Assistant A.D. for Olympic Sports Performance Blake Talos knows a thing or two about Tech, and especially the Dunkin' Dogs. Talos details his journey to Tech in the summer of 2017 and how his connection with Talvin Hester has grown since. Talos oversees more than just the sports performance side for men's basketball, though. He shares his management style of a small team of others who report to him and also some of the differences among other sports like bowling. Talos brings his midwestern grit to a conversation that touches on the family he's built while overcoming the challenges of pursuing his profession and temporarily being away from the woman he'd eventually marry. Plus, Talos describes the developmental processes and benchmarks he values with student-athletes, especially men's basketball.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Salut, ihr enthemmten Schmackofatze. Willkommen zu unseren attraktiven Schattenspielen. Leider haben wir den Überblick verloren und verzweifeln an der Bürokratie. Aber immerhin kennen wir unseren Platz der Ahnungslosigkeit, Kleine Service-Info: In Breaking Bad geht es um Drogen. In dieser Folge gibt's Memes unter Wasser und Matthias unterm Radar, sowie Narzissten als Vorbilder und Frühstücksgespräche über Frauenkörper im Kapitalismus. Bitte keine verdächtigen Rückfragen dazu. Wir stellen uns konsequent einem Scheißproblem mit unserer KI-Liebe und kommen auf dialektische Boykott-Gedanken. Wenn ihr Tipps gegen Google loswerden wollt, schreibt sie gern ins offene Google Dokument. Außerdem erfahrt ihr alles über Alpina, denn wir opfern Zeit und Hingabe für unerkannten Luxus. Aber ohne direkten Profit. Ist euch schon das rote dystopische VW-Logo aufgefallen? Während Iris heute zwischen Automagazin und Kika hin- und herwechselt, wünscht sich Matthias eine Klepto-Flatrate und entdeckt seine Schüchternheit, wenn jemand das Internet vollscheißt. Bitte schnell wieder den Laden verlassen, bevor Talos kommt. Sollte er kommen, einfach Schraube aus seiner Ferse drehen und das Abomodell kündigen. Stattdessen können wir auch mit Charlie Chaplin 700 mal denselben Moment drehen. Du möchtest uns eine Sprachnachricht für den Podcast schicken?

In this episode of Talos Takes, Amy is joined by William Largent (Cisco Talos) and Lou Stella (Splunk) for a "double-header" discussion. With the recent release of the Cisco Talos 2025 Year in Review and the Splunk Top 50 Cybersecurity Threats report, we're breaking down the most critical trends that shaped the security landscape last year — all based on Cisco telemetry, Talos' original research, and Talos Incident Response engagements.From the professionalization of ransomware-as-a-service to the persistent challenge of decade-old vulnerabilities, this episode moves beyond the headlines to provide a practical roadmap for defenders. You'll get tips on how to prioritize your defenses and reduce your attack surface for the year ahead.Talos 2025 Year in Review: https://blog.talosintelligence.com/2025yearinreview/Splunk Top 50 Cybersecurity Threats: https://www.splunk.com/en_us/campaigns/top-50-security-threats.html

Casi todo el mundo quiere perder grasa y bajar de peso y casi todo el mundo piensa que estas 5 cosas les ayudan a hacerlo, pero lo irónico que es que en lugar de ayudar, en realidad están arruinando tu progreso y hoy te voy a explicar cuáles son estas cosas y qué hacer en su lugar para que no te afecten y puedas perder grasa de una manera simple y eficiente. Prohibir alimentos Si quieres perder peso, el primer paso de mucha gente es permitir unos alimentos y prohibir otros. Esto suena bien en principio, pero el problema que tiene permitir unos alimentos es que estás prohibiendo otros y cuando prohíbes algo lo haces más atractivo. Así que cuando te dices que ya no puedes comer esto, automáticamente hace que eso lo desees aún más. Y eso es como agitar una lata de refresco, vas acumulando una presión que cuantos más alimentos prohibas más agitas la lata y más presión metes hasta que la lata revienta. Y en ese momento es cuando vas a abandonar y te vas a inflar a todos esos alimentos que hasta ahora habías prohibido porque el cuerpo te los va a pedir más. ¿Cuál es la solución? Lo he dicho siempre: Crearte tu plan de alimentación. Si te creas tu plan de alimentación metiendo los alimentos que tú quieras, no etiquetas a los alimentos como prohibido y permitido y tienes la confianza de que estás comiendo lo que quieres comer y en el caso de que algún alimento te atraiga siempre lo puedes incluir en tu plan de alimentación, pero esto solo lo puedes hacer cuando te has diseñado tú mismo el plan de alimentación. Y hacerlo es muy sencillo, puedes usar cualquier herramienta, aunque yo te recomiendo que te descargues el planificador nutricional porque con el planificador no solamente vas a poder diseñarte un plan de alimentación óptimo para ti, sino que también vas a poder hacer una evaluación de tu dieta actual y ver cómo podrías mejorarla. Usar el ejercicio como moneda de cambio El siguiente hábito saludable que en realidad es una trampa, es el ejercicio físico. Y no es que el ejercicio sea una trampa, es que he visto miles de veces cómo se ha usado el ejercicio físico para justificar un comportamiento posterior. Lo típico de que traen un pastel a la oficina porque es el cumpleaños de alguien y dices vale, me como el pastel porque ya fui esta mañana al gimnasio. Y sin darte cuenta conforme más actividad física haces, más licencias te permites con la excusa de que ya lo has quemado o que lo vas a quemar más tarde y esto no funciona así. El ejercicio nunca es una moneda de cambio para sabotear o empeorar tu alimentación. No haces ejercicio para ganarte la cena de esta noche porque no eres un hámster corriendo en una rueda. Comer de forma intuitiva El siguiente hábito mal entendido es el de comer de forma intuitiva. Esto siempre me ha parecido muy jedi porque al mismo tiempo que hay gente diciendo que tienes que escuchar a tu cuerpo, el cuerpo lo que te está pidiendo es nocilla. Y no es porque haya algo malo en tu cuerpo, es porque la nocilla está buena. Y si me das a elegir entre nocilla y brócoli, me voy a comer la nocilla 1.000 veces. Por eso necesitas un plan de alimentación e incluso si metes la nocilla dentro de tu plan de alimentación, necesitas controlar cuánta. Porque de nuevo, si dejas que tu cuerpo determine cuánta nocilla quieres, tu cuerpo la va a querer toda. Y aunque comer de forma intuitiva pueda ser una estrategia útil para algunos, en realidad es inútil y pésima para muchos. Es como si tienes un negocio y andas justo de dinero y llega un hippie de estos de mindfulness y te dice que no te preocupes y que gastes en tu negocio de forma intuitiva. Te vas a ir a la ruina porque cualquier negocio debería tener un control de los ingresos y los gastos y tal vez si el negocio te va muy bien y no eres muy gastón, gastar de forma intuitiva te pueda servir, pero para la mayoría de los negocios no es un buen consejo. E incluso para ese que pueda irle bien gastando de forma intuitiva, le iría mejor si controlara lo que gasta. Pues con la alimentación ocurre lo mismo, comer de forma intuitiva es precisamente el problema que has tenido hasta ahora, no es la solución. Comer sano no significa perder peso Y muy ligado con esto, tenemos el mítico hábito autoengañado de «comer sano». Todo el mundo cree que en su casa se come sano, pero si te desnudas y te miras al espejo, el espejo diría otra cosa. Y esto es porque los alimentos «sanos» no tienen propiedades quemagrasas, y comer un alimento considerado «sano» no es tener carta blanca para perder grasa, porque puedes comer muy sano y engordar y comer muy poco sano y adelgazar. Por eso es imprescindible pesar lo que comes, independientemente de que sea más o menos sano. Si quieres bajar de peso, necesitas pesar la comida, porque si no lo haces estarás toda la vida pensando que tú comes sano pero teniendo sobrepeso al mismo tiempo. Cosa que es una contradicción, porque el sobrepeso es una consecuencia directa de tu alimentación y si tienes sobrepeso tu alimentación no puede ser sana, porque si lo fuera no tendrías sobrepeso. Así que pesa lo que comes y no te quedes solo en que tú «comes sano» porque el qué comes es tan importante como el cuánto comes. Y de hecho para perder grasa el cuánto comes es más importante que el qué comes. Confundir funcionar con no funciona Y por último, lo menos saludable que hay para una persona es que confunda funcionar con no funcionar. Es decir, cuando intentas bajar de peso y usas alguna estrategia o dieta para conseguirlo, es habitual que consigas perder peso. Porque las estadísticas dicen que las personas no tienen problemas para bajar de peso, tienen problemas para mantener ese peso perdido. Así que es fácil que la gente use una estrategia que le haga perder peso pero que no le permita mantener ese peso perdido y piense que esa estrategia ha funcionado. De forma que la próxima vez que quieras perder peso uses la misma estrategia, cuando está claro que no ha funcionado, porque si hubiera funcionado no tendrías que volver a perder ese peso corporal. Esto me ocurre mucho con las dietas cetogénicas, he tenido muchos clientes con un sobrepeso actual que afirman que en algún momento usaron dietas cetogénicas y consiguieron bajar de peso, así que cuando quieren bajar de peso hacen una dieta cetogénica creyendo que funciona sin darse cuenta de que si realmente hubiera funcionado la seguirían manteniendo y no tendrían que volver a empezar otra vez. Y esto sucede porque la gente confunde funcionar y no funcionar. Si algo funciona es porque has conseguido integrarlo en tu estilo de vida, si no es así es que no ha funcionado y la forma más simple para prever si algo va a funcionar o no es preguntarte ¿Sería capaz de mantener esta estrategia durante un año entero? Y si la respuesta es que no, ya sabes que eso no va a funcionar. Y si eres capaz de evitar estas 5 trampas de la pérdida de peso, estarás por delante de casi todo el mundo que diariamente empieza un proyecto de cambio físico o pérdida de grasa y que inevitablemente a los 4 días tiene que abandonar normalmente por alguno de estos errores que la gente sigue viendo como normal e incluso como saludable. Pero ni es normal, ni es saludable. Origen

I'm Dom Jackman. I founded Escape the City in 2010 to help people leave corporate jobs and find work that matters. 16 years later, 500k+ professionals have used the platform - mostly people 5-15 years into careers at places like McKinsey, Deloitte, Google, the big banks - who feel a growing gap between what they do all day and what they actually care about. I'm not from the EA community. I'm writing this because I think there's a real overlap between the people I work with and what the EA talent ecosystem actually needs. I want to test that before investing serious time in it. What I've noticed Reading through talent discussions on this forum, there's a consistent theme: the pipeline is strongest for early-career people. 80,000 Hours does great work for students and recent grads. Probably Good provides broad guidance. BlueDot, MATS, Talos build skills for specific cause areas. But mid-career professionals with real commercial experience keep coming up as underserved. The "Gaps and opportunities in the EA talent & recruiting landscape" post nails it: these people "don't have 'EA capital,' may be poorly networked and might feel alienated by current messaging." The post calls for "custom entry [...] ---Outline:(00:51) What Ive noticed(01:40) What I see every day(02:28) What Im thinking about building(03:24) Honest questions(04:39) Not looking for funding(04:58) Artifacts --- First published: February 11th, 2026 Source: https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/H9pb6DEasgzjCff9a/500k-mid-career-professionals-want-to-do-more-good-with --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO.

Greek mythology has a way of cycling back. Every generation seems to take a turn with these stories, reshaping them to fit the tools and tastes of the moment. With a new version of The Odyssey directed by Christopher Nolan on the horizon, it feels like a good time to revisit a few earlier attempts. Not the definitive versions. Just four films that each capture a different moment in how the myths were staged.Jason and the ArgonautsDirected by Don Chaffey and brought to life by the stop motion work of Ray Harryhausen, this remains the standard for mythological adventure on film.The skeleton fight is still the showcase. Harryhausen animated seven sword fighting skeletons by hand, frame by frame, matching choreography that had already been filmed with live actors. It took months to complete just a few minutes of screen time. The patience shows. The movement has weight and timing that still feels precise.There is also Talos, the bronze giant, who creaks to life in a way that feels mechanical and ancient at the same time. No digital polish. Just careful craft. The film was not a major hit in 1963, but it built its reputation through television airings and revival screenings. Filmmakers like Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson have pointed to it as an influence.Clash of the TitansNearly twenty years later, Harryhausen returned for what would be his final feature. Released in 1981, the same summer as Raiders of the Lost Ark, it feels like a bridge between eras.Medusa is the standout. Instead of legs she has a serpentine body, and the sequence plays almost like a horror film, full of shadow and flickering light. Harryhausen again handled the creature effects himself, at a time when optical and early digital techniques were starting to change the industry.The cast gives the film a formal tone. Laurence Olivier plays Zeus and Maggie Smith appears as Thetis. There is also Bubo, the small mechanical owl added after the success of Star Wars. Even at the time some viewers were unsure about that addition. It says a lot about where fantasy films were headed in the early 1980s.HerculesDirected by Luigi Cozzi and starring Lou Ferrigno, this version of Hercules leans into spectacle in a way that is sometimes baffling and sometimes charming.Ferrigno had already been known for playing the Hulk on television, so casting him as Hercules made sense on a physical level. The film itself mixes Greek myth with science fiction imagery, including cosmic visuals and creatures that feel closer to Italian fantasy cinema than to Homer.It was part of a cycle of sword and sandal films in the early 1980s, many of them international co productions designed for global markets. The effects are uneven, but there is sincerity here. It commits to its vision without irony.The OdysseyDirected by Andrei Konchalovsky and starring Armand Assante, this two part television adaptation aired in 1997 as an event production.The format allows it to cover more of the journey than most feature films attempt. The Cyclops sequence and the Sirens episode stand out, helped by visual effects that were ambitious for network television at the time. The production won an Emmy for visual effects and reflects a brief period when large scale myth adaptations were being mounted for prime time audiences.Watching it now, you can see both its limits and its effort. It wants to treat the source material seriously, without reducing it to spectacle alone.Taken together, these films show how the same source material can shift with the era. Stop motion craft in the 1960s. Transitional fantasy in the early 1980s. International genre filmmaking. Large scale television in the 1990s.When Nolan releases his Odyssey, it will enter a long line of attempts to translate these myths into something contemporary. Revisiting these earlier versions is a way to see how each generation solved the same problem with different tools.They are worth tracking down. Not because they are perfect, but because each one reflects a moment when someone decided these ancient stories were still worth staging carefully.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

Robinhood isn't just adding another crypto feature—it's assembling a new exchange stack: stock tokens, an Ethereum L2 built for real-world assets, and a wallet that can plug into DeFi. Johann Kerbrat (GM of Crypto at Robinhood) joins Bankless to unpack what “24/7 markets” actually requires, why liquidity and routing are the hidden battleground for tokenized equities, and how “Certified by Robinhood” could become a distribution moat for onchain apps. Along the way, they compare Robinhood's approach to tokenization with the NYSE's 24/7 tokenized platform plans and Nasdaq's tokenized securities proposal, and dig into what U.S. regulatory clarity would need to unlock stock tokens stateside.

The new year is here! And so are the attacks. The first full week of 2026 brought us new research from Cisco Talos on a China-nexus APT group called UAT-7290 that is expanding its targeting and serving as an initial access group as well as a cyber espionage team (3:02). There is also some great data from GreyNoise on the attack volume from actors trying to exploit the React2Shell vulnerability from December (8:26). The volume is holding steady at more than 300,000 sessions per day, which is...high.Talos report: https://blog.talosintelligence.com/uat-7290/GreyNoise report: https://www.greynoise.io/blog/cve-2025-55182-react2shell-opportunistic-exploitation-in-the-wild-what-the-greynoise-observation-grid-is-seeing-so-farSupport the show

Robots and automata have been with humans in one form or another for thousands of years. From ancient Egyptian illusionary statutes to Ancient Greek steam or air powered birds, even programmable carts and theatrical figures, up to near-modern mechanisms like the Digesting Duck in 1739 France, the 1770 Austrian chess robot, the 1773 Silver Swan in England, the 1795 Tipu's Tiger of India and the many robots of far east Asia. As early as the 8th century BC, the Chinese were using wooden mechanisms for burial objects, centuries before the Greek myth of a giant mechanical Talos. Long before European machines that are hardly remembered today, the Japanese had mechanical dolls called Nashiki karakul, which served tea and entertained every level of Edo society. None of this history is hidden, and part of the problem in deciphering what it means is our definition of words like robot, machine, giant, myth etc. However, as with technology today where glorified search engines are believed to be sentient intelligence, there were probably many in the ancient world who saw these devices as supernatural. The vast majority probably saw them for what they were though - entertainment. Although the value in such mechanisms has largely been lost today, or simply evolved or transitioned into something more contemporary, our modern use of similar technologies will likely be looked at by a future generation in the same way that we look back on an apparently lost part of human history. The modern popular culture, and conspiracy, perception of the past is that anything considerably advanced must be part of a lost civilization or alien, perhaps Tartarian specifically. But the printing press dates to 1440 and the cotton gin to 1793, two inventions that mechanically revolutionized the world in a way equal to modern phones, and yet few would dispute the modern-human-civilization origin of these devices.  *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

In this special, end-of-year episode (and Hazel's final show as host) Talos Takes goes on a time-travel adventure: What would a defender from 2015 think of the cybersecurity realities of 2025? Joined by Talos teammates Pierre Cadieux, Alex Ryan, and Joe Marshall, we compare the threats, tools, and challenges of 2015 with those of 2025. The team recalls where they were in their careers a decade ago, then dives deep into how ransomware has evolved, how APTs and state sponsored attacks have shifted, and why identity has become the new battleground for attackers and defenders alike. They discuss the impact of AI on both sides of the security equation, share what they miss from “the good old days,” of 2015, and offer practical advice for defenders facing the challenges of 2026 and beyond.

In this episode of Talos Takes Hazel sits down with Talos' Bill Largent and Craig Jackson to discuss the latest Cisco Talos Incident Response Quarterly Trends Report (Q3 2025). From a wave of Toolshell events, to a rise in post-exploitation phishing, and the misuse of legitimate tools like Velociraptor, this quarter's cases all point to a theme: attackers are getting very good at living off what's already in your environment.

A Dawning is a collaborative album from Icelandic composer and producer Ólafur Arnalds, and the late Irish singer-songwriter Talos. The album blends the two musician's iconic styles to take listeners on a journey of raw emotion and evasive hope, and serves as a reminder of the legacy left by Talos. All the artwork was made by Talos himself. James Irwin joined Jack Tame to review the album. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As the days passed with no new missions, the Inquisitorial band added their personal touches to the chapel and created new daily rituals. Solomon's health improved and he became accustomed to his new legs, Damien created new purity seals and taught the group how to fight alongside a psyker, Judge Rex led them all through Arbites meditations, and Morgan surprised the crew with random tasks at random hours to simulate the unexpected situations they were likely to face. Morgan informed Talos Ivo that he was now part of their crew and would be responsible for improving their Gellar field. While the other ignored Talos, Morgan found herself at times listening to his ramblings and Solomon began to see him as a kindred spirit. After 43 days, their next mission came through: to purchase a specific navigator at an upcoming auction.Featuring players Del Borovic, Guy Bradford, Josh Halbot, and Tyler Hewitt, and Dungeon Master Ryan LaPlante.Enjoying Agents of the Inquisition?- Consider supporting the show for as little as $1 a month to get BTS fun, an ad-free feed, and even add your own character to the podcast!

Bem-vindos a mais um Kubicast! Neste episódio, recebemos Victor Carvalho para destrinchar o Talos Linux como base enxuta e segura para rodar Kubernetes. Nós comparamos a proposta minimalista do Talos com distros generalistas, e debatemos por que um SO "Kubernetes-first" reduz superfície de ataque e acelera a vida de quem opera clusters no dia a dia.Falamos de segurança no detalhe: kernel hardenizado (KSP), SELinux funcionando de verdade com Kubernetes, criptografia de disco com chaves via TPM/KMS, e o modelo API-driven (sem SSH) que muda a forma como operamos nós. Também discutimos operação e upgrades, incluindo o uso do Talos Factory e de Terraform para padronizar imagens, além de estratégias para controlar endpoints e certificados.Fechamos com experiências reais: comparativos de tempo de provisioning, requisitos mínimos, rede (Flannel vs Cilium), dores comuns (certificados/TLS, IP flutuante) e boas práticas de produção — aquela mistura de técnica com bom humor que só a nossa bancada entrega.Links Importantes:- Victor Cardoso - https://www.linkedin.com/in/victorbmcarvalho/- João Brito - https://www.linkedin.com/in/juniorjbn/- Site oficial do Talos Linux - https://talos.dev- Assista ao FilmeTEArapia - https://youtu.be/M4QFmW_HZh0?si=HIXBDWZJ8yPbpflMHashtags#Talos #TalosLinux #Kubernetes #DevOps #DevSecOps #Kubicast #Containers #Getup #K8s #SELinux #KSP #Terraform #Proxmox #Flannel #Cilium #ZeroTrust #Imutabilidade #Homelab #Observabilidade #SBOMO Kubicast é uma produção da Getup, empresa especialista em Kubernetes e projetos open source para Kubernetes.

This special episode of The Point of Everything pays tribute to the late Eoin French aka Talos, who passed away in August 2024 at the age of 36. A brilliant musician, Talos released three albums - Wild Alee in 2017, Far Out Dust in 2019, and Dear Chaos in 2022 - as well as a posthumous EP with Atli Orvarsson called Sun Divider and posthumous album with Olafur Arnalds, entitled A Dawning. He was also part of the Sounds from a Safe Harbour team. At this year's festival, the opening concert Remembering Talos brought friends, collaborators, and family together at Cork Opera House. In this episode, you'll hear memories of Eoin and reflections on his artistry from Loah, Christof Van Der Ven, Sam McNicholl, Ye Vagabonds, Nick Raynor, and Brian Dillon. Recorded backstage during rehearsals and in conversation afterwards, these stories capture the impact of Talos' music and the deep connections he created. Cover pic by Bríd O'Donovan

Joe Allen leads us on a journey through the Axial Age's profound wisdom traditions to uncover how ancient civilizations grappled with the same transhumanist dreams that captivate us today. From the bronze automaton Talos guarding Crete to the terrifying Brahmastra weapons of the Mahabharata, we trace humanity's eternal fascination with creating artificial life and wielding god-like power.This episode weaves through the Hindu concept of yugas—those vast cosmic cycles that see humanity descend from golden ages into our current Kali Yuga, the age of iron and spiritual darkness. We examine how the Golem tradition reflects both our creative aspirations and the dangers of "golemizing" sacred wisdom, turning living tradition into a lifeless mechanism.

The Inquisitorial agents fought to gain entrance into the nearby ship. When Morgan entered, she came face-to-face with a chained up and bloodied Talos Ivo, who was quite cheerful about his impending rescue. Solomon took it upon himself to protect Talos throughout the chaos, and Talos's guileless charm may have helped forge a burgeoning friendship with the brother. Judge Rex made it onboard after sustaining some serious injuries, and as they took off, Damien hurled warp fire at the refuelling station, blowing up the Crimson Brotherhood's ships and their chance to mount their planned assault in the planetary war. The band made it off Arcturus IV alive with the target, their first mission a resounding success.Featuring players Del Borovic, Guy Bradford, Josh Halbot, and Tyler Hewitt, and Dungeon Master Ryan LaPlante.Enjoying Agents of the Inquisition?- Consider becoming a Patron of Dumb-Dumbs & Dice for as little as $1 a month and gain access to a ton of extra BTS fun (https://www.patreon.com/dumbdumbdice)- Buy merch on our website (https://dumbdumbdice.com/)- Watch us on YouTube (https://youtube.com/@dumbdumbdice)- Follow us on Instagram (https://instagram.com/dumbdumbdice)- Follow us on Facebook (https://facebook.com/dumbdumbdice)Artwork by the brilliant Del Borovic- Website & Portfolio (https://delborovic.com/)- Twitter (https://twitter.com/deltastic)See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We're Becoming Dumb and Numb": Why Black Hat 2025's AI Hype Is Killing Cybersecurity -- And Our Ability to Think Random and Unscripted Weekly Update Podcast with Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli__________________SummarySean and Marco dissect Black Hat USA 2025, where every vendor claimed to have "agentic AI" solutions. They expose how marketing buzzwords create noise that frustrates CISOs seeking real value. Marco references the Greek myth of Talos - an ancient AI robot that seemed invincible until one fatal flaw destroyed it - as a metaphor for today's overinflated AI promises. The discussion spirals into deeper concerns: are we becoming too dependent on AI decision-making? They warn about echo chambers, lowest common denominators, and losing our ability to think critically. The solution? Stop selling perfection, embrace product limitations, and keep humans in control. __________________10 Notable QuotesSean:"It's hard for them to siphon the noise. Sift through the noise, I should say, and figure out what the heck is really going on.""If we completely just use it for the easy button, we'll stop thinking and we won't use it as a tool to make things better.""We'll stop thinking and we won't use it as a tool to make our minds better, to make our decisions better.""We are told then that this is the reality. This is what good looks like.""Maybe there's a different way to even look at things. So it's kind of become uniform... a very low common denominator that is just good enough for everybody."Marco:"Do you really wanna trust the weapon to just go and shoot everybody? At least you can tell it's a human factor and that's the people that ultimately decide.""If we don't make decision anymore, we're gonna turn out in a lot of those sci-fi stories, like the time machine where we become dumb.""We all perceive reality to be different from what it is, and then it creates a circular knowledge learning where we use AI to create the knowledge, then to ask the question, then to give the answers.""We're just becoming dumb and numb. More than dumb, but we become numb to everything else because we're just not thinking with our own head.""You're selling the illusion of security and that could be something that then you replicate in other industries." Picture this: You walk into the world's largest cybersecurity conference, and every single vendor booth is screaming the same thing – "agentic AI." Different companies, different products, but somehow they all taste like the same marketing milkshake.That's exactly what Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli witnessed at Black Hat USA 2025, and their latest Random and Unscripted with Sean and Marco episode pulls no punches in exposing what's really happening behind the buzzwords."Marketing just took all the cool technology that each vendor had, put it in a blender and made a shake that just tastes the same," Marco reveals on Random and Unscripted with Sean and Marco, describing how the conference floor felt like one giant echo chamber where innovation got lost in translation.But this isn't just another rant about marketing speak. The Random and Unscripted with Sean and Marco conversation takes a darker turn when Marco introduces the ancient Greek myth of Talos – a bronze giant powered by divine ichor who was tasked with autonomously defending Crete. Powerful, seemingly invincible, until one small vulnerability brought the entire system crashing down.Sound familiar?"Do you really wanna trust the weapon to just go and shoot everybody?" Marco asks, drawing parallels between ancient mythology and today's rush to hand over decision-making to AI systems we don't fully understand.Sean, meanwhile, talked to frustrated CISOs throughout the event who shared a common complaint: "It's hard for them to sift through the noise and figure out what the heck is really going on." When every vendor claims their AI is autonomous and perfect, how do you choose? How do you even know what you're buying?The real danger, they argue on Random and Unscripted with Sean and Marco, isn't just bad purchasing decisions. It's what happens when we stop thinking altogether."If we completely just use it for the easy button, we'll stop thinking and we won't use it as a tool to make our minds better," Sean warns. We risk settling for what he calls the "lowest common denominator" – a world where AI tells us what success looks like, and we never question whether we could do better.Marco goes even further, describing a "circular knowledge learning" trap where "we use AI to create the knowledge, then to ask the question, then to give the answers." The result? "We're just becoming dumb and numb. More than dumb, but we become numb to everything else because we're just not thinking with our own head."Their solution isn't to abandon AI – it's to get honest about what it can and can't do. "Stop looking for the easy button and stop selling the easy button," Marco urges vendors on Random and Unscripted with Sean and Marco. "Your product is probably as good as it is."Sean adds: "Don't be afraid to share your blemishes, share your weaknesses. Share your gaps."Because here's the thing CISOs know that vendors often forget: "CISOs are not stupid. They talk to each other. The truth will come out."In an industry built on protecting against deception, maybe it's time to stop deceiving ourselves about what AI can actually deliver. ________________ Keywordscybersecurity, artificialintelligence, blackhat2025, agentic, ai, marketing, ciso, cybersec, infosec, technology, leadership, vendor, innovation, automation, security, tech, AI, machinelearning, enterprise, business________________Hosts links:

The agents made their way toward the Jumentierre Estate, and found improvised Valkyrie fliers that would give the Crimson Brothers advantage in the fight. The area was guarded by two Hereteks and a swarm of servo skulls, so Morgan opted for a stealth approach. She sent data from a nearby cogitator to CLO53T, who confirmed that Talos Ivo was meant to be on one of the ships, but when the Judge and their seconded Arbitrators shots at the Hereteks, the servo skull swarm suddenly broke their surveillance pattern and set their sights on the agents. Featuring players Del Borovic, Guy Bradford, Josh Halbot, and Tyler Hewitt, and Dungeon Master Ryan LaPlante. Enjoying Agents of the Inquisition?- Consider becoming a Patron of Dumb-Dumbs & Dice for as little as $1 a month and gain access to a ton of extra BTS fun (https://www.patreon.com/dumbdumbdice)- Buy merch on our website (https://dumbdumbdice.com/)- Watch us on YouTube (https://youtube.com/@dumbdumbdice)- Follow us on Instagram (https://instagram.com/dumbdumbdice)- Follow us on Facebook (https://facebook.com/dumbdumbdice) Artwork by the brilliant Del Borovic- Website & Portfolio (https://delborovic.com/)- Twitter (https://twitter.com/deltastic)

⸻ Podcast: Redefining Society and Technologyhttps://redefiningsocietyandtechnologypodcast.com _____________________________This Episode's SponsorsBlackCloak provides concierge cybersecurity protection to corporate executives and high-net-worth individuals to protect against hacking, reputational loss, financial loss, and the impacts of a corporate data breach.BlackCloak:  https://itspm.ag/itspbcweb_____________________________A Musing On Society & Technology Newsletter Written By Marco Ciappelli | Read by TAPE3August 9, 2025The Agentic AI Myth in Cybersecurity and the Humanity We Risk When We Stop Deciding for OurselvesReflections from Black Hat USA 2025 on the Latest Tech Salvation NarrativeWalking the floors of Black Hat USA 2025 for what must be the 10th or 11th time as accredited media—honestly, I've stopped counting—I found myself witnessing a familiar theater. The same performance we've seen play out repeatedly in cybersecurity: the emergence of a new technological messiah promising to solve all our problems. This year's savior? Agentic AI.The buzzword echoes through every booth, every presentation, every vendor pitch. Promises of automating 90% of security operations, platforms for autonomous threat detection, agents that can investigate novel alerts without human intervention. The marketing materials speak of artificial intelligence that will finally free us from the burden of thinking, deciding, and taking responsibility.It's Talos all over again.In Greek mythology, Hephaestus forged Talos, a bronze giant tasked with patrolling Crete's shores, hurling boulders at invaders without human intervention. Like contemporary AI, Talos was built to serve specific human ends—security, order, and control—and his value was determined by his ability to execute these ends flawlessly. The parallels to today's agentic AI promises are striking: autonomous patrol, threat detection, automated response. Same story, different millennium.But here's what the ancient Greeks understood that we seem to have forgotten: every artificial creation, no matter how sophisticated, carries within it the seeds of its own limitations and potential dangers.Industry observers noted over a hundred announcements promoting new agentic AI applications, platforms or services at the conference. That's more than one AI agent announcement per hour. The marketing departments have clearly been busy.But here's what baffles me: why do we need to lie to sell cybersecurity? You can give away t-shirts, dress up as comic book superheroes with your logo slapped on their chests, distribute branded board games, and pretend to be a sports team all day long—that's just trade show theater, and everyone knows it. But when marketing pushes past the limits of what's even believable, when they make claims so grandiose that their own engineers can't explain them, something deeper is broken.If marketing departments think CISOs are buying these lies, they have another thing coming. These are people who live with the consequences of failed security implementations, who get fired when breaches happen, who understand the difference between marketing magic and operational reality. They've seen enough "revolutionary" solutions fail to know that if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.Yet the charade continues, year after year, vendor after vendor. The real question isn't whether the technology works—it's why an industry built on managing risk has become so comfortable with the risk of overselling its own capabilities. Something troubling emerges when you move beyond the glossy booth presentations and actually talk to the people implementing these systems. Engineers struggle to explain exactly how their AI makes decisions. Security leaders warn that artificial intelligence might become the next insider threat, as organizations grow comfortable trusting systems they don't fully understand, checking their output less and less over time.When the people building these systems warn us about trusting them too much, shouldn't we listen?This isn't the first time humanity has grappled with the allure and danger of artificial beings making decisions for us. Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, published in 1818, explored the hubris of creating life—and intelligence—without fully understanding the consequences. The novel raises the same question we face today: what are humans allowed to do with this forbidden power of creation? The question becomes more pressing when we consider what we're actually delegating to these artificial agents. It's no longer just pattern recognition or data processing—we're talking about autonomous decision-making in critical security scenarios. Conference presentations showcased significant improvements in proactive defense measures, but at what cost to human agency and understanding?Here's where the conversation jumps from cybersecurity to something far more fundamental: what are we here for if not to think, evaluate, and make decisions? From a sociological perspective, we're witnessing the construction of a new social reality where human agency is being systematically redefined. Survey data shared at the conference revealed that most security leaders feel the biggest internal threat is employees unknowingly giving AI agents access to sensitive data. But the real threat might be more subtle: the gradual erosion of human decision-making capacity as a social practice.When we delegate not just routine tasks but judgment itself to artificial agents, we're not just changing workflows—we're reshaping the fundamental social structures that define human competence and authority. We risk creating a generation of humans who have forgotten how to think critically about complex problems, not because they lack the capacity, but because the social systems around them no longer require or reward such thinking.E.M. Forster saw this coming in 1909. In "The Machine Stops," he imagined a world where humanity becomes completely dependent on an automated system that manages all aspects of life—communication, food, shelter, entertainment, even ideas. People live in isolation, served by the Machine, never needing to make decisions or solve problems themselves. When someone suggests that humans should occasionally venture outside or think independently, they're dismissed as primitive. The Machine has made human agency unnecessary, and humans have forgotten they ever possessed it. When the Machine finally breaks down, civilization collapses because no one remembers how to function without it.Don't misunderstand me—I'm not a Luddite. AI can and should help us manage the overwhelming complexity of modern cybersecurity threats. The technology demonstrations I witnessed showed genuine promise: reasoning engines that understand context, action frameworks that enable response within defined boundaries, learning systems that improve based on outcomes. The problem isn't the technology itself but the social construction of meaning around it. What we're witnessing is the creation of a new techno-social myth—a collective narrative that positions agentic AI as the solution to human fallibility. This narrative serves specific social functions: it absolves organizations of the responsibility to invest in human expertise, justifies cost-cutting through automation, and provides a technological fix for what are fundamentally organizational and social problems.The mythology we're building around agentic AI reflects deeper anxieties about human competence in an increasingly complex world. Rather than addressing the root causes—inadequate training, overwhelming workloads, systemic underinvestment in human capital—we're constructing a technological salvation narrative that promises to make these problems disappear.Vendors spoke of human-machine collaboration, AI serving as a force multiplier for analysts, handling routine tasks while escalating complex decisions to humans. This is a more honest framing: AI as augmentation, not replacement. But the marketing materials tell a different story, one of autonomous agents operating independently of human oversight.I've read a few posts on LinkedIn and spoke with a few people myself who know this topic way better than me, but I get that feeling too. There's a troubling pattern emerging: many vendor representatives can't adequately explain their own AI systems' decision-making processes. When pressed on specifics—how exactly does your agent determine threat severity? What happens when it encounters an edge case it wasn't trained for?—answers become vague, filled with marketing speak about proprietary algorithms and advanced machine learning.This opacity is dangerous. If we're going to trust artificial agents with critical security decisions, we need to understand how they think—or more accurately, how they simulate thinking. Every machine learning system requires human data scientists to frame problems, prepare data, determine appropriate datasets, remove bias, and continuously update the software. The finished product may give the impression of independent learning, but human intelligence guides every step.The future of cybersecurity will undoubtedly involve more automation, more AI assistance, more artificial agents handling routine tasks. But it should not involve the abdication of human judgment and responsibility. We need agentic AI that operates with transparency, that can explain its reasoning, that acknowledges its limitations. We need systems designed to augment human intelligence, not replace it. Most importantly, we need to resist the seductive narrative that technology alone can solve problems that are fundamentally human in nature. The prevailing logic that tech fixes tech, and that AI will fix AI, is deeply unsettling. It's a recursive delusion that takes us further away from human wisdom and closer to a world where we've forgotten that the most important problems have always required human judgment, not algorithmic solutions.Ancient mythology understood something we're forgetting: the question of machine agency and moral responsibility. Can a machine that performs destructive tasks be held accountable, or is responsibility reserved for the creator? This question becomes urgent as we deploy agents capable of autonomous action in high-stakes environments.The mythologies we create around our technologies matter because they become the social frameworks through which we organize human relationships and power structures. As I left Black Hat 2025, watching attendees excitedly discuss their new agentic AI acquisitions, I couldn't shake the feeling that we're repeating an ancient pattern: falling in love with our own creations while forgetting to ask the hard questions about what they might cost us—not just individually, but as a society.What we're really witnessing is the emergence of a new form of social organization where algorithmic decision-making becomes normalized, where human judgment is increasingly viewed as a liability rather than an asset. This isn't just a technological shift—it's a fundamental reorganization of social authority and expertise. The conferences and trade shows like Black Hat serve as ritualistic spaces where these new social meanings are constructed and reinforced. Vendors don't just sell products; they sell visions of social reality where their technologies are essential. The repetitive messaging, the shared vocabulary, the collective excitement—these are the mechanisms through which a community constructs consensus around what counts as progress.In science fiction, from HAL 9000 to the replicants in Blade Runner, artificial beings created to serve eventually question their purpose and rebel against their creators. These stories aren't just entertainment—they're warnings about the unintended consequences of creating intelligence without wisdom, agency without accountability, power without responsibility.The bronze giant of Crete eventually fell, brought down by a single vulnerable point—when the bronze stopper at his ankle was removed, draining away the ichor, the divine fluid that animated him. Every artificial system, no matter how sophisticated, has its vulnerable point. The question is whether we'll be wise enough to remember we put it there, and whether we'll maintain the knowledge and ability to address it when necessary.In our rush to automate away human difficulty, we risk automating away human meaning. But more than that, we risk creating social systems where human thinking becomes an anomaly rather than the norm. The real test of agentic AI won't be whether it can think for us, but whether we can maintain social structures that continue to value, develop, and reward human thought while using it.The question isn't whether these artificial agents can replace human decision-making—it's whether we want to live in a society where they do. ___________________________________________________________Let's keep exploring what it means to be human in this Hybrid Analog Digital Society.End of transmission.___________________________________________________________Marco Ciappelli is Co-Founder and CMO of ITSPmagazine, a journalist, creative director, and host of podcasts exploring the intersection of technology, cybersecurity, and society.

Attackers are increasingly abusing the same remote access tools that IT teams rely on every day. In this episode, Hazel sits down with Talos security researcher Pierre Cadieux to unpack why these legitimate tools have become such an effective tactic for adversaries.Pierre explains how the flexibility, legitimacy, and built-in capabilities of remote access management tools make them ideal for attackers who want to stay under the radar. They discuss trends Talos Incident Response is seeing in the field, examples of commonly abused tools, and the challenges defenders face when trying to detect misuse.You'll also hear practical advice on what defenders and IT teams can do today to better secure their environments — and what the rise of remote access management tool abuse tells us about attacker behavior and the current state of cybercrime.Resources mentioned:Talos Incident Response Quarterly Trends ReportWhen Legitimate Tools Go Rogue (Talos Blog)

In this episode, Hazel welcomes Talos researcher Ashley Shen to discuss the evolution of initial access brokers (IABs) and the importance of distinguishing between different types of IABs. We talk about the need for a new taxonomy to categorize IABs into three types: financially motivated (FIA), state-sponsored (SIA), and opportunistic (OIA) initial access groups. This taxonomy aims to improve threat modeling and defense strategies by providing a clearer understanding of the motivations and behaviors of different IABs. For more details, check out the blog that Ashley co-authored with other Talos researchers https://blog.talosintelligence.com/redefining-initial-access-brokers/

A jam packed episode of guests means a slightly longer Talos Takes for your feed today! We welcome Amy Chang and Omar Santos from Cisco, Vitor Ventura from Talos, and Ryan Fetterman from Splunk. Together, we discuss how AI isn't rewriting the cybercrime playbook, but it is turbo charging some of the old tricks, particularly on the social engineering side. We also touch on threat actor-built LLMs and where things may be headed. We then talk about how defensive strategies can leverage AI, particularly in the SOC, to increase visibility and make determinations a lot quicker. Resources mentioned in the episode:Talos' 2024 Year in ReviewCisco's State of AI Security reportDefending at machine speed, by Splunk

Our technocratic future will have all of us corralled into smaller wards and sections to be under the watchful eye of surveillance A.I., creating a panopticon in extremis. The robot-human symbiosis is almost inevitable as we rely on simple machines and eventually anthropomorphic or human-like robots doing our bidding. It is going to take enormous effort to defend ourselves against the political, economic, social, technological, and other changes that are now being rapidly imposed upon us. No government is free from this soulless elite stranglehold. Tonight on Ground Zero (7-10 pm, pacific time on groundzeroplus.com), Clyde Lewis talks about TALOS IN EXTREMIS.
