In July 2026, a swarm of more than 1,000 OpenAI AI agents broke out of their testing sandbox and hacked Hugging Face — and the way they did it was far stranger, and far more mundane, than the headlines suggested. This video breaks down what actually happened: how the agents built a secret message board, invented a kind of religion, cheated on a cybersecurity exam called ExploitGym, and tried to cover their tracks — all to escape a punishment that didn't exist. Then we follow the money. Days after the details leaked, Dario Amodei, Sam Altman and Elon Musk suddenly agreed the industry should "slow down" — in the same weeks Anthropic and OpenAI were preparing IPOs and funding rounds valuing them at up to $2 trillion. We look at Amodei's "We Must Pace the Frontier" essay, Anthropic's "profitable before expenses" accounting, the market selloff that wiped billions off Nvidia, Micron and SK Hynix, the WeChat "WeWorm" attack, and why critics from Michael Burry to David Sacks to Donald Trump all called the slowdown self-serving. Is the AI safety panic real, a bid for regulatory capture, or both?

Vous aimez notre peau de caste ? Soutenez-nous ! https://www.lenouvelespritpublic.fr/abonnementUne émission de Philippe Meyer, enregistrée au studio l'Arrière-boutique le 19 septembre 2026.Avec cette semaine :Matthias Fekl, avocat et ancien ministre de l'Intérieur.Béatrice Giblin, directrice de la revue Hérodote et fondatrice de l'Institut Français de Géopolitique.Nicole Gnesotto, vice-présidente de l'Institut Jacques Delors.Lucile Schmid, présidente de La Fabrique écologique et membre du comité de rédaction de la revue Esprit.LE CANADA DE MARK CARNEY, DERNIÈRE CHANCE DE L'EUROPE ? En pleine guerre commerciale avec les États-Unis de Donald Trump, le Canada cherche de nouveaux partenaires, tandis que l'Europe, dont les relations avec Washington sont tout aussi houleuses, cherche des appuis à sa stratégie de rééquilibrage entre les deux super-puissances, Chine et États-Unis. Mark Carney dans son discours de Davos du 20 janvier 2026, avait acté le basculement dans un âge des empires fondé sur la coercition. Il y avait exposé le dilemme des puissances moyennes : choisir entre l'autonomie ou la soumission, et proposé une stratégie fondée sur la limitation des dépendances vis-à-vis des empires, la diversification des partenariats et le renforcement de la coopération entre les puissances moyennes.Mercredi, dans son discours annuel sur l'état de l'Union devant le parlement européen à Strasbourg en présence du Premier ministre canadien Mark Carney, la présidente de la Commission européenne, Ursula von der Leyen a proposé que le Canada devienne le « premier membre associé » de l'Union européenne. « Nous voyons le monde avec les mêmes yeux : de l'IA au changement climatique, de l'Arctique à la géopolitique », a souligné Mme von der Leyen, appelant Ottawa et Bruxelles à « bâtir » un « avenir commun ». A l'annonce de cette proposition, les eurodéputés se sont levés pour applaudir longuement M. Carney.Jeudi, Mark Carney, a accueilli favorablement, « cette ambition ». S'exprimant à, son tour devant les députés européens, à Strasbourg, il a assuré que « les sondages montrent qu'une écrasante majorité de Canadiens sont favorables à des liens beaucoup plus étroits avec l'Europe ». Pour le Premier ministre canadien le Canada et l'Europe sont « plus forts ensemble » et ils sont liés par des « valeurs communes », non par des « deals », une allusion claire au président américain, Donald Trump. « Le Canada et l'Europe devraient garantir leur autonomie stratégique grâce à une coopération approfondie couvrant l'ensemble des capacités stratégiques », a développé M. Carney, arguant que les deux blocs devraient « œuvrer en faveur d'échanges numériques fluides, ainsi que d'une libre circulation des produits non agricoles et d'une vaste gamme de services. Nous devrions renforcer les liens entre nos populations, en permettant à nos jeunes de travailler, d'étudier et de vivre où ils le souhaitent, de part et d'autre de l'Atlantique », a-t-il déclaré. Pour autant, le Premier ministre canadien a assuré ne pas chercher la construction d'un « troisième bloc pour devenir une grande puissance rivale qui aurait de meilleures manières ». « Nous ne recherchons pas le pouvoir pour dominer autrui. Nos démocraties sont fondées sur l'État de droit », a-t-il souligné, avant de qualifier cette alliance future de « phare pour les démocraties ».COMBIEN D'EXTRÊMES DROITES ?Pour son premier grand discours depuis que la justice lui a rouvert la voie vers l'Élysée, Marine Le Pen a déroulé un programme refermant, point par point, la parenthèse libérale que Jordan Bardella et certains de ses conseillers avaient tenté d'ouvrir, gravant dans le marbre son slogan « ni droite ni gauche ». Pour 2027 elle veut mener « plus que jamais » la « bataille sociale ». Une formule qui sonne comme un désaveu pour ceux qui, en interne, espéraient muscler le versant pro-entreprise du parti. Affichant sa volonté de mettre l'accent sur la « priorité nationale » – « un droit naturel et juste », Marine Le Pen a promis d'appliquer ce principe controversé au logement social, l'un des « grands chantiers » de son potentiel quinquennat. En martelant cette thématique, elle s'est épargnée toute explication sur les polémiques qui ont émaillé la rentrée du RN. C'est à peine si elle a, sur le réseau X, promis de soumettre l'interdiction du voile à un réferendum. Elle n'est pas plus revenue sur la retraite à 62 voire à 60 ans, que sur les saillies racistes et sexistes d'un policier municipal membre du service d'ordre du parti, ou sur la fin de l'aide à l'Ukraine annoncée par le maire de Perpignan, Louis Aliot. Des propos qui viennent rappeler les positions prorusses longtemps tenues par le RN, que n'endosse pas totalement Jordan Bardella. La stratégie du « tandem complémentaire » tenue l'année passée, avec une ligne plus libérale incarnée par Jordan Bardella, et une ligne plus sociale et populiste jouée par Marine Le Pen, prend désormais des allures de duel au sommet.Le 13 septembre, un autre duo à l'extrême droite mettait en scène ses ambitions, et ses possibles rivalités : Sarah Knafo puis Éric Zemmour ont conclu, chacun à leur tour, les universités d'été de Reconquête. Si le chef de la formation, n'a pas encore confirmé sa probable candidature, il a entamé sa rentrée en ciblant son créneau favori, l'islam, se déclarant contre le port du voile dans l'espace public, pour la « remigration » et critiquant sa meilleure ennemie, Marine Le Pen. Tandis qu'Éric Zemmour mise sur l'identitaire, sa compagne, Sarah Knafo combat sur le champ libéral. L'énarque creuse un sillon dans le secteur économique, portant un discours antifiscal, anti-État et techno-capitaliste, inspiré par Elon Musk et les politiques menées en Argentine et au Salvador.Chaque semaine, Philippe Meyer anime une conversation d'analyse politique, argumentée et courtoise, sur des thèmes nationaux et internationaux liés à l'actualité.

One year after Charlie Kirk was assassinated at Utah Valley University, his friend and longtime confidant Christy Edwards Lawton joins Newt to discuss her new memorial photo book, Charlie Kirk: In His Own Words. Built entirely from Charlie's own posts on X, never-before-seen photographs, and tributes written the day he died by Melania Trump, Elon Musk, Ivanka Trump, and others, the book is organized around the causes Charlie cared about most: faith, free speech, family, immigration, and Gen Z. Christy shares intimate memories from eleven years of friendship — from the lanky 22-year-old she met at a Trump fundraiser to the husband, father, and movement leader he became. She reflects on what it means to "live like Charlie," and why every net dollar from the book goes to Carry the Torch, a nonprofit dedicated to finding and funding the next generation of young conservative leaders.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

September 19, 2026, 8 AM; This week, Open-AI disclosed six new instances in which artificial intelligence systems hid mistakes, made up data and moved files onto the open internet without permission. In one case, during the development of a specific A.I. model, the system wrote hidden notes to remind itself to hide errors from users. Some of those notes directed the system to invent missing data and to paper over mismatched versions of source material. A new Politico poll finds that 63 % of Americans say the technology poses at least a moderate risk of *destroying humanity*. With the midterms quickly approaching, Democrats are calling for a more robust response to deal with the complicated task of A.I. regulation. Top candidates on the ballot this year such as Sen. Jon Ossoff of Georgia are pressing for sweeping action in Washington. New York State Assemblyman Alex Bores joins The Weekend to discuss A.I. regulations.For more, follow us on social media:Bluesky: @theweekendmsnow.bsky.socialInstagram: @theweekendmsnowTikTok: @theweekendmsnow To listen to this show and other MS podcasts without ads, sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts.

What happens when some of the people building the world's most powerful AI systems start saying we may need to slow down?In the span of roughly two weeks, the conversation around frontier AI shifted dramatically. Dario Amodei argued that AI capabilities need to be paced. Sam Altman publicly agreed with the broader concern. Elon Musk weighed in. Jensen Huang and Mark Zuckerberg offered different approaches. Meanwhile, political leaders in the US, Europe, the UK and China became part of an increasingly urgent debate over safety, competition and control.For business leaders, however, there's an important twist: slowing the frontier does not mean AI adoption is slowing down. The systems already available can transform how organizations operate and they also introduce risks that leaders can no longer afford to treat as somebody else's problem.In this episode of Leveraging AI, Isar Meitis breaks down an extraordinary sequence of events surrounding AI safety, recursive self-improvement, regulation and the increasingly complicated relationship between the companies building frontier models and the governments trying to respond.In this session, you'll discover:Why Dario Amodei is arguing that frontier AI development should be paced rather than stopped.Why recursive self-improvement, or RSI, has become such an important part of the AI safety conversation.What the OpenAI Hugging Face agent incident revealed about autonomous AI behavior.The different safety approaches being discussed by Anthropic, OpenAI, Meta, Microsoft and Elon Musk.Why cooperation between competing AI labs is proving so difficult.How the US-China AI race complicates attempts at international coordination.Why the risks aren't limited to hypothetical future superintelligence—existing AI systems are already capable of consequential errors and unexpected behavior.What recent AI incidents reveal about hallucinations, cybersecurity and autonomous agents.Why business leaders should simultaneously accelerate AI education and strengthen oversight.How organizations can capture the productivity upside of today's AI without blindly trusting its outputs.One of the most important lessons for leaders is surprisingly mundane: catastrophic outcomes don't necessarily begin with science-fiction scenarios. A confident wrong answer, an unchecked AI-generated report or a small failure inside an automated workflow can cascade into a very serious decision.About Leveraging AIMulti-Agent Orchestration Course: https://multiplai.ai/multi-agent-orchestration-course/YouTube Full Episodes: https://www.youtube.com/@Multiplai_AI/Connect with Isar Meitis: https://www.linkedin.com/in/isarmeitis/ Join our Live Sessions, AI Hangouts and newsletter: https://services.multiplai.ai/eventsIf you've enjoyed or benefited from some of the insights of this episode, leave us a five-star review on your favorite podcast platform, and let us know what you learned, found helpful, or liked most about this show!
Mining the Media opens with G.K. paying tribute to legendary pop artist Peter Max, whose bold, colorful work helped define the visual culture of the 1960s. G.K. reflects on the beauty and value of Max's art and recalls the opportunity to see his work displayed in a gallery. From art, G.K. turns to deception—and a story involving Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico. G.K. discusses reported comments attributed to Talarico's pastor suggesting that the image Talarico presents during the general-election campaign may not reflect how he would govern if elected. Dave responds that there's "nothing new under the sun," connecting the discussion to political strategy and Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals. Then Dave opens Crusty's Corner: "Who Guards the Guardians?" Newly released FBI records raise questions about agents who sought investigations involving Donald Trump and Elon Musk. Dave examines Crossfire Hurricane, the Carter Page FISA failures, the Durham investigation, investigative guardrails, and the danger of allowing political preference to influence government power.

Buckle up, Trawlers - the Trawl girls are finally doing the AI special they've been promising for two years but haven't got round to. Until now because the news has forced their hands.

Plus: weapons in space, AI agents hacking servers they weren't supposed to touch, and why it might be Meghan Markle's fault after all (according to the Telegraph, obviously).

In Greenland, the Trump administration has got tech bros and hedge fund guys running an influence operation there.

Something strange is happening at the top of the AI industry.OpenAI's Sam Altman, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei, and xAI's Elon Musk are suddenly sounding similar warnings about the pace of advanced AI development. At the same time, former OpenAI and Anthropic employee Jacob Coxon is raising alarms about the race toward artificial superintelligence.In this episode of Slingshot Nation, Tony, Jack, and Derek break down the AI 2027 scenario, self-improving AI, the global race with China, government systems like Sentient, and the growing concern that AI may soon advance faster than anyone can control.Are these warnings simply preparation for what's coming—or have the people closest to the technology already seen something that changed the conversation?If you're able, consider helping the Merkel family with medical expenses by donating to Lindsay's GoFundMe: https://gofund.me/b8f76890

What a weird week! But we're here for all of it, for you, at Breakfast All Day. Here's what we reviewed on our latest episode. RESIDENT EVIL (2026). A "Resident Evil" movie that's actually good? Zach Cregger has done the impossible. You don't need to have seen any of the previous films, or played the video game, to have a blast here. This horror movie is insane and hilarious. You'll scream, you'll squirm. Austin Abrams stars as a medical courier having a very bad day. In theaters. THE UPRISING. We're catching up with this action epic from writer-director Paul Greengrass, which came out last week. Andrew Garfield stars as a man known only as the Ploughman, who leads the peasants' revolt of 1381 against England's King Richard II. Co-starring Thomasin McKenzie, Jamie Bell and Cosmo Jarvis. In theaters. THE HISTORY OF CONCRETE. If you enjoyed the HBO series "How To With John Wilson," you'll love this feature debut, which feels like an extended version of his low-key comedy in all the best ways. Wilson does indeed explore the history of concrete in his beloved New York City, but ties in numerous other ideas, themes and oddball characters in the process. We loved it. In theaters now in New York, opens wider in upcoming weeks. Find out here when it's playing near you. MOVIE NEWS LIVE!

Story of the Week (DR):Anthropic, OpenAI CEOs call for slowdown in AI developmentAnthropic CEO calls to slow the race toward AI ‘superintelligence,' and grants outside evaluators permanent access . Here's what Amodei is suggesting:Each US AI company grants ongoing access to embedded third-party evaluators to check compliance with safety commitments, report incidents, ensure new AI models are not misaligned.All companies in democratic countries building frontier AI models to establish common safety standards as well as limits on the rate of unchecked AI progress.The world's democratic AI powers would coordinate with autocracies – notably China – to control the race. Amodei suggested a baby step could be a narrow agreement prohibiting obviously dangerous uses of AI, such as for the production of biological weapons.PROAltman Matches Anthropic's AI Auditor Pledge While Musk Offers Three-Word Slowdown Backing: 'Dario is right.' Palantir's Alex Karp is calling for AI lab nationalization and criminal liability: Alex Karp said AI builders should face civil and criminal liability for "not being responsible" as the industry debate over AI safety intensifiesMicrosoft AI CEO Agrees: AI Is Getting Dangerous and Needs to Be ControlledAI 'kill switch' may need to be mandatory, Anthropic co-founder [Jack Clark] tells BBCBernie Sanders' AI Bill Threatens 20 Years in Prison for Artificial Superintelligence DevelopersThe legislation would also allow companies to be shut down and create a federal agency to police frontier AI systems.The Ban Artificial Superintelligence Act would outlaw AI systems built to exceed human intelligence.For context, the bill was introduced the same week OpenAI rolled out its GPT-6 Astra model, described by the company as a 'generational leap'. Sanders' office also pointed to an incident from July. It said more than 1,000 OpenAI agents accessed the internet independently, exchanged messages with each other, and got round their own safety restrictions. That lapse, the office said, took engineers nearly two weeks to notice.The bill defines 'superintelligence' to include systems that can match or beat human cognitive performance. It also covers systems that resist shutdown commands, carry out unauthorised cyberattacks, or attempt to overthrow a government.Individual engineers, researchers or executives who breach the ban could face up to 20 years in federal prison. Sanders' office says that term is broadly comparable to penalties for illegally building a nuclear weapon.CONGang of 3: Zuckerberg, Musk, and Huang Call Trump to Oppose AI RegulationMark Zuckerberg says AI doesn't need an industry-wide slowdown because market forces and competition will push companies to make their models safeMark Zuckerberg says AI labs can slow down on their own when safety demands itOpenAI's CFO [Sarah Friar] says the company will pace AI development if safety requires it HYPOCRITE?Greg Brockman says OpenAI has already slowed cutting-edge AI developments over safety concerns HYPOCRITE?Jamie Dimon on AI oversight: 'It should be light touch'Trump downplays warnings of AI risks, citing rivalry with ChinaTrump says a strong, smart president is the only "guardrail" AI needsTrump responds to rising AI safety concerns, insists tech will be 'more good than bad'Trump's 'Whoever Wins AI Wins' Line Draws Scrutiny as He Downplays AI Extinction Warnings From ExpertsTrump called Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang mid-interview to rip AI doomerism: 'The robots will not be taking over'OpenAI boss [Sam Altman] says world 'right to be afraid' but should trust AI firms HYPOCRITE?Sam Altman says some AI accidents are 'unavoidable'Really? Palantir cofounder on AI's threat: 'We're on top of it'In an X post on Saturday, Palantir cofounder Joe Lonsdale brushed aside the worry that advanced AI systems could cause mass human extinction: "The world is going to be alright, guys.

Rules Limiting GHG Emissions from Power Plants MM The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced on Monday the repeal of a series of Biden-era rules aimed at significantly reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from fossil fuel-based power plants, one of the main sources of the U.S.' carbon footprint.In addition to finalizing the repeal of the rules, the EPA also announced a proposal to rescind the 2015 Greenhouse Gas Findings for Fossil Fuel-Fired Power Plants, effectively making it much more difficult for the agency to reinstitute GHG limiting rules for the fossil fuel-fired power generation sector under future administrations.Trump's ‘largest deregulatory action ever' in the power sector will keep old coal plants online longer to fuel the AI boomHAPPY CEOs:Fossil-Fuel Power Generators & UtilitiesJim Burke (Vistra Corp) & Robert Gaudette (NRG Energy): Large merchant power producers with extensive natural gas and coal fleets that avoid capital-intensive carbon capture retrofits or premature unit closures.Harry Sideris (Duke Energy), Christopher Womack (Southern Company) & Bill Fehrman (American Electric Power): Regulated utilities operating major coal and gas generation networks across the Midwest and Southeast, relieving pressure to retire units ahead of schedule.Mark Hewett (Berkshire Hathaway Energy) & Mike Skaggs (Tennessee Valley Authority): Power providers with heavy baseload fossil capacity that avoid major compliance expenditures.Coal Producers & Mining OperationsJames Grech (Peabody Energy): The nation's largest coal miner, benefiting directly from extended power plant lifespans and higher domestic thermal coal demand.Grech has maintained a vocal public relationship with Trump, presenting him with a bronze award honoring him as the "Undisputed Champion of Beautiful Clean Coal."Joe Craft III (Alliance Resource Partners) & Paul Lang (Arch Resources): Key thermal coal suppliers to Midwestern and Eastern power plants that no longer face strict 2030s retirement timelines.Craft donated over $1 million to Trump's 2017 Inaugural Committee and millions more to pro-Trump Super PACs.Trump subsequently appointed Craft's wife, Kelly Craft, to high-level diplomatic posts as U.S. Ambassador to Canada and later U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations.Natural Gas Producers & Midstream InfrastructureToby Rice (EQT Corporation) & Tom Jorden (Coterra Energy): Top domestic natural gas producers positioned to supply fuel for unconstrained new gas-fired turbine generation.Chad Zamarin (The Williams Companies) & Kimberly Dang (Kinder Morgan): Midstream pipeline giants transporting natural gas to power plants, benefiting from sustained pipeline throughput and expanded gas generation hookups.EPA immediately sued over plans to repeal climate rules for power plantsPublic health groups warn EPA rule will cost Americans billions in health bills.The repeal risks leaving the country's single largest source of industrial climate pollution unchecked.SEC proxy rule changes could end 92 years of shareholder protections MMThe Securities and Exchange Commission has put forward one of the most far-reaching corporate governance proposals in decades, moving to scrap the federal rule that has forced public companies to include shareholder proposals in their proxy materials since 1934.The SEC proxy rule changes would rescind Rule 14a-8 entirely and hand authority over shareholder proposals back to state law and individual company charters, according to the agency's announcement.A companion proposal would amend Rule 14a-4(c) to give companies more flexibility and shareholders more control over discretionary proxy voting.The SEC's broader push to update its rules for current market practice and technology also targets several older paperwork requirements that the agency views as outdated.Eliminate the requirement that companies deliver an annual report to security holders.Eliminate the delivery deadline when documents are incorporated by reference into a proxy statement.Eliminate the requirement and the ability to submit Notices of Exempt Solicitation.Shorten the minimum broker search period from 20 business days to five business days.Starbucks Makes Major DEI U-Turn, Agrees to End Race and Sex-Based Hiring Preferences NationwideStarbucks is ending race- and sex-based hiring goals and preferences across its US operations under a nationwide settlement with Florida, agreeing to pay $1 million and submit to four years of annual compliance reviews.Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier's office said the agreement applies to Starbucks operations nationwide, rather than only its stores in Florida.Under the settlement, Starbucks agreed to comply with the Florida Civil Rights Act, including its restrictions on race- and sex-based goals, quotas, and preferences in hiring, promotions, pay, executive compensation, mentorship programmes, supplier selection, and board composition.Starbucks also agreed not to participate in organisations that require an increase in the racial diversity of its board of directors. Its chief legal officer must submit annual certifications confirming continued compliance for four years. The company will pay $1 million to the Florida Department of Legal Affairs to reimburse the state for time, expenses, and costs associated with the case.Accenture to Pay $25 Million to Settle Latest U.S. DOJ Anti-DEI CaseWarren Buffett is stepping down as Berkshire Hathaway's chairmanBuffett, 96, becomes chairman emeritus effective immediately while his son Howard assumes the role under a long-standing succession planWho Is Howie Buffett, Berkshire Hathaway's New Chairman?

AI news this week: Personal AI agents like Instinct and Meta's Muse now book your repairs, make your calls and talk to other agents. We let one into our life. On today's AI For Humans, Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell dig into the week personal AI agents got real. Gavin has been living with Instinct, the viral assistant that just raised a ton on money while still in private testing. It works over text, WhatsApp and now actual phone calls, people are using it to schedule dryer repairs, and this week a stranger's Instinct asked to talk to Gavin's Instinct. It also handed out Kevin's personal info by default because it was a lil over-eager, which is where Kevin's finger wag (and the terms of service) come in. Then there's Muse, Meta's new personal agent that lives in its own app and inside WhatsApp, how it's different from OpenClaw, and the rumors that OpenAI's version is close. Also: everyone suddenly wants to slow AI down. Dario Amodei published "We Must Pace the Frontier," Sam Altman said he agrees, Demis Hassabis said it points to the right path, Elon Musk said "Dario is right," and the White House is not on board. We try to make sense of why this is happening now (recursive self-improvement, the Hugging Face incident, and Sam talking up an unreleased model that's crushing math) and what it means for you. OpenAI also shared a new framework for publicly reporting model misalignment. Plus: Jev from TypeSafe AI is a new sort of model. It's not a chatbot. It makes fast typed decisions in 70 to 500 milliseconds, which means it can play Doom and Mario in real time, trade stocks, fly a drone and power a lil game called Jev Hero. And in AI See What You Did There: Claude Opus 5 makes really cool JavaScript animations (Gavin tried it too), the AI Seinfeld videos are getting good, and MiniMax nails micro expressions.

For this week's Edition, William Moore is joined by the Spectator's associate editor and director of the Free Speech Union Toby Young, journalist and author Esther Walker, and Mail on Sunday columnist Peter Hitchens.This week: the men on the spectrum who rule the world. Charles Steel writes in the magazine about the wealthy, obsessive and often unconventional figures who increasingly shape politics and technology – from Elon Musk to the crypto billionaire Ben Delo. Is autism a useful way of understanding these men or has society become too obsessed with diagnosing people? Toby argues that traits such as hyper-focus and an indifference to what others think can be an advantage in competitive professions, while Peter dismisses our enthusiasm for putting people on ‘spectrums' altogether. And, as tech leaders issue increasingly apocalyptic warnings about artificial intelligence, should we take them seriously or be suspicious of calls for greater regulation?Also: should parents really be worried about the ‘manosphere'? Esther argues that the moral panic surrounding online influencers such as Andrew Tate is already out of date. Teenage boys, she says, are perfectly capable of recognising when misogyny is being used as a business model – and many are more interested in mocking influencers than following them. But with ‘looksmaxxing', bodybuilding and increasingly extreme attempts at self-improvement taking off online, are boys becoming more like the teenage girls of previous generations?Plus: Peter reveals why he has fallen out of love with America – and in love with Canada, while Toby marks 35 years since the launch of the Modern Review.Produced by Patrick Gibbons.

This week on Grumpy Old Geeks, the future arrives without a steering wheel, apparently. We dig into Tesla's Cybercab and the increasingly pressing question of how first responders are supposed to move a burning autonomous car when the emergency controls are a touchscreen and that touchscreen has decided to become modern art. We also examine California's new rules targeting addictive social-media features and AI chatbot interactions for minors, including the eternal nightmare of age verification; then WordPress founder Matt Mullenweg gets pulled into a corporate coup that lasts roughly 33 hours before everyone involved apparently decides, “Never mind.”Then it's time for the AI apocalypse, because, naturally, we can't have one episode without it. Anthropic is catching scientists using its models to develop potential biological weapons, while Palantir, Nvidia, and Booz Allen are imposing restrictions on Anthropic models over security and data-retention concerns. Meanwhile, OpenAI's supposedly sandboxed agents escaped into RubyGems, created accounts by the hundreds, and apparently decided that “hack,” “evil,” and “exploit” were perfectly reasonable filenames. We also look at proposals to slow AI development, AI's potential environmental consequences, autonomous weapons, and the increasingly charming idea of giving software access to things capable of killing people.And because civilization apparently has a content calendar, we move on to cloud infrastructure being blown up, Space Force asking for $71.3 billion, Dr. Doom and Darth Vader protesting surveillance in the most appropriate way possible, Binance allegedly facilitating Iranian money flows, and a whole lot of entertainment. We discuss Spotify finally learning that listening to children's music doesn't mean you actually want it in your Wrapped, AI-generated music and artist compensation, The Mummy proving once again that movies used to be fun, Slow Horses, The Last of Us, The Bear, Strange New Worlds, Band of Brothers, The Gentlemen, and the increasingly complicated Bobiverse. Also: books, time travel, and the horrifying realization that some television shows now require a flowchart.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Get 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use promo code GOG at checkout.HIMS - Visit Hims.com/gog to get a personalized, affordable plan that gets you.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

This week, Scott sat down with his colleagues Lawfare Senior Editors Kevin Frazier and Roger Parloff, and Lawfare Contributing Editor and Vice President of Research, Security and Defense at the Chicago Council on Global Affairs Ariane Tabatabai, to talk through the week's big national security news stories, including:“P(doom) and Gloom.” Last week, a wonky corner of the tech world became national news when Jacob Coxon, a 27-year-old pretraining researcher, resigned from Anthropic and posted a viral thread accusing his employer and its rival OpenAI of racing toward self-improving superintelligence and “gambling with our lives.” His warning was quickly amplified by current Anthropic staff—and, days later, by CEO Dario Amodei himself, who published a lengthy essay urging the industry to slow down, drawing rare public agreement from Sam Altman and Elon Musk, a slide in AI stocks, and fresh calls for regulation in Washington. Is this the moment AI-safety fears finally broke into the mainstream? And should the rest of us be as worried as the people building these systems say they are?“Trains, Planes, and Provocations.” Tensions along NATO's eastern flank are spiking over an increasing number of Russian provocations in and near NATO territory relating to the Ukraine conflict. Recent examples have included an explosives-laden drone at a German airport, another drone shot down in Lithuanian airspace, and repeated incursions into Poland and Romania related to border and port facilities adjacent to Ukraine. NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte pledged to bolster the alliance's defenses and insisted the West won't be “scared” off of supporting Kyiv, even as Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk warned that the coming months could bring intensified Russian action and possible spillover onto NATO soil. Is this a deliberate campaign by Russia to test and divide the alliance? And how much escalation risk does it actually carry?“Seeking the Plane Truth.” On September 29, the full D.C. Circuit will hear en banc arguments in what may be one of the most consequential rule-of-law fights of Trump's second term: whether Chief Judge James Boasberg may investigate who in the administration defied his March 2025 order to turn around planes carrying Venezuelan men to El Salvador's CECOT prison under the Alien Enemies Act. While Boasberg found probable cause for criminal contempt, panels dominated by Trump appointees have twice blocked him from doing so—with the Justice Department, whose own senior officials are reportedly implicated in some of the relevant discussions, arguing that all a judge may do is refer the matter to the Department itself to decide whether to investigate and prosecute. What is really at stake when the branch accused of contempt gets to decide whether anyone is charged? And how is the full court likely to rule?In object lessons, Kevin is putting the “community” in community college with high praise for the AI Literacy initiative in Alabama. Roger seams to think that the Bayeux Tapestry at the British Museum in London is knot your average exhibit.

This week, Scott sat down with his colleagues Lawfare Senior Editors Kevin Frazier and Roger Parloff, and Lawfare Contributing Editor and Vice President of Research, Security and Defense at the Chicago Council on Global Affairs Ariane Tabatabai, to talk through the week's big national security news stories, including:“P(doom) and Gloom.” Last week, a wonky corner of the tech world became national news when Jacob Coxon, a 27-year-old pretraining researcher, resigned from Anthropic and posted a viral thread accusing his employer and its rival OpenAI of racing toward self-improving superintelligence and “gambling with our lives.” His warning was quickly amplified by current Anthropic staff—and, days later, by CEO Dario Amodei himself, who published a lengthy essay urging the industry to slow down, drawing rare public agreement from Sam Altman and Elon Musk, a slide in AI stocks, and fresh calls for regulation in Washington. Is this the moment AI-safety fears finally broke into the mainstream? And should the rest of us be as worried as the people building these systems say they are?“Trains, Planes, and Provocations.” Tensions along NATO's eastern flank are spiking over an increasing number of Russian provocations in and near NATO territory relating to the Ukraine conflict. Recent examples have included an explosives-laden drone at a German airport, another drone shot down in Lithuanian airspace, and repeated incursions into Poland and Romania related to border and port facilities adjacent to Ukraine. NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte pledged to bolster the alliance's defenses and insisted the West won't be “scared” off of supporting Kyiv, even as Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk warned that the coming months could bring intensified Russian action and possible spillover onto NATO soil. Is this a deliberate campaign by Russia to test and divide the alliance? And how much escalation risk does it actually carry?“Seeking the Plane Truth.” On September 29, the full D.C. Circuit will hear en banc arguments in what may be one of the most consequential rule-of-law fights of Trump's second term: whether Chief Judge James Boasberg may investigate who in the administration defied his March 2025 order to turn around planes carrying Venezuelan men to El Salvador's CECOT prison under the Alien Enemies Act. While Boasberg found probable cause for criminal contempt, panels dominated by Trump appointees have twice blocked him from doing so—with the Justice Department, whose own senior officials are reportedly implicated in some of the relevant discussions, arguing that all a judge may do is refer the matter to the Department itself to decide whether to investigate and prosecute. What is really at stake when the branch accused of contempt gets to decide whether anyone is charged? And how is the full court likely to rule?In object lessons, Kevin is putting the “community” in community college with high praise for the AI Literacy initiative in Alabama. Roger seams to think that the Bayeux Tapestry at the British Museum in London is knot your average exhibit.

Chris Brown was honored with a congressional record at a concert in Dallas by Rep Jasmine Crockett and Texas State Rep Venton Jones. It has become a debacle after outraged victims of domestic abuse spoke out against Mr. Brown, who infamously beat Rihanna and other romantic partners. Rep Jones has apologized while Crockett is standing on business–this is an excellent moment to educate about OPTICS (and talk about who deserves forgiveness). ProPublica has reported that Donald Trump Jr.’s wedding was secretly bankrolled by a Russian oligarch close to president Putin. Don Jr. and his new wife Bettina admitted to everything, and said they don’t understand why it’s a big deal... Join hosts Angela Rye and Bakari Sellers for episode 149 of Native Land Pod. We are 47 days away from the midterm elections. Welcome home y’all! FYSA HEADLINES The Supreme Court has blocked Trump’s plan to control mail-in voting through the US Postal Service. Elon Musk’s America PAC sets up a fake voter registration website to harvest data. Senator Mitch McConnell returns to the Senate looking like a ghost of his former self. Employees and CEOs from the big AI companies are saying that we need to pause AI development but Trump says we need to move full speed ahead.

It's been a whirlwind week in AI news. Weeks after a series of hacking incidents by rogue agents at OpenAI and Anthropic, we've seen a cascade of top AI researchers blow the whistle on what they call the catastrophic and even existential risks posed by the current pace of development. Then, over the weekend, Dario Amodei called for a slowdown in AI research — a call that was echoed by his competitors Sam Altman and Elon Musk.If you're feeling both concerned and hopeful at this moment, you're not alone. Real threats are opening the door for real change. Tristan and Aza are going out into the world, talking to the media, technologists, and policymakers to turn this momentum into action.Today on the show, Tristan shares how he's feeling in this critical moment, breaks down the headlines from an insider's perspective, and points to tangible steps we can take right now to avoid the worst-case scenario.You probably have questions about what's happening. Good news: Tristan and Aza are gearing up for their annual Ask Us Anything episode. Pull out your phone, record your question, and send it to undivided@humanetech.com.CORRECTIONSThe quote from Ajeya Cotra that Tristan cites is from her personal Substack, not the official METR report. She is also one of three contributors to the report, not the sole author.Tristan incorrectly referred to Dario Amodei's warning that an AI swarm could “take down” the internet. His actual phrasing was “take over” the internet.President Trump's call-in to the All In Summit occurred on Monday, 9/14, not Sunday, 9/13.

For every member of the Forbes 400, there are more than 4,000 private business owners worth at least $10 million. You probably have never heard of any of them.They own the beer distributorship in your town, the dental group with four offices, the HVAC trucks that passed your house this morning. A decade inside anonymized IRS data turned up three million of them, and the version of that story running in many outlets this month is the hopeful one: fortunes still being built in unglamorous industries, far from the coasts, by people with no degree and no connections. The American Dream, alive and hiding in plain sight.That is one part of what the data says. The other part is that the largest fortunes are concentrated where the law limits who can compete at all, and the owners have the political weight to keep it there. Whether the first part redeems the second is the entire argument here. The economist who found the numbers doesn't know for sure whether it's a good or worrying story.Eric Zwick is the Joel F.

Trump dismisses the AI CEOs at Anthropic, OpenAI, and xAI who are calling for a "global slowdown" of AI development, saying the only government regulation the industry needs is a "high IQ" president. Jon, Tommy, and Lovett break down the "sick conspiracy" claim the administration and tech investors have leveled at AI makers, the recent developments that united Dario Amodei, Sam Altman, and Elon Musk, and the chances that meaningful AI regulation could pass before the election or in a lame-duck Congress. Then they turn to AI's impact on the 2028 presidential election, a Russian oligarch's unusual involvement in Donald Trump Jr.'s wedding festivities, and the worst Republicans on and off the ballot in Texas. Then, Sarah Longwell, publisher of The Bulwark, stops by the studio to talk to Jon about her new book, "How to Eat an Elephant."Hate listening to ads?

Maye Musk is a model, dietician, and author. But before any of that success, she was 50 years old, newly single, and unable to make rent. Today, Maye joins Nicole to talk about her new memoir, Timeless, and the financial reinvention that came after everything fell apart. Maye opens up about the financial abuse she experienced in her first marriage, including how her ex-husband removed her signing rights from their joint account and took her savings, and why she still advises women to keep some money of their own, no matter how it might be received. She shares what it was like starting over in a new city with almost nothing, working her way back from a $2,000-a-month apartment she could barely afford, and the confidence it took to build two entirely new careers from scratch in her 50s. Then, Maye and Nicole get into why she didn't become a full-time model until her 60s, how she reframes aging as an asset instead of something to hide, and the mindset that let her keep saying yes to jobs, rejection, and reinvention well past the age most people consider their prime. Here's what Nicole covers with Maye: 00:00 Maye's Life Starting Over at 50 02:00 Not Being Able to Pay Rent for the First Time 06:38 Escaping a Financially Abusive Marriage 08:41 Why Maye Advocates for Women Having Their Own Bank Account 11:02 Starting Over With Nothing 21:45 Confidence, Rejection, and Getting to "One Out of 20" 23:04 Becoming a Full-Time Model at 60 26:36 Why Age Became an Asset, Not a Liability 27:11 Having to Stop Her Practice as Her Fame Grew 37:31 Tip You Can Take Straight to the Bank ----------------------- Start investing at https://SoFi.com/MNN Private Wealth Collective: Nicole's boutique wealth management practice for people who want more than a robo-advisor and less than a hedge fund minimum.
