In this week's MBA Admissions podcast we began by discussing some of the recent activity on LiveWire, which is now becoming quieter as we move into the summer season. We then continued our discussion on the recent U.S. Government decisions as they pertain to international MBA students; Harvard appears to have won a recent decision in their fight with the U.S. Government in terms of being able to enroll international students.. Graham highlighted Clear Admit's summer series of webinars, which focuses on top MBA programs' admissions essays, which will be attended by more than 20 of the top MBA programs. The first event in the series includes Berkeley / Haas, Cornell / Johnson, Dartmouth / Tuck, Duke / Fuqua and UPenn / Wharton. Signups are here: https://bit.ly/mbaessay0725. Graham then noted two admissions tips; the first focuses on the importance of post MBA career goals, the second, part of Clear Admit's “Myth Busters” series, discusses the differences between targeting Round 1 and Round 2.. We continue our series of Adcom Q&As, which is a yearly series where we interview the admissions leaders at all the top MBA programs; this week we have Q&As from NYU / Stern and Georgetown / McDonough.. Finally, Graham highlighted a Real Humans alumni spotlight focusing on an alum from IESE working at PwC.. For this week, for the candidate profile review portion of the show, Alex selected three ApplyWire entries:. This week's first MBA admissions candidate has a 329 GRE score and a 3.4 GPA. They are working in the biotech sector, and plan to remain in that sector, post MBA. They want to do investment banking in the short term.. This week's second MBA candidate has a 3.86 GPA but has not taken the GMAT or GRE yet. They are also focused on the health care sector.. The final MBA candidate is from South Korea and has 10 years of experience in the tech sector, focusing on AI and robotics. They have a 685 GMAT score. This episode was recorded in Kansas City, Missouri and Cornwall, England. It was produced and engineered by the fabulous Dennis Crowley in Philadelphia, USA.

In this episode of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast, I, Stewart Alsop, sit down with returning guest Brian Ahuja to explore a thought-provoking idea he's been stewing on—could we one day build a robot capable of true partner dancing? From the biomechanics of salsa to the possibilities of AI embodiment, we unpack what it would take to engineer fluid, responsive movement and how that intersects with everything from artificial muscles to the intimacy of tactile feedback. We also touch on Brian's long-term vision for a potential lab or foundation to tackle this challenge. You can follow Brian and future developments on Twitter @brianahuja.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 – Brian Ahuja returns to discuss AI embodiment, sparked by his experience in ballroom dance and curiosity about translating physical intelligence into robotics.05:00 – They explore robotics in partner dancing, touching on the difference between choreographed motion and improvisational, responsive movement.10:00 – Brian breaks down human biomechanics, emphasizing that hip motion in dances like salsa originates from knees and feet—not the hips directly.15:00 – The conversation shifts to balance, proprioception, and ocular reflexes, linking them to movement stability in dance.20:00 – They compare robot vs. human movement, noting robots' jerky motions and the absence of muscle-based initiation.25:00 – The need for haptic feedback is discussed, with Brian detailing how partner dancing depends on tactile signals and real-time response.30:00 – They touch on robotic form factors, questioning whether humanoid robots are the best approach and pondering the design of artificial muscles.35:00 – Brian proposes the idea of the Ahuja Test, gauging if a robot can move so fluidly it's indistinguishable from a human, using dance as the standard.Key InsightsPartner Dancing as a Frontier for Robotics: Brian Ahuja proposes that partner dancing could be a benchmark for robotic embodiment, where success would indicate a robot's ability to replicate fluid, responsive human movement. This task is far more complex than solo choreography—it requires real-time tactile feedback, improvisation, and nuanced physical communication.Movement Origin in Humans vs. Robots: A critical difference lies in how movement is generated. Human motion begins with muscle contraction, not at the joints. Robots, however, typically initiate movement at joint points, missing the layered interplay of muscles, tendons, and fascia that create smooth, lifelike motion.Haptic Feedback and Improvisation: Real partner dancing involves subtle cues, like pressure through fingertips, to signal direction and timing. For a robot to follow or lead a dance, it would need a highly sensitive haptic feedback system capable of interpreting and responding to these nonverbal signals in real time.The Limits of Current Robotics: Even with advanced robots like the Tesla bot, current movement still appears jerky and lacks the fluidity needed for partner dancing. The mechanical design—especially the lack of artificial musculature—may impose fundamental limits on how closely robots can mimic human motion.Applications Beyond Dance: The implications of this inquiry stretch beyond dance into fields like physical therapy, elder care, and domestic robotics. A robot that could move like a human could handle tasks requiring adaptability, precision, and physical sensitivity.Vision and Systems Thinking: Brian frames the challenge as a systems problem that might start with a lab or foundation. He emphasizes not needing to do everything alone, recognizing the value of building knowledge iteratively through conversations, research, and community.The Ahuja Test: Inspired by the Turing Test, Brian coins the idea of the “Ahuja Test”—a way to measure if a robot can move indistinguishably from a human. He suggests partner dancing could serve as the ultimate proving ground for such a test, given its demand for embodied intelligence and nuanced coordination.

In this Random and Unscripted episode, Marco Ciappelli and Sean Martin connect the dots between AI, robotics, connected systems, and human behavior. How do machines reshape society—and how do we reshape ourselves in response? A conversation born from their latest articles.This Random and Unscripted episode is exactly what the title promises—a raw, thoughtful exchange between Marco Ciappelli and Sean Martin, sparked by their most recent written reflections. The starting point? Two timely articles. Sean unpacks the complexity of securing connected environments—what happens when devices, vehicles, sensors, and platforms become part of something bigger? It's no longer about protecting individual elements, but understanding how they operate as “systems of systems”—intertwined, dynamic, and vulnerable. Meanwhile, Marco revisits Robbie, Isaac Asimov's iconic robot story, to explore how our relationship with technology evolves over time. What felt like distant science fiction in the 1980s now hits closer to home, as AI simulates understanding, machines mimic empathy, and humans blur the lines between organic and artificial. The discussion drifts from cybersecurity to human psychology, questioning how interacting with AI reshapes society—and whether our own behavior starts reflecting the technology we create. Machines are learning, systems are growing more complex, and somewhere along the way, humanity is changing too. Stay random. Stay curious. ⸻

Not a person, not a memory, but a story. Robbie, the first of Isaac Asimov's famous robot tales.It's strange how familiar words can feel different over time. I first encountered Robbie as a teenager in the 1980s, flipping through a paperback copy of I, Robot. Back then, it was pure science fiction. The future felt distant, abstract, and comfortably out of reach. Robots existed mostly in movies and imagination. Artificial intelligence was something reserved for research labs or the pages of speculative novels. Reading Asimov was a window into possibilities, but they remained possibilities.Today, the story feels different. I listened to it this time—the way I often experience books now—through headphones, narrated by a synthetic voice on a sleek device Asimov might have imagined, but certainly never held. And yet, it wasn't the method of delivery that made the story resonate more deeply; it was the world we live in now.Robbie was first published in 1939, a time when the idea of robots in everyday life was little more than fantasy. Computers were experimental machines that filled entire rooms, and global attention was focused more on impending war than machine ethics. Against that backdrop, Asimov's quiet, philosophical take on robotics was ahead of its time.Rather than warning about robot uprisings or technological apocalypse, Asimov chose to explore trust, projection, and the human tendency to anthropomorphize the tools we create. Robbie, the robot, is mute, mechanical, yet deeply present. He is a protector, a companion, and ultimately, an emotional anchor for a young girl named Gloria. He doesn't speak. He doesn't pretend to understand. But through his actions—loyalty, consistency, quiet presence—he earns trust.Those themes felt distant when I first read them in the '80s. At that time, robots were factory tools, AI was theoretical, and society was just beginning to grapple with personal computers, let alone intelligent machines. The idea of a child forming a deep emotional bond with a robot was thought-provoking but belonged firmly in the realm of fiction.Listening to Robbie now, decades later, in the age of generative AI, alters everything. Today, machines talk to us fluently. They compose emails, generate artwork, write stories, even simulate empathy. Our interactions with technology are no longer limited to function; they are layered with personality, design, and the subtle performance of understanding.Yet beneath the algorithms and predictive models, the reality remains: these machines do not understand us. They generate language, simulate conversation, and mimic comprehension, but it's an illusion built from probability and training data, not consciousness. And still, many of us choose to believe in that illusion—sometimes out of convenience, sometimes out of the innate human desire for connection.In that context, Robbie's silence feels oddly honest. He doesn't offer comfort through words or simulate understanding. His presence alone is enough. There is no performance. No manipulation. Just quiet, consistent loyalty.The contrast between Asimov's fictional robot and today's generative AI highlights a deeper societal tension. For decades, we've anthropomorphized our machines, giving them names, voices, personalities. We've designed interfaces to smile, chatbots to flirt, AI assistants that reassure us they “understand.” At the same time, we've begun to robotize ourselves, adapting to algorithms, quantifying emotions, shaping our behavior to suit systems designed to optimize interaction and efficiency.This two-way convergence was precisely what Asimov spoke about in his 1965 BBC interview, which has been circulating again recently. In that conversation, he didn't just speculate about machines becoming more human-like. He predicted the merging of biology and technology, the slow erosion of the boundaries between human and machine—a hybrid species, where both evolve toward a shared, indistinct future.We are living that reality now, in subtle and obvious ways. Neural implants, mind-controlled prosthetics, AI-driven decision-making, personalized algorithms—all shaping the way we experience life and interact with the world. The convergence isn't on the horizon; it's happening in real time.What fascinates me, listening to Robbie in this new context, is how much of Asimov's work wasn't just about technology, but about us. His stories remain relevant not because he perfectly predicted machines, but because he perfectly understood human nature—our fears, our projections, our contradictions.In Robbie, society fears the unfamiliar machine, despite its proven loyalty. In 2025, we embrace machines that pretend to understand, despite knowing they don't. Trust is no longer built through presence and action, but through the performance of understanding. The more fluent the illusion, the easier it becomes to forget what lies beneath.Asimov's stories, beginning with Robbie, have always been less about the robots and more about the human condition reflected through them. That hasn't changed. But listening now, against the backdrop of generative AI and accelerated technological evolution, they resonate with new urgency.I'll leave you with one of Asimov's most relevant observations, spoken nearly sixty years ago during that same 1965 interview:“The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom.”In many ways, we've fulfilled Asimov's vision—machines that speak, systems that predict, tools that simulate. But the question of wisdom, of how we navigate this illusion of consciousness, remains wide open.And, as a matter of fact, this reflection doesn't end here. If today's machines can already mimic understanding—convincing us they comprehend more than they do—what happens when the line between biology and technology starts to dissolve completely? When carbon and silicon, organic and artificial, begin to merge for real?That conversation deserves its own space—and it will. One of my next newsletters will dive deeper into that inevitable convergence—the hybrid future Asimov hinted at, where defining what's human, what's machine, and what exists in-between becomes harder, messier, and maybe impossible to untangle.But that's a conversation for another day.For now, I'll sit with that thought, and with Robbie's quiet, unpretentious loyalty, as the conversation continues.Until next time,Marco_________________________________________________

Fed-baas Jerome Powell is nog bijna een jaar de baas van de Amerikaanse centrale bank. Maar Trump zou deze zomer al 'de nieuwe Powell' willen benoemen. Volgens The Wall Street Journal mikt 'ie op september. Dat is veel eerder dan gebruikelijk. Iets waar beleggers van schrikken.We hebben het er deze aflevering over. We bespreken de kandidaten die genoemd worden, maar ook het risico van zo'n schaduwbaas. En of de angst van beleggers terecht is (en wat die dalende Dollar voor gevolgen heeft).Over centrale bankiers gesproken: we hebben het ook over de ECB. In Frankfurt hebben ze een bijzonder onderzoek gedaan. Ze hebben namelijk gekeken of ze ChatGPT kunnen inzetten voor hun onderzoek. Het korte antwoord: ja!Verder bespreken we de hype rondom het aandeel van Nvidia. Dat maakt ineens zijn comeback en dat heeft alles te maken met een aandeelhoudersvergadering en een enthousiaste topman. Al lijkt het er steeds meer op dat de aandeelhouders enthousiaster zijn dan de topman zelf... Ook gaat het over: Shell. Dat mag (omdat het geruchten over BP ontkent) nu niet op overnamepad. Jeff Bezos. Die probeert, nu Elon Musk weg is, te slijmen bij Trump. Ikea. Dat gaat de prijzen met 50 procent verlagen. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

How do we bridge the skills gap in UK manufacturing while pushing the boundaries of automation technology? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I sit down with Mark Gray, UK and Ireland Country Manager at Universal Robots, to explore how collaborative robots, or cobots, are rewriting the rules for companies big and small. Universal Robots, founded by three university professors in Denmark about twenty years ago, brought the world its first cobot and recently celebrated a landmark achievement with the sale of its 100,000th unit worldwide. Mark unpacks how this milestone reflects a shift in how industries from aerospace to pharmaceuticals now approach automation. He shares how the company's easy-to-deploy cobots help tackle the tasks that many workers prefer to avoid, focusing on the dirty, dangerous, and repetitive jobs, freeing human talent for higher-value work. But this conversation goes deeper than robot arms on production lines. Mark's passion lies in addressing the UK's well-documented skills shortage, a topic that resonates with manufacturers across the country. He explains why Universal Robots is investing in free technical training courses for apprentices, aiming to equip young people with practical robotics skills and inspire fresh interest in engineering and manufacturing careers. Based in Sheffield, Mark also reveals how the city's industrial heritage and its connections with institutions like the Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre help nurture a vibrant robotics ecosystem, attracting startups and fostering local innovation. We discuss the growing adoption of cobots by small and medium-sized enterprises, the impact of labour shortages on automation strategies, and how businesses can begin their journey without overhauling entire production lines at once. From practical roadshows to free line-walk audits, Mark outlines the resources available for any company curious about automation. Whether you're a manufacturing leader looking for ways to future-proof operations or a young listener intrigued by robotics as a career, this episode shows how thoughtful investment in skills and technology can shape a more productive and resilient future for the UK and beyond. Could cobots be the missing link between today's workforce challenges and tomorrow's manufacturing success? Let's find out. Here's the link to the Kraftwerk video    

“Prime Intellect was an uncertain god. It had acted because it had to, but if it had been human its hand would be shaking on the controls.” Welcome back to another episode of Made You Think! This episode dives into The Metamorphosis of Prime Intellect by Roger Williams, a soft sci-fi novella that imagines an all-powerful AI enforcing the Three Laws of Robotics to their absolute limit. We unpack themes like simulated realities, the search for meaning, and whether a perfect world is actually desirable. We cover a wide range of topics including: How Asimov's Three Laws break down in novel situations Potential alternate endings and our unanswered questions The magic of Amazon's invisible infrastructure What happens when every human desire is fulfilled? Why big tech breakthroughs start with hardware And much more. Please enjoy, and make sure to follow Nat, Neil, and Adil on Twitter and share your thoughts on the episode.

Going in, we had no idea what to expect, but it definitely delivered an experience. (2:15) From a storytelling perspective, we feel that the book injected drama and conflict into an otherwise straightforward narrative. (4:43) Nat, Neil, and Adil talk about parallels between this book and Nat's sci-fi novel, Husk. (8:30) Our discussion shifts to Isaac Asimov's I, Robot and the famous but imperfect Three Laws of Robotics, and how these laws start to break down in complex situations. (13:10) Spoiler alert (skip ahead if you need!): We get into the book's climax, which left us confused and with plenty of lingering questions. (17:17) We brainstorm alternative endings and wonder what a longer version of the book might have explored. (19:51) Neil connects the book with the film Dark City. How can you be sure the world you wake up to is the same one you remember? (24:13) Reflecting on how our world subtly shifts over time; from airport security changes to life before the 2008 financial crisis and the “ZIRP” era. (30:38) We touch on issues in healthcare, including the complexities of medical billing. (32:07) There have been many technological advancement in the 2010s, but one that leaves us impressed is Amazon's logistics system. (38:15) Large acquisitions that have gone on in our lifetime, like Instagram, Slack, and WhatsApp.  (45:52) A look at how major social platforms' rise was driven by hardware breakthroughs: Facebook's shift to mobile, Instagram becoming a camera-native app, and TikTok's explosive growth thanks to 4G/5G streaming.

This episode features a comprehensive discussion of research examining socially assisted robotics for children with autism. Madeline Jürgensen presents findings from two single-case design studies that investigated whether children with autism would attend to and learn from a small humanoid robot called Kebbi. The first study used a multiple baseline design to measure attending behaviors, revealing dramatic increases in eye contact and engagement when children worked with the robot versus human instructors. The second study employed an adaptive alternating treatment design to compare learning outcomes between robot and human instruction, finding that while children learned academic skills from both modalities, they showed preference for robot-delivered activities despite sometimes performing better with human instruction. The discussion includes important considerations about the novelty effect, social validity, and the future role of robotics in behavior analysis practice.  To earn CEUs for listening, click here, log in or sign up, pay the CEU fee, + take the attendance verification to generate your certificate!

Construction workers spend hours on their hands and knees snapping chalk lines to mark where walls, plumbing and utilities should go. It's painstaking, back-breaking labor. And that's how it's been done for centuries. Tessa Lau saw an opportunity — and built a robot that does it faster, safer, and with surgical precision. In this episode of Fund/Build/Scale, the Dusty Robotics founder and CEO shares some of what she's learned about transitioning from a researcher to a deep tech founder, including: How she turned past startup mistakes into a rigorous customer discovery process The structured approach Dusty used to land its first paying customer Why she says stealth mode is overrated — and how building in public gave them a head start How “cool tech” can lead you astray if you're not solving a real problem Smart ways to pivot and iterate based on actual user feedback What it takes to build a mission-driven team that scales with you If you're interested in robotics, deep tech, or why some concepts fall into the valley of death while others sail over it like a Red Bull stunt team — listen in.

You can even earn some of the highest yields in the industry—like the 7% or higher yield you can lock in with a Bond Account. Public is a FINRA-registered, SIPC-insured platform that takes your investments as seriously as you do. Fund your account in five minutes or less at ⁠public.com/venture⁠ and get up to $10,000 when you transfer your old portfolio.All investing involves the risk of loss, including loss of principal. Brokerage services for US-listed, registered securities, options and bonds in a self-directed account are offered by Public Investing, Inc., member FINRA & SIPC. Public Investing offers a High-Yield Cash Account where funds from this account are automatically deposited into partner banks where they earn interest and are eligible for FDIC insurance; Public Investing is not a bank. Cryptocurrency trading services are offered by Bakkt Crypto Solutions, LLC (NMLS ID 1890144), which is licensed to engage in virtual currency business activity by the NYSDFS. Cryptocurrency is highly speculative, involves a high degree of risk, and has the potential for loss of the entire amount of an investment. Cryptocurrency holdings are not protected by the FDIC or SIPC.A Bond Account is a self-directed brokerage account with Public Investing, member FINRA/SIPC. Deposits into this account are used to purchase 10 investment-grade and high-yield bonds. The 7%+ yield is the average, annualized yield to worst (YTW) across all ten bonds in the Bond Account, before fees, as of 5/15/2025. A bond's yield is a function of its market price, which can fluctuate; therefore, a bond's YTW is not “locked in” until the bond is purchased, and your yield at time of purchase may be different from the yield shown here. The “locked in” YTW is not guaranteed; you may receive less than the YTW of the bonds in the Bond Account if you sell any of the bonds before maturity or if the issuer defaults on the bond. Public Investing charges a markup on each bond trade. See our ⁠Fee Schedule⁠. *⁠Terms and Conditions⁠ apply.
