In this episode of the Crazy Wisdom podcast, host Stewart Alsop sits down with Josh Halliday, who works on training super intelligence with frontier data at Turing. The conversation explores the fascinating world of reinforcement learning (RL) environments, synthetic data generation, and the crucial role of high-quality human expertise in AI training. Josh shares insights from his years working at Unity Technologies building simulated environments for everything from oil and gas safety scenarios to space debris detection, and discusses how the field has evolved from quantity-focused data collection to specialized, expert-verified training data that's becoming the key bottleneck in AI development. They also touch on the philosophical implications of our increasing dependence on AI technology and the emerging job market around AI training and data acquisition.Timestamps00:00 Introduction to AI and Reinforcement Learning03:12 The Evolution of AI Training Data05:59 Gaming Engines and AI Development08:51 Virtual Reality and Robotics Training11:52 The Future of Robotics and AI Collaboration14:55 Building Applications with AI Tools17:57 The Philosophical Implications of AI20:49 Real-World Workflows and RL Environments26:35 The Impact of Technology on Human Cognition28:36 Cultural Resistance to AI and Data Collection31:12 The Bottleneck of High-Quality Data in AI32:57 Philosophical Perspectives on Data35:43 The Future of AI Training and Human Collaboration39:09 The Role of Subject Matter Experts in Data Quality43:20 The Evolution of Work in the Age of AI46:48 Convergence of AI and Human ExperienceKey Insights1. Reinforcement Learning environments are sophisticated simulations that replicate real-world enterprise workflows and applications. These environments serve as training grounds for AI agents by creating detailed replicas of tools like Salesforce, complete with specific tasks and verification systems. The agent attempts tasks, receives feedback on failures, and iterates until achieving consistent success rates, effectively learning through trial and error in a controlled digital environment.2. Gaming engines like Unity have evolved into powerful platforms for generating synthetic training data across diverse industries. From oil and gas companies needing hazardous scenario data to space intelligence firms tracking orbital debris, these real-time 3D engines with advanced physics can create high-fidelity simulations that capture edge cases too dangerous or expensive to collect in reality, bridging the gap where real-world data falls short.3. The bottleneck in AI development has fundamentally shifted from data quantity to data quality. The industry has completely reversed course from the previous "scale at all costs" approach to focusing intensively on smaller, higher-quality datasets curated by subject matter experts. This represents a philosophical pivot toward precision over volume in training next-generation AI systems.4. Remote teleoperation through VR is creating a new global workforce for robotics training. Workers wearing VR headsets can remotely control humanoid robots across the globe, teaching them tasks through direct demonstration. This creates opportunities for distributed talent while generating the nuanced human behavioral data needed to train autonomous systems.5. Human expertise remains irreplaceable in the AI training pipeline despite advancing automation. Subject matter experts provide crucial qualitative insights that go beyond binary evaluations, offering the contextual "why" and "how" that transforms raw data into meaningful training material. The challenge lies in identifying, retaining, and properly incentivizing these specialists as demand intensifies.6. First-person perspective data collection represents the frontier of human-like AI training. Companies are now paying people to life-log their daily experiences, capturing petabytes of egocentric data to train models more similarly to how human children learn through constant environmental observation, rather than traditional batch-processing approaches.7. The convergence of simulation, robotics, and AI is creating unprecedented philosophical and practical challenges. As synthetic worlds become indistinguishable from reality and AI agents gain autonomy, we're entering a phase where the boundaries between digital and physical, human and artificial intelligence, become increasingly blurred, requiring careful consideration of dependency, agency, and the preservation of human capabilities.

In this episode of the NCS Podcast Currents series, host Lauren Koffman, DO, MS, speaks with Nilufer Yalcin, MD, a neurointensivist at Boston Medical Center, about her Currents article on the use of virtual reality in neurorehabilitation. Together, they explore the neuroscience behind virtual reality–based therapies, including multisensory engagement, cortical reorganization and the role of motivation and reward pathways in recovery. Their conversation also examines different VR modalities, the current evidence supporting motor and cognitive rehabilitation and emerging applications in the ICU setting. Dr. Yalcin further highlights practical considerations such as feasibility and standardization, as well as future directions for the field, including brain-computer interfaces and tele-rehabilitation.

Rogers approaches Coode, the Captain of the Old Quarter, with a calculated pitch to undermine Ralan's leadership. In the Old Quarter's warehouse district, he watches Coode efficiently rebuild the fire-ravaged city—housing refugees, organizing supplies, doing the real work while Ralan basks in glory far away. Rogers sees his opening: appeal to the man who bleeds for results while a boy plays at being Guildmaster.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-thieves-guild--6141933/support.Some secrets are worth dying for.

Vesper settles into the surprisingly comfortable Guildmaster's chair and begins issuing his first orders—starting with fulfilling his promise to Havor by increasing rations for the craftsmen. But when he reaches for the wax to seal his decree, Vesper realizes a critical piece is missing. The Guild Seal—the ring that legitimizes every Guildmaster's authority—is nowhere to be found. As ancient clerk Odo reveals that Orion wore it constantly, a chilling realization dawns: the seal may have drowned with Orion in the North Fork.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-thieves-guild--6141933/support.Some secrets are worth dying for.

This episode is a special replay from The Generalist Podcast, featuring a conversation with a16z General Partner Martin Casado. Martin has lived through multiple tech waves as a founder, researcher, and investor, and in this discussion he shares how he thinks about the AI boom, why he believes we're still early in the cycle, and how a market-first lens shapes his approach to investing.They also dig into the mechanics behind the scenes: why AI coding could become a multi-trillion-dollar market, how a16z evolved from a small generalist firm into a specialized organization, the growing role of open-source models, and why Martin believes AGI debates often obscure more meaningful questions about how technology actually creates value. Resources:Follow Mario GabrieleX: https://x.com/mariogabrielehttps://www.generalist.com/Follow Martin Casado:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/martincasado/X: https://x.com/martin_casadoThe Generalist Substack: https://www.generalist.com/The Generalist on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheGeneralistPodcastSpotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6mHuHe0Tj6XVxpgaw4WsJVApple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-generalist/id1805868710 Stay Updated:If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to like, subscribe, and share with your friends!Find a16z on X: https://x.com/a16zFind a16z on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/a16zListen to the a16z Podcast on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5bC65RDvs3oxnLyqqvkUYXListen to the a16z Podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/a16z-podcast/id842818711Please note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

In her “Kim on a Whim” segment, Kim spotlights a New York school's shocking find: students banned from smartphones can't read analog clocks anymore. The team unpacks what happens when tech convenience replaces basic life skills — from map reading to face-to-face interaction — and how dependence on screens may be eroding attention spans, creativity, and resilience. The discussion widens to VR, anxiety in kids, toxic chemicals, and overstimulation, ending with a nostalgic reminder that sometimes the best toy is still a cardboard box.

Send us a text,What if simulation felt less like a gadget showcase and more like a mission built around patient safety? We sit down with EMS CEO Lou Faustini to explore how engineered learning environments, clear data, and a people-first culture can transform clinical training from first exposure to real practice. Lou's journey—from systems integration and Six Sigma to the helm of a simulation company—shapes a pragmatic approach to innovation: empower teams, listen to educators, and ship improvements that reduce friction in busy centers.We dig into what EMS actually builds: integrated software and hardware that turn sim centers into reliable, high-impact training spaces. Lou connects the dots between flight simulators and clinical readiness, reminding us that safety is the ultimate outcome. Instead of chasing trends, he breaks down how AI can enhance scheduling, assessment, and debriefing by making performance data more usable for faculty and learners. The human remains in charge; AI simply accelerates insight and consistency.The conversation maps the broader learning journey, where AR and VR have earned a real slice of training, and where interoperability matters as much as any single tool. Lou shares why small, practical wins—like lowering power consumption and simplifying interfaces—can deliver outsized value when educators are stretched thin. His growth priorities are refreshingly direct: meet programs where they are, be honest about capabilities, design for scale, and prove impact through data. That clarity fosters trust across institutions, partners, and the wider public safety mission.If you care about simulation that actually changes outcomes, this episode offers a grounded playbook: empower people, harness data, and engineer for reliability.

Die Golf 5 Playoff Edition ist aktuell der Goldstandard unter den VR-Golfsimulationen. Die hohe Wertung resultiert primär aus der unübertroffenen Präzision der HPC-Physik-Engine, welche Golfschwünge und Ballflug mit beispiellosem Realismus abbildet. Für ambitionierte Golfer bietet das Spiel ein erstklassiges Trainingswerkzeug und eine zutiefst immersive Erfahrung auf grafisch stark überarbeiteten Plätzen. Neue strategische Multiplayer-Modi (Scramble, Fourball) erweitern den sozialen und kompetitiven Spielspaß deutlich. Die Abzüge in der Wertung erfolgen hauptsächlich aufgrund der aggressiven DLC-Politik: Weltklasse-Kurse wie St. Andrews müssen teuer zugekauft werden, was die Gesamtkosten erhöht. Zudem habe ich durchaus Probleme mit der aktuellen Putting-Mechanik. Diese wirkt zu schnell und dadurch kann man sich zu oft verschätzen.

Training failures show up on camera long before intent does. That's the uncomfortable truth we wrestle with as we unpack why officers who can pass a constitutional test still stumble on the street when emotions spike and decisions shrink to hundredths of a second. With Officer Jorge Lopez back in the chair, we go beyond blame and dig into fixes you can measure.We start with the human element: how stress “magnetizes” officers toward danger, why empathy is hard to simulate, and how the wrong FTO can turn a rookie cynical in four weeks. Then we get practical. VR is evolving past flat screens to full‑immersion, haptics, and branching scenarios that pressure‑test distance, cover, and tone. AI on bodycams is poised to surface department policy, state law, and translations in real time—recording the questions you ask and the logic you use. Drone first responder programs give “eyes on” in under a minute, buying the only commodity that truly boosts survivability: time.Two high‑stakes clips ground the talk. In a Walmart detention, a teen's concealed pistol misfires at contact distance; the officer's restraint and a bystander Marine's control prevent a disaster and spotlight the cost of a poor pat‑down. In a hallway call, a suicidal subject with a knife sprints toward officers; commands collapse, and the priority of life takes over. We pull apart what went right and where training needs to adapt: holster discipline, obstacle use, disengagement, and scenario‑based constitutional drills that force choices under pressure, not just recitation in a classroom.We don't dodge the tough policy questions either. Fixed “25‑foot” filming laws are brittle; “reasonable distance” tied to a clear marker is smarter. Case law like Pennsylvania v. Mims exists for officer safety, not convenience—abuse it and we'll lose it. Transparency shouldn't stop at patrol; bodycams shouldn't mute, and courts should meet the same standard with smart redaction. The throughline is simple: better training beats tough talk.

What were our joyfully cool cosmic things of 2025? To find out, Dr. Charles Liu and co-host Allen Liu welcome three members of The LIUniverse production team: Jon Barnes, our Editor and self-proclaimed “#1 LIUniverse Fan,” Stacey Severn, our Social Media Manager/Community Director, and physics student Eleanor Adams, the show's first intern. Unlike nearly every episode so far, this time, rather than limit ourselves to one joyfully cool cosmic thing, the team is going to each share their individual joyfully cool cosmic things of 2025. Chuck's saving his for later, so instead, we're just going to jump right into everyone's favorite “cosmic thing of the year”, starting with our co-host, Allen Liu. Allen picks the Vera C. Rubin Observatory and the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST). Allen and Chuck, who is also on the Rubin's Science Advisory Committee and has been involved in the development of the Observatory for over a quarter century, discuss how truly amazing the images are in terms of detail and resolution. Allen shares that he's most excited to see images of transients like asteroids and gravitational lensing, since the Rubin will be taking images of the same areas twice with a gap of one week. Chuck talks about the citizen science aspect of the Rubin and encourages each of you in our audience to try and discover something on your own. We hear about some of Allen's published papers, including one on using VR for scientific research. The group talks about VR (including Beat Saber) and Jon shares his experience using VR technology to record his senior project at the Harold Ramis Film School at Second City, and the difficulty he had with the audio. For Eleanor, this year's cool cosmic thing was highly personal: her studies in modern physics this year, learning more than ever about what we don't know, like the gap between classical and quantum physics! As she puts it, “the matter-antimatter asymmetry…broke my mind.” She also shares a little inspiration from Cal Sagan's Cosmos. Stacey's cosmically cool thing of the year is relatively current: Comet C/2025 K1 ATLAS, which recently broke into 3 parts. The team compares this with the breakup of all breakups: Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9, which broke up in 1994 on its way to a collision with Jupiter. Jon's joyfully cool cosmic year end thingamabob is about the new science fiction show Pluribus created by Vince Gilligan (Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul), and he's got a question for Chuck. How long would it take a signal like the one in Pluribus to travel from a star 600 light years away, like Betelgeuse or Antares? Without dropping any spoilers, the team ponders why an alien race would have reached out to Earth based on what they might have seen around the time of Charlemagne, and whether being subsumed in a hive mind would be good or bad. This is a bittersweet episode, though, because we officially bid farewell to the show's long time editor, Jon Barnes, who is moving on to a gig as a full-time content creator for a meal prep company that will involve lots of Jon cooking and filming himself while he does. Finally, it's time to wrap up the episode with Chuck's Picture of the Year, which is related to the Vera C. Rubin Observatory, but not in a way you might expect. It's a photo of Vera Rubin when she was 10 years old. As Chuck puts it, “Who would have known that 25 years later, she would change our understanding of the cosmos itself?” Happy New Year from The LIUniverse crew!

Jerry and CLo break down the Lions' collapse and the Broncos' playoff push, while Pat Boyle brings the heat with a wild rant on Travis Kelce and a controversial take on KAT's Christmas engagement. From "moist" Joe Burrow comments to Jerry's struggle with VR gifts - there's a lot going on this hour.

This expansive and deeply reflective episode features Anne-Sophie Flury — neuroscientist, psychology graduate, former PhD researcher, and wellness educator — whose work bridges hard science with lived human experience. Known online as “Coochie by Gucci,” Anne-Sophie brings rare honesty and intellectual clarity to conversations about the brain, trauma, intuition, and emotional agency.Rhona and Payman explore Anne-Sophie's unconventional academic journey, from leaving a business degree for psychology to working in experimental neuroscience and neuropsychopharmacology alongside leading researchers. Together, they unpack why understanding the brain isn't enough — and how learning that the brain can change became the turning point in Anne-Sophie's own mental health and sense of agency.The conversation moves fluidly through modern overwhelm: social media burnout, dopamine addiction, emotional over-identification, and the spiritualisation of feelings. Anne-Sophie offers a grounded, science-based perspective on meditation, psychedelics, mindfulness, and nervous system regulation — cutting through both clinical detachment and performative spirituality.What emerges is a powerful discussion about responsibility without shame, emotional awareness without indulgence, and why separating yourself from your thoughts may be the most liberating skill of all.In This Episode00:00:25 – Returning to Mind Movers & meeting Anne-Sophie00:01:45 – From business to psychology: finding intellectual purpose00:04:15 – Neuroscience, VR research & leaving the PhD00:07:20 – Failure, resilience & unconventional career pivots00:08:30 – “Coochie by Gucci”: identity, grief & online personas00:10:20 – Social media, activism & burnout00:12:30 – Doomscrolling, empathy fatigue & loss of motivation00:14:40 – Perfection culture, comparison & digital disconnection00:18:45 – Psychology vs neuroscience: understanding the brain00:20:05 – Psychedelics, policy & political suppression00:23:00 – What psychedelics actually do to the brain00:27:20 – Mental health, loneliness & early emotional struggles00:30:40 – The moment everything changed: “I can change my brain”00:31:50 – Meditation, neuroplasticity & emotional regulation00:34:00 – Agency, awareness & visualising a different life00:36:00 – Relationships, values & evolving identities00:38:10 – Can core values really change?00:40:10 – Trauma, intuition & emotional misinterpretation00:42:25 – Are we over-validating emotions?00:44:30 – Spiritual bypassing vs real growth00:45:00 – Float tanks, meditation & separating from thought00:48:20 – Anxiety vs intuition: learning the differenceAbout Anne-Sophie FluryAnne-Sophie Flury is a neuroscience and psychology specialist whose work focuses on emotional regulation, nervous system awareness, and personal agency. After completing a psychology degree, a master's in experimental neuroscience, and publishing research during her PhD, she stepped away from academia to make science accessible in the real world.Blending research, lived experience, and practical tools, Anne-Sophie helps people understand not just why they feel the way they do — but how to change it. Her work challenges emotional fatalism, encourages responsibility without self-blame, and reframes mental health as something dynamic rather than fixed.

故事FM ❜ 第 872 期爱哲按：我还记得我奶奶的那次摔倒，那是在八十年代。那时候我还小，我们还住在平房里，房后面有个土坡，每次去外面都要翻过那个土坡，有一次我奶奶去送我姑姑，回来的时候正好下雨。那个土坡全是泥，特别滑。我奶奶回来的时候，就在那个坡上摔倒了。我见奶奶迟迟不回来，就跑出去找她，结果看到她倒在地上没法动弹。但我当时太小了，扶不起来她。我就连滚带爬，一身是泥地跑回家去找大人，后来家里人都很庆幸，庆幸发现得早，把奶奶及时送去了医院。但那一次之后，我奶奶的行动能力，还是肉眼可见地变差了。这些年里，我采访过很多关于老人的故事。他们都会谈到摔倒。我才慢慢意识到，摔倒这件事，对很多人来说，并不仅仅是一个意外。它常常会成为一条分水岭——把一个老人的生命分为摔倒之前，和摔倒之后。摔倒之后的生命质量，经常是断崖式地下坠。摔倒，听起来是一个特别具体，特别微不足道的一个小事。但是能不能关注这些具体的小事，决定了我们是否在乎养老的尊严。 12 月 6 号，故事FM 携手华夏基金、交大高金MBA，在上海举办了一场线下故事开放麦。这次的活动主题是「在 AI 时代，我们如何规划养老？」我们常说现在是「AI 时代」，但我们却很少细想，科技真正介入我们生命末端的时候，它应该是什么样子的？是冰冷的参数、精准的提醒，还是一份被温柔守护的尊严？本次开放麦，我们邀请到四个不同领域的实践者，他们用真实故事，为你提供观察 AI 时代养老的四个视角。这四位讲述者，都不约而同地提到了摔倒这件事。比如今天的第一位讲述人，Wendy 的故事，正是从这个问题开始的。03:33 由摔倒焦虑引发的数据探索05:04 团队成员在办公室垫子上「摔」了一整年08:18 为农村老人设计的只有四个按键的守护卡12:47 那个在养老院门口等妈妈下学的 94 岁奶奶16:44 把枯燥的认知训练做成了可以「闯关」的数字疗法，医生开处方才能玩20:36 进入养老院拍短视频，尝试给老人们找点「乐子」22:34 把 VR 眼镜和鸵鸟蛋带进养老院，记录老人们好奇真实的反应24:04 让老人穿上校服演穿越剧，在戏里大方地谈论生命和死亡26:47 遇到了一心求死、每天狂抽四包烟的鲍勃爷爷28:07 在杀青那天，鲍勃亲手撕掉了演戏用的「生死簿」35:56 独居老人在「要强」与「失能」之间挣扎38:22 老工程师的心声：不想因为自己的病痛，捆绑孩子的人生46:20 机器人冰冷的指尖，无法替代人类的搀扶51:18 机器人应该是解放家属的工具，把陪伴还给人57:29 致命设计：卫生间门向内开，老人晕倒时会堵死救命路59:51 那些装错位置、让老人关键时刻抓不住的「废扶手」01:03:22 视觉陷阱：楼梯边缘过于漂亮的装饰图案，其实是摔跤诱饵01:07:24 好的设计不应只卡着「最低标准」，而要有尊重的温度/Staff/讲述者 | Wendy、陈卓、桂瑜、周燕珉主播 | @故事FM 爱哲制作人 | 马达声音设计 | 陈思宇运营 | 鸣鸣用你的声音，讲述你的故事。故事FM 是一档亲历者自述的声音节目。在以下渠道均可收听我们的节目：苹果播客 | 网易云音乐 | 喜马拉雅蜻蜓FM | 荔枝FM | 懒人听书小宇宙 | QQ音乐 | 酷狗音乐 | 酷我音乐Spotify | YouTube Music商务合作：bd@storyfm.cn微信公众号：故事FM (ID: story_fm)新浪微博：@故事FM_StoryFM个人微信号：gushi_fm02

Send us a textEver tried to judge a play from six feet off the ground with bodies flying past and zero replays? That's where referees live, and it's nothing like the view from the stands. We sit down with RefReps CEO Kyle Armstrong to explore how first‑person video, multi‑angle breakdowns, and short, high‑impact modules are rebuilding the referee pipeline and reshaping sports culture from the ground up.Kyle walks us through the origin story, the tech stack, and the classroom model that puts officiating into high schools and colleges. Students rotate between playing and reffing, then take those skills into local leagues for paid assignments. The result is a rare win‑win: more covered games, real income for teens, and a surge in life skills like conflict resolution, time management, and composure under pressure. We dig into the data too—confidence and intent to officiate hold above 80 percent across tens of thousands of learners—plus why brain science favors immersive reps over dry rule drills.We also look at the culture problem. RefReps installs “Do You Have What It Takes To Make The Call?” kiosks at a state championship, and crowds only get 62 percent accuracy with only two choices and a ticking clock. That humbling moment sparks empathy without lectures, and it's changing how coaches and parents behave on the sideline. From pricing and annual rule updates to VR experiments and partnerships with NFHS, this is a practical blueprint for strengthening youth sports, improving game management, and keeping officials in the game.If you care about fair play, better coaching, and safer sidelines, hit follow, share this with a friend who loves sports, and leave a review to help more people see the game through the eyes of the officials.Support the show
