Er soll ein Baustein sein gegen den Papierkram: der digitale Fahrzeugschein, also die Zulassungsbescheinigung für das Auto. Ende 2026 kommt der digitale Führerschein, die „Digitale Brieftasche“ Anfang 2027. Was dazu geplant ist.

The COP30 climate summit will open on November 10 in Belem, a city in Brazil's Amazon, as the rainforest continues to be threatened by deforestation. One reason is the mining of gold – essential for smartphones and computers. Peru is South America's leading producer of the precious metal. With prices reaching record highs, artisanal mines are operating at full capacity, polluting the rainforest in the process. In response, some are now trying to reduce the environmental impact of their activities and offering "clean" gold. FRANCE 24's Agathe Fourcade and Martin Chabal report, with Wassim Cornet.

Im Bereich zwischen Bahnhof Dorf und Parsennbahn gibt es regelmässig Verkehrsprobleme.

267 Milliarden Euro Schaden in nur einem Jahr – deutsche Unternehmen stehen unter Beschuss wie nie zuvor. 81% aller Firmen wurden bereits gehackt, fast zwei Drittel sehen ihre Existenz bedroht. Was früher Science-Fiction war, ist heute brutale Realität: Kriminelle Hacker verdienen Milliarden, während unsere digitale Welt zusammenbricht. Doch was passiert wirklich hinter den Kulissen? Wie einfach ist es, in fremde Systeme einzudringen? Und warum versagen alle Sicherheitsmaßnahmen? Mein nächster Gast Florian Hansemann kennt die Antworten – aus erster Hand. Als professioneller Hacker dringt er täglich in die bestgesicherten Systeme ein. Sein Job: Unternehmen zu zeigen, wie schutzlos sie wirklich sind. In diesem Gespräch enthüllt er die erschreckende Wahrheit über unsere digitale Sicherheit. Er erklärt, warum dein Handy eine Vollzeit-Wanze ist, wie Hacker in Minuten deine Geräte übernehmen können und warum selbst die besten Schutzmaßnahmen nutzlos sind. Eine Warnung: Nach diesem Gespräch wirst du nie wieder unbesorgt dein Smartphone benutzen können. ---------- Sponsoren: (WERBUNG) https://linktr.ee/ungeskriptet_werbepartner Aufnahmedatum: 1.

Should your child get a smartphone? Dr. Roger Smith doesn't offer a simple yes or no, but instead provides crucial questions to help you make this difficult decision. This episode guides you to think about your child's long-term functional needs and whether those needs can be met without a smartphone. Most importantly, you'll learn to evaluate your child's capacity for self-imposed limits and the vital role of parental support systems in navigating the challenges of modern technology.

Send us a textKennst du das? Der Arbeitstag ist vorbei, du kommst nach Hause und eigentlich sollte jetzt Ruhe sein. Aber dein Kopf arbeitet weiter. Der Körper ist müde, der Geist auf Dauerdrehzahl. Du bist fix und fertig und trotzdem nicht wirklich fertig. Feierabend. Ein wunderschönes Wort, oder? Es klingt nach Loslassen, nach Freiheit, nach Durchatmen. Doch für viele ist es längst kein erholsamer Zustand mehr, sondern nur eine verschobene Verlängerung des Arbeitstages. Man checkt noch schnell Mails, denkt an das Gespräch von heute, plant innerlich schon den nächsten Tag. Und während man äußerlich längst zu Hause ist, bleibt man innerlich im Dienstmodus. In dieser Podcast-Folge geht es um genau diesen Moment: wenn Entspannung einfach nicht mehr gelingt. Wenn Erschöpfung sich in den Feierabend zieht. Wenn selbst Freizeit wie eine Aufgabe wirkt. Warum fällt uns das Loslassen so schwer? Warum ist Abschalten keine Selbstverständlichkeit mehr, sondern eine Fähigkeit, die wir erst wieder lernen müssen? Ich spreche darüber, was hinter dieser dauerhaften Anspannung steckt und wie man erste Signale erkennt, bevor sie sich festsetzen. Es geht nicht um schnelle Tipps oder Wellness-Rezepte, sondern um einen ehrlichen Blick auf das, was viele im Gesundheits- und Klinikalltag (und nicht nur dort) erleben: das Gefühl, ständig funktionieren zu müssen, selbst dann, wenn man eigentlich längst Pause haben dürfte. Und wie man mit kleinen Ritualen Abhilfe schaffen kann.  Hör doch mal rein  Buchempfehlungen/Links: Endlich abschalten: Warum Urlaub vom Smartphone uns Zeit, Glück und Liebe schenkt von Catherine Price https://amzn.to/35NtqcV Das kleine Buch vom achtsamen Leben: 10 Minuten am Tag für weniger Stress und mehr  Gelassenheitvon Patrizia Collard https://amzn.to/3gPEsot Entspannungs-CD:Erquickendes Abschalten mittags und abends: Genussvolle Entspannung für aktive Menschenvon Rüdiger Dahlke https://amzn.to/3hdsCUj Webseite:https://www.cobaugh.de Email:https://www.cobaugh.de/kontakt/ YouTube: Heike Beck-Cobaugh - YouTube

Digital Detox für Familien – geht das überhaupt? Heute spreche ich über ein Thema, das sicherlich viele Eltern beschäftigt, manchmal mit schlechtem Gewissen, oft mit einem leisen Wunsch nach Veränderung: «Digital Detox» in der Familie. Also: Weniger Bildschirm. Weniger Dauer-Online-Sein. Mehr echte Verbindung, mehr Ruhe, mehr Präsenz. Das trifft übrigens nicht nur auf Familien sondern auf jede einzelne Person von uns zu. Doch wie realistisch ist das überhaupt – in einer Welt, in der Smartphones, Tablets und smarte Lautsprecher gefühlt überall sind?

Seit KI-Tools wie ChatGPT, Gemini oder Claude für alle zugänglich sind, hat sich die Art der Content-Erstellung grundlegend verändert. Texte entstehen schneller, günstiger – und oft auf Knopfdruck. Doch genau hier liegt ein Risiko: Wer sich blind auf KI-Inhalte verlässt, kann seiner Marke langfristig schaden. Denn KI versteht Inhalte nicht – sie berechnet Wahrscheinlichkeiten. Das führt dazu, dass sie zwar plausible, aber falsche oder verzerrte Informationen erzeugen kann. Dieses Phänomen nennt man Halluzination. Eine Studie der Europäischen Rundfunkunion (EBU) zeigt: ➡️ 45 % der getesteten KI-Antworten waren fehlerhaft ➡️ In 31 % der Fälle waren Angaben zu Quellen signifikant unzuverlässig Für Unternehmen bedeutet das: Content ja – aber nicht unkontrolliert. SEO bleibt weiterhin entscheidend, auch wenn KI-Suchergebnisse an Bedeutung gewinnen.

In deze aflevering hoor je alles over een nieuwe spannende week in Politiek Den Haag. Zo wordt vandaag duidelijk wie de nieuwe fractievoorzitter wordt van GroenLinks-PvdA. Later vandaag vindt er in Delft een primeur plaats: het eerste Nederlands Kampioenschap voor Witgoed- en Smartphone-reparateurs staat op het programma. Door dit kampioenschap te organiseren, probeert Techniek Nederland opnieuw de aandacht op het belang van reparatie en refurbishment te vestigen. Tot slot moeten pensioenfondsen voortaan btw heffen over premies die ze innen bij werkgevers. Dat is vooral in de zorg en het onderwijs een probleem, maar ook bij banken en verzekeraars. In die sectoren is btw namelijk niet aftrekbaar. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welchen Weg genau nehmen unsere Daten in Mobilfunknetzen, wenn wir unser Smartphone nutzen? Wie abhängig sind wir Europäer dabei von Huawei?

Unser Host Thomas Ramge spricht mit Prof. Dr. Stefan Valentin, Co-Gründer des Darmstädter Start-ups Open Radio Systems.

Ich muss gestehen, dass ich als Kind nicht die größte Leseratte war. Ich hab im Prinzip - außer Sportzeitungen - nichts gelesen. Bis auf eine Ausnahme: Die Bücher der Knickerbocker-Bande hab ich damals regelrecht verschlungen. Mich haben die Geschichten total gefesselt und ich konnte irgendwie nicht aufhören. Da ging es mir wie vielen anderen Kindern auf der Welt. Die Kinderkrimi-Buchserie hat sich nämlich millionenfach verkauft und wurde in 19 Sprachen übersetzt. Mastermind hinter der Knickerbocker-Bande ist Thomas Brezina. Den brauch ich an dieser Stelle nicht großartig vorstellen. Der gebürtige Wiener gehört mit über 70 Millionen verkauften Büchern zu den erfolgreichsten deutschsprachigen Kinder- und Jugendbuchautoren. Aber wie wurde Thomas Brezina zu jenem Menschen, der er heute ist? Wie war das Verhältnis zu seinen Eltern, speziell zu seinem Vater? Und wie sieht er die heutige Entwicklung mit Smartphones und der Digitalisierung? Ich durfte in dieser Folge einen Blick hinter seine Kulissen werfen und habe einige spannende Dinge erfahren. Und nun wünsche ich euch viel Spaß beim Anhören!

Online-Freundschaften können echte Begegnungen ergänzen, ersetzen sie aber nicht. Wie sich KI-Chatbots auf Freundschaften auswirken, muss noch erforscht werden, ein Risiko dabei: die Vermenschlichung der Maschine. Über digitale Kanäle Freundschaften zu pflegen oder neue zu knüpfen, kann eine gute Ergänzung sein zum realen Kontakt. Zur sozialen Verbindung tragen soziale Medien aber nach wissenschaftlicher Erkenntnis nicht sonderlich bei: «Es gibt immer noch einen Unterschied von der Begegnung mit echten Personen und der Begegnung online,» sagt Psychologin Jana Nikitin von der Universität Wien. Wie sich KI-Chatbots auf Freundschaften auswirken, muss erst noch erforscht werden, was aus der Partnerschaftsforschung über die Aktivität im Gehirn allerdings bereits bekannt ist und sich auf andere Beziehungen übertragen lässt: «Wir können nicht wirklich unterscheiden zwischen Gefühlen zu einem Chatbot und einer echten Person», sagt Psychologin Jana Nikitin von der Universität Wien.

Samsung introduced a prototype tri-fold smartphone at the APEC CEO Summit in South Korea, with plans to launch in late 2025. The device folds in two places, offering a 6.5-inch outer screen and a 10-inch display when unfolded. This design differs from Huawei's Z-shaped Mate XT, as Samsung's model folds inward in a G-shape. The tri-fold is expected to be priced higher than the Galaxy Z Fold 7, which starts at $2,000. Samsung has not released full specifications or demonstrated the folding mechanism, and the official release date remains unconfirmed.Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.

We've lived through technology revolutions before. Personal computers. The Internet. Smartphones. Social media. Each felt transformative at the time, reshaping how we work and communicate. But something fundamentally different is happening now. AI learns from every interaction and improves with each release. Yet the signals are confusing. Some pilots are failing, and the hype levels are off the scale. Meanwhile, some companies are reporting the potential for hundreds of millions in savings, capability benchmarks are doubling every seven months, and entire organizational structures are being reimagined around human-AI collaboration. So how do employers cut through the noise and prepare for such a fundamental shift? My guest this week is Michael Tchong, a futurist and founder of Ubertrends Academy. In our conversation, Michael explains what makes this revolution different, how to spot true long-term trends beyond the hype, and shares practical strategies for navigating the transformation ahead. In the interview, we discuss: Are we prepared for the coming disruption? Signals and Uber trends Why AI is unlike past revolutions Separating the hype from the real transformation signals Early adopters versus mainstream users Building hybrid human-AI organizations The coming wave of job displacement Practical upskilling strategies you need to implement Follow this podcast on Apple Podcasts.

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop talks with Richard Easton, co-author of GPS Declassified: From Smart Bombs to Smartphones, about the remarkable history behind the Global Positioning System and its ripple effects on technology, secrecy, and innovation. They trace the story from Roger Easton's early work on time navigation and atomic clocks to the 1973 approval of the GPS program, the Cold War's influence on satellite development, and how civilian and military interests shaped its evolution. The conversation also explores selective availability, the Gulf War, and how GPS paved the way for modern mapping tools like Google Maps and Waze, as well as broader questions about information, transparency, and the future of scientific innovation.

Richard Easton explains that the Navy and Air Force each had different ideas for navigation satellites in the 1960s. The Navy wanted mid-Earth orbits with autonomous atomic clocks, while the Air Force preferred ground-controlled repeaters in geostationary orbit. The eventual compromise in 1973 created the modern GPS structure—24 satellites in six constellations—which balanced accuracy, independence, and resilience.Atomic clocks made global navigation possible. Roger Easton's early insight was that improving atomic clock precision would one day enable real-time positioning. The hydrogen maser, developed in 1960, became the breakthrough technology that made GPS feasible. This innovation turned a theoretical idea into a working global system and also advanced timekeeping for scientific and financial applications.Civilian access to GPS was always intended. Contrary to popular belief, GPS wasn't a military secret turned public after the Korean airliner tragedy in 1983. Civilian receivers, such as TI's 4100 model, were already available in 1981. Reagan's 1983 announcement merely reaffirmed an existing policy that GPS would serve both military and civilian users.The Gulf War proved GPS's strategic value. During the 1991 conflict, U.S. and coalition forces used mostly civilian receivers after the Pentagon lifted “selective availability,” which intentionally degraded accuracy. GPS allowed troops to coordinate movement and strikes even during sandstorms, changing modern warfare.Secrecy and innovation were deeply intertwined. Easton recounts how classified projects like GRAB and POPPY—satellites disguised as scientific missions—laid technical groundwork for navigation systems. The crossover between secret defense projects and public science fueled breakthroughs but also obscured credit and understanding.Ending selective availability unleashed global applications. When the distortion feature was turned off in May 2000, GPS accuracy improved instantly, leading to new industries—geocaching, precision agriculture, logistics, and smartphone navigation. This marked GPS's shift from a defense tool to an everyday utility.Innovation's future may rely on decentralization. Reflecting on his father's era and today's landscape, Easton argues that bureaucratic “big science” has grown sluggish. He sees promise in smaller, independent innovators—helped by AI, cheaper satellites, and private space ventures like SpaceX—continuing the cycle of technological transformation that GPS began.

Batteries have become an essential component of our daily life. They power our smartphones, laptops, tablets, and many of the cars around us. They are also key to the renewable energy transition. Building better batteries requires the design of materials whose chemical composition and structure evolve drastically on charge and discharge, yet those changes must be perfectly reversible for the device to sustain hundreds or thousands of charge-discharge cycles. Raphaële Clément, Associate Professor of Materials Department at UC Santa Barbara, explains why this is a challenging task that necessitates an atomic-level understanding of the inner workings of battery materials. Clément is working to establish materials design rules and optimize materials processing approaches to advance electrochemical energy storage. Series: "GRIT Talks" [Science] [Show ID: 41031]

This week we talk about entanglements, monopolies, and illusory money.We also discuss electrification, LLMs, and data centers.Recommended Book: The Extinction of Experience by Christine RosenTranscriptOne of the big claims about artificial intelligence technologies, including but not limited to LLM-based generative AI tech, like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini, is that they will serve as universal amplifiers.Electricity is another universal amplifier, in that electrifying systems allows you to get a lot more from pretty much every single thing you do, while also allowing for the creation of entirely new systems.Cooking things in the kitchen? Much easier with electricity. Producing things on an assembly line? The introduction of electricity allows you to introduce all sorts of robotics, measuring tools, and safety measures that would not have otherwise been available, and all of these things make the entire process safer, cheaper, and a heck of a lot more effective and efficient.The prime argument behind many sky-high AI company valuations, then, is that if these things evolve in the way they could evolve, becoming increasingly capable and versatile and cheap, cooking could become even easier, manufacturing could become still faster, cheaper, and safer, and every other aspect of society and the economy would see similar gains.If you're the people making AI, if you own these tools, or a share of the income derived from them, that's a potentially huge pot of money: a big return on your investment. People make fortunes off far more focused, less-impactful companies and technologies all the time, and being able to create the next big thing in not just one space, but every space? Every aspect of everything, potentially? That's like owning a share of electricity, and making money every time anyone uses electricity for anything.Through that lens, the big boom in both use of and investment in AI technologies maybe shouldn't be so surprising. This represents a potentially generational sea-change in how everything works, what the economy looks like, maybe even how governments are run, militaries fight, and so on. If you can throw money into the mix, why wouldn't you? And if that's the case, the billions upon billions of dollars sloshing around in this corner of the tech world make a lot of sense; it may be curious that there's not even more money being invested.Belief in that promise is not universal, however.A lot of people see these technologies not as the next electricity, but maybe the next smartphone, or perhaps the next SUV.Smartphones changed a whole lot about society too, but they're hardly the same groundbreaking, omni-powerful upgrade that electricity represents.SUVs, too, flogged sales for flailing car companies, boosting their revenues at a moment in which they desperately needed to sell more vehicles to survive. But they were just another, more popular model of what already came before. There's a chance AI will be similar to that: better software than came before, for some people's use-cases—but not revolutionary, not groundbreaking even on the scale of pocketable phone-computers.What I'd like to talk about today are the peculiar economics that seem to be playing a role in the AI boom, and why many analysts and financial experts are eyeballing these economics warily, worrying about what they maybe represent, and possibly portend.—The term ‘exuberance,' in the context of markets, refers to an excitement among investors—sometimes professional investors, sometimes casual investors, sometimes both—about a particular company, technology, or financial product type.The surge in interest and investment in cryptoassets during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, for instance, including offshoot products like NFTs, was seemingly caused by a period of exuberance, sparked by the novelty of the product, the riches a few lucky insiders made off these products, and the desire by many people—pros and consumer-grade investors—to get in on that action, at a moment in which there wasn't as much to do in the world as usual.Likewise, the gobs of money plowed into early internet companies, and the money thrown at companies laying fiberoptic cable for the presumed boom in internet customers, were, in retrospect, at least partly the consequence of irrational exuberance.In some cases these investors were just too early, as was the case with those cable-laying companies—the majority of them going out of business after blowing through a spectacular amount of money in a short period of time, and not finding enough paying customers to fund all that expansion—in others it was the result of sky-high valuations that were based on little beyond the exuberance of investors who probably should have known better, but who couldn't get past their fear of missing out on the next big thing.In that latter case, that flow of money into early dotcom startups did fund a few winners that survived the eventual bursting of that bubble, but the majority of companies tagged with those massive valuations went out of business in part because their valuations were based in part on optimism, hot air, and illusory financials.Which is to say, their financials were based on a lot of money being added to their account sheets and tallied in the places investors would see those numbers, but the numbers didn't mean what most people thought they meant.A company could receive tens of millions of dollars in orders, for instance, but that money and those orders might never be received and fulfilled, or that money might be mostly illusory: maybe it was borrowed from another company to spend on advertising, and that money would then go right back out the door, to the company from which it was borrowed, to pay for their ad services.That kind of arrangement could be beneficial, as the company doing the borrowing might give up a relatively small number of shares in exchange for money, which looks good on its balance sheet, especially if the money is given at a high valuation, even if that money was mostly just a loan from a company providing ad services, with the full knowledge that money would then be spent on their own ad services. And the ad company giving the money could usually afford to buy in at a high valuation, because it knows it will get that money right back, and when it does, it will get to record that money as income on its own balance sheets.So Company A gets millions of dollars from Company B, that money is then paid to Company B for some type of service, and both companies get to record favorable figures on their accounting sheets, as if real sales took place and real outside money changed hands, despite it being a circular move, with very little or no actual value being created.These sorts of relationships are also often good for investors in companies that do this sort of thing, because it makes their investments, the companies they've bought into, look even more valuable.Check it out, Company A, which I own shares in, is worth more than it was last month because of all the business it's conducting, and because this other company bought into it at a higher price per share than I paid! Even though that increase in valuation is predicated on circular financing, the numbers still go up, and they go up for everyone involved, so there's little reason to crack down on this not illegal, but shady behavior, and even less reason to want anyone else to know about it, because then they might not add their own money to the circular money-cycling, number-increasing machine.The major concern amongst some analysts right now is that the AI boom, especially in the United States, might be essentially this kind of circular cycle, but much larger than previous versions of the same.In the US right now, investment in AI infrastructure like data centers accounts for a huge portion of overall growth—the numbers vary, depending on who you ask and what numbers they look at, but some say that about 90% of total US economic growth, and around 80% of US stock market growth, are predicated on these sorts of investments this past year. Without these investments, the US economy would be basically flat, or worse, and the US stock market would be flailing as well.This situation isn't ideal whatever the specifics, as too much reliance on just one industry, or one small collection of industries dominated by just a handful of companies and their investors, makes for a precarious financial foundation.If anything goes wrong with just one company, the whole house of cards could collapse. And if anything goes wrong with the industry, things could get even worse, and fast. All that investment, all that construction, all those employees and all that money sloshing around could disappear, could stop being spent, could make all those numbers fall and fall and fall more or less overnight.If this industry is in fact in a bubble, and if it's being propped up by this kind of circular financing, where companies are fluffing up their own and each other's accounting books by rotating the same bundle of money and on-paper money from company to company to company, that would portend pretty bad things for the US economy and market, if anyone involved stumbles, even just a little.This is why recent deals between the biggest players in this space are raising so many eyebrows, and causing so much sweat to bead on so many foreheads.In September of 2025, ChatGPT-maker OpenAI announced it had formalized a $100 billion investment deal with AI chipmaker Nvidia, the latter expanding on its existing investment in the former. In October, OpenAI announced it was purchasing billions of dollars worth of AI hardware from Nvidia-rival AMD, and that it's taking a 10% stake in the company.Microsoft is already heavily invested in OpenAI, to the tune of $13 billion; it takes 49% of OpenAI's profits, and gets more than that until its original investment is paid back. Microsoft also accounted for nearly 20% of Nvidia's annualized revenue, as of the fourth quarter of 2025.Oracle, another computing company which has become hugely influential in this space due to its investment in cloud-based AI datacenters, has a $300 billion deal with OpenAI for future infrastructure buildouts and access, and OpenAI's Stargate datacenter project was co-funded by Oracle and SoftBank. Nvidia also owns part of CoreWeave, which is an AI infrastructure supplier for OpenAI, and which has Microsoft as a massively important customer.All of which is very…tangly. It's an interconnected mess, and OpenAI and Nvidia are at the center of it, but there are a lot of weak spots, threads that, if pulled, would cause the whole thing to unravel. Which is why this feels like such a dangerous setup to many analysts right now.Consider that in 2025 alone, OpenAI has made around $1 trillion-worth of AI deals. A lot of these deals are plans to invest: commitments to buy data center construction or the use of data center bandwidth, or they're financial ties with competitors, clients, and providers—companies that would otherwise be competing with, selling to, and buying from each other, rather than linking arms and creating financial and infrastructural interdependencies.Many of these deals are predicated on debt and what are generally considered to be over-inflated IPO valuations, too: money that isn't money in the traditional, accounting-book sense, in other words. Numbers that make activity, use, and income for these companies look a lot bigger than they concretely are, on balance sheets, which in turn helps their investment numbers go up up up.This dynamic has become overt enough that many of the biggest investors in AI companies, and the heads of said companies, like Sam Altman of OpenAI, have said, outright, that it's probably a bubble, and that a lot of companies will probably go under in the relatively near future. No one knows when, but it's a good thing, they're fond of saying, because that shakeout will kill off the deadweight, allow the survivors to scoop up their former competitors' assets at fire sale prices, and the whole industry will be further centralized around just a handful of the best and the most impactful, just like in the post-dotcom years. Monopolies and mini-monopolies, which, for the people creating and profiting from those monopolies, at least, seems like a good thing.That optimism glosses over what those in-between years look like, though, especially for smaller investors, employees who are laid off, en masse, and the folks who aren't profiting directly from the surviving business entities, and who see their stock portfolios collapse and overall growth in their country decrease.Most of the stories in the tech world right now in some way tie back to the promise and concerns surrounding AI. It's become such a big story because there's a chance it will be the next electricity, but there's also a chance the warning signs we're seeing are real, and things will get a lot worse before they maybe, possibly, for some people, at some point, get better.Show Noteshttps://finance.yahoo.com/news/a-20-billion-clock-is-ticking-for-openai-as-microsoft-talks-turn-fractious-130006071.htmlhttps://www.sfgate.com/tech/article/circular-deals-bay-area-tech-21089538.phphttps://www.theguardian.com/business/2025/oct/08/openai-multibillion-dollar-deals-exuberance-circular-nvidia-amdhttps://www.ft.com/content/950e3a36-7141-4426-b7c5-08fad5d83919https://finance.yahoo.com/news/very-troubling-ais-self-investment-spree-sets-off-bubble-alarms-on-wall-street-160524518.htmlhttps://www.cnbc.com/2025/10/15/a-guide-to-1-trillion-worth-of-ai-deals-between-openai-nvidia.htmlhttps://insights.som.yale.edu/insights/this-is-how-the-ai-bubble-burstshttps://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cz69qy760weohttps://www.nbcnews.com/business/economy/openai-nvidia-amd-deals-risks-rcna234806https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-10-08/the-circular-openai-nvidia-and-amd-deals-raising-fears-of-a-new-tech-bubblehttps://flowingdata.com/2025/10/13/circular-deals-among-ai-companies/https://www.nytimes.com/2025/10/07/business/dealbook/openai-nvidia-amd-investments-circular.htmlhttps://sherwood.news/markets/analyst-a-lot-more-disclosure-needed-on-these-circular-ai-deals/https://www.barrons.com/articles/nvidia-microsoft-openai-circular-financing-ai-bubble-5d9a4e7chttps://www.investopedia.com/wall-street-analysts-ai-bubble-stock-market-11826943https://www.goldmansachs.com/insights/articles/ai-may-start-to-boost-us-gdp-in-2027https://finance.yahoo.com/news/most-us-growth-now-rides-213011552.html This is a public episode.
