Today’s podcast episode was created from the following stories:
How Google Cloud and Gemini are powering Fox coverage of the MLB World Series
Fox Sports is using Fox Foresight, built on Google’s Vertex AI and Gemini, to surface real-time stats and storylines for World Series broadcasts. The system answers specific, in-game questions in seconds and supports follow‑ups, while a separate “Connie” agent monitors feeds to preempt broadcast issues. It’s a clear example of enterprise AI quietly elevating live sports production.
Inside the “Dreamforce of healthcare,” where AI hype and fear were hand in hand
At HLTH in Las Vegas, AI was everywhere—alongside fatigue, bubble worries, and tough new competition from Epic, OpenAI, and Anthropic. While investors poured money into startups like OpenEvidence ($200M), hospital leaders warned of oversaturated niches and called for responsible deployment. Bright spots included pharma’s deepening use of AI and new safety benchmarks for clinical tools.
Android users will soon get to experience OpenAI’s viral Sora app
OpenAI confirmed Sora is coming to Android, adding features like character cameos, trending cameo discovery, improved social spaces, and basic in‑app editing. Until launch, users can install a PWA from sora.com to mimic an app experience. Sora’s rapid growth signals how AI‑generated short video is moving from novelty to mainstream social content.
The AI boom is keeping employees well paid. It’s also not letting them go anywhere.
Soaring chipmaker stocks have turned RSU packages into “golden handcuffs” that discourage employees from leaving before vesting. With Nvidia, AMD, and Broadcom shares up dramatically, even modest grants can now be worth multiples of salary. The retention effect is showing up in lower turnover rates—and hard career tradeoffs for workers.
Chipmakers Nvidia, AMD, and Broadcom are slapping ‘golden handcuffs’ on workers to meet demand for the AI boom
Business Insider details how surging valuations have turned multi-year RSUs into million‑dollar paydays—if employees stay put. Some firms are front‑loading vesting to attract talent, while long‑timers see outsized gains that reshape incentives and morale. The result: powerful retention, uneven equity windfalls, and a workforce balancing loyalty with opportunity cost.
How Sam Altman is eclipsing Mark Zuckerberg in shaping how we think
The piece argues we’re shifting from the social media era of identity curation (Zuckerberg) to the AI era of identity creation (Altman). With ChatGPT’s 800M weekly users, AI increasingly drafts our words, plans, and even intimacy—raising risks for publishers, mental health, and how we form intent. Meta is racing to catch up, but AI’s “funnel” model changes the information power balance.
I turned my YouTube playlist into a study podcast with NotebookLM
A hands‑on guide shows how NotebookLM ingests playlist transcripts and generates an “Audio Overview” podcast to summarize key ideas. With smart curation, custom prompts, and add‑ons like flashcards and quizzes, learners can convert scattered videos into a coherent, evolving curriculum. It’s a practical blueprint for turning generative AI into a study coach.
AIでニュース見るの、もうやめた方がいい？ 誤報率は45％
An EBU study across 18 countries found major issues in 45% of AI assistant news answers, with source problems most common and accuracy close behind. Models varied—Gemini showed the most issues overall (though improving), while ChatGPT and Perplexity were mixed—raising concerns about trust, traffic to credible outlets, and rising youth reliance on AI for news. As AI browsers and AI‑search expand, the report warns these systems aren’t yet reliable for news consumption.
