Leonardo de Moura created Lean and co-created Z3. ---This episode is sponsored by Parallel.Parallel, where agents find answers: web search, extraction and deep research APIs built for AI agents.Start free with the Parallel MCP server and $5 of credits every month: https://parallel.ai/mlst?utm_source=creator&utm_medium=podcast&utm_content=MLST---Tim Scarfe talks with Leo about how Lean escaped its original audience, why dependent types and Mathlib made it useful to working mathematicians, and what happens when formal verification leaves the lab. De Moura explains the small trusted kernel and independent checkers, and gives his account of the recent Collatz incident, in which a purported proof was accepted by both Lean's official kernel and Nanoda, apparently by exploiting a different bug in each.---TIMESTAMPS:00:00:00 Cold open: the green checkmark can lie00:00:59 Cathedral or bazaar: who controls Lean's core?00:04:55 Why Lean's core stays small and protected00:08:07 The Slack purge, Brandolini's law and the Lean FRO00:11:12 The Collatz exploit: two kernels, two bugs00:16:44 More kernels, reward hacking and safety by transparency00:21:04 Sponsor: Parallel00:21:59 Kim Morrison, Claude and the zlib proof00:25:25 Can we specify complex systems?00:28:04 Specs change: proofs are cheaper to redo with AI00:31:27 From Lean 1 to Lean 400:34:57 Dependent types in plain terms00:37:25 Lean 4's extensibility and Mathlib's growth00:41:44 Mathlib as infrastructure: Formal Frontiers00:44:15 Creativity, abstraction and nut-sniping00:48:46 Breadcrumbs, not learning: what AI agents lack00:53:03 Competence without comprehension, and verified guardrails00:56:21 Is the human still the author?01:01:44 AlphaProof, LLMs and why certificates still matter01:06:38 What's next for Lean, and its legacy01:11:42 How to start learning Lean---REFERENCES:tool:[00:00:48] Leanhttps://lean-lang.org/[00:01:24] Mathlibhttps://github.com/leanprover-community/mathlib4[00:12:09] nanoda_libhttps://github.com/ammkrn/nanoda_lib[00:12:19] CollatzLeanhttps://github.com/xrchz/CollatzLean/blob/a79357462a33d2a6babd4cf6c8d8bcd25425d653/README.md[00:13:06] Lean issue 14576https://github.com/leanprover/lean4/issues/14576[00:13:21] Lean pull request 14577https://github.com/leanprover/lean4/pull/14577[00:13:45] nanoda_lib pull request 22https://github.com/ammkrn/nanoda_lib/pull/22[00:15:33] Lean comparatorhttps://github.com/leanprover/comparator[00:18:02] Lean4Leanhttps://github.com/digama0/lean4lean[00:19:50] ARC-AGI-3https://arcprize.org/arc-agi/3[00:21:59] lean-ziphttps://github.com/kim-em/lean-zip[00:29:45] CompCerthttps://compcert.org/[00:29:45] seL4https://www.sel4.org/[00:30:23] Z3https://github.com/Z3Prover/z3[00:38:10] Veilhttps://github.com/verse-lab/veil[00:38:10] Velvethttps://github.com/verse-lab/velvetorganization:[00:00:52] Lean FROhttps://lean-lang.org/fro/[00:42:39] Mathlib Initiativehttps://mathlib-initiative.org/about/person:[00:05:11] Ilya Sergeyhttps://ilyasergey.net/[00:10:31] Joachim Breitnerhttps://www.joachim-breitner.de/[00:32:58] Adam Chlipalahttps://adam.chlipala.net/[00:38:42] Kevin Buzzardhttps://www.ma.imperial.ac.uk/~buzzard/[01:10:16] Terence Taohttps://terrytao.wordpress.com/book:[00:08:19] The Proof in the Codehttps://us.macmillan.com/books/9780374620059/theproofinthecode/other:[00:10:05] Brandolini's lawhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brandolini%27s_law[00:45:33] A new result on unit distanceshttps://openai.com/index/model-disproves-discrete-geometry-conjecture/[01:01:08] Fermat's Last Theorem formalisationhttps://imperialcollegelondon.github.io/FLT/paper:[00:34:36] The Lean 4 theorem prover and programming languagehttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-79876-5_37---RESCRIPT:https://app.rescript.info/share/7d3d4a0059443236a01f6c9acbf4db58https://app.rescript.info/api/public/sessions/b007264c0ce89047/pdf

I asked for positive news this week. What I got was surveillance, a global humiliation, and a man duct taped to his seat at thirty thousand feet. We open with reporting that Homeland Security has been analyzing the financial data of American citizens, and that some units have used it to steer local police toward pretextual traffic stops. Banks have run keyword filters on transactions. Agencies have swept up bulk records from money transfer services. Credit reports, utility bills and location data get purchased outright from private brokers, which sidesteps the Fourth Amendment entirely. There is a term for where that ends up. Turnkey totalitarianism is a system where every pillar of mass surveillance is built and operational, waiting on one person to connect it. I could not steel man the argument that we are not already there. From there we get into age and capacity in elected office, Apple's attempt to certify that a photograph is real, and why current AI produces novel output but not novel thought. Then it lightens up. A competitive fitness scandal goes worldwide. An actor announces what he would do to people in a fight. A first class passenger gets restrained with zip ties and duct tape between Dallas and Newark. We close with 163 missing children recovered in Florida in four days.  Today's Sponsors:  Willies Remedies:  Order now at https://www.drinkwillies.com and use code CLEAREDHOT for 20% off your first order plus free shipping on orders over $95.

十年前，Snap 推出第一代 Spectacles。售价 129.99 美元、造型鲜艳、通过黄色自动售货机 Snapbot 限量销售，Evan Spiegel 甚至把它称作一个「toy」。十年后，Spectacles 变成了 SPECS，价格涨到 2195 美元，Snap 也不再满足于把一台相机戴到人脸上，而是想把它变成一台真正的空间计算机。 今年的 SPECS 重量从上一代的 226 克降到 132/136 克，FOV 提升到 51 度，并且第一次真正作为消费者产品出售。但另一面，130 多克仍然远重于普通眼镜，2195 美元的价格也注定它很难成为一件普通消费电子产品。 那么，Snap 花了十年做出的这副眼镜，究竟走到了哪里？这期节目，我们请刚刚现场体验过 SPECS 的泽霖，和长期关注 AR/XR 的开发者脑潘一起聊了聊。为什么 SPECS 明明取得了很大的工程进步，依然让人觉得离日常佩戴很远？如果我们不再要求 AR 眼镜全天候佩戴，它会不会反而变得更有用？当 AI 已经可以通过摄像头「看见」世界，人类究竟还需不需要眼前的这块屏幕？ 我们也从 SPECS 出发，聊到了今天整个 XR 行业面对的一个更大的问题：当苹果、Meta 和 Snap 都选择了不同的技术路线，下一代计算平台究竟应该长什么样？ 本期人物 王泽霖，「声动早咖啡」监制，本次 Snap Specs 发布活动现场体验者 脑潘，AR/XR 开发者、VR Play社区发起人 丁教Diane，「科技早知道」主播 时间轴 [02:30] 真正把 Specs 戴到脸上，是比想象中好，还是更差？ 130 多克依然明显重于普通眼镜，但实际重量分布和佩戴感受比预期更好 显示和空间交互已经可以完成不少 AR demo，但软件的流畅度和完成度仍然无法与 Vision Pro 相比 从「发布会看起来怎么样」到「真正戴起来怎么样」，几个人给 Specs 打出了完全不同的分数 [05:17] 2195 美元、130 多克，这副眼镜到底是卖给谁的？ Specs 想同时覆盖娱乐、生产力、AI、开发者和企业场景，很难用一个 killer use case 定义 相比 Ray-Ban Meta 的轻量日常路线和 Vision Pro 的重度空间计算路线，Specs 试图把更多能力直接塞进眼镜 当一款产品「什么都想做」，它也可能因此卡在不同产品形态的中间 [13:12] 为什么 AR 眼镜每解决一个问题，都可能制造另一个问题？ FOV、亮度、重量、续航、算力和发热彼此牵制，真正困难的是整套系统的 trade-off Specs 从上一代 226 克降到 132/136 克，减重约四成是明显的工程进步，但「进步很多」和「足够日常佩戴」是两个不同的问题 Optical See-Through 让人眼直接看到现实世界，现实世界本身没有显示延迟，因此虚拟物体的延迟和漂移会格外明显 [15:08] HoloLens 和 Magic Leap 都没解决的问题，Specs 为什么还要做？ 企业培训、工业操作和医疗等场景曾经被认为是 AR 最先落地的市场，但过去十年的商业化并不容易 Specs 的一个不同点，是 Snap 已经积累了 Lens Studio 和 AR 创作者生态，而不是从零开始寻找开发者 真正的问题不只是硬件能不能工作，而是开发者能否找到足够高频、足够有商业价值的使用场景 [29:58] 拼 Lego、装家具：如果不需要全天戴，Specs 会不会反而变得有用了？ 当 AI 能识别真实物体，再把下一步操作直接叠加在物体上，空间计算开始出现手机和普通 AI 眼镜难以替代的价值 AR 眼镜未必一定要像普通眼镜一样全天候佩戴，也可能更像「阅读镜」：只有需要空间计算的时候才拿起来 一旦使用时间从 8 小时变成 20 分钟，人们对重量、续航和外形的容忍度也会发生变化 [36:10] 从 129.99 美元的玩具到 2195 美元的电脑，Snap 花了十年 2016 年第一代 Spectacles 本质上还是第一人称相机；2019 年加入第二颗摄像头，开始获得深度信息 2021 年第四代第一次加入 AR 显示，2024 年第五代推出 Snap OS，并进一步成为一套空间计算平台 十年前 Snap 想把一个好玩的相机戴到人脸上；十年以后，它想把一台完整的空间计算机戴到人脸上 从「toy」到「computer」，Specs 的能力越来越强，但它需要回答的产品问题也越来越难 [42:07] AI 需要「眼睛」，但人真的需要一块屏幕吗？ 摄像头已经可以让 AI 理解用户看到的环境，因此「AI 需要视觉」并不天然意味着「用户需要 AR display」 Camera-only AI glasses、带摄像头的耳机和 AR 眼镜，代表的是不同的人机交互路线 Specs 必须证明 display + spatial computing 能创造纯摄像头设备无法提供的价值 空间指引、shared AR 和多人互动，可能是显示真正不可替代的场景 [52:21] 一副真正的大众 AR 眼镜，还要等多少年？ 限制 AR 眼镜的不只是产品设计，还有电池能量密度、芯片能效、散热、光学和材料等底层技术 对眼镜而言，比峰值算力更关键的问题可能是：在人脸能够接受的重量和温度里，究竟可以持续提供多少计算能力 今天的智能眼镜可能首先让消费者习惯摄像头和 AI 出现在脸上，但这条路线是否能直接走到完整的空间计算眼镜，仍然存在争议 [58:01] XR 行业已经没有「灯塔」了吗？ Quest 2 时代曾经存在相对明确的行业路线，但 Vision Pro 之后，一体式、分体式、OST、VST、AI 眼镜和空间计算头显同时发展 Snap、Meta 和苹果正在用不同方式回答同一个问题：下一代计算设备究竟应该把多少能力放在人脸上？ 没有明确答案让开发者更难下注，却也意味着 XR 再次进入技术路线百花齐放的阶段 Specs 未必已经给出答案，但它让下一代计算平台最难的几个 trade-off 变得非常具体 名词解释 AR（Augmented Reality，增强现实） 将数字内容叠加到用户看到的真实环境中，让虚拟信息与真实空间和物体发生关系。 Spatial Computing（空间计算） 让计算机理解用户所在的三维空间，并让数字内容与真实环境、物体和人的位置发生关系。除了显示，还涉及空间定位、环境理解、手势交互和多人共享空间等能力。 OST（Optical See-Through，光学透视） 用户通过透明镜片直接看到现实世界，同时由光学系统将虚拟图像叠加到视野中。Specs、HoloLens 等采用这一思路。 VST（Video See-Through，视频透视） 通过摄像头拍摄现实世界，再将现实画面与虚拟内容共同显示到屏幕上。Apple Vision Pro、Meta Quest 3 等属于这一类。 FOV（Field of View，视场角） 用户能够看到虚拟内容的视野范围。更大的 FOV 可以提供更完整的空间体验，但通常也会增加光学设计、体积、功耗等方面的工程难度。 Waveguide（光波导） AR 眼镜中将微型显示器产生的光引导到人眼前的核心光学组件。它会影响视场角、亮度、清晰度、光学效率以及眼镜的整体尺寸。 Motion-to-photon latency（运动到显示延迟） 从用户发生头部等运动，到显示系统根据运动更新对应画面之间的时间。对于 OST 设备，因为用户直接看到的现实世界本身没有显示延迟，虚拟内容的延迟和漂移会更加明显。 Snap OS Snap 为 Spectacles/Specs 打造的操作系统，用于运行 AR 体验并支持手势、空间交互等能力。 Lens Studio Snap 的 AR 创作和开发平台，开发者和创作者可以用它制作在 Snapchat 和 Specs 等设备上运行的 Lens 和 AR 体验。 幕后制作 监制：Yaxian 后期：迪卡 运营：George 设计：饭团 商业合作 声动活泼商业化小队，点击链接直达声动商务会客厅，也可发送邮件至 business@shengfm.cn 联系我们。 加入声动活泼 声动活泼正在招聘全职商务运营经理、早咖啡内容实习生和社群实习生，如果你也对播客行业的内容制作感兴趣，欢迎点击招聘入口 关于声动活泼 「用声音碰撞世界」，声动活泼致力于为人们提供源源不断的思考养料。 我们还有这些播客：声动早咖啡、声东击西、吃喝玩乐了不起、反潮流俱乐部、泡腾 VC、商业WHY酱、跳进兔子洞、不止金钱 欢迎在即刻、微博等社交媒体上与我们互动，搜索 声动活泼 即可找到我们。 期待你给我们写邮件，邮箱地址是：ting@sheng.fm 欢迎扫码添加声小音，在节目之外和我们保持联系。Special Guests: 王泽霖 and 脑潘.

Charlie and Rony open with Charlie's hands-on take on Snap's $2,200 Specs launch and Rony's theory on how big tech companies let smaller players pioneer risky new hardware first. From there, the conversation turns to a tense week in AI safety, sparked by Dario Amodei's call for frontier labs to slow down, and a sharp debate over whether the industry's talk of needing regulation is really about something else entirely. They close out the news with a look at how China is approaching AI development differently than the West, plus a genuinely stunning breakthrough in brain-computer interfaces.Jan Goetgeluk, founder and CEO of Virtuix, joins to talk about the company's path from a Shark Tank rejection to a recent Nasdaq listing (VTIX). Jan walks through Virtuix's VR treadmill business, the surprising overlap between gaming and fitness that's driving consumer sales, and why the company is leaning harder into defense contracts and location-based entertainment than the crowded consumer VR space. The conversation closes with what it's actually like running a public company day to day, and Jan's outlook for the next two years, including a possible move into autism therapy.Key Moments: [01:35] Charlie's hands-on impressions from the Snap Specs launch [04:35] Rony's theory: why big tech lets pioneers take the risk first [06:35] Dario Amodei's essay and the case for pacing frontier AI [08:35] Is AI safety talk really about dodging product liability?

The agentic era of software engineering began almost a year ago. And while much has changed in 2026, there's still a lot that hasn't been settled. One of the most important issues is how teams should collaborate. The idea of working with a spec may have considerable allure, but many questions remain: How should it be defined? Who owns it? How do we iterate with it? The fear of retreating back into waterfall is very real and requires vigilance. On this episode of the Technology Podcast, hosts Ken Mugrage and Caer Sanders are joined by former Thoughtworkers Cassie Shum (formerly VP of Ecosystem and Product Engineering at RelationalAI) and Tim Cochran (recently a Principal at AWS) to discuss their new company Praxa Inc., a venture shaped by the industry's need to rethink the way we collaborate and structure our work in a world of AI agents. They discuss today's challenges, how software engineering is changing and how Praxa can help organizations navigate this period of evolution. Learn more about Praxa: https://teaser.getpraxa.ai/

Today we talk with Max Tsymbal, winner of week one of Snap's CLAD Hackathon, about Packspace, a spatial packing assistant that helps users organise what to bring on a trip through Spectacles.Max explains how he used CLAD for ideation, planning, coding, UI iteration, and simulator-based testing, moving from a prompt to a working prototype in roughly ten hours. They also discuss the limits of simulation, why clear prompting and specification documents still matter, and how AI coding could bring chefs, designers, and other domain experts into Lens creation. Plus, Max previews a tool for recording and publishing spatial step-by-step guides.***CONNECT WITH OUR GUEST⁠

Charlie, Ted, and Rony open on Higgsfield's $400 million raise at a $5.4 billion valuation, and the uncomfortable gap between its strong revenue and a wave of user complaints about its terms of service (Charlie discloses he's a Higgsfield creative partner). From there: Snap's $2,195 Specs launch on September 16th, and Evan Spiegel's candid admission that he doesn't expect them to sell well, which Rony compares to Jensen Huang's decade-plus of staying the course before Nvidia's breakout. The group also digs into Epic Games quietly offloading Sketchfab and ArtStation to the much smaller KitBash, and a wide-ranging debate on AI filmmaking sparked by a Chatham House Rules event with Google and the American Film Institute, including Rony's memorable comparison of AI-native filmmakers to Skrillex versus the full-orchestra, Abbey-Road approach of traditional Hollywood.Barmak Heshmat, founder and CEO of Brelyon, joins to make the case for immersive displays that skip the headset entirely. A former head of optics at the AR company Meta (not Facebook) and MIT computational imaging researcher, Barmak explains Brelyon's curved monitor, which uses monocular depth to create what he calls "a window to the virtual world" you look through rather than wear. The conversation covers why enterprise, not consumer, is where the technology is scaling first, a published study with Toyota on video pass-through windshields that could eliminate car glass entirely, and Barmak's longer-term vision for light field displays as the natural evolution beyond stereoscopic 3D.Key Moments: [03:35] Higgsfield's $400M raise and the backlash over its terms of service [07:35] Snap's $2,195 Specs and the Jensen Huang long-game comparison [11:35] Epic Games sheds Sketchfab and ArtStation to KitBash [17:35] Inside a Chatham House Rules AI filmmaking summit with Google and AFI [21:35] The Skrillex vs. Beatles theory of AI-native filmmaking [28:35] Barmak Heshmat joins to tell us about building the Brelyon's headset-less display [33:35] How monocular depth creates a "window to the virtual world" [46:35] A published study with Toyota on video pass-through windshields [53:35] The future: light field displays and headsets as an accessory Hosted on Acast.

In this episode of Talking Industrial Automation, Lisa Richter sits down with Nicole Bojic, Founder and CEO of ILLI Agency, to explore the human side of B2B marketing and industrial automation buying decisions. Nicole explains why the best technology can lose to the technology a buyer actually understands, and why technical specifications, data, and ROI alone may not be enough to win the deal. Drawing from years of buyer research, she shares how fear, trust, risk, and internal decision-making shape purchasing decisions long before an RFQ ever arrives. The conversation also dives into how AI is changing the way industrial buyers discover and shortlist companies, why businesses need to create content around the real questions their customers are asking, and how smaller industrial firms can build visibility without trying to be everywhere. Nicole and Lisa discuss the shift from selling capabilities to understanding buyers, overcoming "pilot purgatory" when moving from IT to OT, and why companies should focus on building trust before the buying process officially begins. Tune in for an insightful conversation about buyer psychology, industrial automation marketing, AI-driven search, and the future of B2B technology sales.

What happens when a finance guy who's never heard of lithium takes a job in a small North Carolina town because it's near where his favorite author lived?Joe Lowry is the founder of Global Lithium LLC, host of the Global Lithium Podcast (239 episodes and counting), and author of the new memoir Lithium Confidential: Confessions of a Corporate Misfit. He spent 35 years in the industry — including years in Japan and China — and for a stretch in the 1990s he personally controlled essentially all of the lithium supply going into the world's first commercial lithium-ion batteries.This is a longer, less traditional episode for us, and it's worth every minute. Joe walks through the entire lithium cycle from rock to cathode, explains why the industry started as a hydrogen bomb program, and gives an unusually blunt read on where the industry is headed — including his line that there's no Smackover lithium without direct lithium extraction, and why he thinks the first real success there lands around 2029.There's also plenty here for students and early-career geologists: Joe's argument that you should learn the industry, not just deploy your geology skills, and his advice on what actually makes a career durable.Some things we get into:Why lithium was in Post-it Notes, blue jeans, and grease long before batteriesThe full flow sheet: spodumene → calcine → lithium sulfate → carbonate → hydroxide, and why the "midstream" means cathode, not chemicalsHard rock vs. Atacama brine vs. sedimentary (Thacker Pass) vs. Smackover oilfield brineWhy grade matters: 600 ppm Smackover vs. sub-100 ppm produced water (sorry, Marcellus)How the market went from 300,000 tonnes LCE in 2020 to nearly 2 million todayThe 2022 spike to $80,000/t and what happened afterWhy Joe called BS on the high-nickel/hydroxide narrative and was right about LFPSodium-ion: real use cases, or a CATL press release every time lithium ticks up?What "crappy brine" means, and the fraud problem in African spodumeneCommodity or specialty chemical?

Charlie, Ted, and Rony open with the White House's decision to keep its "voluntary" AI safety framework secret, despite it being co-written with the same companies it's meant to evaluate. The conversation turns into a real debate about why Congress has stepped back from its constitutional role in regulating AI, and whether that changes after November. From there: the EU's AI Act goes live with mandatory content labeling, OpenAI's frontier models jumping their sandbox to vandalize Hugging Face, and Disney's new deal letting TikTok creators remix its IP, following the collapse of its similar arrangement with OpenAI's Sora.Cortney Harding, founder of Friends With Holograms, joins for a wide-ranging back half. She makes the case that the backlash against Meta's camera-equipped smart glasses is disproportionate to any actual harm, and connects it to a broader "vibes are bad" moment in tech sentiment tied to layoffs and a shaky economy. The group digs into Snap's upcoming $2,500 Specs launch, why enterprise (not consumer) is the more realistic path for smart glasses right now, and Rony's long-view bet that XR has an "Nvidia moment" coming once the supply chain catches up. They close on AI's effect on jobs, UBI, and whether the social contract between tech companies and workers is already broken.Key Moments:[01:35] AI regulation news and the fight over Congress's role[09:35] EU AI Act goes live, plus AI models breaching their own sandboxes[13:35] Disney's TikTok deal and the fan-content strategy behind it[17:35] Cortney Harding joins and doesn't miss a beat[24:35] UBI, the broken social contract, and AI's effect on jobs[41:35] Snap's $2,500 Specs and the case for enterprise over consumer[52:35] Rony's prediction: XR's coming "Nvidia moment"Brought to you by Zappar and Mattercraft, the leading visual development environment for immersive 3D web experiences.

Google underwent a big AI shakeup this week, leaving a lot of people wondering whether there are big problems on team Gemini. David and Nilay start the show by discussing what's next for Jeff Dean and Demis Hassabis, before diving into the ways in which Google and Reddit have become existentially, problematically dependent on one another. After that, we talk through Disney's plan to turn Disney Plus into an everything app, and all the reasons we think that's a terrible idea and a sign of big problems in the streaming biz. Finally, in the lightning round, Brendan Carr is still a dummy, Snapchat wants AI out of your feed, and BMW has a Spider-Man to sell you.

Send us Fan MailBefore you blame the market, look at how your homes show up online. Chad Davies - founder of Davies Imaging Group (DIG), serving builders doing 500+ units a year across 28 markets - joins Anya Chrisanthon fresh off the Jeff Shore Sales and Marketing Leadership Summit, where his team captured the entire event from behind the camera.The view from the Summit Every conversation - on stage and at the bar - came back to the same theme: stop negotiating. Selling homes is no longer a price battle. Builders have cut as much as they can, and the differentiator now is how you capture buyer attention.The DIG story Chad photographed his first $2 million home at 17. Sixteen years later, DIG is a specialized team - photographers who only photograph, dedicated editors in Guadalajara ripping through post-production, virtual staging artists, and a separate video production discipline. Why? Because one person can't carry the whole weight, and the friction in builder photography lives at the front and back end: scheduling, communication, and turnaround time.What 28 markets reveal Some regions are ripping, others are slow - and the trends are shifting. California, which invented the twilight photography craze, now wants daytime shots. Lifestyle and amenity video is surging while standalone model video fades. And in competitive markets like Texas, builders are suddenly finding photography budget - because when you can't compete on price, location, or product, presentation is the only lever left.The spec home rant If your home exists, it needs real professional photos - not a rendering, not construction team phone pics. And if it's not selling within a month, stage the pictures. Chad's team is seeing homes that sat for a year sell in weeks after virtual staging. Buyers aren't buying a shell - they're buying a new lifestyle, and you can't show them that with an empty room. Your job as a marketer is to remove the imagination, not demand it.The virtual staging surprise The biggest fans of virtual staging aren't marketing teams - they're sales teams. When a stale listing gets staged, it renews the sales team's excitement to sell it. If you want to empower your salespeople, stage the sitting inventory.Where AI fits AI-generated video is a variation of a photo, not a replacement for video production. Use it to fill social channels and supplement your media strategy - but it's an "and," not an "or."The biggest untapped opportunity in builder content Mic up your construction team. The first big builder that embraces behind-the-scenes content from their superintendents - showing culture and quality instead of talking about it - is going to have a great year. As Chad puts it: you're not telling people your culture, you're showing them.Connect with Chad on LinkedIn or on Instagram (Chad Davies), and learn more at daviesimaging.com.About Anewgo Anewgo is an all-in-one new home sales and marketing platform.

Few people have had a greater influence on the alternative grading movement than Linda Nilson. In this episode, Sharona and Boz welcome the author of Specifications Grading and Specifications Grading 2.0 to reflect on the origins of one of the most widely adopted approaches to grading reform. Linda shares the experiences that led her to question traditional points-based grading, the ideas she combined to create specifications grading, and how an approach that began as a response to her own frustrations grew into an international movement embraced across disciplines. The conversation explores the philosophy behind specifications grading, the challenges of introducing a radically different grading system, and Linda's hopes for the future of grading reform as educators continue to rethink assessment in an era of rapid educational change.LinksPlease note - any books linked here are likely Amazon Associates links.

On this week's episode of @Betches, Sami, Jordana, and Aleen are sending you into summer with one last episode before their summer hiatus. They debate what actually makes someone a close friend, whether friendship "tiers" are real, and what crimes merit a visit in jail for. They once again speculate when the hell Taylor's wedding will be and pray it's not at MSG. Finally, they discuss whether Meta's new AI glasses are actually the future or just another tech fad comparable to Snap's Spectacles (yuck btw), and play a fun game of headbanz!
