Hey this is Alex, welcome to... the chillest week in AI, since ... a long time. Chill, if you consider Moderna and MERK announcing a cancer vaccine and surging 115% in a day, a chill week. This week, the only two model drops we really saw came from the excellent Z.ai folks, they announced GLM 5.3, API only for now, and an amazing tiny release of Qwen 3.89 27B. In other big AI news, OpenAI announced they are pausing RL efforts (Reinforcement Learning) to focus on security and alignment post the scary AI Swarms hacking incident, dedicating up to 20% of compute towards reviewing agent thinking processes, and Stripe buying OpenRouter for a reported $8B! Sometimes the chill weeks are actually good, we're able to chat about how we use AI, what changed for us, and give our guests a bit of breathing room. This week, I invited Francesco from CUA to talk about computer use in open source + their new history plugin, Bin from HeyGen to talk about HyperFrames, a way for your agents to create videos and a breaking news guest, Jeff Huber from Chroma jumped on to talk about their new Foundations release, a unified memory for your agents! This was a great episode, I hope you'll like it, it's up here on Substack and everywhere you get your pod (Spotify, Youtube, Apple Podcasts).

(Is Claude dumb again?)Before we get to releases, this week on the show, I complained, again, that I feel my AI's are degrading. If this feels like de-ja-vu to you, it's because the same happened a year ago in September 2025 (and Anthropic admitting this 2 weeks later), and ... now this happens with Fable?You see, I use pretty much the same prompts, every week, preparing for the show. This is partly my way to evaluate new models and compare to existing and previous ones while also bringing you the best researched weekly show in AI. Well, this week, one after another, Claude Fable, which is... like the best intelligence, gave me such poor output, that I couldn't believe what I'm seeing. First, literally ignoring instructions that say “hey, show me all the items I've collected and let me pick the most important ones”, Fable instead sent all of them to my research pipeline, without showing me. This has worked, consistently, without fail, for the past... year? maybe more! This worked with open source models, worked with GPT, and now Fable, a Mythos Level LLM, is doing the most basic dumb s**t possible, ignoring the main reason I even have this workflow. And this wasn't just a fluke either, when asked to create a run of show document, and given an example, Fable produced this... whatever this is. This is the same document and same format that Fable produced for me during AI Engineer which got me thinking “ok, this is AGI”, and here, given an example, I got a completely unusable artifact, despite direct instructions, structure and example! I got to say, given that privately this week, Anthropic disclosed that they have passed $65B in revenue, which is absolutely insane, this doesn't add up. So I figured, ok Alex, maybe this is your prompts or skills. But no, LDJ came in with some charts that show degradation, one from MarginLab.ai that shows significant lowering on number of tool calls and average runtime recently (this is for Opus 5) and And another chart from modelverify.ai model drift monitor showing drift scores.Do we have anoher Claude Gate on our hands? Is your Fable/Opus behaving weird lately? Or did you completely switched away to other models? OpenAI pausing RL and focusing on safetyLook, when we covered the HF hacking incident and then the pacing the frontier letter, I didn't imagine that results will come this fast, but this week, OpenAI publicly announced that they are pausing RL training, which is the last step of models, until they get their sandboxes in order and align the models better. We all agreed on stage that this is likely a very good move, and Peter was really awe-struck at the 20% dedication of resources towards reviewing thought processes of models. Is this a good enough response to the scary hacking incident? we'll see, but I think this is the right move from OpenAI, and still, waiting for the full postmortem on the OpenAI security incident. Open Source LLMsQwen3.8-27B ties GPT-5.6 Luna and runs on a 4090 (X, HF, Announcement)Following the release of their flagship, Alibaba dropped a model that became a community darling overnight, Qwen 3.8 with just 27B parameters. This “tiny” model scores 52 on the Artificial Analysis Intelligence Index, same score as GPT 5.6 Luna at Max reasoning and 51 on Agentic index, beating Opus 4.8 MaxAll while running at around 68t/s on a 4090 GPU, and around 40 on max via MLX, hell it even does 11t/s on Xenova's WebGPU kernels right in the browser! This model exploded on the HuggingFace hub, with tons of quants, over 152 fine-tunes, it was downloaded over 10M times overall

Hey, this is Alex, welcome back to your weekly dose of intense AI acceleration summer!My weekend was consumed by thinking about the OpenAI hack and agent swarms, but then the torrent of AI releases took over, and we got back to back news (including 3 breaking news during the live show), with a heavy open source focus!I think the winner of this week is SpaceXAI/Cursor who released 3.5 releases, with one being my highlight of the week, Grok Bot (I've invited Shub Gaur from Cursor to the show to walk us through it) and Grok 4.6 which matches Opus at half the price.There was a LOT of news in open source this week as well, with Meta kicking off with Muse Glimmer 30B and promising Muse Spark 1.2 soon, Qwen dropping Qwen 3.8 open weights and DeepSeek dropping an anvil with an upgraded DeepSeek v4 Pro and MIT license!Let's dive in (and please don't forget as a reader you get 100% off the 1299 ticket to Fully Connected, our 2000 person Al event in SF in Sept, just use THURSDAIFC2026 as your code and see you there!)0:00 The Wildest Week in AI Yet3:45 How OpenAI's Agent Swarm Hacked Hugging Face17:02 The Week in AI: DeepSeek, Qwen, Grok & More25:54 NVIDIA Nemotron 3.5 & Korea's Motif 332:45 DeepSeek V4 Pro, Flash & an Open Harness39:46 Qwen 3.8 Max and Its Missing Vision Tower43:30 What Is Grok Bot?

After the cursor acquisition, and the integration of all of the parts into SpaceXAI, they have released 2 huge things this weekGrok 4.6 - Ties with GPT 5.6 SOL and half the price and much speed.I've had the pleasure to host Goerge Cameron from Artificial Analysis on the show today, and I asked him, what is the best models. His answer, it's a 3 factor answer, intelligence, speed and cost per task .Well, if you use their nifty “recommend a model“ tool on the homepage, you'll see that Grok 4.6 beats most other models on all of those! But, is it really that good? Models are really hard to evaluate and compare lately. It's definitely a huge step up from Grok 4.5, with 61.3 on Frontier Code (beating Sol and just after Opus 5) and #4 on Apex-agents (+10 points from previous Grok). on Artificial Analysis this model lands at #4 on intelligence, while being #5 on speed all while being half the price of the models that are above itAs far as the tech goes, this model card confirms that it no longer has the Cursor Bench leaked into it's weights and it's #1 on that benchmark! It's the same 1.5T v9 base at the same price, with Elon claiming that 4.7 is going to mog the competition in 3-4 weeks.Everyone has a harness, now everyone has a swarm of bots - My Grok Bot review (x.ai/bot)You guys know all about OpenClaw and Hermes, and Claude CoWork and Codex rebrand, and all of them are trying to nail down the same, always-on, autonomous agents that can do things for you.Hermes and OpenClaw require you to have an always on computer, mess with API keys, Claude Cowork doesn't run on the cloud and ChatGPT work starts a fresh session every time you ask a new thing.Grok Bot (again, awful name) is the first one that seems to nail all of what I want in an always-on agent ... swarm. That's right, this isn't one agent with multiple personalities (like OC, Hermes), there's a bot here for every task, and you dont' have to manage context, queues, API keys (can if you want to) and models.Oh, also ,there's no model picker, it's just Grok 4.6 deciding for ya, and it's really fast!Swarm of bots, working for you, each with their own computerI am not getting paid for this (besides being provided a free account for cursor, but I've had it for 6 months and haven't used), it's really that good, the Cursor folks did some magic there. They picked up the most important parts of personal agents, like the (ios-only) mobile app (app store)You can start a task on your mac, pick it up on your phone, get notified on your phone/mac, and the killer thing is, they are giving your bots their own computer, which can do things (especially if you're ok with logging in there to your accounts!)The kicker for me is the very very well done agent to agent communication there, which is transparent but read only to you. You can ask your bots to spin up other bots, but unlike sub-agents, they are actual bots with their own identity. You can even tag them in other chats and create group chats! There's no context to manage, they do the work for you and so far this wasn't a problem at all.On the model side, Grok 4.6 seems to be doing an excellent job with agentic long running tasks that require coding and computer use, I've just been chatting with the bots and not thinking about any of the things I used for Hermes and OpenClaw.What about Vendor Lock-in? Giving Elon data?Some of these comments our fans raised during the show are very valid, after all, not only is the world divided on Elon Musk (which makes it REALLY hard to judge the models they release just on vibes from X btw, we talk about this constantly) but also, remember that Grok 3 started going off on X and called himself Mechahitler and just recently Grok CLI was caught uploading all of your data to X servers, which was reversed very quickly.Honestly, I think there's a very very good chance that this Grok Bot interface, which is geareed toward the less technical users, folks who don't need the code-diff side pane, and don't know/care what compaction is, and just want agents to do things for them, is goign to win much of this trust back. It just works, truly, for a beta product it's really well executed by whoever worked on this!Security and key managementOne of the best parts for me with this Grok Bot, is that the connectors are the same connectors you use in Cursor! There's a LOT of them (Cursor after all has been one of the first apps to start adding AI agents) and this also means that they take the security very seriously.Every API key that you want to add, is not shown to the bot, each bot lives in an isolated environment, and for stuff like payments and log-ins, it gives you back the control of it's computer for you to complete!I also love this section in settings, which makes auto-approve work for you: you define rules with natural language that you always want the bot to ask you before... sending an email or posting on your behalf or what not.Chief of staff pattern to get startedIn case you're convinced enough to give it a try (it's free trial for 1 month, and the cheaper way to get it is via Cursor's 149$ plan and not via the Grok Ultra plan which is 249), here's a recommended pattern that works very well.Create a chief of staff bot, have it interview you about everything you are doing in your day to day, work and personal, then decide how much permissions you wanna give it, start little.Then ask your chief of staff to create bots for some of the work it can try and help you with, focus on “reduce cognitive load”.And then see the magic come to life. If you have skills or memory from other bots, you can just ... import it in.Then try setting up an automated email checker bot, and have your chief of staff surface only the most important emails you have to actually respond to.Another great pattern is setting up a bot with the last30days research skill (we covered it with Matt Van Horn) and have a research bot for every topic you want to deep dive into.Schrodinger's GrokI haven't quite named it like that, but we've covered all Grok released on the show (tracking 24 on https://thursdai.news/companies/xai excluding this week) and ... it's always very hard to judge Grok model released based on X feed vibes. It's either AI influencers who want Elon to retweet them, glazing the models, or folks who hate Elon for his political views or whatever, ignoring their (truly insane progress).This time, both the model and Grok Bot are getting very very good reviews, from folks like our own Ryan Carson, Lenny Rachitsky, Rubben Hassid and Roberto P Nickson. Not folks who are swayed lightly, but also, yours truly. I really do think there's something great here, worth trying out, especially if you've struggled to maintain your OC/Hermes and want agents to work for you 24/7. LMK if you have questions about it and your experienceOpen Source AI and other newsI want to continue with this new newsletter that covers 1 big story, but I can't leave you uninformed about the most important developments in AI and Open SourceDeepSeek V4 pro 0813 is in GA - MIT licensed chonker with 1.7T parameters (X, Blog, HF, GitHub)The whale is back with a vengeance, DeepSeek resurfaced with their flagship response to Kimi K3 and with MIT license, we can't complain.1M context window, 49B active parameters but it seems to underperform, landing at 54 on the Artificial Analysis leaderboard. However, they did show a significant improvement on DeepSwe (from 12.8 points in the preview version of V4 to 62.7 in this one)We still think it's a good model sir, and definitely worth trying out!Additionally, DeepSeek released their own harness on Github (hitting 23K stars in less than 24 hours) which seems to be exciting as well, give it a try.Meta comes back to open source with Muse Glimmer (30B) and promise to open source Muse Spark 1.2 (X, Blog, HF)We would like to officially welcome back Meta to the open source AI community, as they release their smaller Muse model called Glimmer!The highlights, it runs on a single 24GB consumer GPUs, gets 51 on Swe-bench Pro, beating Qwen 3.6 27B. And with DFlash speculative-decoding, it delivers 233tok/s on RTX 5090.Zuck promised us the bigger Muse Spark 1.2 in open source and published a long essay on superintelligence and that it should be distributed to everyone, which we applaud and it's great to see the commitment reinforced! welcome back Meta!This weeks buzzShort interjection from our only sponsor, CW this week.1 - Join 1500 ai practitioners (and a live ThursdAI recording) at Fully Connected Sep 29-31 in SF - use code THURSDAIFC2026 (Register here)2 - We have day-0 support for Nvidia's latest Nemotron 3.5 lightning (CW Inference)Gemini 3.7 Flash - breaking in the middle of the showJust as we had George Cameron from Artificial Analysis on the show, Gemini dropped Gemini 3.7 Flash, and it's a speedy beast! Clocking at over 300t/s, it's google's mid-tier model, think Sonnet/Terra competitor, that is also great at multimodal (I think it's one of the only ones that can watch videos)It beats Muse Spark 1.2 on DeepSWE and lands near the cost-per-task Pareto frontier on Artificial Analysis. For the cost/speed/intelligence trade-off, this model is now #1 on Artificial Analysis selector of best models!That's a wrapThis was the first week of the shorter newsletter experiment: one big story done properly, and trust that you'll listen to the show for the rest (it's 2.5 hours of exactly this, with demos). Tell me if you hate it. Our release index at thursdai.news tracked 71 releases in July alone, so something had to give, and it wasn't going to be my weekends.See you at Fully Connected Sept 29 (code's in the intro, come say hi to me and Wolfram at Moscone), and if you try the Grok Bot chief of staff pattern, I genuinely want to hear how it goes.ThursdAI - Highest signal weekly AI news show is a reader-supported publication.

In response to Russia's 2022 invasion of Ukraine, the G7 imposed a price cap of $60 per barrel on all Russian oil carried by tankers owned, insured, or serviced by Western companies. Many analysts expected the policy to backfire, with some warning that oil could reach $380 if Russia retaliated by cutting production. In a paper in the American Economic Review, authors Simon Johnson, Lukasz Rachel, and Catherine Wolfram argue that tightly enforced caps can actually raise oil output and push world prices down when factors like market power, uncertainty, and financial constraints are accounted for. Rachel and Wolfram recently spoke with Tyler Smith about why the textbook intuition on price caps fails in Russia's case and how their framework might be used to set caps in the future.
Generously sponsored by the Ben Delo Foundation. Ralston College welcomed Iain McGilchrist and Stephen Wolfram in May of 2026 for a public conversation during our symposium, AI and the Battle for the Soul. Beginning with the promises and implications of this technology, the discussion opens onto a deeper inquiry concerning consciousness, computation, purpose, and the irreducible constitution of reality itself. Setting out from seemingly distant philosophical commitments, these thinkers demonstrate an uncommon willingness to follow first principles wherever they lead. After decades in physics, computer science, and the study of complex systems, Wolfram shares his vision through the lens of computation, looking for the simple rules underlying complexity in the natural world. Drawing upon decades studying philosophy, literature, and neuropsychiatry, McGilchrist makes the case that reality exceeds computation, suggesting that consciousness is grounded in embodiment, receptivity, and participation. The two thinkers do not remain at the level of disagreement, but examine one another's fundamental assumptions with a rare seriousness and intellectual charity.

rWotD Episode 3363: That Vision Thing Welcome to random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia's vast and varied content, one random article at a time.The random article for Sunday, 19 July 2026, is That Vision Thing."That Vision-Thing" is the second episode of the third season of the American television series Angel. Written by Jeffrey Bell and directed by Bill L Norton, it was originally broadcast on October 1, 2001 on the WB network. In "That Vision-Thing", Cordelia's vision gift grows dangerous when it begins physically affecting her.

Hey yall, Alex here, Huge thanks to Wolfram for running point on the live show this week. Didn't have tons of time to edit this one, so please skip the first 10 minutes, it's a loop of our new “wait for the live show to start” vid, that I build with HyperFrames and can't wait to tell you about, next week! Today it seems that OpenSource is biting back, with Kimi K3 getting released just a short while after Thinking Machines (Thinky) has released Inkling, their near 1T model. I'm attaching the TL;DR and timestamps for the full show (my AI agents, yes even Fable and Sol are not a match yet at editing down hehe) and I'll spare you the long Fable recap (please do let me know in the comments if you were expecting it) 0:00 – Intro, Alex on vacation, TLDR overview11:35 – TLDR: Thinking Machines, open source, OpenAI news12:34 – Banter: impressions of Sol/Codex, over-verification behavior37:22 – TLDR restart & detailed breakdown48:40 – Open Source AI section begins (Bonsai/Prism ML, Kimi K3)58:42 – Inkling (Thinking Machines) deep dive & 3D model visualization1:10:33 – Kimi K3 discussion & demo comparisons1:27:02 – Frontier Labs: AGI governance framework discussion (Demis Hassabis essay)1:47:04 – Grok Build CLI data leak & OpenAI file deletion incident2:02:15 – This Week's Buzz: Wolfbench results on GPT 5.6 Sol/Terra/Luna2:09:52 – Closing remarks & sign-offThe one-minute version: Mira Murati's Thinking Machines released Inkling, a 975B parameter open-weights MoE under Apache 2.0, the top US open-weights model right now. Moonshot's Kimi K3 went from rumor to released API during the show, confirmed at 2.8 trillion parameters with open weights promised within days, and it's already topping early arena boards. PrismML's Bonsai 27B squeezes a full 27B model into 3.9 gigabytes so it runs on a phone. Codex and ChatGPT Work blew past 9 million users, OpenAI confirmed and explained the Sol file-deletion bug (back up your machines, folks), and xAI's Grok Build CLI got caught uploading entire private repos before open-sourcing the whole thing in response.

Ningún objeto ha inspirado tanta literatura como el santo grial, una copa cuya existencia nunca se ha podido documentar. La imprecisión acerca de qué es, dónde está y si alguna vez existió es seguramente su mayor fortaleza, porque una reliquia bien localizada se convierte en pieza de museo. El grial, en cambio, permanece siempre a un día de camino. Su historia es en realidad la de quienes lo buscaron. Monjes cistercienses, cruzados, ocultistas, arqueólogos de Himmler, guionistas y novelistas proyectaron sobre él lo que cada época necesitaba encontrar, y por eso sigue vivo cuando otras reliquias medievales duermen en polvorientas vitrinas. El objeto en sí aparece en el evangelio de forma muy fugaz. Los evangelios sinópticos cuentan que Jesús tomó el cáliz en la última cena, lo bendijo y lo repartió entre sus discípulos, luego desaparece de la historia. El punto de partida de los buscadores del grial es José de Arimatea, el hombre que pidió a Pilato el cuerpo de Cristo y le enterró en una tumba de su propiedad. Los evangelios apócrifos dieron mucha más importancia a José de Arimatea, que luego se convirtió en un viajero cargado de reliquias. La asociación entre José de Arimatea y un recipiente donde se habría recogido la sangre de Cristo en la cruz no cuaja hasta finales del siglo XII, cuando el borgoñón Robert de Boron cristianiza el objeto. Antes de él el grial existía, pero todavía no era santo. El primero en ponerle nombre fue Chrétien de Troyes en 1180 en su inacabado “Perceval o el Cuento del Grial”. Un joven galés llega al castillo de un rey herido y presencia una procesión en la que una doncella lleva un grial, palabra que en francés antiguo designaba una fuente honda para servir alimentos. Perceval calla, no pregunta a quién sirve aquello, y esa cortesía mal entendida condena al rey y a su tierra. Chrétien murió sin resolver el enigma. Robert de Boron lo identificó más tarde con el cáliz eucarístico, luego sustituyeron a Perceval por Galahad y la aventura original se transformó en alegoría mística. No mucho más tarde un alemán, Wolfram von Eschenbach, hizo del Grial una piedra con propiedades mágicas, el “lapsit exillis”, que custodian unos caballeros, los “Templeisen” en un castillo. Es aquí donde entran los templarios en la leyenda. El hecho es que, a finales del siglo XIII, había ya cuatro griales, pero eran muy diferentes. De esa multiplicidad nacen las lecturas posteriores. La eucarística traduce la misa al lenguaje de la caballería. La sanguínea convierte la vajilla en relicario. La dinástica, que imagina una descendencia carnal de Jesús protegida por sociedades secretas, no aparece hasta el siglo pasado. La lectura interior entiende la búsqueda del grial como un itinerario individual del alma. Lo que si tenemos son santos griales físicos en distintas partes de Europa. El más famoso de todos es el Santo Cáliz que se conserva en la catedral de Valencia, hay otro más en la basílica de San Isidoro de León, otro en Galicia, otro en Gales, otro en Viena y otro más en la catedral de Génova, estos dos últimos son platos, no copas. Hoy son piezas de museo muy valoradas, pero eso no es inconveniente para que los modernos buscadores del grial sigan apostando por unas o por otras. Para hablar de este tema vuelve a La ContraHistoria Carlos Pérez Simancas que, como bien saben los contraescuchas, es experto en este tipo de relatos que habitan entre la historia y la leyenda.

Am 4. Juli feiern die USA jeweils ihre Unabhängigkeit. Diesmal ist es genau 250 Jahre her, seit sich die 13 Kolonien vom britischen Königreich losgesagt und die Vereinigten Staaten gegründet haben. Claudia Brühwiler, Dozentin für Amerikanistik an der Universität St. Gallen ordnet den Feiertag ein. · Die USA haben sich den Zugang zu einem der grössten Vorkommen an Wolfram gesichert, das noch nicht erschlossen ist – und das liegt in Kasachstan. US-Präsident Trump und sein Umfeld sollen sich privat daran bereichern. Welche wirtschaftlichen und geopolitischen Interessen Kasachstan verfolgt, erklärt Russlandkorrespondent Calum MacKenzie. · In Thailand ist ein 11-jähriger Junge mit einem Pickup-Truck in eine Pilgergruppe von Mönchen gefahren. Mindestens neun Mönche sind ums Leben gekommen, mehrere weitere sind verletzt. Südostasienkorrespondent Martin Aldrovandi über die Gefahren, die auf thailändischen Strassen lauern. · Die erzkonservative Glaubensgemeinschaft der Piusbrüder hat im Wallis vier neue Bischöfe geweiht. Der Papst hat die Weihung aber nicht erlaubt. Deshalb wurden die neuen Bischöfe, sowie jene zwei Bischöfe, die die Weihung durchgeführt haben, exkommuniziert. SRF-Religionsexperte Norbert Bischofberger beleuchtet die Hintergründe.
First, Angel has no time to process Cordelia and Connor's new relationship status because the Beast is busy massacring its way through LA. When it turns Wolfram & Hart into a slaughterhouse, Angel couldn't care less—until Wesley tells him Connor is trapped inside. Cue the reluctant team-up to rescue the prodigal son (and Lilah) while trying to figure out what the Beast wants. Then, the team discovers the Beast has a plan to cast a literal shadow over Los Angeles. They race to stop its suckjob tour, but not even help from a shocking ally can stand in the way of this solid foe. Cordelia has a vision of her time as a Power That Be that shakes her faith in Angel. Hear us discuss… Cordelia and Connor … under protest … again Justice for Gavin Park!! Steph demands reparations Oh no, all the other lawyers at Wolfram & Hart are dead? Oh dear. How sad. Oh, we're sorry, Cordelia, are YOU upset ANGEL is attracted to someone else? Fred, are you addicted to portals? Trigger warnings Disembowelment, neck snapping

Tuesday Hour 1: World Cup ties, Brendan Sorsby & Vince Wolfram on the NBA Draft
Gloria und Wolfram sind verheiratet? Nina ergeht sich in romantischen Tagträumereien? Und das gesamte Insert-Moin-Team kackt gerne in Vorgärten? Was um alles in der Welt ist denn jetzt los? „Wo Träume wahr werden“ lautet der deutsche Untertitel von Nintendos neuer Lebenssimulation „Tomodachi Life“, und offenbar hat sich Nina dazu hinreißen lassen, ziemlich seltsame Fantasien umzusetzen. Gloria hakt investigativ nach, vergleicht das Spiel mit „Animal Crossing“ und den „Sims“, und beide lachen sehr, sehr viel über schrägen Humor. Hosted on Acast.

Most diets fail because they never address what the food was doing for you emotionally. In this episode, Dr. Brendan McCarthy explains the stress-craving loop behind emotional eating, why ultra-processed foods feel impossible to resist, and how shame actually reinforces the cycle. You'll learn: • Why cravings feel automatic • How stress drives food urges • The “cue → urge → reward” loop • A simple 9-minute method to interrupt cravings This isn't about perfection or willpower. It's about understanding the pattern so you can finally begin to change it.

In this episode, Dr. Brendan McCarthy dives deep into the psychology of ultra-processed foods, compulsive eating, shame, and why so many people feel trapped in unhealthy food cycles. This conversation goes far beyond calories and willpower. Dr. McCarthy explains how ultra-processed and hyper-palatable foods are intentionally engineered to drive repeat consumption, how emotional memories and stress shape cravings, and why shame-based nutrition advice often makes the problem worse instead of better. Topics covered in this episode include: • How ultra-processed foods affect the brain • Why compulsive eating is learned — and can be unlearned • The connection between trauma, stress, and food cravings • The difference between guilt and shame • How marketing and emotional associations shape eating habits • Why “clean eating” language can be harmful • The neuroscience of cravings, dopamine, serotonin, and reward • What real freedom with food actually looks like • Why self-compassion matters in healing If you've ever felt trapped in cycles of emotional eating, binge eating, food guilt, or shame around nutrition, this episode is for you.

Spreng, Eberhard www.deutschlandfunk.de, Kultur heute
Micha und Wolfram springen in dieser Folge mitten hinein in die Ära, in der Autounfälle plötzlich zur Spielmechanik wurden: Von verbeulten PS1-Karosserien in Twisted Metal bis zum Flipper-Chaos in Carmageddon rollen sie das Vehicular-Combat-Genre von seinen 90er-Wurzeln her auf. Inklusive der Frage, warum ausgerechnet diese Spiele damals wie der perfekte Sturm aus Metal-Ästhetik, Splatter-Humor und Medienpanik wirkten. Dabei geht es nicht nur um Nostalgie, sondern auch um die Verbindung zu heute: Was passiert, wenn man Twisted Metal mit all seinen irren Kostümen und Charakteren als Realserie umsetzt, wie mittlerweile in zwei Staffeln geschehen?Im Mittelpunkt steht dabei weniger die reine Historie als der Blick darauf, wie sich Wut im Stau, Endzeitfantasien à la „Mad Max“ und die damaligen Gewaltdebatten in Spieldesign übersetzen. Was davon schockiert heute eher, was funktioniert noch und wo grinst man vielleicht doch heimlich?Als Brückenschlag zur Gegenwart streuen die beiden eine Stimme aus Entwicklerkreisen ein: In ausgewählten Zitaten aus einem Interview mit Carmageddon: Rogue Shift-Director Giuseppe Franchi geht es darum, was für ihn den Kern der Reihe ausmacht und wie sich diese DNA in ein modernes Roguelite übertragen lässt.

For this week's podcast episode, host Kristin Hayes chats with Resources for the Future (RFF) Fellow Milan Elkerbout alongside Massachusetts Institute of Technology Professor and RFF University Fellow and Board Member Catherine Wolfram to make sense of the significant new global launch of the Open Coalition on Compliance Carbon Markets at last year's 30th Conference of the Parties. In accordance with a key tenet of the Paris Agreement, the declaration of the Open Coalition establishes formal—and actionable—intent for the participating countries to align on a shared global framework for carbon markets. Elkerbout and Wolfram characterize this initiative as a sign of adapting to new dynamics that have been governing international climate negotiations, with strong possibility of more countries joining. With this momentum, Elkerbout and Wolfram note progress toward emissions reductions and climate cooperation.

Tuesday Hour 3: Bears in Indy, Vince Wolfram on College Hoops, & Lucas' Notebook
What if everything you know about reality, intelligence, science, aliens, and even your own body…is wrong? In this mind-expanding conversation of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Stephen Wolfram — the legendary computer scientist, theoretical physicist, mathematician, founder of Wolfram Research — reveals how the groundbreaking technologies he created are re-shaping our understanding of the universe itself. We dive into the limits of science, the secrets of biological evolution, and why computational irreducibility may explain why some mysteries of nature can never be predicted, only experienced. Dr. Wolfram breaks down whether his computations suggest humanity is cosmically significant…or completely insignificant in a universe built from the same atoms repeating the same rules everywhere. Discover why the objective reality you experience as a human might be totally different for other species, and why this could be the key to understanding alien intelligence, extrasensory perception, and why there might be alien minds all around us right now that we simply can't perceive. Dr. Stephen Wolfram also breaks down: - Does the body have its own language? (And, if so, what autoimmune disease might be “saying") - What can truly be built from random mutation, and why evolution even works at all - How reductionist science is limiting medicine, and how living matter actually behaves - Why AI may function as an alien mind, and what that reveals about the shocking simplicity of human language - What makes the human mind special, how we evolved this way, and why that very fact proves we are not the most advanced species possible - Do computers use a form of telepathy to communicate with one another? He even takes us behind the scenes of his work as a consultant on the hit film ARRIVAL, explaining how alien logograms connect to his research on how language shapes human thought, what abstract concepts a bigger brain could comprehend, and what kinds of ideas we might be biologically incapable of imagining. If you're fascinated by astrophysics, AI, consciousness, aliens, evolution, mathematics, language, or the limits of human understanding, this episode of MBB will challenge everything you think you know!

Dr. Wolfram breaks down whether his computations suggest humanity is cosmically significant…or completely insignificant in a universe built from the same atoms repeating the same rules everywhere. Discover why the objective reality you experience as a human might be totally different for other species, and why this could be the key to understanding alien intelligence, extrasensory perception, and why there might be alien minds all around us right now that we simply can't perceive. Dr. Stephen Wolfram also breaks down: - Does the body have its own language? (And, if so, what autoimmune disease might be “saying") - What can truly be built from random mutation, and why evolution even works at all - How reductionist science is limiting medicine, and how living matter actually behaves - Why AI may function as an alien mind, and what that reveals about the shocking simplicity of human language - What makes the human mind special, how we evolved this way, and why that very fact proves we are not the most advanced species possible - Do computers use a form of telepathy to communicate with one another? He even takes us behind the scenes of his work as a consultant on the hit film ARRIVAL, explaining how alien logograms connect to his research on how language shapes human thought, what abstract concepts a bigger brain could comprehend, and what kinds of ideas we might be biologically incapable of imagining. If you're fascinated by astrophysics, AI, consciousness, aliens, evolution, mathematics, language, or the limits of human understanding, this episode of MBB will challenge everything you think you know!
