A wave of layoffs in Square Enix sparks worry, as the company enters the second year of its three year restructuring plan. We discuss the impact this will have on Square Enix as a whole, and if it will affect Final Fantasy XIV at all. The voice of G'raha Tia, Jonathan Bailey, was awarded the title "Sexiest Man Alive". We discuss if Jonathan Bailey is about to be replaced due to his likely high cost and limited schedule now. We also discuss mysteries in video games - and the risk of revealing too much. We also discuss SE's recent announcement about their push for AI, aiming to replace 70% of their QA teams with AI.► Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/SpeakersXIV ► Become a Speakers YT Member: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC2BQVHKP5x3Cs62MB0DF5EQ/join ► Merchandise: https://speakersxiv-shop.fourthwall.com/ ► Follow us on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/speakersxiv.bsky.social ► Catch us LIVE on Twitch: http://www.twitch.tv/SpeakersXIV ► Speakers Discord: https://discord.gg/ATBUccS

If you're a leader in game dev who feels stuck, there is a path forward that levels up your leadership and accelerates your team, game, and career. Sign up here to learn more: https://forms.gle/nqRTUvgFrtdYuCbr6 You can't just test quality into a game at the end. You have to build it in from the start. Ignoring your Quality Assurance team's full value is a fast way to lose millions. The state of game development is at a challenging inflection point, characterized by high-risk live service ambitions and a brain drain of senior talent. Host Ben Carcich sits down with Nathan Tiras, former Game Dev veteran (Riot Games, Singularity 6), to dissect this instability and dive deep into the discipline seen as an "entry-level" role: Quality Assurance (QA). Nathan, who worked his way from a QA Analyst at Riot to the Director of QA and Live Service at Singularity 6 (makers of Palia), argues that QA is not just "testing" but a critical quality function that represents the voice of the player. This deep-dive explores how leaders must move beyond the "QA as tester" stereotype to unlock the massive subjective value and risk-prevention only highly skilled, respected QA professionals can provide. What You'll Learn in this Episode: What "quality" really means in 2025, and why the best QA teams shape player experience How bringing QA in at pre-production saves time, money, and your launch day sanity Why bug counts don't define QA's worth The human edge of judgment, creativity, and tribal knowledge that no tool can replicate How great leaders build quality teams that protect business continuity and deliver real returns Learn more about Nathan: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nathan-tiras-he-him-8a45754/ Company: https://www.whatnot.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nathantiras/?hl=en Board Game Geek: https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgamedesigner/95100/nathan-tiras Check his other YouTube appearances: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2mmERgh19c https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xyt3bnBgNqk Connect with us:

QUOTES FROM STEVE: "The challenge isn't how far we can push efficiency—but how affordable we can make it." "Give builders a clear target and the market will respond." "It's been a hell of a ride—thanks for the memories. Now it's your turn to take it to the next level." Steve Baden tells the story of RESNET®'s early days—from Alaska's energy-code back-and-forth to a market-based framework that encouraged builders with targets rather than rules. That experiment birthed home energy ratings, a national standard, and eventually RESNET® itself—formed with the Mortgage Bankers Association and state energy offices to create a uniform "MPG for homes." The payoff: 4.8 million HERS®-rated homes to date and 420k+ in the last year, with large production builders using the RESNET® HERS® score to compete on quality in down markets. Baden credits stepwise, consensus standards (HERS → ANSI©/RESNET® 301), rigorous QA, and healthy software competition for scaling with credibility. He highlights investments in the registry, virtual QA, and an "emerging leaders" pipeline to keep talent and ideas flowing. Looking ahead, he frames RESNET®'s million-ratings-per-year goal by 2028 against today's affordability crunch: performance gains must be paired with cost sensitivity, or we lock people out of housing. As Baden steps into a new chapter, he leaves a simple message behind: value the people, keep the partnerships strong, and keep RESNET moving forward.    Steve's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/steve-baden-54080212/   To the RESNET® community, we hear you and want to engage.

Gaza : que sait-on de la future force internationale ?    Les États-Unis ont présenté un projet de résolution destiné à être débattu au Conseil de sécurité de l'ONU pour envoyer une force internationale dans la bande de Gaza.

Most service companies start the same way: a great practitioner opens shop and sells their own time—hairdressers, trainers, dentists, therapists, lawyers. That works… until it doesn't. Quality depends on the founder; hiring “clones” leads to uneven results and micromanagement; SOPs multiply; and the business becomes a mini-bureaucracy. In this episode, I explain why the “be the best and do it all yourself” approach traps you—and how to scale without wrecking your brand.We walk through the five most common growth models (rent-a-chair, senior-junior-novice ladders, HQ services platform, affiliate/license, and “big fish + aux team”)—what they do well and where they stall. Then I lay out a practical move from practice to platform: productize outcomes (not just services), define roles and tiers, keep marketing/sales centralized, and build continuity revenue (memberships, cohorts, retail) while letting intrapreneurs grow under your brand. Finally, we add leverage backstage with AI—intake, plan drafting, comms, QA—so your team spends more time on human moments and outcomes.If you're stuck between being the best in town and working 70-hour weeks, this is your path out: a platform where good people can do great work—and your brand gets stronger every time they do.Connect with Chris Cooper:Website - https://businessisgood.com/

On today's Geek Freaks Headlines, we break down Square Enix's plan to have generative AI handle about 70% of quality assurance and debugging by the end of 2027, announced the same day employees in the company's Western business were told to expect layoffs across departments. We talk through what AI could realistically cover in testing, where it's likely to fail without human oversight, community reactions, and what this might mean for future Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts releases.

Sheena's three stage framework Activate, prove value safely • Define the problem, validate AI fit, run a small pilot. • Track accuracy thresholds and time saved. • Example, auto draft responses to repetitive compliance questionnaires from a vetted knowledge base. Amplify, spread what works • Connect adjacent teams, add light governance, share patterns. • Run cross team pilots and publish playbooks. • Example, connect support tickets, payments, compliance, partner success to detect issues proactively. Accelerate, institutionalize • Assign ownership, embed training, integrate tools, set ROI guardrails. • Roll out across channels and systems with quality gates. • Example, ad copy system owned by demand gen, content as QA, used across paid, email, social. Hot Takes from Sheena “Policy enables speed if you write it to unblock safe experiments.” “Stop memorizing tool steps, learn the concepts so they transfer.” “Solve the boring problem first, that is where AI pays for itself.” “If NRR belongs to someone, it belongs to everyone.” Resources & Links Sheena Miles on LinkedIn Women Defining AI, podcast and community n8n About FutureCraft Stay tuned for more insightful episodes from the FutureCraft podcast, where we continue to explore the evolving intersection of AI and GTM.

Caroline Gilbert — Director of Content & Editorial at Angi — joins Ross Hudgens to explore how one of the largest home-services brands is using AI to scale, transform, and optimize content operations. They discuss how Caroline's team doubled Angi's content library to 12,000+ articles, how AI helps maintain top-funnel visibility amid shifting search behaviors, and the nuanced balance between human expertise and generative automation. Caroline breaks down the three pillars of Angi's AI framework — generation, transformation, and operations — and how they've automated everything from brief creation to CMS ingestion while keeping a strong editorial voice. Plus: lessons learned from early AI missteps, real examples of disclosure testing, and how AI is reshaping both content creation and search behavior itself.

Send us a textTransformation rarely waits for a perfect plan. It arrives in a single click—the second you stop performing and start being present. We unpack that turning point for new and seasoned coaches alike: how confidence stops being a performance and becomes a grounded way of paying attention, how safety invites honesty, and why the deepest sessions happen when you let go of pressure and listen for what matters.We walk through the most common trap coaches face—confusing sounding professional with being effective—and show how presence creates a different kind of room. When clients feel seen rather than managed, they share the hard thing they've been avoiding. That's where real change begins. We also break down a pivotal mindset shift: the 50 percent rule. Your craft, questions, and steadiness matter deeply, and the client's willingness to engage matters just as much. Sharing responsibility doesn't dilute your impact; it frees you to deliver it.You'll hear a real story from our certification QA where a coach feared “getting it wrong.” Under the fear sat a belief that a client's results depend only on the coach. Challenging that belief opened the space for self-trust, cleaner questions, and a calmer presence. We talk about how to practice this in the wild: slow your pace, use paraphrase to anchor, ask one curiosity-led question at a time, and treat silence as a tool rather than a threat. As you rewire from performer to coach, sessions get deeper, clients feel safer, and breakthroughs show up more often—and sooner.If this resonates, subscribe, share with a coach who needs the reminder, and leave a quick review to tell us the moment that changed your practice.Interested in elevating your coaching skills and accelerating your clients' growth?

At the Crexendo UGM, Mark Vange, Founder and CEO of Autom8ly, sat down with Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, to discuss how Autom8ly is redefining the role of AI in business communications — not as a distant automation layer, but as a cooperative partner working alongside people and processes. “AI isn't a box you plug in — it's more like hiring a new employee,” said Vange. “Our philosophy is cooperative AI: AI that works with you, using the tools you already have, to make your people more productive.” At Crexendo UGM, Autom8ly showcased its new 10DLC Onboarding Assistant, an AI-driven system that dramatically simplifies the complicated process of SMS compliance registration. Today, service providers can spend four to six hours helping a customer fill out their 10DLC brand and campaign applications — only to see a large percentage rejected on first submission. Autom8ly's onboarding AI guides end users step-by-step through the forms, using context-aware prompts and compliance logic to ensure accuracy. “We've taken a four-hour ordeal and turned it into a five-minute review,” Vange explained. “We're seeing first-submission success rates move from 8 percent to 95 percent. It's saving time, money, and frustration for everyone.” Beyond compliance automation, Autom8ly is also building advanced voice agents, real-time call assistance tools, and AI-powered QA and transcription systems that help service providers and their customers operate more efficiently. These tools can listen to live customer calls and instantly surface the right information — such as product details or appointment policies — enabling agents to provide accurate, immediate responses without extensive training. The result is a growing suite of AI tools built specifically for MSPs, resellers, and NetSapiens partners, allowing them to bring intelligent automation to verticals such as automotive, hospitality, veterinary care, legal services, and retail. Autom8ly's business model is 100 percent channel-based, designed to empower partners to deliver AI-enabled solutions under their own brands. “Our focus is on helping those who already understand their markets and customers succeed with AI,” Vange said. “We don't sell direct — we help partners integrate AI into their existing business models and deliver real, measurable value.” To learn more about Autom8ly's cooperative AI solutions and partnership opportunities, visit autom8ly.com.

Glenn Carle is an American writer and former intelligence officer. He is the author of The Interrogator: An Education (2011), which describes his involvement in the interrogation of a man at the time believed to be one of the top members of al-Qa'ida. Johns Hopkins Magazine has found The Interrogator to be "unusually candid in its portrayal of the CIA's internal workings—and the toll the agency's moral grey zones take on its operatives".Glenn spent 20 years in clandestine field operations with the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). Carle retired as Deputy National Intelligence Officer for Transnational Threats from the National Intelligence Council. Carle has been critical of President Donald Trump, particularly after Trump began to disparage American intelligence agencies' assessment of Russian influence over the 2016 presidential election. He told Newsweek, in an article dated December 21, 2017, that he believed that President Donald Trump was "actually working directly for the Russians."Among other roles, Glenn is a Columnist for Newsweek Japan, providing commentary and analysis of international relations, Geo-strategic, and US political issues, and foreign policy and intelligence issues.----------LINKS:https://glenncarle.com/https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glenn_Carlehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/glenn-carle-2031706/https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0134b2dhttps://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Interrogator-An-Education/dp/B005UVQIAU----------Partner on this video: KYIV OF MINE Watch the trailer now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arJUcE1rxY0'Kyiv of Mine' is a documentary series about Ukraine's beautiful capital, Kyiv.

In this episode we spoke with Damien Wong, Senior Vice President for Asia Pacific at Tricentis, about how Agentic AI is redefining software quality assurance (QA) for enterprises navigating digital transformation. Damien shared his journey through 30 years in enterprise technology and explained how Tricentis is pioneering a future where autonomous testing drives both speed and reliability in software delivery. We explored why QA is fast becoming a board-level priority, how AI is removing the human bottlenecks in testing, and why quality is now existential in sectors like finance, healthcare, and government. Key Insights: • From manual to agentic: QA has evolved from manual testing to script-based automation, to codeless model-based testing, and now to agentic test automation. The equivalent of moving from driving a car to a fully autonomous vehicle. • AI-accelerated quality: Tricentis' agentic automation enables systems to autonomously create, execute, and adapt tests, dramatically accelerating release cycles and reducing risk from untested code. • Quality as a board concern: In Tricentis' Quality Transformation Report, two-thirds of organizations admitted to shipping untested code, making QA failures a C-suite and reputational risk rather than an IT issue. • Compliance through transparency: With acquisitions like SeaLights, Tricentis helps enterprises prove that every code change has been tested—critical for regulated sectors and global compliance. • Bring-your-own-AI flexibility: Tricentis' support for the Model Context Protocol (MCP) allows companies to plug in their own private AI models, ensuring data security and regulatory control while leveraging AI capabilities. • Empowering, not replacing, engineers: AI-driven testing shifts QA teams from repetitive test creation to strategic oversight, while tools like NeoLoad with natural language prompts make performance testing accessible to non-technical users. • Industry impact: From Zespri's self-healing ERP testing to preventing outages like Haribo's global gummy bear disruption, intelligent QA ensures business continuity and customer trust. • Future outlook: With 90% of code expected to be AI-generated within a year, the ability to test at AI speed will define competitive advantage in enterprise software delivery.

Syrie: le camp de jihadistes de Harem, un «mini-califat avec son propre émir, Omar Omsen»

Idleb, dans le nord du pays, théâtre la semaine dernière de violents affrontements entre l'armée syrienne et des combattants jihadistes étrangers, français notamment, retranchés à l'intérieur d'un camp, celui de Harem. Tensions qui illustrent le défi sécuritaire auquel sont confrontées les nouvelles autorités de Damas. Celui qui le dirige, une figure bien connue du jihadisme, Omar Omsen. Notre correspondante dans la région s'est rendue dans ce camp et l'a rencontré. On a commencé par prendre contact par Telegram avec Omar Omsen, le jour de l'assaut des forces gouvernementales syriennes, il nous a donné son feu vert. Donc, on a pris la route, direction Harem, au nord-ouest de la Syrie, où se trouve donc ce camp de jihadistes français. Et donc, vous tombez au bout d'une petite route sur les hauteurs d'une colline, sur ce camp adossé au mur qui sépare la Syrie de la Turquie. C'est un camp complètement enclavé où vivent depuis 2017 environ 70 Français – hommes, femmes et enfants –, le tout en quasi-autarcie, selon leurs propres lois, les lois de la charia, qu'ils appliquent de la manière la plus fondamentale. C'est une sorte de mini-califat, avec son propre émir, Omar Omsen donc, qui exerce une influence assez importante sur ses membres. Personne n'est autorisé à sortir. Les occupants peuvent aller faire quelques courses, mais ça se limite à ça. À l'intérieur, quand on rentre, c'est assez surprenant, ça ressemble plus à un petit village, voire un centre de vacances avec une mosquée, une école, de grands arbres et un terrain de football pour les enfants.  C'est donc ici autour de ce camp que des affrontements ont éclaté la semaine dernière entre jihadistes et forces gouvernementales. Que leur reprochent-elles ?  Les affrontements ont été assez violents avec l'intervention même de combattants ouzbeks qui sont venus prêter main forte aux jihadistes français. Les destructions sur place sont significatives. Dès qu'on arrive, on voit les lance-roquettes qui ont perforé le mur d'enceinte. Il y a partout des impacts de balles, au sol, des mines antichars disposées à l'entrée. On a rencontré cette Française qui nous a dit avoir très peur : « Vers 22h00, on était chez nous, on a commencé à entendre des tirs. Et les tirs sont devenus de plus en plus forts. On savait que c'étaient des armes lourdes et après, moi, j'ai trois filles, on s'est mises au sol tout simplement pour se protéger. » Donc, lors de cet assaut, c'est bien Omar Omsen lui-même qui était visé. Une source au sein du ministère de l'Intérieur nous a affirmé qu'ils étaient venus pour l'arrêter, lui, suite notamment à de nombreux crimes. Plus récemment, une mère a déposé plainte pour maltraitance et violence envers sa fille de 11 ans, évoquant également un mariage forcé. À lire aussiSyrie : le gouvernement conclut un accord avec les derniers jihadistes français retranchés dans un camp Que faut-il retenir de ce personnage, Omar Omsen, une figure du jihadisme considéré comme l'un des, si ce n'est « le » principal recruteur de combattants français en Syrie ? On parle d'environ 100 à 200 départs depuis 2012. Une enquête de nos confrères de Libération a d'ailleurs montré récemment que six Français ont été arrêtés par le Parquet national antiterroriste depuis décembre 2024 et la chute du régime de Bachar el-Assad. Pour retracer rapidement le parcours d'Omar Omsen, c'est un Franco-Sénégalais né à Nice. Il est parti en Syrie en 2013 pour combattre le régime de Bachar el-Assad. Il a fait rapidement allégeance au Front al-Nosra, donc la branche syrienne d'al-Qaïda, ce qui lui a valu d'être mis sous le coup d'un mandat d'arrêt de la justice française. Les États-Unis l'ont également qualifié de terroriste international en 2016.  Vous l'avez donc rencontré, il vous a parlé, longuement, et manifestement assez librement. Nous avons fait le choix, ici, à RFI, de ne pas diffuser les propos d'un homme recherché pour terrorisme et qui n'hésite pas à utiliser les médias comme un levier de communication. Ce n'est pas la première fois à vrai dire qu'Omar Omsen donne des interviews. Il a l'habitude de recevoir des journalistes, mais c'est vrai que d'ordinaire, il refuse d'être enregistré. Cette fois-ci, nous avons pu garder notre micro ouvert tout le long de l'interview. Alors, on peut penser qu'il avait envie de se servir de cette interview pour rectifier un moment de tension avec les autorités. Il a assuré plusieurs fois pendant notre entretien qu'il répondait désormais aux ordres du gouvernement syrien, alors que jusqu'ici, il tenait plutôt un discours contestataire. On peut aussi imaginer d'une manière assez égotique qu'il aime se donner de l'importance et qu'il avait envie de faire passer un message à la France.  La France, c'est toujours « la » cible privilégiée d'Omar Omsen.  Il affirme cette fois-ci que ce sont les autorités françaises qui ont fait pression sur le gouvernement syrien pour l'arrêter. Ce qui est évidemment une simple accusation, rien ne permet pour le moment de le confirmer. Il affirme que son groupe dérange, car il prétend faire venir des Français encore aujourd'hui en Syrie. Cela, il nous l'explique, il dit que des Français le contactent sur Telegram, il leur explique, il leur donne des indications pour les faire venir jusqu'à son camp. Et malgré l'accord de cessez-le-feu qui a été signé, il refuse toujours d'en sortir. Cela fait plus de trois ans. Il craint d'être extradé vers la France, de prendre 22 ans de prison ferme. C'est pour cela qu'il assure qu'il ne se rendra jamais.  À lire aussiSyrie : plus de 200 Français liés à l'EI toujours dans l'attente d'une solution

Most game studios think they have a talent problem. They don't. They have a structure problem.Chris Casanova spent 15+ years as a producer across Microsoft Xbox, Mojang (Minecraft), Relic Entertainment, Offworld Industries, and Hypixel Studios. He's watched talented teams fail repeatedly—not from lack of skill, but from organizational friction.Traditional studios organize around craft silos: design departments, engineering departments, art departments. Every feature requires handoffs. Every handoff loses fidelity. The result? Friction, misalignment, wasted iteration, and missed deadlines.Chris reveals the alternative: cross-functional outcome teams of 5-9 people who own their results from concept to ship.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━TIMESTAMPS━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━00:00 - Chris's background: Xbox, Mojang, Relic02:59 - Why he wrote "Structure Teams to Win"06:54 - The problem with craft-based teams08:17 - Outcome teams: The procedural worlds example18:32 - Why 5-9 people is optimal team size24:10 - Three organizational layers explained31:48 - When leaders resist change42:20 - The political reality of reorganization47:15 - Case study: 70-person AA co-op shooter58:07 - Advice for small teams (10 people)01:01:06 - How to connect with Chris━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━KEY INSIGHTS━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━THE PROBLEMS:- Design creates specs without context → over-engineered solutions- Art produces assets without validation → endless iteration- QA receives unclear requirements → irrelevant bug reports- Every handoff loses the original intentTHE SOLUTION:Cross-functional teams of 5-9 people with:→ Mixed disciplines (designers, engineers, artists, QA embedded)→ Clear mission and measurable KPIs→ Everything needed to own their outcome→ Minimal handoffs, maximum collaborationREAL EXAMPLE:Procedural worlds team mission: "Every world seed feels fresh, readable, performant"KPI: Biome novelty per minuteTeam: Generation engineers, world designers, environment artists, technical artists, QA━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━70-PERSON STUDIO STRUCTURE━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━Chris provides detailed org structure for AA co-op shooter:- Combat & Gameplay (15 people, 2 teams)- Progression & Economy (10 people, 2 teams)- Social & Co-Op (12 people, 2 teams)- Content & Live Ops (15 people, 2 teams)- World & Narrative (10 people, 1 team)- Technical Foundation (8 people, 1 team)Each team has 5-9 people with mixed disciplines focused on specific outcomes.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━THE HARD TRUTHS━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━Some leaders won't make the transition from managing 30 people to being on a team of 8.

The Dutch courts finally did something useful: they told Meta to quit force-feeding algorithmic slop to everyone, so Facebook and Instagram users might actually see posts from friends again—if they can remember who those are. Meanwhile, OpenAI's Sora 2 rollout is the kind of chaos that makes you wonder if the company replaced QA with a TikTok filter, as outrage videos flood the internet faster than you can say “deepfake meltdown.” Apple banned ICEBlock for being too effective while ICE now wants its own social media surveillance tool—one that OpenAI shut down when Chinese accounts tried to build it. California's hammering Tesla for its abysmal insurance claims handling, OpenAI is gobbling up chunks of AMD, and consultants got caught using ChatGPT to fake reports before proudly partnering with Anthropic, who just landed Deloitte as its latest “enterprise AI” victim. Elsewhere in this circus: a Florida teen asked ChatGPT how to kill his friend, Taylor Swift fans are furious her new promo video used AI slop (“too rich to be this cheap”), and Apple's “Find My” led cops to a mountain of smuggled iPhones.In Media Candy, Brian's stunned The Diplomat scored a third season, The Long Walk is being pitched as Stand By Me meets Squid Game, California finally bans loud streaming commercials, and Amazon censored Bond posters to remove guns because apparently irony is dead. AI “musicians” are signing record deals while Zelda Williams begs people to stop resurrecting her dad with deepfake garbage. In Apps & Doodads, Jony Ive's OpenAI gadget is delayed (good), Rivian insists we'll “appreciate” not having CarPlay (we won't), Spotify and ChatGPT are teaming up to read your soul through playlists, and Jason warns everyone that the Echo Show is basically an ad-spewing parasite. Apple's now facing a cybercrime probe in France for Siri's wiretapping habits, and if you're nostalgic for simpler times, ioquake3 will let you relive Quake III Arena glory on a modern rig.
