melville White Ashlyn Top | https://uk.brandymelville.com/products/ashlyn-top-8 Pull & Bear Barrel Fit Darted Trousers (Alternative) | https://tinyurl.com/3ajshpcj Nikkita Chadha | @nikkitachadha | https://www.instagram.com/nikkitachadha Alohas Club Suede Raspberry Leather Sneakers | https://tinyurl.com/4xkrzxy2 Saroop Sangha | @saroop.k.s | https://www.instagram.com/saroop.k.s/ Topshop Knitted Scarf Jumper (Alternative) | https://tinyurl.com/3ncxr87n Balzac Paris Baya Belt | https://balzac-paris.com/en-gb/products/ceinture-baya-noirBalzac Paris Alix Moccasins | https://tinyurl.com/mr2juatz THINGS WE'RE LOVINGDisney X Mimi Webb Mickey Mouse Cap | https://tinyurl.com/5n855n5r Disney X Mimi Webb Mickey Mouse Crew Socks | https://tinyurl.com/4rz255sv Disney X Mimi Webb Mickey Mouse Ringer Baby Tee | https://tinyurl.com/mjpdp83r Disney X Mimi Webb Mickey Mouse Shoulder Bag | https://tinyurl.com/6nkybz4r Disney X Mimi Webb Mickey Mouse Sweatshirt | https://tinyurl.com/5edbss5tModibodi Period Underwear | https://www.modibodi.co.uk/collections/periods M&S Absorbency Period Thongs | https://tidd.ly/4kOfaq3 Carelli Bambi Jacket | https://tinyurl.com/32smmc4p Hosted on Acast.

Today on Anchored By the Sword Podcast, I'm honored to welcome my friend Nikita Koloff—and y'all, this conversation is powerful, redemptive, and deeply encouraging.I first met Nikita back in 2022 at the NRB Convention in Nashville, and it feels wild how fast the years fly by. What hasn't changed is the impact of his testimony and the way God has completely transformed his life.Nikita grew up in Minneapolis, Minnesota, raised by a single mom after his father left when he was just three years old. He went on to become a standout football player, earning academic All-American honors, before stepping into the world of professional wrestling—where many know him as “The Russian Nightmare.” He had a wildly successful career, retiring early at just 33 years old… but success didn't equal fulfillment.In this episode, Nikita shares:How fame and success still left him emptyThe divine appointment that led him to church on October 17, 1993Surrendering his life to Christ at the altar—and never being the sameLearning to serve through missions and discipleshipLaunching Koloff for Christ Ministries and preaching in over 1,500 churchesMinistering in 36 countries and to crowds of over 70,000 peopleHis heart for men's ministry, discipleship, and calling men higherOne of the most moving parts of this conversation is Nikita's story of redemption and reconciliation with his father. After decades of distance, God restored their relationship—to the point where his father eventually said, “I love you, son,” for the first time at age 84. Nikita was with him when he went home to be with the Lord, and his father's final words to him were once again, “I love you, son.” Only God can write stories like that.Nikita also shares the verse that continues to anchor his life and ministry:Colossians 1:10 — a prayer to live a life worthy of the Lord, please Him in every way, bear fruit, and grow in the knowledge of God.This episode is a reminder that:Success without Christ will always fall shortGod is working behind the scenes long before we say “yes”Redemption is never too lateSaying yes to Jesus can change generationsWhether you're a wrestling fan, a leader, a parent, or someone searching for purpose—this conversation will meet you right where you are.

This Week in Machine Learning & Artificial Intelligence (AI) Podcast
Today, we're joined by Nikita Rudin, co-founder and CEO of Flexion Robotics to discuss the gap between current robotic capabilities and what's required to deploy fully autonomous robots in the real world. Nikita explains how reinforcement learning and simulation have driven rapid progress in robot locomotion—and why locomotion is still far from “solved.” We dig into the sim2real gap, and how adding visual inputs introduces noise and significantly complicates sim-to-real transfer. We also explore the debate between end-to-end models and modular approaches, and why separating locomotion, planning, and semantics remains a pragmatic approach today. Nikita also introduces the concept of "real-to-sim", which uses real-world data to refine simulation parameters for higher fidelity training, discusses how reinforcement learning, imitation learning, and teleoperation data are combined to train robust policies for both quadruped and humanoid robots, and introduces Flexion's hierarchical approach that utilizes pre-trained Vision-Language Models (VLMs) for high-level task orchestration with Vision-Language-Action (VLA) models and low-level whole-body trackers. Finally, Nikita shares the behind-the-scenes in humanoid robot demos, his take on reinforcement learning in simulation versus the real world, the nuances of reward tuning, and offers practical advice for researchers and practitioners looking to get started in robotics today.

"I don't want to make a zoo. I don't to take care of those animals for eternity, I want them to live on their own and in order to have a sustainable ecosystem it's extremely important to have all niches filled in this ecosystem." In the place of the vast Siberian tundras were once great grasslands teeming with wildlife, until early humans hunted them out. In the latest episode of Rewilding the World Nikita Zimov explains how his Pleistocene rewilding project in remotest Siberia is using wild horses, muskox, yaks and even camels to restore these grasslands, which - he suggests - can go a long way towards solving the climate crisis.Ben Goldsmith is a British financier and rewilding enthusiast.

The journey of entrepreneurship can often feel at odds with the realities of living with chronic illness, particularly when it comes to the concept of capacity. In this episode, we tackle the often-misunderstood idea of capacity, shifting the narrative from a relentless push for more to a compassionate understanding of what we can realistically manage. Capacity isn't just about productivity; it's about how much our bodies and minds can handle at any given moment, especially when faced with the unpredictable nature of chronic health issues. We explore the three primary forms of capacity that influence our entrepreneurial experience: emotional, cognitive, and energetic. Emotional capacity is crucial for handling the stress of marketing and visibility, particularly for those of us who may struggle with the expectations of always being “on.” Cognitive capacity reflects our ability to think and make decisions, which can be severely impacted by the demands of content creation and the fast-paced nature of social media. Lastly, energetic capacity speaks to the physical and sensory energy we can muster, which is often the most variable due to chronic health conditions. This episode emphasizes the importance of creating business systems that align with our current capacity rather than pushing us to meet unrealistic expectations. By focusing on long-form content, such as podcasting, we can share our stories and connect with our audience without the stress of constant output. The key takeaway is that our capacity is not the enemy; instead, it's our perceptions and business practices that need to adapt to honor our humanity. This understanding fosters a more sustainable approach to entrepreneurship, allowing us to thrive not despite our chronic illnesses but alongside them.Takeaways:Understanding capacity in business is not about doing more, but about what your nervous system can handle.Marketing strategies need to reflect the reality of fluctuating capacities, especially for those with chronic illnesses.Creating a business model that honors your humanity can lead to sustainable success without burnout.Podcasting serves as a capacity-aware marketing tool, reducing stress while allowing for authentic connection.✨ Thank you for listening.Here's how to connect with Nikita, your host:→ Book A Sales Call Here→ Grab your Free Curated Podcast for Business Growth Playlist→ Grab the Podcast Planner + App to start and grow your podcast with ease.→ Grab Your Free 5-Day Private Podcast Series to Help You Make Sales with Ease with Long-Form Content and Nervous-System-Friendly Marketing Strategies for Women with Chronic Illness & Burnt-Out Entrepreneurs.⭐ Loved this episode?
