    Ep 403 AI, AGI, ASI, No Joke. What Next?

    Episode 403 of RevolutionZ takes a side trip away from our current ideology sequence to revisit the issues surrounding the development of Artificial Intelligence. Media is full of smart sober folks saying the end is near but also with smart sober folks saying utopia is near. Are we on a deadly trajectory to hell? Or is heaven on earth the next stop on the technology express? Or maybe it is just two-headed hype. Just another shiny new technology but barely more than that? More immediately, what has happened of late? What is likely to happen next? What should we ourselves work to cause to happen?AI is getting “better” so fast that arguing about today's mistakes can miss the main fact that matters most: the slope of the curve. We consider what happens when large language models evolve into agentic systems. When being able to spit out "the next word" so effectively that passing the Turing Test is a lark, to being able to plan, to autonomously act, even to recruit other AIs, and to self-improve in ways even their creators can't predict not only impinges on what used to be how humans earn and live, but also, how we manifest our humanity. We ask a simple question with big implications: if you had a three-position switch, would you let AI continue full speed, pause it until strict enforceable rules exist, or shut it down forever? We dig into the motives behind AI's trajectory. The story involves innovations; but the crux is motivations and incentives. When CEOs believe the first country and company to reach artificial super intelligence, or ASI, wins everything, for them to seek safety becomes in their eyes a competitive handicap. The public becomes collateral. We consider how the emerging "who is going to win, it better be me" emphasis means for AI safety, regulation, data centers and "compute," and why “trust the companies” and "trust the government," is not a plan. We also get specific about real-world impacts: deepfakes that shred shared reality, AI-enabled fraud that scales without limit, surveillance that tightens lives, and job displacement that turns productivity into pink slips. And then we step outside the box of familiar AI discussion to ask even if we imagine perfect intentions--no nefarious apocalypse of greed and hate--we still have to wrestle with the impact of unintended consequences like outsourced reading, outsourced care, and the slow erosion of the skills and bonds that make us human. This episode is unsettling. Share it with a friend who thinks AI is just another tool, all that matters is who owns it, and ask yourself and others: do we need fast, faster, and fastest development, as now, or do we need a moratorium, a full shutdown, or something else entirely? Data centers are certainly horrible. To oppose them is more than warranted. But if the companies were to find a way to ASI without data centers, would that suddenly be something to celebrate--or to terminate? Is AI an existential danger? Is it a path to civilized living at last? Or is it just a lot of hype?Support the show

    President Trump says the intervention of the United States' Gulf allies led him to put a pause on Iranian strikes, because there was a potential deal in the works. The president saying talks are a priority, with negotiations set to begin today. Iran has not publicly commented on Trump's remarks, with Trump declining to comment about possible U.S. troop movements out of the region.Senators on Sunday night, reached a deal to fund the government through December 11th, with a goal to avoid a shutdown during the midterm elections. The deal, approved by both Democrat and Republican leaders, would block a grant rule proposed by the Trump administration. White House officials say the rule was meant to “improve transparency, accountability, and oversight" for federal grants, but some Senators say it could lead to "politicizing grants."Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche has formally rescinded the Department's $1.8-billion anti-weaponization fund. The move follows weeks of discussions with Senators who had raised concerns about the fund and delayed Blanche's nomination as Attorney General. The agreement could pave the way for Senator John Cornyn to support Blanche when the Senate Judiciary Committee votes on his nomination Tuesday.

    In the summer of 1978, many Swedish workers relished the chance to take longer, paid vacations than ever before.This was thanks to an update to Sweden's Annual Leave Act –or Semesterlagen in Swedish – passed the previous year. The law guaranteed all employees four consecutive weeks of vacation, and increased their total annual leave to five weeks, giving them some of the longest paid holidays in the world.These policies transformed the way Swedes do business. Many factories and offices shut down for an entire month during the summer. Today,Sweden retains its strong reputation for work-life balance, and the annual leave act has given rise to the 'sommar jobb' - short summer jobs that help cover holiday absences.Former union worker Inga Persson, who was in her late 20s when the law was passed, tells Matilda Welin about the impact it had on her family, who decided to spend their first long, paid uninterrupted vacation in a new campervan.

    You’re listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for July 28, 2026. We open with the growing controversy surrounding Senator Mitch McConnell after Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear publicly called on him to prove he is capable of serving or resign. We examine whether the governor's concerns are legitimate or politically motivated, why McConnell's continued absence has fueled speculation, and what Kentucky's updated election laws mean if the Senate seat were to become vacant before November's election. In our Top 3 Things You Need to Know, President Trump meets separately with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to discuss the Middle East, Ukraine, and expanding the Abraham Accords. The Department of Justice asks the Supreme Court to reinstate President Trump's executive order requiring stricter citizenship verification for mail-in voting, and newly released audio recordings of former President Joe Biden reveal conversations about classified documents and memory lapses that are reigniting questions surrounding the federal investigation. We also break down the release of more than 1,000 pages of Anthony Fauci's personal diaries, which critics say contradict years of public testimony about his role in school shutdowns during the COVID-19 pandemic. We discuss the diary entries describing conversations with state and local leaders, the growing questions surrounding Fauci's influence over pandemic policy, and why the newly released records are drawing renewed scrutiny from Congress. Our American Mamas, Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson, react to Fauci's diaries and discuss what they believe the entries reveal about his leadership during the pandemic. They examine his private reflections, his interactions with political leaders and media personalities, and why they believe the diaries raise serious questions about transparency, accountability, and public trust. We dig deep into several major stories shaping the country, including the highest national foreclosure rate in nearly seven years and what happens when government intervention distorts the housing market. We also examine controversy surrounding a Smithsonian exhibit describing "whiteness" and whether the museum's messaging promotes unity or division. Finally, we discuss billions of dollars in Chinese funding flowing into American universities and the growing concerns about foreign influence inside U.S. higher education. We also highlight FIFA President Gianni Infantino's public defense of the United States after the World Cup, praising the tournament's safety, hospitality, and unity while pushing back against critics who predicted chaos. The tournament welcomed millions of fans from around the world without the violence or unrest many expected, making it one of the event's biggest success stories. And we close with an inspiring story out of California, where 16-year-old lifeguard Ryder heroically rescued a 10-year-old boy from dangerous surf. His quick thinking and bravery caught the attention of President Trump, who announced the young lifeguard will be invited to the White House to be recognized for his actions. May your pursuit of happiness bring you joy.

    Freeze is not the same as shutdown, even though people use the words like they mean the same thing. Shutdown is a limp collapse. Freeze is tense: all the energy to run or fight, with a body that can't move. It's the gas and the brake at the same time, and it's underneath panic, phobias, and that flash of rage that comes out of nowhere. Here's what's actually happening in a freeze, how to come out of one in the moment, and why a long-held freeze has to be thawed slowly rather than forced.

Join the free masterclass and learn the full 5-stage framework: https://www.amenkaur.com/masterclassEver feel like you're moving through molasses, giving maximum effort for minimal output? This episode unpacks the 8% Battery Rule, a simple way to understand why high-achievers hit sudden walls of exhaustion, and the exact signals your nervous system sends before, during, and after a shutdown.In this episode: Why cortisol isn't the villain it's made out to be, and what its natural daily rhythm should look like. How a "flat" stress curve is actually a sign of chronic overload, not calm. Why your recovery speed after a hard day is a better resilience signal than how you feel in the moment. The hidden cost of suppressing grief, anger, and shame while you're "too busy" to feel them. A simple weekly practice for identifying what's quietly draining your energy.Who this is for: high-achievers, entrepreneurs, and high-functioning professionals who keep pushing through exhaustion and want the biological reason their body keeps shutting down, plus a practical way to reverse it.Frequently asked questions: What is the 8% Battery Rule? It describes the tipping point where the nervous system shifts from functioning under pressure into a protective shutdown, often mistaken for laziness or burnout. Why do high-achievers experience sudden shutdowns? They tend to override early stress signals to keep performing, which pushes the body into functional freeze instead of allowing normal recovery. How do I know if my nervous system is recovering? Faster bounce-back time after a hard day is one of the clearest signs your range and resilience are returning.The science behind this episodeThis episode is science-led. Here are the studies behind each claim, in the order they come up.On the cortisol curve flattening under chronic stress: Adam, E. K., Quinn, M. E., Tavernier, R., McQuillan, M. T., Dahlke, K.

Psychoneuroendocrinology, 83, 25–41. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.psyneuen.2017.05.018On stress shifting the brain from its slower regulating systems to faster threat-driven ones: Arnsten, A. F. T. (2009). Stress signalling pathways that impair prefrontal cortex structure and function. Nature Reviews Neuroscience, 10(6), 410–422. https://doi.org/10.1038/nrn2648On why the stress response keeps running as long as you keep thinking about the stressor (the "open tabs"): Brosschot, J. F., Gerin, W., & Thayer, J. F. (2006). The perseverative cognition hypothesis: A review of worry, prolonged stress-related physiological activation, and health. Journal of Psychosomatic Research, 60(2), 113–124. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jpsychores.2005.06.074On allostatic load — the cumulative cost carried across the body's systems: McEwen, B. S. (1998).

New England Journal of Medicine, 338(3), 171–179. https://doi.org/10.1056/NEJM199801153380307A note on the science: These findings describe patterns across large groups of people, not a diagnosis of any individual. The associations are real and consistent, but they're modest in size — which is exactly why nothing in this episode can tell you what's happening in your own body.

On one side, anti-nuclear campaigners and politicians celebrate their victory. This is a new, clean, dawn for the German power grid, they say. On the other side of the gate, a small but vocal group of pro-nuclear greens condemn what they believe is a grave mistake. And as other countries pledge to increase their nuclear energy capacities, this group is playing the long game. They believe they may have lost the battle here in Germany, but they will win the war.

    Hi, it's Neil Cowmeadow here with episode 435 of The Tutor Podcast, the Monday morning shot of uncommon sense for anyone who wants start, grow and love their own tutoring, teaching and coaching business – the same way I love mine.  As usual I've been rummaging through the ragbag of my mind and my notebooks, the ones I've made during all the courses, seminars, classes, webinars, conferences, field trips, research projects, books, trade press, videos and a ton of other stuff I've done over the years… Boiling it down to get at the good bits so I can give them to you in a no-nonsense, No BS kind of way... So I'm squeezing a little more juice out of it for myself, and –at the same time - sharing it with you here in the hope that it helps you have as much fun at work and in life as I do. And – of course - I'm not just here to talk, I'm listening - so if you have any ideas that might be worth sharing via the show – get in touch info@neilcowmeadow.com or on X where I am @TutorPodcast, and maybe you can help me to learn something new, something better? Because I'm smart enough to realise that I don't have all the answers, and if I rely on my own tiny, pea-sized brain to solve all of my problems…. Well..... If you're good with that, let's crack on...  This is an idea I've used for years, and I highly recommend it to anyone who can't get away fast enough... It's one of those simple, effective routines that makes so much sense, takes very little effort, and makes life significantly better, right off the bat. It's a few minutes, last thing at night – and it can remove oceans of stress and anxiety, letting you sleep better and get more epic stuff done. Here it is: Open up your diary or organiser – PAPER, please – to the page where you run the week or day. Paper, please - because it will make things more immediate and improve your thinking.  Previous ep 426 – exploring how writing longhand with a real pen improves brain function and learning Empty your brain out onto the page – simple note to yourself of all the things that are whizzing round in your tiny, pea-sized brain. Don't sort or judge – just dump everything onto the page Now go to sleep. Simple – but powerful... you see, your brain is for thinking with, not for storing large amounts of data. Forcing that data – all the stuff – out onto paper relieves the pressure on the brain to NOT FORGET STUFF. Reducing the load on your brain's limited resources by externalising cognition (getting it out into a different location) is like cleaning the desktop after a busy day, putting everything where it should go, ready to begin tomorrow with a clear desktop, uncluttered by yesterday's chaos. Write down EVERYTHING: jobs and tasks you suddenly remembered, the slides for tomorrow's lesson or presentation, a reminder to pay the cleaner.... everything. We've all had the experience of turning out the light, snuggling down for a good night's sleep and then – ooh!   Something pops up in your mind – usually minor but important. You now have to decide whether to turn the light on and find something to scribble it down on, or risk that sleep you were just drifting into... or – worst of all – swiping your phone and making a note to yourself on it... This CLOSEDOWN procedure is common in many high performance environments – including armed forces, intelligence services, spaces agencies and the like. So if it's good enough for them.... You can also use your brain dump to set up your most important 1-3 things to do tomorrow - once you've finished your dump.  I know a few of you will now be smirking like naughty schoolboys because I said “finished your dump”. You know who you are!  Running this routine every night ensures that less important STUFF slips through the net, and – perhaps more important than that – promotes better sleep whilst giving a feeling of being more in control of your life. So get started with this one if you want to do better work, forget fewer important things, sleep better and enjoy a more relaxed life with less stress... And let me know how it works for you via email to info@neilcowmeadow.com  AND if you have any comments, questions or problems,  get in touch  - again it's info@neilcowmeadow.com    or on X where I am @The Tutor Podcast Let's leave it there for today – I hope this show has got you thinking and has been some help to you. Join me – Neil Cowmeadow – for the next episode of The Tutor Podcast for more No-BS tips and ideas of how to Start, Grow and Love YOUR Tutoring Business – just like I love mine. Till then, remember that Life is largely what you make it, so make it gorgeous. Be excellent to yourself and to those you love - stay healthy, stay useful, and Have a Fabulous Day!

    The Department of Government Efficiency, better known as DOGE, has officially been terminated. Its July 4th sunset date was part of Donald Trump's original executive order that created the agency, which Elon Musk ran. During his tenure, Musk oversaw the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D., which used to provide life-saving medical and nutritional programs around the world. Musk, who recently became the world's first trillionaire, claims that there is no evidence that a single person died after DOGE cancelled more than eighty per cent of U.S.A.I.D.'s programs, cutting basic health-care access to some ninety-five million people. Atul Gawande disagrees. He was the assistant administrator for global health at  U.S.A.I.D. until he stepped down, the same week Trump ended U.S. foreign assistance. Gawande says an estimated seven hundred thousand people have already died as a result of the cuts. David Remnick speaks with the longtime New Yorker contributor about the profound effects of ending U.S.A.I.D.'s work abroad, Musk's involvement in these decisions, and the deaths it all has wrought.    Further reading, viewing, and listening:  “The Shutdown of U.S.A.I.D.

    The Department of Government Efficiency, better known as DOGE, has officially been terminated. Its July 4th sunset date was part of Donald Trump's original executive order that created the agency, which Elon Musk ran. During his tenure, Musk oversaw the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D., which used to provide life-saving medical and nutritional programs around the world. Musk, who recently became the world's first trillionaire, claims that there is no evidence that a single person died after DOGE cancelled more than eighty per cent of U.S.A.I.D.'s programs, cutting basic health-care access to some ninety-five million people. Atul Gawande disagrees. He was the assistant administrator for global health at  U.S.A.I.D. until he stepped down, the same week Trump ended U.S. foreign assistance. Gawande says an estimated seven hundred thousand people have already died as a result of the cuts. David Remnick speaks with the longtime New Yorker contributor about the profound effects of ending U.S.A.I.D.'s work abroad, Musk's involvement in these decisions, and the deaths it all has wrought.    Further reading, viewing, and listening:  “The Shutdown of U.S.A.I.D.

    This week, we talk about a long time MLB player, with a gift for saying quotable things, and a love of the high life. He started out in humble beginnings, while saying his mother was "more of a sister", and waiting for Christmas presents that would never arrive. He had an impressive baseball career, only to have it prematurely derailed, mainly due to his attitude. After baseball, he drifted into the hobby of getting arrested quite a bit, and may actually be a fugitive, right now!!   Wait for your Dad's Christmas presents, only to find out something tragic. Talk about yourself in the third person, and when yiou get arrested for having a crack pipe, ask the hard question, like "who cares?" with Derek Bell!!   Check us out, every Tuesday!
