This Episodes Questions: Brians Questions: Have been listening to your podcast for awhile now and the more I listen to more questions come to mind. Here is my current one for a walnut waterfall bench I'm working on. The dimensions are approx 58”L x 18”W x 16”D. How should I join a shelf to this bench where the grain flows continuously from the legs up through the bench top? The shelf will also be a glued up panel with the grain running the same direction as the bench top. If I attach the shelf to the inside faces of the legs using a mortise and tenon joint, do I need to account for wood movement? The legs, benchtop, and shelf are all 1.75” thick. I would assume that given they're all the same thickness and technically the wood grain is in the same direction as the legs, just perpendicular, it would expand and contract together, and I could just glue the tenon. That said I don't want to guess and hearing Guy talk about furniture exploding has me concerned. If wood movement is a concern then what's the correct way to account for this movement? Should it be treated like a breadboard end with dowels through the tenons, installed through the bottom of the legs (the shelf sits 2 inches off the ground)? Or would it be better, and stronger, to use floating tenons/Dominos for this joint instead and just not glue the outside dominos and cut them loose to account for the expansion and contraction while gluing the center domino(s)? Thanks, Chayse Bell Thanks for the great podcast, I discovered your channel about a month ago and now listen all the time traveling to and from work. I've been woodworking a little over a year now and currently working on a dining table made from ash and have picked up all sorts of pearls that have helped with the glue up, apron design, finishing, etc., so thank you for all that. This question is directed to Brian, as he has mentioned that his shop is in his basement. I currently work out of my two car garage that I share with my wife's car. We just built the house in 2024 and I'm kicking myself that I didn't insulate the garage. These cold Northern Indiana days are making working in the garage pretty uncomfortable. I know I could just insulate it, but HVAC isn't attached to the garage either so to make it truly comfortable would be a big job/cost. So, Brian, can you share a little more about the layout/design of your basement shop? E.g. was it a room that existed that you converted into the shop or you framed the room specifically for a shop? How do you take extra precautions to make sure your family isn't affected by dust, as this is my primary concern. Obviously, I know of dust collection and dust filters, but it still concerns me to think I'd be working in the basement. Do you have anything you wish you did differently? We have an unfinished basement that is very open, so the sky would be the limit for me in the future before we finish it. Thanks, Evan Guys Questions: Somewhat recently I made a gift for my wife using White oak. I had predetermined that for a finishing schedule I wanted to first apply Danish oil, then seal it with shellac, and minwax performance series varnish for a top coat. I ran into an issue when I began to finish the piece. Not knowing a thing about wood porosity, I liberally applied watco Danish oil, and as a result I had a big problem with seepage. Now, my research had cautioned me that I would need to keep checking on the piece periodically for the next several hours after application to wipe up any seepage that came up. Even so, you this went on for so long that it became an issue. Two full days after application I was still wiping up seepage. I would wipe the piece down before bed at night, and when I'd check it in the morning there would be spots on the surface that took a considerable amount of effort to buff out. I couldn't keep up with it, and after a few days the surface was covered in spots, which meant that I had to start over.  As I mentioned previously, I could not find any information online regarding how to deal with this problem. Just to see what would happen, I decided to try aiming a heat gun at the work piece after it had been drying for a couple of hours. This worked phenomenally, and I could not have been more thrilled. Of course the heat didn't dry out the wood any faster or anything, but what it did do was vastly accelerate the seepage process. The oil was rapidly drawn up to the surface of the wood, where I could wipe it away, and after treating both sides in this manner for a total of perhaps 10 minutes it seemed that all of the excess oil had been drawn out. I wiped the work piece down and had no more issues.  Of, like with any application involving a heat gun, I had to keep it moving, otherwise it would start to bake the spots of oil onto the surface. Anyways, I just thought this was a neat trick that might come in handy with oil finishes if seepage is ever a huge issue. I hope you guys found this interesting. Zach Owens Hello from Chico, California! I have recently started listening to y'all's podcast while researching inspiration for reconfiguring and refining my workspace. I thank Guy for highlighting the importance of drawers, I realized that I previously had none. I am a hobbyist woodworker looking for advice on air filtration for my two car garage shop. It is approximately 3960 cubic feet, 22' x 20' x 9'. While working, the garage door and access door (detached garage with no climate control) is usually open, weather permitting, and tend to have good airflow and supplement with a box fan when needed. I have a Harbor Freight 2hp Dust Collector for my machines, cabinet saw, planer, jointer, and router table and do feel that this my be slighty under powered for my system. I do notice a fair amount of fine dust suspended in the air after milling operations and breaking down sheet goods on the table saw and a noteable layer of dust across the entire shop. I think that adding an air filter could help reduce fine particulate and could potentially allow me to work with doors shut when it is too hot or too cold. Do you think that adding an air filter makes a significant addition to air quality or should I look further into optimizing dust collection? If you feel an air filter is a worthwhile addition, what would you reccomend for an approximately 4,000 cubic foot shop? I have been looking at the WEN 3410 unit due to claimed CFM and cost. I have also contemplated building one with a second hand blower from an old furnace. I am mechanically inclined and competent with electrical. I also feel that timers and variable speeds are not needed. I would also add that whatever I decide, the garage is detached from the main house and there is a studio above that is rented out to a seperate individual and would like noise and resonance to be kept to a minimum. The only real estate I have available for air filtration is the ceiling. Thank you for your time. Nick Halverson Huys Questions: Longtime listener. Truly enjoy the podcast. I am considering upgrading my table saw to a contractor or cabinet model. The choice are really overwhelming. I get a lot of advice on different brands, phase of motor and should I buy new or used. Any advice appreciated. Greg I recently bought a small bandsaw mill (Woodmizer LX30) and am becoming an amateur sawyer, exclusively to supply lumber for my own projects.  Once I have dried lumber to an acceptable moisture content, what is the best way to store a few thousand board feet?  My kiln guy says I should store packs of dead-stacked lumber horizontally, wrapped in 6-mil plastic.  That sounds like a pain.  I'd prefer to forgo the plastic and store the lumber horizontally, on edge, in a rack, in my unheated pole barn - which, I should note, sometimes gets a wet floor in heavy rains.  Then I'd bring pieces into my shop for a few days to acclimate before machining.  What do you recommend for long-term lumber storage?

China has been implementing targeted pro-consumption measures to spur immediate spending while advancing structural reforms to unlock sustainable consumption growth, as the country moves toward a more balanced growth model anchored by its vast domestic market, economists said.经济学家指出，中国正实施有针对性的促进消费措施以刺激即时支出，同时推进结构性改革以释放可持续消费增长潜力。随着中国朝着以广阔国内市场为支撑的更均衡增长模式迈进，这些举措将发挥关键作用。They said that a robust and expanding consumer base not only powers China's high-quality development, but also provides a stabilizing force for the global economy amid fluctuating external demand and geopolitical complexities.他们指出，庞大且不断扩大的消费群体不仅推动着中国的高质量发展，更在全球外部需求波动和地缘政治复杂化的背景下，为世界经济提供了稳定力量。At the annual Central Economic Work Conference held last week, Chinese policymakers placed "boosting domestic demand" first among eight key priorities on the economic agenda for next year.在上周召开的年度中央经济工作会议上，中国决策者将“扩大内需”列为明年经济议程八大重点任务之首。President Xi Jinping pointed out in an article published on Monday in Qiushi Journal, the flagship magazine of the Communist Party of China Central Committee, that expanding domestic demand is crucial not only for economic stability but also for economic security. It is not a temporary measure, but a strategic move, he said.习近平主席在周一发表于中共中央机关刊物《求是》杂志的文章中指出，扩大内需不仅关乎经济稳定，更关乎经济安全。他强调，这并非权宜之计，而是战略举措。Xi, who is also general secretary of the CPC Central Committee, called for accelerating efforts to address weaknesses in domestic demand, especially consumption, to make domestic demand the main driving force and stabilizing anchor for economic growth.习近平同时担任中共中央总书记，他呼吁加快解决国内需求薄弱环节，特别是消费领域的问题，使国内需求成为经济增长的主要驱动力和稳定锚。Robert Koopman, former chief economist of the World Trade Organization, said that over the next five to 10 years, "an important evolution in China's role is going to be to shift toward being a big center of demand".世界贸易组织前首席经济学家罗伯特·库普曼表示，未来五到十年间，“中国角色将发生重要演变，逐步转向成为重要的需求中心”。Analysts said that targeted measures to stimulate consumption remain necessary in the near term, as the latest data points to slowing growth of retail sales. In November, total retail sales of consumer goods, a gauge of consumption, registered a year-on-year increase of 1.3 percent, down 1.6 percentage points compared with October, according to the National Bureau of Statistics.分析师指出，鉴于最新数据显示零售额增速放缓，短期内仍需采取有针对性的措施刺激消费。国家统计局数据显示，作为消费风向标的11月社会消费品零售总额同比增长1.3%，较10月增速回落1.6个百分点。On Sunday, the Ministry of Commerce, along with the People's Bank of China, which is China's central bank, and the National Financial Regulatory Administration, jointly released a document pledging stronger financial support for consumer spending.周日，商务部联合中国人民银行（中国央行）和国家金融监督管理总局共同发布文件，承诺将加大对消费支出的金融支持力度。In the document, financial institutions were encouraged to refine their services for consumption on big-ticket goods, while for the services sector, the document emphasized innovative financial products targeting industries such as elderly care, catering, tourism and education.该文件鼓励金融机构完善针对大宗商品消费的服务，同时强调服务行业应推出创新金融产品，重点面向养老、餐饮、旅游和教育等领域。Dong Ximiao, chief researcher at Merchants Union Consumer Finance Co, said that front-loading of such support weeks before the new year is designed to secure early economic momentum and set a positive trajectory for 2026.招商银行消费金融公司首席研究员董希淼表示，在新年到来前数周提前推出此类支持措施，旨在确保经济早日获得动能，为2026年奠定积极发展轨迹。In particular, the move, launched ahead of the Spring Festival shopping season in mid-February, signaled a strategic effort to harness the year's peak consumption period, Dong added.董希淼补充道，这项举措特别选在二月中旬春节购物季前启动，标志着企业正采取战略性举措，力求把握年度消费高峰期。Analysts view the latest move as part of a calibrated "one-two punch" for consumption, pairing targeted financial support with extended trade-in programs through 2026.分析师认为，此番举措是刺激消费的精心策划的“组合拳”，将定向金融支持与延长至2026年的以旧换新计划相结合。Han Wenxiu, executive deputy director of the Office of the Central Commission for Financial and Economic Affairs, told a news conference on Saturday that China should "adapt to the evolving consumption structure by expanding the supply of high-quality goods and services, and optimize the implementation of the trade-in policies".中央财经委员会办公室副主任韩文秀周六在记者会上表示，中国应“通过扩大优质商品和服务供给适应消费结构变化，优化以旧换新政策实施”。According to data from the Ministry of Commerce, from January to November this year, trade-in programs pushed sales of related goods beyond 2.5 trillion yuan ($355 billion), benefiting more than 360 million people.据商务部数据显示，今年1至11月，以旧换新活动带动相关商品销售额突破2.5万亿元（约合3550亿美元），惠及超过3.6亿人。Wang Qing, chief macroeconomic analyst at Golden Credit Rating International, said that next year's trade-ins could incorporate a wider range of products, particularly those with artificial intelligence features. Wang suggested scaling up the annual funding pool to 500 billion yuan — an increase from this year's 300 billion yuan.金信评级首席宏观分析师王青表示，明年的以旧换新政策可能涵盖更广泛的产品，特别是具备人工智能功能的产品。王青建议将年度资金池规模扩大至5000亿元人民币——较今年的3000亿元有所增加。In late November, China unveiled a plan to improve the alignment of the supply and demand of consumer goods, highlighting the application of AI across all sectors and processes of the consumer goods industry.11月下旬，中国公布了一项优化消费品供需匹配的计划，强调人工智能技术将全面应用于消费品行业的各个领域和生产环节。"More important, the scope of support could broaden beyond durable goods to encompass a wide range of service sectors such as childhood education," Wang added.王青补充道：“更重要的是，支持范围可能从耐用品扩展到涵盖儿童教育等广泛的服务领域。”Structural reforms结构化改革Besides short-term measures, analysts emphasized that sustaining consumer strength will increasingly depend on deeper structural reforms, including raising household income, strengthening the social safety net and improving livelihoods.除短期措施外，分析师强调，维持消费韧性将日益依赖更深层次的结构性改革，包括提高居民收入、强化社会安全网以及改善民生。To this end, the tone-setting meeting last week explicitly advocated "increased incomes for urban and rural residents".为此，上周的定调会议明确倡导“提高城乡居民收入”。Wen Bin, chief economist at China Minsheng Bank, said that "the policy focus is gradually evolving from simple stimulus to bolstering both the capacity and willingness of households to spend".中国民生银行首席经济学家温彬表示：“政策重点正逐步从单纯的刺激转向增强家庭消费能力和意愿。”Wen pointed to potential measures such as adjusting personal income tax thresholds, maintaining steady growth in social welfare spending, and advancing policies that promote high-quality employment as key to enabling durable consumption growth.温彬指出了若干潜在措施，包括调整个人所得税起征点、保持社会福利支出稳定增长、推进促进高质量就业的政策，这些措施是实现消费持续增长的关键。China has also been proactively encouraging inbound consumption to enhance the resilience of its domestic market through the "Shopping in China" campaign, fueled by China's unilateral visa-free policies for various countries and a new initiative allowing eligible travelers to receive instant tax refunds.中国还通过“中国购物”活动积极鼓励入境消费，以增强国内市场的韧性。该活动得益于中国对多个国家实施的单方面免签政策，以及一项允许符合条件的旅客即时退税的新举措。

Urs Fischer ist zurück! Mit dem FSV MAINZ 05 feiert der frühere UNION-BERLIN-Chefcoach einen Einstand nach Maß. Gegen den FC BAYERN MÜNCHEN holt der Tabellenletzte einen Punkt. Aber war das auch ein verdienter Punktgewinn? Die Antwort auf diese Frage kann nur eine Truppe liefern: unsere BOHNDESLIGA-Crew! Erstmals seit vielen Wochen müssen wir keine Ausfälle beklagen. Das Quartett aus Nils, Etienne, Tobi und Niko versammelt sich gemeinsam im Studio. Den BAYERN macht der Punktverlust wenig aus, da auch BORUSSIA DORTMUND und RB LEIPZIG Federn ließen. Gerade beim BVB stellt sich die Frage: Wie gut ist das Team von Trainer Niko Kovac wirklich? Ist die Kritik gerechtfertigt? Weiter geht es mit dem Derby zwischen BAYER LEVERKUSEN und dem 1. FC KÖLN. Ein vermeintlich übertriebener Polizeieinsatz schlug hier hohe Wellen. Der SV WERDER BREMEN schlittert derweil in eine kleine Krise. Wie geht SVW-Edelfan Niko mit dieser Situation um? Last but not least sprechen wir auch noch über den großen Tabellenkeller-Duell zwischen dem FC St. PAULI und dem 1. FC HEIDENHEIM. War dies ein wichtiger Schritt für St. PAULI auf dem Weg zum Klassenerhalt? Wen können sie nach unten ziehen? Schließlich befindet sich derzeit die halbe Bundesliga im Abstiegskampf...

Die junge Generation in China steht unter enormem Druck: Hohe Jugendarbeitslosigkeit, schwierige Jobsuche und ein wirtschaftliches Umfeld, das längst nicht mehr die Chancen der Elterngeneration bietet. Gleichzeitig steigen die Lebenshaltungskosten – von Mieten über Wohneigentum bis zur Familiengründung – während der familiäre Anspruch, "erfolgreich sein" zu müssen, ungebrochen bleibt. ARD-Korrespondentin Marie Mallinckrodt erzählt uns, wie diese Situation das Denken und Fühlen der chinesischen Generation Z prägt. Welche Zukunftsbilder haben junge Menschen heute – und wie verändert sich ihr Blick auf Arbeit, Wohlstand und persönliche Lebensentwürfe? Welche Trends, Gegenbewegungen und stillen Revolutionen sind zu beobachten?

Was ist am Samstag im SAP Garden zu erwarten? Tobias Drews (Netflix) klärt nicht nur über Oktagon 80 auf. Wen trifft man auf einer Dienstreise nach Los Angeles so alles? Stefan Heinrich (Motorsport TV) verblüfft mit seinen Erzählungen selbst Edgar Mielke (Sky). Und: Hat Las Vegas das Zeug zum Formel-1-Klassiker? Stefan Ehlen (formel1.de) ist sich da nicht so sicher.

Wanda Wen, founder and creative force behind Soolip, is celebrated for her unremitting romance with the artisanal and the inherent beauty of things touched by hand. Established on Melrose Avenue in West Hollywood in 1995, and now nestled in Westlake Village, Soolip was built upon a profound love of paper - the tactile, expressive medium that continues to inspire Wen's world of refined artistry and soulful luxury.   A USC business graduate and former New York fashion executive with Perry Ellis and Stephen Sprouse, Wen blends business acumen with a discerning eye for art, style, and meaningful detail. Her work has been featured in The New York Times, Vogue, Town & Country, Better Homes & Gardens, and more, and she has appeared on The Today Show, HGTV, and as a judge on Freeform's Wrap Battle alongside Carson Kressley and Sheryl Underwood. Author of The Art of Gift Wrapping (Potter Craft/Random House), Wen is also known as America's “go-to gift wrap stylephile.” A dedicated yogi and teacher, Wen infuses mindfulness into all she creates. She co-launched YogaLand Game in 2018, an experiential board game for yoga enthusiasts that unites her passions for design, creativity, and uplifting others, and is set to launch YogaLand version 2, for the young generation ages 6 - 12, in Spring 2026. In today's episode, Nada talks with Wanda about her lifestyle brand and its evolution over the decades, all while managing to remain true to its original mission statement. Wanda takes us back to the beginning when her love of beauty and letter writing coalesced into a paper company that started in her garage, and details for us the flagship store's rapid growth into several niche markets. She explains the meaning behind the name “Soolip” and encourages us with the life mantras that keep her and her business grounded. And offers listeners a chance to engage in upcoming workshops and yoga lessons. For more information, visit Soolip's website.

A Singapore judge threw 26-year-old Johnson Wen behind bars for rushing Ariana Grande in a social media stunt while she was promoting her new “Wicked” movie. Her co-star Cynthia Erivo heroically rushed to her aid, as Grande looked terrified watching Wen approach her and put his arm around her. This is a woman who knows all too well what terror looks and feels like after her concert was bombed in 2017, killing 22 people. Does Wen’s punishment fit his crime, and is it enough to deter him from doing it again? This was not his first stunt and many believe this will just lead to more.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

An artificial intelligence-generated deepfake of Chinese actress Wen Zhengrong's face and voice was used by unscrupulous merchants to impersonate her in livestream sales, prompting increased calls for stronger and more tailored regulation and penalties from internet platforms and the law.近日，有不良商家利用人工智能生成的深度伪造内容，盗用中国女演员温峥嵘的人脸和声音进行直播带货。这一事件引发了公众强烈反响，互联网平台和法律层面均出现加强针对性监管与处罚的呼声。The discovery was made last week when Wen appeared to simultaneously host three different early morning livestream rooms on social media, wearing different outfits and promoting different products. The Wen "clones" looked and sounded strikingly similar to Wen, a feat that quickly ignited online discussion.上周，有网友发现温峥嵘疑似同时在社交媒体的三个不同直播间进行早间直播。画面中的“温峥嵘”身着不同服装、推广不同产品，其外貌和声音与本人高度相似，这一现象迅速引发网络热议。According to a China Media Group report on Wednesday, the forged images were produced either by clipping past videos and screen recordings or by taking earlier livestream footage of Wen and running it through AI-based deep synthesis, including voice alteration.据中央广播电视总台周三报道，这些伪造影像的制作方式主要有两种：一是剪辑过往视频和屏幕录制片段；二是提取温峥嵘早期直播素材，通过基于人工智能的深度合成技术（包括语音修改）进行处理。"These AI tactics confuse the public. My image and likeness have been infringed, and it is deeply hurtful," Wen said in the video report. She added that if viewers who trust her were misled into buyingcounterfeit goods, "I would feel truly sad."温峥嵘在视频报道中表示：“这些人工智能手段误导了公众，我的肖像权和人格权受到了侵犯，这让我深感痛心。”她还提到，若信任自己的观众因此被误导购买到假冒伪劣产品，“我会感到非常难过”。Li Ya, a partner at Zhongwen Law Firm in Beijing, told China Daily that such conduct was suspected of violating Wen's right of portrait and may also harm her right of reputation.北京中文律师事务所合伙人李亚向《中国日报》表示，此类行为涉嫌侵犯温峥嵘的肖像权，还可能损害其名誉权。Using someone's image for profit without authorization infringes on portrait rights, he said. "If sellers speak in her name and make false or exaggerated claims, that will negatively impact a public figure's reputation."李亚指出，未经授权使用他人肖像牟利构成肖像权侵权。“如果商家以她的名义进行虚假宣传或夸大宣传，将对公众人物的名誉造成负面影响。”Wen's team said that once the fake clips began circulating, they filed reports around the clock, flagging about 50 impersonation accounts in one day, according to CMG.据中央广播电视总台报道，温峥嵘团队表示，虚假片段传播后，他们立即展开24小时不间断投诉，单日就举报了约50个仿冒账号。Some livestreaming accounts were taken down, they said, but others quickly reappeared in new forms. Wen's staff noted that certain merchants can fabricate content by extracting brief footage and relying on AI functions built into video-editing apps, while the team faces a much higher burden to preserve evidence and defend their rights.温峥嵘团队称，部分直播账号已被下架，但另有一些账号很快以新形式重新出现。工作人员表示，部分商家只需提取简短素材，借助视频编辑软件内置的人工智能功能就能伪造内容，而团队维权时却面临着证据固定难、维权成本高的困境。Li said it is unrealistic to expect victims alone to safeguard their rights.李亚表示，仅靠受害者自身维权并不现实。"Rule-breaking merchants can open new accounts at will and face almost no cost for infringement," he added.李亚补充道：“违规商家可随意注册新账号，侵权成本几乎为零。”He noted that social platforms have a duty to deploy technology to detect whether AI tools are being used improperly in livestreams or short videos, and to penalize offending accounts as well as the operating companies and teams behind them, in order to prevent harm to third parties.他强调，社交平台有责任运用技术手段，检测直播或短视频中是否存在人工智能工具的不当使用行为。同时，平台需对违规账号及其背后的运营公司和团队进行处罚，以防范对第三方造成损害。In September, new regulations on labeling AI-generated synthetic content, released by the Cyberspace Administration of China and other agencies, took effect. The rules require clear "AI-generated" labels on synthetic faces and videos.今年9月，国家互联网信息办公室等部门发布的《生成式人工智能服务管理暂行办法》正式生效，其中明确要求对合成人脸、合成视频等内容标注“AI生成”字样。In practice, however, some merchants hide labels in obscure locations or mask them, allowing infringements to slip through reviews from the social platforms.但在实际执行中，部分商家将标注隐藏在隐蔽位置或进行遮挡，导致侵权行为逃过平台审核。"If a video lacks the necessary authorization and fails to show an AI-generation label, using someone else's face or voice in a livestream is atextbook case of infringement," Li said. "Victims can sue the merchant and even the platform, which bears responsibility for keeping online order."“若视频未经授权，且未标注AI生成标识，在直播中使用他人人脸或声音即属典型侵权行为。”李亚说，“受害者可起诉商家，甚至追究平台责任，因为平台负有维护网络秩序的义务。”On Thursday, Douyin's e-commerce safety and trust center said on its official social account that it had launched a special campaign in October targeting infringements. Those included cases where merchants or content creators, without permission, spliced videos, blended text, or used AI and digital effects to mimic celebrities for sales. The short-video platform's response to these actions included cutting livestreams, removing or banning involved products, freezing transaction proceeds, and ordering business suspensions, it said.周四，抖音电商安全与信任中心在其官方社交账号发布声明称，平台已于10月启动专项治理行动，重点打击各类侵权行为。其中包括商家或内容创作者未经授权，通过拼接视频、混合文本、运用人工智能及数字特效仿冒名人进行带货的行为。声明指出，平台针对此类行为采取的措施包括中断直播、下架或封禁相关商品、冻结交易款项、责令暂停经营等。Since the campaign began, the platform has acted against 11,000 creator accounts involved in impersonations and taken down more than 6,700 products, it said. In addition, more than 10,000 infringing videos faking Wen's likeness and voice for marketing were removed.声明显示，专项行动开展以来，平台已处置1.1万个涉仿冒行为的创作者账号，下架商品超6700件，同时清理了1万余条仿冒温峥嵘人脸及声音进行营销的侵权视频。Li Liang, a deputy president of Douyin Group, said on his account on Thursday that such AI-involved impersonation "seriously undermines the credibility of creators, merchants, and the platform in the eyes of consumers, and runs counter to our long-term interests".抖音集团副总裁李亮周四在其账号上表示，此类涉人工智能的仿冒行为“严重损害了创作者、商家和平台在消费者心中的公信力，与我们的长远利益相悖”。Li denied that the livestreams impersonating Wen took place on Douyin, adding that AI content infringement detection is an "industry-wide challenge, and malicious impersonators constantly engage in a technical cat-and-mouse with platforms."李亮否认涉温峥嵘的仿冒直播发生在抖音平台，并指出AI内容侵权检测是“全行业面临的挑战，恶意仿冒者不断与平台进行技术博弈”。"We will keep investing to meet the challenge and protect the lawful rights of creators, merchants, and consumers," he said.李亮称：“我们将持续加大投入应对这一挑战，切实保护创作者、商家和消费者的合法权益。”Li Wei, deputy dean of the School of New Media at Peking University, said AI-enabled deepfakes are "the most typical trap" in AI-assisted content production, involving infringement, copyright, ethics, and online abuse, with serious consequences.北京大学新媒体研究院副院长李玮表示，人工智能驱动的深度伪造技术是“人工智能辅助内容生产中最典型的陷阱”，涉及侵权、版权、伦理及网络滥用等多重问题，后果严重。She called for more systematic,multistakeholder cyberspace governance, especially stronger legal safeguards and platform oversight, and urged more tailored penalty tools to curb such practices.她呼吁构建更系统、多方参与的网络空间治理体系，尤其要强化法律保障和平台监管力度，并推动制定更具针对性的处罚措施，以遏制此类行为。counterfeit goods假冒伪劣产品textbook case of infringement典型侵权行为multistakeholder多方参与

LikeFolio's Landon Swan shares his bullish take on McDonald's (MCD) despite the fast-food giant's underperforming stock. Swan credits McDonald's success to its focus on value, citing the return of the value meal and successful promotions. He also points to the company's vast data reserves, which could give it an edge in implementing A.I.-driven efficiency improvements. Swan notes that while the broader fast-food industry is struggling, McDonald's is navigating the challenging landscape better than its peers, including Wendy's (WEN).======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

There's no avoiding it: Things feel pretty bleak. To witness venture-capital-fueled AI domination, democracy's steady drift toward authoritarianism, state-sanctioned genocide, and, of course, the collapse of one climate boundary after another, is to encounter a profound, at times overwhelming, sense of despair. But what if the path forward lies in accepting, rather than resisting, this despair? In his new book, Learning to Live in the Dark: Essays in a Time of Catastrophe, climate activist and journalist Wen Stephenson argues that the only way to confront the crises of our time is to meet this despair head-on—to see it for what it is, to feel it, and to accept what it means about where we are and where we must go. In this episode, Wen discusses how he's dealt with his own climate despair and how we can all "live into this era of climate and political and social catastrophe…while holding on to our humanity.” Learn more about your ad choices.
