- Who decides when AI is too dangerous?
My guest today is Hayden Field, senior AI reporter for The Verge . Often when Hayden comes on the show, it’s because something has gone wrong in the world of AI. Last weekend, that something was a pretty intense mix of Anthropic, the Trump administration, and Anthropic’s new AI model, Fable 5. Hayden actually just published a fantastic play-by-play on The Verge about how the Fable ban went down, and the scramble through the weekend from both sides to figure out what exactly happened and how it might get resolved. So I wanted her to come on and just walk me through the timeline and what it all means.

- #184 - Helen Pluckrose - Liberalism, Free Speech & the Authoritarian Turn
Helen Pluckrose joins me to discuss how liberalism was lost and why free speech, individual liberty and viewpoint diversity need to be defended from both the authoritarian left and the authoritarian right. Helen explains why liberalism does not mean “left wing”, why it is better understood as the opposite of authoritarianism, and how critical social justice, identity politics and language policing have changed the way people think, speak and behave. We discuss woke ideology, DEI, equality vs equity, trans rights, queer theory, free speech, institutional capture and why suppressing ideas usually makes them more powerful. <...

- The AI Skills Nobody is Teaching (And Everyone Needs) with AI Expert Ethan Mollick
Be honest: AI makes you a little nervous. Maybe you're afraid it'll take your job. Maybe you're overwhelmed by all the advice about prompts and agents and which chatbot to use. Or maybe you're just quietly hoping it'll all slow down. Ethan Mollick says we're underestimating our own agency in the age of AI. Instead of worrying about what AI will do to us, we should focus on what we choose to do with it. Ethan is a Wharton professor, the author of the bestseller Co-Intelligence: Living and Working with AI , and the writer behind “One Useful Thing,” one of the most popular newsletters on AI, work, and education. He's spent twenty years studying how people actually use technology, and he's become the go-to voice for making sense of AI without the hype or the doom. And in his new book, Co-Existence: The Next Phase of AI , he explores what comes next as AI moves from a tool we prompt to a presence we live and work alongside. In this conversation, Ethan shares the practical playbook most of us are missing and makes the case that our experience, taste, and point of view aren't things AI replaces. They're exactly what make us better at using it. In this episode you'll learn: ➡️ Why young people are NOT "AI natives" (and why experience is the real AI advantage) ➡️ The $20 decision that instantly upgrades how you use AI ➡️ Why AI agrees with everything you say + the simple prompt that fixes it ➡️ How to make AI write in YOUR voice instead of sounding like everyone else ➡️ The "jagged frontier": what AI is surprisingly bad at (and why that's your opportunity) ➡️ Why taste may become the most valuable skill of the AI era ➡️ How much agency we really have over where AI takes us Ethan believes that the future of AI isn't something that will just happen to us… It's something we get to build together.

- Skydio CEO argues more drones will make us safer
Today, I’m talking with Slydio CEO Adam Bry, who runs the leading US maker of autonomous drones. We covered a lot in this conversation, including Skydio’s police and government work at a time when military use of AI is more controversial than ever and competing with Chinese drones against the backdrop of the Trump’s administration’s DJI ban. There’s a lot in this one – maybe more than anything, it was refreshing to hear Adam talk about using AI to bring even more people to work at Skydio as the company expands. I also got to fly a drone, which ruled.

- 유키즈 Interview with Jensen Huang
Jubilee Life Coach: Daily Meditations Season 1, Episode 84 "The Man Who Never Stopped Being Afraid" 성공해도 두렵다 Christian Worldview for Everyday | jubileecoach.com EPISODE DESCRIPTION One of the most successful men in the world wakes up afraid. Every single day. Jensen Huang — the CEO of Nvidia, the company that helped ignite the artificial intelligence revolution — has said that even now, leading a company worth trillions of dollars, he still carries the quiet dread of a man who knows how fragile everything is. "The phrase '30 days from going out of business' — I've used it for 33 years," he has said. "The feeling doesn't change. The sense of vulnerability, the sense of uncertainty — it doesn't leave you." In this episode, your Jubilee Coach reflects on a recent Korean television interview with Jensen Huang — and what his remarkable story quietly reveals about fear, resilience, character, and the limits of human willpower. Because here is the thing: Jensen Huang is not a man consumed by fear. He is a man formed by it. And the gospel has something to say about that. WHAT WE EXPLORE IN THIS EPISODE We follow Jensen Huang's story through four lenses: 1. The Question That Stopped the Room In the Korean TV interview, the host offered Jensen Huang a simple choice: perfect prediction of the future, or unbreakable resilience. Without hesitation, he chose resilience. His reason was quiet and clear — and it opens a window into how character is actually formed. 2. What Brené Brown Would Notice Researcher Brené Brown has spent decades studying vulnerability and courage. In Daring Greatly (2012), she argues that vulnerability is not weakness — it is our greatest measure of courage. Jensen Huang's story is a living illustration of exactly that. But it also reveals something Brown's research alone cannot fully answer. 3. The Kind of Fear There is an old saying among preachers: Fear God and you will not be afraid of anything else. Fear not God and you will be afraid of everything. Psalm 112 puts it beautifully: "Blessed is the man who fears the LORD... He will have no fear of bad news. His heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD." Jensen Huang manages fear through will and character. That is admirable. But the gospel offers something better — not managing fear, but displacing it with a greater one. 4. What the Reformed Tradition Has Always Known The Scriptures do not promise a life free of adversity. They promise something far more useful. James 1:2–4 reminds us that the testing of faith produces perseverance — hypomoné in Greek — not passive resignation, but active, grounded endurance. David Powlison of CCEF observed that darkness, loss, and disillusionment are among the very means by which God shapes genuine faith. Jensen Huang does not share our faith. But what he has discovered empirically, the Reformed tradition has confessed theologically for centuries: suffering does not derail the story. It is often where the story really begins. KEY QUOTES "Intelligence is easy. Knowledge is easy. But character is hard. Resilience is hard. That can only be galvanized and shaped through life experience — giving yourself the opportunity to fail and come back." — Jensen Huang, Korean TV Interview (2025) "Blessed is the man who fears the LORD... He will have no fear of bad news; his heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD." — Psalm 112:1, 7 (NIV) "Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything." — James 1:2–4 (NIV) JUBILEE COACH'S QUESTIONS May I close with a few questions? Not as assignments. Just as gentle invitations. Sit with the one that stirs something in yo

Hey! Nilay here. It’s conference season, so I’m traveling across the country and around the world a lot more than usual.

In the meantime, I wanted to share a conversation between my friend Peter Kafka and Condé Nast CEO Roger Lynch on the excellent Channels podcast. Lynch says he’s told his teams to assume that traffic will be zero from now on — that’s what I’ve been calling Google Zero. Roger also shares his thoughts on AI, the growing influence of the creator economy, and more.

- Mustafa Suleyman on Microsoft’s Humanist Superintelligence Bet
In this episode of The Neuron , Corey Noles sits down with Mustafa Suleyman, CEO of Microsoft AI, at Microsoft Build 2026 to unpack Microsoft’s next AI chapter: seven new MAI models, a push toward in-house model development, and the idea of Humanist Superintelligence. Mustafa explains how Microsoft is thinking about AI that can reason, code, generate images, transcribe speech, and power real products—without turning the future into a vague AGI race. The conversation gets into what “humanist” means in practice, why Microsoft is building models from the ground up, how AI agents may reshape work, and what it takes to keep increasingly capable systems useful, controlled, and aligned with human goals. You’ll learn why Microsoft is investing in its own model family, how MAI-Thinking-1 and MAI-Code-1-Flash fit into the stack, why Suleyman frames superintelligence around human control, and what builders and operators should watch as agents move into real workflows.

I talk to Chris Summerfield about what artificial intelligence reveals about the human mind, and what the brain still does better than today’s AI systems. We discuss why LLMs feel human, how models are trained to be helpful and agreeable, why memory and continual learning remain major unsolved problems in AI, and how sleep helps humans consolidate knowledge.
