OpenAI CEO Sam Altman once speculated that we'll soon see the first billion-dollar company run by one person and an army of AI agents. Journalist Evan Ratliff decided to put the idea to the test in the newest season of his podcast, “Shell Game,” where Ratliff and his team of synthetic co-founders, executives and workers launched their startup, HurumoAI. His AI agents designed a logo, built a website and eventually released their own agentic AI service. Marketplace's Meghan McCarty Carino spoke with Ratliff about what he learned from this whole experience.

Are Stocks Overvalued? CAPE RATIO Consumers... Consumer Confidence CODE RED -  Chief executive Sam Altman reportedly declared a “code red” on Monday, urging staff to improve its flagship product ChatGPT, an indicator that the startup's once-unassailable lead is eroding as competitors like Google and Anthropic close in. - In the memo, reported by the Wall Street Journal and The Information, Altman said the company will be delaying initiatives like ads, shopping and health agents, and a personal assistant, Pulse, to focus on improving ChatGPT. This includes core features like greater speed and reliability, better personalization, and the ability to answer more questions, he said. - Herein lies the problem with this entire tech market - what if ChatGPT fades to the sideline with $1.5Trillion promised over the next 5-7 years? - Remember, Google declared a Code Red after the arrival of ChatGPT.

Smart Toilets - This year industry giants Toto Ltd. and Kohler Co. introduced smart toilets capable of analyzing what is in the bowl - Launched in August, the latest model in the Neorest line starts at roughly $3,200. - It uses an LED light and a sensor to read the shape, color, hardness and volume of stool as it drops, and sends data to a smartphone app in less than a minute. - Each toilet can support as many as six users — enough for most households — while some companies have bought multiple units for their employees. Toto aims to sell 7,300 units annually by 2028. - For now the stool-scanning Neorest is available only in Japan. - The app analyzes bowel movements against the Bristol scale, which is commonly used to diagnose constipation, inflammation or diarrhea, and offers simple recommendations such as eating more fiber and drinking more water, or even menu suggestions, like vegetable soup.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1210: President Trump moves to unwind fuel-economy rules, hybrids surge while EV sales stumble across major brands, and OpenAI hits “code red” as the AI race heats up.Show Notes with links:The Trump administration is preparing to undo Biden-era fuel economy rules, arguing the standards have inflated new-car prices and forced unwanted EV adoption.Proposed rules expected to significantly soften the Biden-era 2031 target of ~50 mpg.Detroit automaker execs, including Stellantis CEO Antonio Filosa, will attend Wednesday's announcement.Trump frames the rollback as necessary to reduce vehicle prices, despite economists noting price drops wouldn't be immediate.Trump said he's “bringing back the automobile business,” predicting the industry will be “bigger than we've ever been.”He noted he likes EVs and believes hybrids “are working really well,” but defended ending what he called the “insane electric vehicle mandate” to ensure buyers “have a choice.”November delivered a clear message from American shoppers: hybrids are in, EVs… not so much. Across Toyota, Ford, Honda, Hyundai and Kia, strong hybrid gains couldn't offset steep EV drop-offs after the loss of federal tax credits—shaking up sales trends as dealers prep for year-end pushes.Toyota sales rose 2.7%, powered by light trucks, but EV volume cratered; electrified sales (mostly hybrids) still made up 44% of all deliveries.Ford deliveries dipped 0.7% as F-150 Lightning sales fell 72% and Mustang Mach-E dropped 49%, while hybrids climbed 14%.Honda sales slid 15% on semiconductor shortages; EVs collapsed—Prologue down 87% and ZDX down 98%.Hyundai-Kia stayed mixed: Hyundai down 2.3% as EV demand tanked again, Kia up 2.7% on strong hybrids and core crossovers.“With more tariffed products replacing existing nontariffed inventory, prices are drifting higher, leading to slower sales… and this may last through the remainder of the year and into next year,” said Cox Automotive's Charlie Chesbrough.OpenAI is hitting the panic button—literally—declaring a “code red” to overhaul ChatGPT's quality as Google's Gemini surge and Anthropic's business traction close the gap. With massive data-center spending, user expectations rising, and now early signs of ads coming to ChatGPT, the pressure is officially on.Sam Altman told staff OpenAI is pausing other projects to focus entirely on ChatGPT's speed, reliability, personalization, and question-handling, including starting a daily call for those responsible for improving ChatGPT.Competitor pressure is mounting: Google's latest Gemini model beat OpenAI onJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

OpenAI has declared a "code red" as it faces intensified competition from companies like Google and Anthropic, prompting a shift in focus towards enhancing the capabilities of its ChatGPT platform. CEO Sam Altman has urged staff to prioritize improvements in speed, reliability, and personalization, delaying other initiatives such as advertising. This strategic pivot comes as OpenAI also announced an ownership stake in Thrive Holdings, a company that acquires and transforms service firms, particularly in accounting and IT, with the aim of integrating AI to improve operational efficiency.A recent study by Stebo Systems highlights a significant gap between Chief Information Officers' (CIOs) perceptions of their organizations' AI readiness and the actual state of their data management. While 91% of U.S. business leaders recognize the importance of customer data management, only 31% fully trust their data. The study reveals that 76% of organizations still rely on side spreadsheets to address data issues, indicating a lack of centralized data governance. This fragmentation leads to wasted time and lost revenue, underscoring the need for robust data governance frameworks as organizations aim to adopt AI-driven services.The episode also discusses the implications of surveillance AI, particularly a model developed by Securis Technologies that predicts and prevents crimes among inmates using data from prison phone calls. While the company claims success in disrupting criminal activities, concerns about civil liberties and the ethical use of such data have been raised. This situation serves as a cautionary tale for IT service providers, emphasizing the importance of establishing governance frameworks to mitigate risks associated with AI deployment in business environments.For Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and IT leaders, the key takeaway is the necessity of controlling their own AI strategies. As OpenAI integrates vertically into the service industry, independent MSPs must differentiate themselves by building their own AI capabilities and data governance practices. The episode stresses that without a solid data foundation, AI initiatives are likely to fail, and MSPs should focus on enhancing data quality and governance to ensure successful AI implementations and maintain client trust. Four things to know today 00:00 OpenAI Pauses Ads Amid “Code Red” While Buying Into MSP Rollup, Raising Platform–Competitor Concerns05:16 Leaders Say They're Ready for AI — but Their Data Still Lives in Side Spreadsheets07:49 Securus Call-Monitoring AI Shows How Predictive Surveillance Could Spill Into Workplace Tools10:27 New AI Helpers and Simple M365 Assessments Raise the Bar for Modern IT Providers This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by:  https://getflexpoint.com/msp-radio/https://cometbackup.com/?utm_source=mspradio&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=sponsorship

Stiamo vivendo uno dei momenti più difficili di sempre per chi entra nel mondo del lavoro. Per la prima volta nella storia, la disoccupazione tra i laureati supera quella generale e le offerte per i lavori entry-level sono crollate in modo drammatico. Mentre i giovani faticano a trovare un posto, l'intelligenza artificiale sta scalando una montagna verticale: i modelli migliorano ogni mese, il loro costo scende e il lavoro cognitivo sta perdendo valore più velocemente di quanto il sistema educativo riesca ad aggiornarsi.In questo video analizzo la “Jobpocalypse”, l'apocalisse del lavoro prevista dagli esperti, spiegando perché nei prossimi mille giorni il valore economico di molte professioni potrebbe andare verso lo zero. Dal sorpasso dell'AI nelle classifiche professionali citate da Sam Altman alla crescita super-esponenziale dei modelli, passando per il crollo degli entry-level, il mismatch di competenze e la fuga dei giovani dall'Italia, emerge un quadro chiaro: il mercato sta cambiando più velocemente delle persone.Parliamo di skill mismatch, aziende che non trovano competenze, neolaureati che non vengono valorizzati, un sistema che forma piloti di Formula Uno per poi metterli a guidare un taxi. Ma parliamo anche dell'unica direzione che può trasformare questa crisi in un'opportunità: spostare il proprio valore dalle attività ripetitive alle competenze profondamente umane — creatività, strategia, leadership — e usare l'intelligenza artificiale come leva, non come nemico.

Comenzamos el episodio analizando la sorprendente noticia de que Apple podría estar negociando con Intel para la fabricación de futuros procesadores de la serie M. Debatimos el informe de Ming-Chi Kuo que apunta a 2027 como fecha clave para que Intel asuma la producción de los chips de gama base, rompiendo así la exclusividad con TSMC. Valoramos las implicaciones estratégicas de este movimiento, tanto para la diversificación de la cadena de suministro como para la imagen de fabricación estadounidense, y cómo esto podría convivir con la producción de los modelos Pro y Max en Taiwán.A continuación, abordamos el drástico aumento en los precios de la memoria RAM y cómo esta inflación de componentes está asfixiando al mercado del PC, aunque Apple parece tener margen para absorber el impacto. También dedicamos un espacio a comentar la colaboración entre Jony Ive y Sam Altman para OpenAI; discutimos la falta de concreción sobre su futuro dispositivo de hardware para inteligencia artificial, del que apenas se sabe que buscará ser un objeto "juguetón" y que podría tardar aún dos años en materializarse, planteando dudas sobre su viabilidad frente al avance de los smartphones actuales.Por último, repasamos el rendimiento comercial del concepto "iPhone Air" y cómo la competencia en Android observa con cautela este segmento de móviles ultradelgados. Explicamos los avances técnicos que permitirían a los Google Pixel utilizar AirDrop mediante ingeniería inversa y cerramos comentando la actualidad de los servicios, destacando el éxito de la serie Pluribus en Apple TV+, la cancelación del estreno de Furtivo por acusaciones de plagio y la posible expansión de las funciones satelitales de Apple para el próximo año.

ChatGPT fête ses 3 ans : retour sur une révolution technologique désormais ancrée dans nos usages. Google rebondit avec Gemini 3 et relance la bataille de l'IA face à OpenAI. Apple patauge. Les robots prolifèrent… mais sauront-ils prendre soin de leur hygiène ?Partenariat : Free Pro, le meilleur de Free pour les entreprisesAvec François Sorel (BFM Tech & Co) et Bruno Guglielminetti (moncarnet.com)ChatGPT a 3 ans : quel bilan pour l'IA générative ?Lancé en catimini le 30 novembre 2022, ChatGPT compte aujourd'hui plus de 800 millions d'utilisateurs hebdomadaires. Une progression fulgurante, marquée par l'intégration de l'interface vocale et la mémoire conversationnelle. François Sorel salue une nouvelle ergonomie technologique. Bruno Guglielminetti partage des usages concrets, bluffants, parfois presque… thérapeutiques. On s'accorde sur le risque de paresse cognitive qui nous guette. ChatGPT n'est pas un cerveau, c'est un outil — et il faut le manier avec recul.Google revient dans la course avec Gemini 3Après l'échec de Bard, Google a sorti Gemini 3, salué pour ses performances. Fait marquant : le modèle tourne en partie sur les puces maison TPU, marquant une rupture avec la dépendance aux GPU Nvidia. Selon certains analystes, Gemini pourrait concurrencer sérieusement OpenAI, au point d'inquiéter Sam Altman lui-même. L'IA, chez Google, devient un produit à part entière, maîtrisé de bout en bout.Apple : des chaussettes et des doutesApple semble en retrait. Malgré la promesse d'Apple Intelligence, peu de concrétisations sont visibles à ce stade. La firme fait davantage parler d'elle avec des produits… inattendus, comme la chaussette pour iPhone, objet statutaire vendu en édition limitée. Des rumeurs de licenciements et de départ de Tim Cook alimentent le sentiment d'une transition floue.Robots humanoïdes : promesses et absurditésTrois nouveaux robots humanoïdes ont été dévoilés ce mois-ci. La France, absente du hardware, pourrait tirer son épingle du jeu via le logiciel embarqué, à condition de légiférer en amont. Et puis, on se pose une question moins anecdotique qu'elle en a l'air : les robots se lavent-ils les mains ? -----------♥️ Soutien : https://mondenumerique.info/don

After surviving Thanksgiving and the subsequent biting cold, we jumped into the FOLLOW UP with news that Malaysia is joining the trend by taking steps to ban social media for children under 16, mirroring similar actions in Australia and Denmark—it seems the world is finally realizing the internet is a toxic wasteland for the kids. We also discussed Apple's photo AI, which is apparently still in beta, if the results are anything to go by. The bulk of our discussion centered on the spectacular, flaming death of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), which is Officially Dead. We broke down a brief rundown of the damages this vanity project caused, from humanitarian disasters overseas to administrative chaos and the loss of hundreds of thousands of jobs domestically, proving the "savings" were pure illusion. Now, with the collapse, the 'Suddenly exposed' DOGE employees fear prosecution after Musk abandoned them, learning the hard way that billionaire guardianship has an expiration date.The job market is just great, with both Apple laying off part of its sales team despite record revenue, and HP joining the List of Tech Companies Cutting Jobs and pointing to AI as the convenient scapegoat for laying off 10% of their workforce. Meanwhile, we found out the most popular social media platform among US adults isn't Instagram or TikTok—it's YouTube—while Meta allegedly buried research showing its products are harming users, confirming what we've known all along: they're evil, but they already got your grandma hooked. Adding to the misery, An Alarming Number of Teens Say They Turn To AI For Company, Study Finds, because why talk to a real, messy human when a bot can gaslight you more efficiently? Sam Altman's financial troubles are spilling over, with Sam Altman's Business Buddies Are Getting Stung (sorry, SoftBank and Oracle), and analysts estimate OpenAI Is Just $200 Billion Away From Still Losing Money, HSBC Says, a comical hole they plan to fill by asking for more free money. Legally, OpenAI can't use the Word ‘Cameo' in Sora now, thanks to a trademark suit, and Warner Music is playing both sides by dropping its lawsuit against Suno in exchange for a licensing agreement. Finally, in some truly dark news, a Marc Andreessen-backed Super-PAC Pours Millions Into Fighting State AI Regulations, and X's new location feature reveals that New X Feature Reveals Many MAGA Patriots on X Are Not Even Based in the U.S.After ranting about my misery dealing with the Open Dialogue bug in a beta build and declaring my return to "pedestrian releases," we got into APPS & DOODADS. Spotify is actually doing something cool with its new SongDNA feature, which shows you who sampled what (and they bought WhoSampled to do it). They're also testing Spotify's New AI-powered audiobook Recaps to remind you where you left off—Amazon is doing the same with AI-powered series Recap Videos for Prime Video. Amazon is also rolling out Alexa Home Theater surround sound for Echo speakers, making those budget speakers slightly more useful. We ran through some great stocking stuffers in Jason's Holiday Gift Guide, including Velcro cable ties and the Contigo travel mug, before moving on to MEDIA CANDY, which included Dan Carlin's Common Sense, Nathan Fillion and Alan Tudyk's new podcast Once We Were Spacemen, and a discussion on why Stranger Things Lost the Plot. We then got deeply uncomfortable talking about a Toronto ASMR spa that offers doctor roleplay, and closed out by talking about the documentary Quiet Please… about the neurological disorder misophonia. The episode finished with the AT THE LIBRARY segment, covering the Milli Vanilli memoir You Know It's True and the sci-fi short story collection The Time Travelers Passport.Show notes at https://gog.show/724Watch now on YouTube: https://youtu.be/PoMa9FM5QEE?si=4r25yqv_0u8aXHF7Sponsors:MasterClass - Get up to 50% off at MASTERCLASS.com/GRUMPYOLDGEEKSGusto - Try Gusto today at gusto.com/grumpy, and get three months free when you run your first payroll.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

Trois ans après son lancement, ChatGPT s'impose comme une force majeure du numérique, redéfinissant nos usages, notre travail et l'équilibre mondial de l'industrie de l'intelligence artificielle.Une adoption fulgurante qui redéfinit nos usages numériquesEn trois ans, ChatGPT est passé de simple curiosité technologique à outil quotidien pour des centaines de millions d'utilisateurs. Deux mois ont suffi pour atteindre les 100 millions d'usagers, un record historique, avant de grimper à 800 millions d'utilisateurs hebdomadaires aujourd'hui. En France, près de 40 % de la population a déjà essayé l'outil, et le pays se distingue par un nombre record d'abonnés payants. La recherche en ligne se transforme : on ne cherche plus, on demande. Cette bascule conversationnelle oblige les moteurs à repenser leurs modèles, tandis que les risques de confusion entre vrai et vraisemblable augmentent.Une révolution silencieuse du travail et de la créationL'essor de l'IA générative change profondément la production de texte, d'images, de vidéo et même de code. Les outils comme ChatGPT ou les modèles multimodaux accélèrent les tâches, homogénéisent les formats et reconfigurent de nombreux métiers. L'automatisation du travail cognitif s'intensifie, comme le rappelle Elon Musk, tandis que les entreprises misent sur l'assistance numérique pour accroître productivité et compétences. Le vocabulaire du quotidien évolue également : LLM, hallucinations, prompt engineering, fine-tuning… preuve d'une mutation culturelle accélérée.Un nouvel équilibre géopolitique et économiqueChatGPT a mis en lumière de nouvelles figures, à commencer par Sam Altman, devenu incontournable dans la Silicon Valley. OpenAI déclare 4,3 milliards de dollars de revenus au premier semestre 2025 mais fait face à des coûts massifs pour l'entraînement de ses modèles. La compétition mondiale est intense, menée par Google, Anthropic, Meta, Mistral AI ou encore les projets open source. La bataille industrielle se concentre autour des data centers et des puces, dominée notamment par Nvidia.La prochaine étape : la course à la superintelligenceLa next big thing est déjà lancée : la superIA. OpenAI, Google et Anthropic travaillent sur des modèles capables de raisonner, planifier et agir comme de véritables agents autonomes. Une perspective à la fois fascinante et inquiétante. Si les trois dernières années ont été fulgurantes, les trois prochaines pourraient être déterminantes pour l'équilibre mondial… et pour la place de l'Europe.-----------♥️ Soutien : https://mondenumerique.info/don

From losing his $25,000 life savings on his first startup investment to democratizing venture capital for everyday investors, Gerry Hays shares proven strategies for making early-stage investing accessible through VentureStaking while teaching founders outside traditional tech hubs how to raise capital and build sustainable businesses. In this episode of the DealQuest Podcast, host Corey Kupfer sits down with Gerry Hays, founder and CEO of Doriot and Senior Lecturer at Indiana University's Kelley School of Business. Gerry has made 75+ startup investments, taught venture capital for 20 years, and built multiple companies from zero to exit, including HomeYeah.com and Charlie Biggs Food Company. His current mission focuses on expanding venture capital access beyond coastal hubs through innovative funding models. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: In this episode, you'll discover how to participate in early-stage startup investing with as little as $10 through the VentureStaking model, why the right to invest later in winning companies proves more valuable than over-investing today, and how collapsing startup costs are fundamentally changing capital requirements for founders. Gerry shares strategies for avoiding what he calls "the fool's tax" when making your first investments, the critical importance of backing founders over ideas, and why venture investing resembles poker more than roulette. You'll also learn about building venture ecosystems within universities where students and alumni can collaborate on funding and growth, navigating the decision between raising capital versus bootstrapping your business, and the difference between venture-appropriate businesses versus lifestyle companies. The conversation explores tokenization's potential to create an ownership economy, why cultivation mindset beats consumption thinking for long-term wealth building, and what freedom from scarcity truly means in both dealmaking and life. GERRY'S JOURNEY: Gerry's path into venture capital came through painful education. After leaving law practice after just six months, he made his first investment at age 27, putting his entire life savings of $25,000 into a hazardous waste processing technology. He knew the space intimately from running lobbying for Indiana's Department of Environmental Management. The technology made sense. The market opportunity was clear. But the founder couldn't execute, and Gerry lost everything. That lesson kept him away from startup investing for a decade. Instead, he became a founder himself, launching HomeYeah.com during the dot-com boom. He acquired a small Indianapolis company with 25 lawn signs and built it into the 11th largest real estate company in Indianapolis by transactions, growing from zero to $1.8 million in revenue in just 20 to 24 months. The company sold to Help-U-Sell Real Estate in 2003, but not before Gerry experienced the challenge of raising capital outside traditional tech hubs. After the HomeYeah.com exit, Indiana University invited him to teach a new venture capital course. He's been there since 2004, creating what he calls a bridge between academic theory and real-world startup practice. Meanwhile, he co-founded Charlie Biggs Food Company, scaling it from zero to $10 million in revenue with distribution in over 1,000 retail locations before exiting through a private equity deal. FIRST INVESTMENT LESSONS: That initial $25,000 loss taught Gerry what he calls "avoiding the fool's tax." The fundamental insight was simple but profound. When you invest, you're really investing in founders more than ideas. He was simply a bad picker of founders at that point. The technology expertise didn't matter. Market knowledge didn't matter. What mattered was identifying founders who could execute through inevitable obstacles and pivots. This lesson shaped everything that followed. Gerry wouldn't touch startup investing again for ten years after that loss. When he did return, his approach centered on cultivating relationships with founders over time, watching how they respond to challenges, and building diversified portfolios that acknowledge most investments will fail. VENTURESTAKING MODEL: The VentureStaking approach emerged from Gerry's years of teaching and investing. The model allows investors to participate with as little as $10 in early-stage founders. Instead of writing large checks for immediate equity, venture stakers provide small grants to founders just getting started. If those founders break out and raise a real equity round, the stakers get invited to invest at 10 times their initial stake. The math works elegantly. Out of 25 investments of $10 each totaling $250, you might only see three worth backing in a real round. But when winners emerge, you've earned the right to participate in meaningful equity rounds without the traditional barriers to entry. This democratizes access while maintaining sophisticated portfolio construction principles. Gerry likens venture investing to poker rather than roulette. You play many hands with small amounts. You fold most of them. But when you spot real winners, you bet heavy. This is cultivation versus consumption, a long-term wealth-building game that Warren Buffett exemplifies, having created 99% of his wealth after age 65. THE COLLAPSING COST OF STARTING: One of the most profound shifts Gerry identifies is how startup costs have collapsed. What required $5 million to build ten years ago can now be created in a day for $50 thanks to AI agents, no-code platforms, and cloud services. This changes everything about capital requirements and who can be a founder. This trend combines with tokenization to create what Gerry calls an ownership economy. Instead of owning a few stocks generating passive income, people could hold tokens in 150 companies, each generating small amounts of passive income without traditional barriers to entry. The infrastructure for this future is being built now through blockchain technology and regulatory evolution. UNIVERSITY VENTURE ECOSYSTEMS: Gerry's work brings the VentureStaking model to universities, creating ecosystems where students, alumni, and faculty can participate in funding and building the next generation of startups. Indiana University has 70,000 students and 800,000 alumni. Imagine creating an arena where students pitch ideas, alumni back them with small stakes, and the community participates in the upside when founders succeed. Shared information, shared risk, shared prosperity. This approach captures innovation traditional VCs miss entirely. Founders outside coastal hubs gain access to capital. Alumni gain access to investment opportunities typically reserved for accredited investors with six-figure minimums. Students learn by doing rather than just studying theory. The model scales to any university willing to build the infrastructure. KEY INSIGHTS: Geographic location shouldn't determine access to capital. Gerry experienced this firsthand with HomeYeah.com in Indianapolis. He wasn't in California. He didn't have the right connections. That challenge drives his current work at Doriot, focused on democratizing venture capital for founders and investors outside traditional hubs. The Sam Altman example illustrates how network effects compound. Altman invested $15,000 in Stripe in 2009, now worth $650 million. That wealth creates access to more deals. Those deals create more wealth. The rich get richer not because they're smarter but because they have access. VentureStaking aims to expand that access. Contracts matter, but people matter just as much. Gerry's experience shows that when something seems too easy, like tenants responding unusually quickly to lease documents without redlines for 10-15 year commitments, it raises red flags. You can have perfect legal documents but still face challenges if you're working with the wrong people. THE SHARK TANK STORY: Gerry shares his Shark Tank experience where his former student pitched a business and received a $250,000 offer from Mark Cuban for 35% equity. Gerry advised him that existing SAFEs would push him below 50% ownership. The founder turned down Cuban's offer. That "no" to Mark Cuban kicked off Season 4 of Shark Tank and generated publicity that proved more valuable than the deal itself. The company continued growing without the investment. CULTIVATION VERSUS CONSUMPTION: One of Gerry's most powerful insights addresses how society trains people for consumption rather than cultivation. We've made sports betting legal. Prediction markets are booming. We're training young people about fast-moving money and dopamine hits. But venture investing is a cultivation game. You're dropping seeds into the ground and watching what the universe brings back. He gave a student $5,000 who wanted to build something in the travel industry. The founder pivoted to AI and Shopify and just raised $8 million at a $55 million valuation. That $5,000 investment is now worth over $200,000. The bet wasn't on the idea. It was on a founder who wouldn't quit. That's something you discover by playing the game, getting yourself into wealth-building activities where you're patient, watching, and learning. FREEDOM FROM SCARCITY: When asked about freedom, Gerry's answer cut to something fundamental. Being free from a scarcity mindset is profoundly important. Everything around us reinforces scarcity. But when you let go of that and realize how abundant things really are, it changes how you see opportunities. You can afford to be patient. You can take calculated risks. You can help others succeed knowing there's enough to go around. This mindset applies to venture capital, to dealmaking, to entrepreneurship, and to life. When you operate from abundance rather than scarcity, you see opportunities differently. Capital formation is evolving. The question is whether that evolution will democratize opportunity or concentrate it further. Gerry's betting on democratization. Perfect for investors curious about venture capital but feeling locked out of traditional opportunities, founders outside coastal tech hubs seeking capital, university administrators exploring venture ecosystem development, and anyone interested in how capital formation is evolving to become more accessible while maintaining sophisticated portfolio construction principles.

After our “AILIEN The Final Card” show, it became apparent that the push to grant mass “amnesty” to every person and agency involved in black budget programs was a dangerous narrative gaining more traction by the day, and now compounded by an executive order from the White House titled “Launching the Genesis Mission.” This program seeks to support, along with the AI regulation moratorium of the BBB, the narrative that “America is in a race for global technology dominance in the development of artificial intelligence (AI).” The first section states: “the challenges we face require a historic national effort, comparable in urgency and ambition to the Manhattan Project that was instrumental to our victory in World War II.” But what suddenly changed? Have other countries cracked the AI egg entirely or has, as the UFO community suggests, they reverse engineered alien tech fully? Even so, a dangerous nationwide Manhattan Project should be a secret, not a public initiative. One part of the EO says the goal is to develop "AI-enabled predictive models, simulation models, and design optimization tools,” things that have been sold to the public over and over again, from climate change to pandemic models, but which have all been wrong. But if AI says something is true based on a model, it must be correct. However, if AI is merely saying what is most likely based on current actions, like a tarot reading, then if all current policies are designed for war then isn't that what we will get? Isn't that what Alex Karp of Palantir said would happen? And isn't “Genesis” also “skynet”?For those left waiting for something “big” to happen it will be disappointing to learn that it already has. Engineered smart/micro-dust is currently turning the world into a giant sensor, while Sam Altman of the Stargate Project, OpenAI, and the Orb, is now funding CRISPR-based embryo gene editing as the alterer-of-man.And to keep us entertained during this slow-burn apocalyptic invasion, we have KION, an AI-created K-pop star who's clearly created with all he best black goo moments from Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga, Billie Eilish, and the like. It all makes sense if the gift of “UFO technology” may in fact be a series of blueprints to build the alien mind on earth; the name KION, from various languages, translates to ancient-foundation-leader-possessed. In other words, Lovecraft's Old Ones once more. But IT is being sold as a sexy black goo princess.  *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Bioengineered meat — I don't wanna eat a piece of chicken that came from a 3-D printer."He also allegedly made derogatory comments about Indian coworkers and – according to the recording – claimed he sometimes came to work under the influence of marijuana: "F---ing Indians don't know a f---ing thing," the voice on the recording says. "They couldn't think for their f---ing selves."The statement follows claims made by former Campbell's security analyst Robert Garza, who filed a lawsuit in Wayne County Circuit Court alleging that Bally launched into an hour-long tirade during what was meant to be a discussion about Garza's salary.Campbell's: “We are proud of the food we make, the people who make it and the high-quality ingredients we use ... The comments on the recording are not only inaccurate—they are patently absurd.Campbell's also noted that Bally is not involved in food development. “Keep in mind, the alleged comments are made by an IT person, who has nothing to do with how we make our food,” the statement concluded.WHO DO YOU BLAME?The founding families:Voting power: (35%) Mary Alice D.

WHO DO YOU BLAMEAshley Buchanan: On May 1, 2025, Kohl's board terminated Buchanan “for cause” following an outside investigation overseen by its Audit Committee. The investigation found that Buchanan directed Kohl's to do business with a vendor founded by someone with whom he had a personal relationship. He also caused Kohl's to enter into a multimillion-dollar consulting agreement involving that same person. Crucially, he did not disclose this personal relationship, which was a violation of Kohl's code of ethics.Golden hello: $17m equity and $3.75m cashFormer director Christine Day: Shortly after Buchanan was fired, Day resigned, citing “lack of transparency” and governance concerns. Day said she was frustrated that not all board members were kept informed of risks and that decisions seemed centralized (“Michael ‘handles' everything … then ‘tells' everyone what the decision is”). Kohl's strongly disputed her characterization, saying her resignation was not “due to any disagreements” over operations or practices.Investors: chair Bender named interim CEO 4/30/25… AGM 5/14/2595% yes bender; 55% yes pay; 89% yes Prising; 92% average; new chair 91% John E.

This is the $99 Kumma bear made by FoloToy using OpenAI's service. OpenAI said it was suspending Folotoy for violations of usage of ChatGPT. WHO DO YOU BLAME?:Folotoy, who's founder and CEO Larry Wang calls himself “Chief Geek Officer” and has a background in child psychology and behavioral science… oh, wait, not, he has background in computer science and was founder of a tech telecomm company and was a software developer for insurance before that. But he's obviously qualified to do this: “Kumma, our adorable bear, combines advanced artificial intelligence with friendly, interactive features, making it the perfect friend for both kids and adults. From lively conversations to educational storytelling, FoloToy adapts to your personality and needs, bringing warmth, fun, and a little extra curiosity to your day.”OpenAI - obviously Sam Altman's commitment to “the benefit of humanity” stopped short of “sex advice from baby toys,” even though he says having kids of his own will help him not destroy humanity. I assume he's not getting Sammy Jr a Kumma bear? DROpenAI's board - obviously if they had fired Sam Altman, there wouldn't be sex bears using ChatGPT. But Helen Toner was forced out by the rest of the board, investors, and public pressure - she's since said, “But for years, Sam had made it really difficult for the board to actually do that job by withholding information, misrepresenting things that were happening at the company, in some cases outright lying to the board,” and that Altman gave them, “inaccurate information about the small number of formal safety processes that the company did have in place.” Perhaps Altman said, “no, that teddy bear didn't just say he loved oral sex, that's just a misinterpretation.”Microsoft - Satya, despite misgivings from Bill Gates, threw $10bn at OpenAI in January 2023. In November 2023, the board removed Sam Altman. Turns out Microsoft had released a version of ChatGPT in India that Altman sanctioned outside of safety protocols - the board should have signed off, but Altman lied to them and hid it. But rather than Microsoft pulling back the release and recognizing the damage it could do, they swooped in and “hired” Sam Altman 3 days after his firing. Their $10bn investment might have been the first cog in a sex bear wheel.I'm the Chief People Officer at Walmart. I always wake up to the same U2 song and watch the 'Today' show. That is Donna Morris listening to U2's “Beautiful Day”, the first thing she does is go online, she doesn't drink coffee but drinks Diet Coke (“I've just never been a hot drink type of girl, I guess. I try to limit myself to two Diet Cokes a day, although every once in a while, I sneak in a third.”), she likes buying cookbooks but doesn't use them. Not mentioned: Walmart's DEI rollback, the new CEO coming in, working for a family dictatorship, and any of her colleagues - as chief people officer, there are almost zero people mentioned. WHO DO WE BLAME FOR THIS EXISTING?Professional Conservative Snowflake Robby Starbuck - he claimed Walmart as his first “victory” after Trump's election in the DEI rollback. Post-Starbuck snowflake-ism, Morris might have had a job managing humans, but now her job is basically to send pink slips and make sure there aren't TOO many swastikas in the bathroom stall. A few is fine, but c'mon. So to pass the time, Morris is stuck giving interviews to Business Insider.Business Insider, who must have known Morris had the potential to give an insipid review of her day when this was her excuse for Walmart's DEI rollback: "When you talk about diversity, equity, inclusion, all in part, there can be communities, and often the largest communities, that step back and say, 'Geez, I'm not sure if I'm even actually included'," Morris explained of the decision. Which echoes… ROBBY FUCKING STARBUCK, who said to anyone who would listen: "This is the biggest win yet for our movement to end wokeness in corporate America. This won't just have a massive effect for their employees who will have a neutral workplace without feeling that divisive issues are being injected but it will also extend to their many suppliers."Donna Morris, because as only we covered here when discussing the corporate move to blame the employees for every problem and getting fired, had this to say of her biggest red flag on an employee: “Nobody wants [to hire] a Debbie Downer. [Someone who is] constantly negative. You know they're going to show up [and] they're going to bring the problem, never the solution.” Literally, the JOB of HR is to field COMPLAINTS from employees about how their managers treat them - or is it too Debbie Downer to complain about racial discrimination of employees?Walmart's board - they must have signed off on Morris getting hired, right? Or a Walton? Someone somewhere thought this was a good idea? Take your pick:CFO of OpenAI Sarah Friar (who said OpenAI would need a government backstop, then clarified)Brian Niccol, the CEO of Starbucks who was given a golden hello, a golden parachute, and probably a golden shower, who just named to a “worst CEO” listThe current AND former CEO of WalmartSteuart Walton, who couldn't bother to even be named “Stuart” (he had to spell it with an extra “E”) with a claim to fame of marrying a Baywatch reboot actress, and Greg Penner, the son-in-law of a different Walton and snuck his way onto the board AND as co-owner of the Denver BroncosTom Horton, retired American Airlines CEO who was CFO of American for years right before they declared bankruptcy, but somehow is remembered for “restructuring” them instead of bankrupting them?Marissa Mayer - yes, that Mayer, formerly of YahooNot one, but TWO different consultantsRandall Stephenson, ex AT&T CEO, who, if I'm honest, seems to have actual integrity and I'm not sure why he's here, plus two DEI directors (because they're not white, so probably not qualified)
