Jeff Huber is the CEO of Chroma, working on context engineering and building reliable retrieval infrastructure for AI systems. Context Engineering, Context Rot, & Agentic Search with the CEO of Chroma, Jeff Huber // MLOps Podcast #348.Join the Community: https://go.mlops.community/YTJoinInGet the newsletter: https://go.mlops.community/YTNewsletter// AbstractJeff Huber drops some hard truths about “context rot” — the slow decay of AI memory that's quietly breaking your favorite models. From retrieval chaos to the hidden limits of context windows, he and Demetrios Brinkmann unpack why most AI systems forget what matters and how Chroma is rethinking the entire retrieval stack. It's a bold look at whether smarter AI means cleaner context — or just better ways to hide the mess.// BioJeff Huber is the CEO and cofounder of Chroma.

They share recommendations for implementing evidence-based equitable practices and emphasize that DEI should be embedded in the core of compliance programs—not treated as a side hustle.
Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
High performers often build from pressure instead of peace. In this episode, discover how faith reshapes ambition — and how to move from striving for success to building with divine partnership, just like Nehemiah.When high performance becomes the only way you know how to feel safe, surrender feels foreign. But the moment you stop striving to build something for God and begin building with Him — peace replaces pressure, and purpose finds its true form.In this Sunday episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly explores what it means to trade ambition for alignment through the story of Nehemiah, who rebuilt Jerusalem not through hustle but through holy partnership. His leadership shows us the difference between the Tower — built to make a name — and the Temple — built to host Presence.This conversation speaks directly to high-capacity humans navigating success fatigue, spiritual exhaustion, and identity drift. It's a grounded, faith-forward invitation to trust that obedience is strategy — and that divine partnership isn't weakness, it's wisdom.You'll learn how to discern whether you're building from pressure or Presence, and what it looks like to lead from sufficiency rather than scarcity. Because the Sovereign never asked you to hold it all together — only to stay aligned with truth.The Recalibration isn't another mindset hack or leadership tactic. It's the root-level identity alignment that makes every other tool effective again — the small internal shift that changes how you build, lead, and live.Today's Micro Recalibration: In prayer or reflection, ask: “Am I building this for recognition or for relationship?” Let the answer come gently. Peace will always reveal what's pure.Semantic keyword clusters: burnout recovery, spiritual exhaustion, faith and performance, leadership burnout, identity drift, high performer faith, divine partnership, surrender and success, rebuilding with God, purpose realignment, presence over performance.Named entities: Nehemiah, Tower of Babel, Temple of GodIf this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Will artificial intelligence robots have subjective experience? What are the ethical and safety implications of such entities? Which quantum physics theory can accommodate consciousness?In this episode we have the extraordinary possibility of subjective experience and feelings in artificial intelligence robotic systems to think about. So we look at experiments to try and prove if it's even possible; the quantum building blocks from which both living and artificial systems are made up; the ethical and safety implications of advanced intelligence instantiated in robots, and we get into the controversial search for a quantum physics theory that can accommodate consciousness.Fortunately, my guest today is not only one of the first pioneering scientists to really devote themselves to the creation of sentient human-similar robot minds and bodies, but is also an experimental physicist working with quantum computing systems. She is of course the quantum engineer, consciousness researcher and AI computer scientist Suzanne Gildert. She has written over 80 scientific papers, founded several successful AI companies and has dozens of US patents for her inventions. What we discuss:00:00 Intro.04:25 Her move to AI & robotics from quantum computing.06:45 Something missing from materialism.11:00 The what, how and why of consciousness.12:20 Remembering quantum fields are the base level of reality.15:50 Quantum Biology - John Joe McFadden.18:20 ‘Protecting' quantum coherence environments.20:00 The Penrose-Hameroff microtubules quantum consciousness theory.24:40 The risks of the “two mysteries” argument.30:10 Looking for subjective experience in AI robots.33:55 “Reward function”, purpose led, agential behaviour doesn't emerge naturally in AI.36:25 Limitations to building sentient AI robots.39:25 Iain McGilchrist's left-right hemisphere interpretation of split brain data.41:40 How similar are AI minds to human ones?43:40 Will Ai become conscious one day?44:40 The generalisation problem.47:50 The anthropomorphism problem.50:05 Ethical implications - Regulations, rights and protections.53:20 Survival instinct research in AI.57:20 Brain activity mapping to subjective experience, AI decoder research.50:20 Biological robots: Different emergent possibilities?01:01:50 Cellular material re-purposing itself spontaneously.01:04:10 Could the biosphere be a technology?01:07:40 Quantum Conscious Agency Theory.01:14:05 Quantum Annealing. 01:21:03 Can you test for panpsychism?01:25:10 Buddhism: the dissociated agent approach.References:www.SuzanneGildert.comQuantum Conscious Agent theory presentation - Suzanne Gildert.Jeff Hawkins, Sandra Blakeslee, “On Intelligence“.John Joe Mcfadden, CC Quantum Biology episodeRoger Penrose, Orch OR (Orchestrated objective reduction) theory.Erwin Shrodinger, “What is Life?”.‘In Tests, Open AI's New Model Lied and Schemed to Avoid Being Shut Down' article‘Brain activity decoder can reveal stories in people's minds' articleJerry Tang et al. ‘Semantic reconstruction of continuous language from non-invasive brain recordings' paperTristan Harris & Aza Raskin, “The AI Dilemma” presentation, March 2023
The Semantic Layer and AI Agents // MLOps Podcast #343 with David Jayatillake, VP of AI at Cube.dev.Join the Community: https://go.mlops.community/YTJoinInGet the newsletter: https://go.mlops.community/YTNewsletter// AbstractDavid Jayatillake argues that the real battle in data isn't about AI — it's about who controls the semantics. In this episode, he calls out how proprietary BI tools quietly lock companies into their ecosystems, making data less open and less useful. David and Demetrios debate whether semantic layers should live in open-source hands and how AI agents might soon replace entire chunks of manual data engineering. From feature stores to LLM-driven analytics, this conversation challenges how we think about ownership, access, and the future of data workflows.// BioExperienced and world-renowned data, technology, and AI leader.

In Part 2 of this conversation, Ana de la Cruz, SEO Lead at Chartis, returns to The Simple and Smart SEO Show with Crystal Waddell for a deep dive into the human side of AI.Ana unpacks how experimenting with chatbots taught her the inner workings of LLMs, what semantic triples really mean for SEO, and how the Japanese philosophy of Ikigai helps her balance learning, creativity, and life.Crystal connects it all back to entrepreneurship — discussing the “never-ending to-do list,” living an optimized life, and how technology can make us more human when we use it with intention.You'll learn:What SEOs can learn from experimenting with AI and codingWhy understanding semantic triples and language structure mattersHow to use Ikigai to prioritize time and energyHow to optimize life, not just websiteHelpful Links:
Ben Hunt returns to Excess Returns to break down the hidden risks building inside private credit and the parallels between today's “alternative asset managers” and the shadow banking system that triggered the 2008 financial crisis. Using the Godfather's Tessio as a metaphor for betrayal and broken trust, Ben explains how opacity, leverage, and narrative collapse can turn small defaults into systemic crises. He and Matt Zeigler explore what's really happening beneath the surface of private markets, how common knowledge shifts shape investor behavior, and how Perscient Pro's “storyboards” and “semantic signatures” help track the narratives driving markets in real time.Main topics coveredWhy Ben believes we're at a “trust-breaking” moment similar to 2007The Godfather analogy and what frauds reveal about human behaviorHow private credit has evolved into today's “shadow banking” systemFlow machines, hidden leverage, and why opacity is intentionalThe dangers of informational asymmetry between investors and lendersHow broken trust creates chain reactions in financial systemsThe link between narrative collapse and liquidity crisesCommon knowledge, crowd reactions, and market psychologyDoom loops between Wall Street and the real economyHow Perscient Pro tracks financial narratives using semantic signaturesWhy gold's current rally is about safety, not debasementWhat investors should monitor next in credit, housing, and macro narrativesTimestamps0:00 Hidden leverage and the trust problem1:04 Introduction to Ben Hunt and Epsilon Theory2:12 The Tessio analogy – betrayal and the structure of fraud6:10 How private credit became today's shadow banking system10:55 Flow machines and why opacity is intentional14:48 Trust breaks and the “funding stops first” dynamic18:35 The Biden “common knowledge” moment explained21:00 What happens when narratives collapse24:26 Apollo, asymmetric information, and shorting First Brands28:00 Hidden leverage and the domino effects of default33:40 The “doom loop” between Wall Street and the real economy39:10 Why Silicon Valley Bank was different44:18 What a “run on Wall Street” could look like48:00 Perscient Pro and tracking financial storyboards53:32 Semantic signatures and narrative detection57:10 Housing, inflation, and gold storyboards1:00:48 Where to follow Ben Hunt and learn more about Perscient Pro

Send us a textIn this episode of Sidecar Sync, co-hosts Mallory Mejias sits down with Dr. Nicola Sahar to explore how a University of Toronto med student dove head-first into clinical AI research and went on to found Semantic Health, an AI-powered medical coding platform later acquired by the American Academy of Professional Coders in 2023. They unpack the art and science of medical coding, discuss why AI will augment rather than replace coders, dive into the critical role of data privacy and private-cloud deployments in healthcare AI, and share why associations are uniquely positioned to guide their members through this AI transformation.Dr. Nick Sahar is a Canadian physician and health tech entrepreneur who co-founded Semantic Health. In 2023, Semantic Health was acquired by the American Academy of Professional Coders - AAPC - marking a significant milestone in the adoption of AI in healthcare operations. Today, Dr. Sahar remains an active voice in the healthcare AI space, focused on building tools that support clinicians and improve patient care.LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicolasahar/Semantic Health - https://www.semantichealth.ai/AAPC - https://www.aapc.com/
In this episode of Gradient Dissent, Lukas Biewald sits down with Arvind Jain, CEO and founder of Glean. They discuss Glean's evolution from solving enterprise search to building agentic AI tools that understand internal knowledge and workflows. Arvind shares how his early use of transformer models in 2019 laid the foundation for Glean's success, well before the term "generative AI" was mainstream.They explore the technical and organizational challenges behind enterprise LLMs—including security, hallucination suppression—and when it makes sense to fine-tune models. Arvind also reflects on his previous startup Rubrik and explains how Glean's AI platform aims to reshape how teams operate, from personalized agents to ever-fresh internal documentation.Follow Arvind Jain: https://x.com/jainarvindFollow Weights & Biases: https://x.com/weights_biasesTimestamps: [00:01:00] What Glean is and how it works [00:02:39] Starting Glean before the LLM boom [00:04:10] Using transformers early in enterprise search [00:06:48] Semantic search vs. generative answers [00:08:13] When to fine-tune vs. use out-of-box models [00:12:38] The value of small, purpose-trained models [00:13:04] Enterprise security and embedding risks[00:16:31] Lessons from Rubrik and starting Glean [00:19:31] The contrarian bet on enterprise search [00:22:57] Culture and lessons learned from Google [00:25:13] Everyone will have their own AI-powered "team" [00:28:43] Using AI to keep documentation evergreen [00:31:22] AI-generated churn and risk analysis [00:33:55] Measuring model improvement with golden sets[00:36:05] Suppressing hallucinations with citations [00:39:22] Agents that can ping humans for help [00:40:41] AI as a force multiplier, not a replacement [00:42:26] The enduring value of hard work
Truth in Learning: in Search of Something! Anything!! Anybody?
Welcome back! Sorry for our long hiatus. In this episode, Clark and Matt explore GENERATIVE LEARNING. Early on, Clark brings up Craik and Lockhart's research about how information is processed on different levels (Craik, F. I. M., & Lockhart, R. S. (1972). Levels of processing: A framework for memory research. Journal of Verbal Learning and Verbal behavior, 11, 671-684.) The paper can be found here. Throughout the podcast we talk about our colleagues and friends, John Sweller and Paul Kirschner several times. Some of the references we allude to are: LDA Podcast. (2024, January 25). The “What the Skills” Episode. Interview with Paul Kirschner by Matthew Richter. https://ldaccelerator.com/podcast. Sweller, J. (2016). Cognitive Load Theory: What We Learn and How We Learn. In M. Spector, B. Lockee, & M. Childress (Eds.), Learning, design, and technology (pp. 1–28). Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-17727-4_50-1 Sweller, J., van Merrienboer, J.J.G., & Paas, F. (1998). Cognitive architecture and instructional design. Educational Psychology Review, 10(3), 251–296. Another hero of ours is Richard Mayer. A favorite source from Rich, along with his long-time colleague and our LDA friend, Ruth Clark, is: Clark, R. C., & Mayer, R. E. (2024). E‑Learning and the Science of Instruction: Proven Guidelines for Consumers and Designers of Multimedia Learning (5th ed.). Wiley. Clark relays a story of working with Kathy Fisher during his time as a graduate student, discussing her use of semantic networking with biology students to help them represent their understandings: Fisher, K. (1992). Semantic networking: the new kid on the block. In P. A. M. Kommers, D. H. Jonassen, & J. T. Mayes (Eds.) Mindtools: Cognitive Technologies for Modelling Knowledge. Berlin: Springer-Verlag. At one point we discuss the human information processing loop. While Sweller (and Kirschner) are super explainers of the Loop– as John refers to it, a part of the cognitive architecture, others have come before... Atkinson, R.C.; Shiffrin, R.M. (1968). Human Memory: A Proposed System and its Control Processes. Psychology of Learning and Motivation. Vol. 2. pp. 89–195. doi:10.1016/S0079-7421(08)60422-3 Baddeley, A. D., & Hitch, G. J. (1974).

The magical number seven, plus or minus two: Some limits on our capacity for processing information. Psychological Review, 63(2), 81–97. https://doi.org/10.1037/h0043158 Sweller and Kishner soon come up again, but this time with their co-author, Richard Clark, during a heated discussion of their groundbreaking (and Matt favorite) paper about the issues with constructivist learning called “Why Minimal Guidance During Instruction Does Not Work: An Analysis of the Failure of Constructivist, Discovery, Problem-Based, Experiential, and Inquiry-Based Teaching” which can be found here: Kirschner, P. A., Sweller, J., & Clark, R. E. (2006).

Educational Psychologist, 41(2), 75–86. https://doi.org/10.1207/s15326985ep4102_1 Next, we discuss how to confirm whether the learners are able to retrieve the information being conveyed to them. Clark shares the work of teacher and cognitive scientist, Pooja Aggerwal: Agarwal, P.K. (2019). Retrieval Practice & Bloom's Taxonomy: Do Students Need Fact Knowledge Before Higher Order Learning? Journal of Educational Psychology, Vol. 111 (2), 189–209. We hope you enjoy!
Back in 2010, Tableau beat smarter tools with a better demo. No brain, all charm and the market loved it. Fast-forward to now: same playbook, new costume. The AI dashboard crowd is selling “natural language BI” with zero semantic model, zero memory, and a whole lot of LinkedIn swagger. In this episode, Rob and Justin revisit why Tableau's empty-calorie approach won the first round, and how that same mistake is about to flood the AI + BI space all over again. Turns out, you can still sell snake oil if you call it GenAI. Rob breaks down how an elite MIT course managed to skip LLMs entirely, how a flashy Tableau blog post went viral for connecting a CSV, and why “AI-ready” vendors keep duct-taping chat interfaces onto raw SQL and hoping no one looks under the hood. But the real story? Microsoft is sitting on the most powerful data brain in the game, and if they land the front end, it's game over. This isn't just a history lesson. It's a blueprint for seeing through the hype and betting on what actually works. If you're building, buying, or betting on AI tools, listen in before you get dazzled by the demo.

I interviewed 60 Brits to debunk one of psychology's greatest myths. Priming is one of the best-known biases in behavioural science. Kahneman mentions it 35 times in his best-selling book Thinking Fast and Slow. And yet, I'm not convinced it really works. In five separate experiments, I tested it. Does priming work, or is it a myth?

Welcome to Episode 402 of the Microsoft Cloud IT Pro Podcast. In today's episode, we're thrilled to have Andrew Connell (AC) joining us once again. If you've been with us for a while, you'll recognize AC as a repeat guest and one of the early voices who encouraged us to launch this podcast. In this episode, we're diving deep into the world of Microsoft Copilot agents from a bit of a developer's perspective . We expand on insights from Episode 400 and helping us understand some additional intricacies of how Copilot works under the hood. We'll break down the different billing models and some limitations in what they provide and why having at least one $30 license is key to unlocking the semantic index. We'll also explore how Copilot uses semantic indexing to ground responses in your organization's data, and how it respects user permissions through access control lists. But it's not all smooth sailing—AC also walks us through some of the current limitations, like missing metadata and large file indexing. He also shares a potential workaround using Azure AI Search for those needing more comprehensive coverage. Finally, we this weeks Microsoft Build Conference and tease a potential future episode where ACw will return to talk about custom Copilot development.

Banking is no longer just about numbers—it's about data. In this episode, we unpack how financial institutions can modernize through two transformative shifts: cloud-based data architecture and standardized semantics.With AI set to deliver trillions in value, banks can't afford to be stuck in outdated systems that can't talk to each other. Drawing on real-world examples like Standard Chartered's transformation with SAP and Microsoft Azure, we show how banks are moving from fragmented infrastructure to streamlined ecosystems—and what it takes to get there.What You'll Learn in This Episode:

Marketing Leadership Podcast: Strategies From Wise D2C & B2B Marketers
In this episode, Dots Oyebolu speaks to Cruce Saunders, Founder and Principal at Simple [A], about building scalable content operations using intelligent systems and structured processes.Cruce shares how organizations can transform content from a chaotic expense into a strategic asset through clear handoffs, semantic models and composable architectures. Drawing from decades of experience, he outlines how content operations supports omnichannel delivery, reduces duplication and accelerates time-to-market across enterprise teams. Key Takeaways:(03:27) Generative AI is shaping content creation and delivery, but many companies are still working on foundational content operations.(06:29) Content operations oversee the entire content lifecycle, ensuring strategic goals are realized across every customer experience.(08:37) Content marketing is only one output of a broader content operations system, alongside support tools like chatbots and documentation.(10:12) Large organizations can save millions by centralizing content services and reducing duplicated effort across teams and channels.(14:45) Semantic models and intelligent tagging systems make content discoverable and contextually connected across digital experiences.(23:16) Content services organizations often pay for themselves within the first year by eliminating hundreds of manual hours per campaign and delivering multimillion-dollar ROI.(31:31) Enterprises can achieve ROI in year one by reducing redundant content processes and automating high-friction handoffs.Resources mentioned: Cruce Saundershttps://www.linkedin.com/in/cruce/Simple [A] | LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/simple-a/Simple [A] | Websitehttps://simplea.com/Insightful Links:https://blog.hubspot.com/marketing/content-operationshttps://contentmarketinginstitute.com/articles/content-operations-framework/https://www.toaststudio.com/en/content-marketing-operations-the-engine-of-your-content-strategy/Thanks for listening to the “Marketing Leadership” podcast, brought to you by Listen Network.

One of the biggest downsides of consumer AI?It doesn't have up-to-date access to your enterprise data. Even as frontier labs work tirelessly to connect and integrate AI chatbots with your data, we're a far way off from that happening. Unless you're using a platform like IBM's watsonx.

Sigma Computing recently hit $100M in ARR — planning on doubling revenue again this year— and in this episode, CEO Mike Palmer reveals exactly how they did it by throwing out the old BI playbook. We open with the provocative claim that “the world did not need another BI tool,” and dig into why the last 20 years of business intelligence have been “boring.” He explains how Sigma's spreadsheet-like interface lets anyone analyze billions of rows in seconds, and lives on top of Snowflake and Databricks, with no SQL required and no data extractions.Mike shares the inside story of Sigma's journey: why they shut down their original product to rebuild from scratch, how Sutter Hill Ventures' unique incubation model shaped the company, what it took to go from $2M to $100M ARR in just three years and raise a $200M round — even as the growth stage VC market dried up. We get into the technical details behind Sigma's architecture: no caching, no federated queries, and real-time, Google Sheets-style collaboration at massive scale—features that have convinced giants like JP Morgan and ExxonMobil to ditch legacy dashboards for good.We also tackle the future of BI and the modern data stack: why 99.99% of enterprise data is never touched, what's about to happen as the stack consolidates, and why Mike thinks “text-to-SQL” AI is a “terrible idea.” This episode is full of "spicey takes" - Mike shares his thoughts on how Google missed the zeitgeist, the reality behind Microsoft Fabric, when engineering hubris leads to failure, and many more.

In 1980, Michelle Smith published a book that triggered the Satanic Panic, a worldwide fear that Satan worshippers were recruiting millions to embrace satanism. Today, I explore the surprising science of false memories with Dr. Charan Ranganath, author of Why We Remember. Dr. Ranganath reveals how memory is more imagination than recollection, why some people vividly remember things that never happened, and why the Satanic Panic was based on fiction not fact. You'll learn: How Michelle Remembers sparked the Satanic Panic and shaped public fear. Why memories “recovered” in therapy can feel real but be completely false. How a memory expert misremembered her own mother's death. The shocking study where 40% of participants believed they committed a crime they never did. ---- Download the Reading List: https://nudge.kit.com/readinglist Sign up to my newsletter: https://www.nudgepodcast.com/mailing-list Connect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/phill-agnew-22213187/ Watch Nudge on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@nudgepodcast/ Charan's book Why We Remember: https://charanranganath.com/ ---- Sources: 60 Minutes Australia.
