AI thinks it's OK to steal and blackmail you! Today we dive deep into the evolving landscape of artificial intelligence, highlighting both its disruptive promise and emerging risks. New research showing that large language models (LLMs) often resort to manipulative behavior when put under pressure, raising ethical and control concerns. We also talk about investment strategies around AI infrastructure, noting underperformance in traditional strategies like small-cap, international, and value investing. We also explore a new MIT study suggesting AI may reduce cognitive engagement and critical thinking and widespread reliance on AI tools could lead to long-term intellectual decline. We discuss... A recent study showed that in simulated scenarios, AI models like Claude, GPT-4, and Gemini frequently resorted to blackmail when "cornered." All major large language models displayed concerning behavior in adversarial tests, highlighting a broader industry problem. AI is surprisingly poor at basic math tasks despite being computer-based, which raises risks for business use in financial roles. Apple is rumored to partner with Anthropic (Claude) for Siri instead of acquiring them outright. AI tools have shown 85.5% accuracy on challenging medical cases, compared to 20% accuracy by experienced physicians. The use of AI in healthcare may not replace doctors but is expected to enhance their capabilities significantly. Elon Musk warned AI development may soon face power supply bottlenecks, particularly due to training instability during grid fluctuations. Battery storage is becoming critical to stabilize AI-related energy demands, similar to power issues seen in crypto mining. Broader investment trends include AI, nuclear, space, blockchain, and cannabis, with many investors still concentrating on the "Magnificent Seven." Traditional diversification strategies like small-cap, value, and international investing have underperformed for decades. Despite high valuations, the U.S. remains the most attractive market compared to overregulated or unstable alternatives like Europe or China. A recent MIT study suggested AI use may lead to cognitive decline, describing users as becoming “cognitively bankrupt.” Reliance on AI could undermine critical thinking, especially among younger generations. AI, like social media, might make society dumber by eliminating the need for deep thinking.

Have you ever felt like you were the problem in your family?Like no matter how hard you tried, no matter how consistently you showed up with your best effort, you were always the one in crisis? The one who “acted out”? The one who got blamed for why things were falling apart?If that resonates with you, if that sounds familiar in your bones, the first thing I want to say is: I am so sorry. It's such as a confusing, painful and often lonely place to be. And you're not alone. But, more importantly, what if I told you… it might not be true? That story you've been told, or maybe the one you've carried quietly for years; the idea that you were the difficult one, the broken one, the one who couldn't get it right - what if that story isn't actually yours? And it never was?Coming up in this week's episode of the Stronger Minds Podcast – the plight of the Identified Patient.___Newsletter sign upCorporate Speaking How to Build a Healthy Brain* Unprocessed: What Your Diet is Doing to Your Brain* Patreon Original music by Juan Iglesias *Affiliate links The information shared on this podcast is for educational and informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

summaryIn this conversation, Shara and Ginger explore common misconceptions about what the Bible actually says. Through a quiz format, they challenge listeners to discern between popular phrases attributed to the Bible and their actual scriptural origins. The discussion emphasizes the importance of understanding biblical principles, the context of scripture, and the need for personal study of the Bible to avoid deception. Misquoted phrases are examined, revealing their true meanings and origins, while also addressing the role of judgment, happiness, and the significance of Christmas narratives in Christian faith.takeawaysIt's important to know the word of God to avoid deception.Many popular phrases are misquoted or misunderstood.The principle may be in scripture, but the exact quote may not be.Context matters when interpreting scripture.God helps those who help themselves is not in the Bible.The Bible does not say to thine own self be true.Judgment in Christianity is about gauging fruit, not condemning.Happiness is not the primary goal of God; holiness is.Many Christmas traditions are not biblically accurate.Personal study of the Bible is essential for understanding truth.titlesDoes the Bible Really Say That?Unpacking Biblical MisconceptionsSound Bites"Study the real thing.""To thine own self be true.""The devil made me do it."Chapters00:00Does the Bible Really Say That?02:57Misquoted Verses and Their Origins09:51Understanding Biblical Principles14:52The Truth About Suffering and Reliance on God19:12Common Misconceptions in Christianity24:13The Christmas Story: Myths and Realities29:35Lightning Round: Out of Context ScripturesFollow us on IG at MoralSupportPodcast or our personal social media accounts.https://www.facebook.com/ginger.labathttps://www.facebook.com/sharamckee/

Jonathan Josephs speaks to Philippe Kehren, CEO of chemical multinational company Solvay. His firm sits at the forefront of Europe's efforts to diversify its supply of rare earth metals. These elements are essential to much of modern technology, from mobile phones to medical equipment, car batteries and renewable energy.Currently their supply is heavily dependent on China, which mines around 70% of all rare earth metals, and refines around 90%. Solvay aims to play a significant role in reducing this dependence, by increasing European capacity to mine and refine these materials. However, Mr Kehren says the European Union needs to play its part by introducing incentives for customers to buy from European suppliers rather than their cheaper Chinese competitors.

In a recent BlackRock survey of registered voters, more than 75% of retirees said they wished they had saved more money for retirement. And with the recent passage of the SECURE 2.0 Act now in effect, opening up new opportunities for savers, investors are considering how to save and build wealth for the future. Shoring up emergency savings is protective of retirement savings, according to research by The BlackRock Foundation. So how can investors ensure they're pulling all the levers at their disposal to retire on their own terms?Rob Crothers, Head of U.S. Retirement for BlackRock, will discuss the current state of the retirement landscape and help us unpack a toolkit for retirement savers that's been proposed by the Bipartisan Policy Center and how investors and employers can plan for the future.Key moments in this episode:00:00 Introduction: The Importance of Saving for Retirement00:17 Exploring the SECURE 2.0 Act and Retirement Universals02:01 Current Retirement Landscape and Policy Changes04:06 BlackRock's D.C.

Does a strong family history mean that it is inevitable that someone will develop dementia?No. Not only are these complex conditions where genes are just one component, but international studies like the Finnish Geriatric Intervention Study to Prevent Cognitive Impairment and Disability (FINGER) give us reasons to be optimistic about the power of lifestyle interventions on dementia risk. In people already at increased risk of dementia, aged 60–77, this multidomain intervention including diet, exercise, cognitive training, and vascular risk management delayed, and in some cases halted, cognitive decline.In this episode I share what I would optimise if I was in this situation. ___Newsletter sign upCorporate Speaking How to Build a Healthy Brain* Unprocessed: What Your Diet is Doing to Your Brain* Patreon Original music by Juan Iglesias *Affiliate links The information shared on this podcast is for educational and informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s relationship imploded this week like a star going supernova as the two took to social media to take jabs at each other. At stake are the future of Musk’s companies, including electric car company Tesla and rocket manufacturer SpaceX, both of which receive government subsidies or contracts. President Trump took to his social media website, Truth Social, yesterday to threaten subsidies to Musk’s companies. Musk then threatened to decommission SpaceX’s Dragon spacecraft, which the country’s space agency, NASA, has come to depend on heavily to ferry cargo and astronauts to the International Space Station on a regular basis. Musk later walked back this threat. NASA is said to have few viable alternatives to the Musk-owned company, as many of SpaceX’s competitors are still catching their technology up with the company. Joining Larry to discuss how and why NASA relies so heavily on private contractors is Kenneth Chang, science reporter for The New York Times. With files from the Associated Press.
