What if the thing making you sick has been hiding inside your walls the entire time - and every inspector who walked through missed it? In this episode of Integrative Cancer Solutions, Dr. K sits down with Brian Karr, mold investigator and founder of We Inspect, to break down why conventional mold inspections miss up to 90% of real problems, why air sampling is the wrong test for the job, and how a simple at-home dust test can tell you whether your home is actively driving what's happening in your body. Brian walks through the warning signs most people rationalize away, the two household patterns that almost always point to mold, and how his exposure mapping system helps people prioritize remediation without gutting their entire home. For anyone navigating a serious health condition, this conversation could be the missing piece nobody thought to look for.

Kia ora. Welcome to Thursday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand. I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz. Today we lead with news commodity markets are betting all-in that a deal between the US and Iran will unlock the Strait of Hormuz soon. An Iranian State TV report has triggered the optimism. (And even though the US has denied it.) More ships are transiting, but it is still only a fraction of 'normal'. However it is enough to drive the price of crude oil lower. But despite all that, financial markets seem to remain unconvinced, or at least they have turned defensive due to what lies ahead of a resolution. How well any deal will stick between the two parties who have become quite transactional remains to be seen. Certainly the US is unlikely to be trusted to maintain the deal by both Iran, and even its own traditional allies. Iran will be Iran, agreeing but preparing for another attack/fight. The one thing the US/Israeli thing has done is solidify the Iranian regime's position at home. It no longer has internal dissent or street challenges, and it will thank Trump for that. In the US, mortgage applications fell sharply last week, as US 30 year mortgage rates rose. Most of the fall is from the outsized retreat in refinance activity (-18%), although new purchase activity did dip as well. Those mortgage rates rose to their highest level since August 2025. Meanwhile, the ADP tracking of private payrolls showed the good levels continued last week, even if there was a small dip posted. And that is supported by factory survey data out from the Richmond Fed for the mid-Atlantic states area. New order levels rose notable. And firms expected growth in prices paid to moderate slightly over the next 12 months. But there was no improvement in the forward expectations, despite these improvements. Meanwhile the Dallas Fed services sector survey remained quite negative, even if less so in May than in April. But their uncertainty metric is notably less. There was a US Treasury 5yr Note auction overnight and that delivered a yield of 4.13% (4.18% high), up sharply from the 3.90% yield at the prior equivalent event a month ago. In Australia, consumer price inflation came in lower than most analysts were expecting for Aril. It rose 4.2% from a year ago, lower than the March 4.6%, and lower than the expected 4.4%. From March, CPI prices rose +0.4%, also lower in the same way. A key reason is that fuel prices fell -7.0% from March to April, after rising 33% in the previous month. The fall this month includes the halving of the fuel excise on 1 April. Fuel prices are still +23.5% higher than in February and before the impact of the Middle East conflict. Apart from fuel, outsized rises were recorded for 'housing' (+6.3%) and 'clothing' (+5.9%). The main contributors to the annual housing rise were Electricity (+22.5%), New dwellings (+4.7%) and Rents (+3.5%). And staying in Australia, Westpac has been hit with a AU$26 mln civil penalty for not dealing with clients who were struggling financially in a proper way. Remediation of all costs to those clients was AU$1.7 mln. The UST 10yr yield is now just on 4.48%, down -1 bp from this time yesterday. The price of gold will start today down another -US$49 at US$4450/oz. Silver is down -US$1.50 at just under US$74.50/oz. Oil prices have fallen -US$4.50 to just on US$89.50/bbl in the US, while the international Brent price is now at US$95/bbl. The Kiwi dollar is up +60 bps from yesterday at this time at 58.9 USc. Against the Aussie we are up +110 bps at 82.6 AUc. Against the euro we are up +50 bps at just under 50.7 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just under 62.4 which is up +60 bps from yesterday. The bitcoin price starts today at US$74,765 and down -1.5% from this time yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been modest at just on +/- 1.0%. Join us later today for full coverage of the 2026 Budget release, an election budget of course. You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz. Kia ora. I'm David Chaston and we'll do this again tomorrow.
In this episode, Michael Roscoe, PhD, PA-C, president of the PA Education Association, is joined by Lachan Siebenmorgen, PhD, MPAS, PA-C, Director of Assessment and Assistant Professor, and Audra Wilson, DMSc, M.S., PA-C, Director of Didactic Education, Associate Medical Director, both from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, for a conversation about rethinking remediation in accelerated PA programs. They discuss moving beyond traditional retesting and memorization toward a more student-centered approach focused on reflection, error analysis, exam mapping, and individualized learning plans. The conversation explores how their remediation framework differentiates support based on student performance, incorporates collaboration with course directors and learning specialists, and adapts to the unique challenges of the clinical year, including timing and distance. They also share how the model has evolved over five years, leading to improved PANCE outcomes, fewer end-of-rotation remediations, stronger preceptor evaluations, and reduced faculty workload through phased implementation and automation.

Today’s headline news for Canadian IT solution providers: SonicWall is making its Gen 8 security platform available in virtualized environments for the first time with the launch of the NSv XS, a subscription-based virtual firewall purpose-built for MSPs and MSSPs delivering managed security to small and distributed environments. The NSv XS supports VMware ESXi, Hyper-V, KVM, AWS, Azure, and Proxmox and ships in three service tiers designed around recurring revenue models. The top tier adds co-managed security from SonicWall’s SonicSentry NOC team plus embedded cyber warranty coverage through Cysurance. SonicWall’s 2026 Cyber Protect Report found high and medium severity attacks surged 20.8% last year, and with 52% of enterprises now running most of their infrastructure in the cloud, the NSv XS is explicitly designed to close that gap. Huntress and specialty insurance firm Acrisure have launched a new cyber insurance program offering eligible organizations access to Cyber or Tech E&O policies with no deductible and a streamlined application process. Organizations running qualifying Huntress Managed EDR and ITDR solutions may benefit from simplified underwriting – demonstrating active security posture translates to better insurance terms. The two companies are positioning the program as a response to growing AI-driven cyber threats and an alternative to the traditionally complex process of securing adequate cyber coverage. Intruder has released its 2026 Attack Surface Management Index, based on anonymized data from 3,000 customers. The headline number: 26% of organizations have exposed MySQL databases, a known target for ransomware and data extortion. Midmarket companies in the 5,000-10,000 employee range take an average of 56 days to remediate exposures – nearly four times slower than small enterprises. Banks closed gaps in an average of 11 days; insurance and pharma firms averaged more than 40. The report frames this against the emergence of autonomous AI models capable of independently discovering zero-day vulnerabilities – which makes a 56-day remediation window a meaningful risk. ThreatDown has launched identity threat detection and response for MSPs, adding credential-based attack detection to its managed security stack. ITDR joins ThreatDown‘s existing endpoint protection capabilities as attackers increasingly target identity infrastructure rather than devices directly. Cycode has announced new capabilities for AI-driven development, declaring “shift left is dead” and repositioning its application security platform around the AI development lifecycle. The move reflects a broader rethinking of where security fits as AI-generated code accelerates development velocity and introduces new risk vectors. Toronto-based MSP roll-up AYCE Capital has acquired a cybersecurity advisory firm to anchor a portfolio-wide center of excellence in vCISO and managed security operations. The move signals a push to build differentiated security capabilities across its MSP portfolio rather than sourcing them piecemeal. MSPAlliance has launched new service lines under its Cyber Verify program, expanding the compliance and assurance framework available to managed service providers. The additions give MSPs more structured pathways to demonstrate security and operational maturity to enterprise and regulated-industry clients. Read Full Transcript Welcome to The Buzz from ChannelBuzz.ca, I’m Robert Dutt, today is Wednesday, May 13, 2026, and here’s what’s happening in the channel today. SonicWall yesterday announced the NSv XS, a new virtual firewall extending its Gen 8 platform to cloud environments, with managed service providers and MSSPs as the primary target. The product allows partners to deploy firewall security wherever customer workloads run – public cloud, private cloud, branch offices, and distributed infrastructure – under a management model designed for multi-tenant operations. According to SonicWall, the NSv XS carries the same Gen 8 security engine found in its physical appliances into a lightweight virtual form factor, which the company says closes a growing gap as customer environments increasingly span both physical and cloud boundaries that legacy appliances can’t follow. The announcement is a practical one for the channel: a cloud-native firewall with the Gen 8 engine that can be managed centrally simplifies both the sales conversation around security coverage and the operational overhead of delivering it across heterogeneous customer environments. Also yesterday, Huntress announced a partnership with insurance firm Acrisure to connect cybersecurity posture directly to cyber insurance outcomes for eligible organizations. Under the program, customers running the Huntress managed security platform can access Cyber and Tech Errors and Omissions policies through Acrisure with no deductible – with policy terms tied to the customer’s verified security posture rather than a generic underwriting baseline. According to Huntress, the program is built on the premise that organizations that have actually deployed layered security controls should not be underwritten at the same rates as those that haven’t. The arrangement is worth watching for solution providers who have been looking for cyber insurance integrations that go beyond co-marketing – this one appears to operationalize the connection between managed security delivery and insurance terms in a way that could strengthen both the MSP’s value proposition and the client’s risk profile. Intruder rounded out a busy Tuesday by releasing its 2026 Attack Surface Management Index, drawing on anonymized data from 3,000 organizations to assess how quickly companies are identifying and closing their exposed attack surfaces. The headline finding: more than one in four organizations still have MySQL databases exposed and accessible from the internet – a foundational configuration risk that the report says reflects a broader struggle to maintain visibility over sprawling and distributed infrastructure. According to Intruder, the data shows that human remediation is falling further behind the pace of automated exploitation, a trend the company calls the “Mythos Era” – a period in which attacker tooling has measurably outpaced defender workflows. The report gives solution providers a concrete, data-backed framework to bring into client conversations, particularly for customers still relying on point-in-time scanning rather than continuous monitoring. In Brief – ThreatDown yesterday launched an identity threat detection and response platform, extending its security stack to cover credential-based attacks across Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, and Active Directory. Cycode is declaring “shift left is dead,” releasing new agentic development lifecycle security capabilities designed to protect AI-driven software pipelines from code generation through deployment. Toronto-based AYCE Capital yesterday announced the acquisition of a cybersecurity advisory firm to anchor a portfolio-wide security center of excellence. MSPAlliance last week added Service Lines to its Cyber Verify platform, letting MSPs map audited controls directly to the services they deliver for cleaner, client-ready compliance reporting. Full details and links in the show notes or the blog post. Later today on In The Channel, we’re sitting down with Steve Petryschuk from Auvik to dig into their 2026 IT Trends Report and what the data reveals about the gap between AI ambition and AI maturity in managed services. And if you haven’t heard it yet, yesterday’s episode is a good one – Joel Abramson from Top Down Ventures joins me to discuss the close of their C$38 million MSP-focused founders fund and why they believe managed service providers are the primary delivery vehicle for AI to the small and mid-market. That’s how we’re seeing the headlines today. I’m Robert Dutt for ChannelBuzz.ca, thanks for listening. Have a great day.
Episode 2 of Rethinking EHS, Season 3 focuses on the rapid rise of emerging contaminants and their impact on environmental and human health. Advances in scientific research are revealing hidden risks from widely used chemicals, bringing emerging contaminants like 6PPD into focus as they transform into harmful byproducts, while growing public awareness, especially around PFAS “forever chemicals”, is accelerating regulatory and scientific action, with microplastics quickly gaining similar attention. At the same time, organisations face challenges navigating fragmented and evolving regulations, particularly in the US, making risk management complex. Ultimately, the episode underscores the need for organisations to proactively understand and manage their risks now, while individuals can contribute by reducing their everyday environmental impact. *** Guest quotes: Ivy Ng: “Advances in science are revealing previously unknown threats to the environment and human health.” Jack Sheldon: “There's a lot to build on. We have a baseline of information, but still many unknowns when dealing with emerging contaminants.” *** Timestamps: 00:00:00 – Introduction & overview of emerging contaminants 00:01:27 – What are emerging contaminants? 00:04:05 – Deep dive into 6PPD and its environmental impact 00:08:34 – PFAS vs microplastics: public awareness and regulation 00:12:10 – Human health risks and uncertainties 00:13:24 – How organisations are responding to PFAS 00:18:17 – Solutions: stormwater management and treatment systems 00:21:34 – Future outlook for PFAS and emerging contaminants 00:23:48 – Safer alternatives and regulatory developments 00:28:37 – Key actions for organisations and individuals 00:31:23 – Closing reflections *** Sponsor Rethinking EHS is brought to you by the Inogen Alliance.

Send us Fan MailWhat if your mold inspection came back “normal,” but your home was still making you sick?In this episode of Never Been Sicker, Michael Rubino sits down with Brian Karr, co-founder of We Inspect, to break down why traditional mold inspections often miss the real source of exposure. Brian shares his personal story of becoming sick after a water leak in his apartment, only to discover that a standard air test missed the bigger problem hiding inside the walls.Together, Michael and Brian explain why air samples alone can create false confidence, why dust testing matters, and how exposure mapping helps identify where contamination is coming from, how it moves through the home, and how it reaches your breathing zone.They also discuss why comprehensive inspections are especially important for chronically ill or hypersensitive individuals, how remediation plans should be prioritized, and why the right team matters when trying to create a healthier home.Timestamps00:00 Introduction and Background04:51 The Importance of Experience in Mold Inspection10:00 Understanding Air Quality Testing14:53 The Flaws in Traditional Air Testing Methods19:49 Mapping Exposure and Personalized Recovery Plans26:10 Understanding Testing Methodologies29:12 Functional Medicine and Its Application32:02 The Importance of Comprehensive Testing35:06 The Role of Remediation in Health39:19 Building a Supportive Health Team42:40 The Journey to Meaningful Work45:01 Resources for Mold Testing and Awareness-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Follow Brian:
The Chopping Block crew and guest Monet Supply break down the $200M Kelp DAO bridge exploit, finger-pointing between LayerZero, Kelp DAO, and Aave, the wild “reverse hack” Arbitrum bailout, and what it all means for DeFi lending protocol risk, L2 trust, and the future of socialized losses in crypto. Welcome to The Chopping Block — where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. This week, we're joined by Monet Supply, DeFi governance OG and current Spark brain, for a front-row seat to crypto's hack-of-the-week: the $200M “Kelp DAO—LayerZero—Aave” debacle. If you thought DeFi risk was just about liquidations, buckle up. The team untangles the hack mechanics, the musical chairs of collateral across bridges and lending markets, and—most importantly—the prime time blame game: is it LayerZero's fault for running a single-signer bridge, or did Kelp DAO or Aave drop the ball? We dive deep into the “socialized losses” mess facing Aave depositors (especially on L2s), unpack Arbitrum's extraordinary move to confiscate coins back from North Korea (yes, really), and debate whether rollups can—or should—aspire to Ethereum's censorship resistance. Finally, the squad discusses concrete remediation: rate limits, portfolio triage on risky collaterals, and the meta-game of DeFi crisis response. If you want the blunt, unfiltered, and occasionally spicy take on DeFi's latest chaos, let's get into it.

Dr. Alicia Reiser, OTD, MS OTR/L is an occupational therapist with over 24 years of experience and the owner of A Rise Above Occupational Therapy Services in the Lehigh Valley, PA. She earned her clinical doctorate from Salus University (Drexel University) with a specialization in vision remediation. An active scholar and adjunct faculty at Drexel, Dr. Reiser bridges the gap between neurological rehabilitation, vision therapy, concussion recovery, ADHD care, and nervous system regulation. She is the co-owner of NeurOT Consulting and co-author of 100 Visually Loaded Activities and Occupations.In this episode, Dr. Alicia Reiser explains the critical but often overlooked connection between vision and the brain following a concussion. She discusses how visual inefficiencies (such as convergence insufficiency, double vision, and blurry vision) can mimic or worsen ADHD symptoms, hinder recovery, and cause chronic symptoms like headaches and dizziness. Dr. Reiser highlights the unique role of Occupational Therapy in vision remediation, the importance of interdisciplinary care with neuro-optometrists, and her work to establish a national Community of Practice within AOTA to standardize vision rehabilitation.

The episode identifies a structural shift in the MSP business model: security is no longer a discrete service or line item but has become the organizing principle for operations and accountability. This is driven by an industry-wide trend toward increased automation in both attack and defense, as well as a shift in liability and accountability from vendors to the MSPs themselves. Companies such as Acronis and Anthropic are highlighted for introducing tools that increase the rate and automation of threat discovery, while research and market analysis by Watchguard and Jay McBain indicate that the capacity to remediate, rather than discover, security threats now forms the operational bottleneck. The most consequential development referenced is the acceleration of security automation and vulnerability discovery, specifically through Anthropic's Project Glasswing and Watchguard's reporting of a 1,500% surge in new endpoint malware variants. Anthropic's approach—limiting broad release of its model due to potential misuse for rapid exploitation—was supported by partnerships with cloud and technology firms like AWS, Apple, Google, and Microsoft, backed by up to $100 million in usage credits. Watchguard's data demonstrates that while threat discovery is increasing, the rate of remediation has not kept pace, creating a supply-demand imbalance in skilled security operations. Further reinforcing this trend, Acronis has promoted a 24x7x365 Managed Detection and Response (MDR) tool positioned to let MSPs deliver always-on monitoring without managing a full security operations center. Meanwhile, broader channel and delivery ecosystem analysis by Jay McBain emphasizes that partners, rather than platform vendors, bear primary responsibility for steady-state customer environments. This confluence of developments shifts the value—and the risk—onto the operational capabilities and governance structures of MSPs. Other referenced solutions, such as Zero Networks' microsegmentation, underscore that containing damage, not just preventing access, is a new business imperative. The operational implication for MSPs and IT providers is a shift from measuring security by tools deployed to measuring and pricing security by demonstrated remediation throughput. Service contracts will need to specify not only what solutions are deployed, but also explicit commitments on response times, closure rates, and SLA-backed operating motions. A lack of clear remediation commitments raises unpriced liability as discovery rates outpace closure capacity. Providers are encouraged to separate vulnerability discovery reporting from remediation progress, build reporting layers that highlight closure rates, and reconsider flat-fee models that do not account for increased operational workloads and accountability risks. 00:00 Closure Is Finite 04:10 Close the Gap 06:32 Govern or Absorb 08:57 Why Do We Care?

Parasites are typically framed as invaders. Organisms to fear, eliminate, and cleanse from the body. That assumption runs deep, not only in conventional medicine, but increasingly in alternative health as well.In this conversation, Liev Dalton of Beyond Terrain presents a very different interpretation.Drawing from a wide range of literature, including human ingestion studies and ecological research, he argues that the presence of parasites does not equate to causation of disease. Across these observations, a consistent pattern emerges: symptoms arise in the context of compromised terrain – often shaped by toxicity, deficiency, or prior intervention – and not simply from exposure to an organism.From there, the discussion expands into the potential role of parasites as participants in bioremediation – organisms that may accumulate, transform, or respond to toxicity rather than initiate pathology. This perspective reframes not only parasites, but the broader relationship between the body and the microbial world.The conversation also examines the growing popularity of parasite cleanses, the cyclical nature of symptom suppression, and the unintended consequences of aggressive protocols that fail to address underlying terrain and root cause.Along the way, the discussion touches on diagnostics, asymptomatic carriers, environmental parallels, and the limitations of applying a pathogen-based model to complex biological systems.At its core, this episode returns to a central Terrain principle: the condition of the organism determines the outcome. Presence is not proof of cause. And attempts to control or eliminate symptoms without addressing terrain often lead to repetition rather than resolution.Learn more about Liev and his work at https://beyondterrain.com/ and follow him on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/beyond.terrain/ and on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCr-AvsCDiW8AbIjtvIW-HZQ,Support Terrain Theory on Patreon!

The cybersecurity industry is good at finding problems. What it has struggled with -- for decades -- is fixing them. Sunil Gottumukkala, CEO and Co-Founder of Averlon, calls this the exposure window: the gap between when a vulnerability is discovered and when it is actually resolved. That gap is where real risk lives, and closing it is the founding mission of Averlon. Speaking on location at RSAC Conference 2026, Gottumukkala draws on his experience as a security executive at Salesforce to explain why even the most well-resourced teams fall behind. More code, more acquisitions, and more attack surface means more findings -- but the capacity to remediate does not scale at the same rate. The answer, he argues, is not more people. It is better systems. Averlon approaches the problem by ingesting findings from across a customer's security stack, applying AI-driven analysis to determine what is actually exploitable in that specific environment, and eliminating noise. From there, rather than generating a ticket, the platform generates a fix -- actual code changes for application vulnerabilities, or compensating controls for situations requiring more time. The goal is not to manage vulnerabilities. It is to eliminate them. This is a Brand Highlight.

What's the best tool for making PDFs accessible? It's the question we get constantly, and the honest answer might surprise you. There isn't one. In this episode of Chax Chat, Chad and Dax break down how the "best" accessibility tool depends entirely on your starting point. Are you working in Word, InDesign, PowerPoint, Google Docs, or Canva? Do you have a tagged PDF, an untagged PDF, or a scanned document? Each scenario changes the strategy. We discuss why "born accessible" is always better than heavy remediation, when Adobe's auto-tagging can actually help, why tools like MadeToTag and Access Word continue to be game changers, and how platforms like CommonLook, PDFix, PREP, and Grackle fit into the workflow. We also talk about handling scanned PDFs, the realities of screen reader testing, and why bookmarks aren't the navigation solution many people think they are. If you've ever felt overwhelmed trying to choose the right accessibility tool, this episode will help you stop chasing a magic solution and start making smarter decisions based on context. Every other week, we unravel accessibility so you can build more inclusive, compliant, and practical documents.

The dominant structural shift identified centers on liability allocation and governance in the context of agentic AI deployment across IT and managed services. The episode underscores how automation is moving beyond content generation to direct operational and security actions, referencing technology from OpenAI (GPT-5.3 Instant), Anthropic (Claude Marketplace), Google Workspace CLI, Microsoft's SharePoint AI features, and Hexnode's Genie AI. Vendors are embedding AI deeper into productivity and endpoint infrastructure, increasing both operational efficiency and the risk footprint—making governance, reliability, and accountability the new competitive differentiators. The most consequential development highlighted is the industry-wide disconnect between rapid AI remediation adoption and lagging governance. According to Omdia, 88% of organizations are using AI-driven remediation, but only 44% have implemented it for most exposure types, and nearly half (49%) of security teams lack trust in these systems. IBM data shows that 63% of organizations lack formal AI incident response policies, meaning deployment often outpaces the development of auditability and risk management. This creates a landscape where automated decisions are taken at scale without clear accountability structures or incident protocols. Supporting developments reinforce these governance and risk concerns. Reports of cognitive fatigue—termed “AI brain fry”—affecting over 14% of users (Boston Consulting Group/UC Riverside) and a 39% increase in error rates among those affected, point to compounding human and system risk when automation outpaces oversight. Market analysis from Accenture, Wharton, and the Dallas Fed notes that AI has shifted skill demand, displaced younger tech workers, and pressured traditional fixed-fee business models. Meanwhile, vendors are migrating from predictable per-seat pricing to variable token-based consumption, passing operational uncertainty onto MSPs and their clients. For MSPs, IT service providers, and technology leaders, the practical implications are clear. Failure to implement explicit governance, contract clauses, and incident protocols exposes providers to unpredictable liability. Passing through ungoverned consumption costs under fixed-contracts damages margins as AI use expands. The increasing cognitive load on staff supervising partially trusted automation further compounds operational risk. As the pricing model shifts, providers must negotiate new contract terms, institute AI incident playbooks, audit tool autonomy, and manage the blast radius of AI with the same rigor as legacy security controls. 00:00 Platform Land Grab 03:56 Who Owns Failure 07:27 Skills Over Titles 09:52 Why Do We Care?

AI models are powerful, but they don't forget. And that's a problem.They hallucinate. They inherit bias. They absorb sensitive data. And once they're trained, fixing those issues is painfully expensive. Retraining takes weeks and maybe tens of millions of dollars. And any guardrails the AI company puts up are brittle.What if you could perform surgery on the model itself?In this episode of TechFirst, John Koetsier sits down with Ben Luria, co-founder of Hirundo, to explore machine unlearning, a new approach that selectively removes unwanted data, behaviors, and vulnerabilities from trained AI systems.Hirundo claims it can:• Cut hallucinations in half• Massively reduce bias• Reduce successful prompt injection attacks by over 90%• Do it in under an hour on a single GPU• Preserve benchmark performanceInstead of adding more guardrails, machine unlearning works inside the model, identifying problematic weights, isolating behavioral vectors, and surgically removing risks without degrading quality.If AI is going mainstream in enterprises, it needs a remediation layer. Is machine unlearning the missing piece?⸻GuestBen LuriaCo-Founder, HirundoNhirhttps://www.hirundo.io⸻Topics Covered• Why AI models “can't forget”• The difference between hallucinations and inaccuracies• Why guardrails aren't enough• How prompt injection works — and how to reduce it• Removing PII and noncompliant training data• AI security at the model level• Why machine unlearning could become standard by 2030⸻If you're building, deploying, or investing in AI, this is a conversation you can't miss.

We are joined in this episode by Stacey Shubitz, K-6 literacy consultant, a former elementary school teacher, and the co-founder of the Two Writing Teachers blog and podcast. Her forthcoming book, Make the School System Work for Your Child with Disabilities: Empowering Kids for the Future, empowers parents to navigate the special education system. In this episode, we talk openly about what it really takes to support a child with learning challenges in today's school system. Drawing from decades of experience on both sides of the table, Stacey shares why she wrote Make the School System Work for Your Child with Disabilities and what she wishes someone had told her when she was first trying to make sense of evaluations, IEP meetings, and endless paperwork. Our conversation centers on some of the practical mindset shifts that can help change everything for families, with Stacey explaining why leading with a child's strengths and not just their needs is so important for confidence and motivation. She also addresses disability language head-on, discussing why it is that naming disability isn't limiting but instead opens doors to services, legal protections, and access that families often don't realize they're entitled to. Throughout the episode, we highlight how knowledge of data, timelines, rights, and documentation can shift the power dynamic and help parents advocate more effectively. We offer some concrete guidance on when to push for evaluations, why waiting too long can do a lot of harm, and how to ask for progress data without feeling confrontational. Stacey also shares what makes IEP meetings feel collaborative instead of adversarial, from simple preparation strategies to small human touches that ease tension. Communication comes up again and again: how approaching teachers with curiosity, clarity, and respect can lead to better outcomes for kids! Stacey also speaks candidly about burnout, emotional exhaustion, and why joy isn't optional but protective. This conversation offers reassurance, realism, and a clear-eyed look at how parents can show up informed, empowered, and grounded while advocating for their children.
