Thibault “Tibo” Sottiaux is OpenAI’s head of Product & Platform, making him responsible for the AI tools used by more than a billion users worldwide. Host Rana el Kaliouby spoke with Tibo about why he’s “proud” OpenAI delayed its latest Astra model over safety concerns, the new suite of agentic products released at DevDay, and what it’s like to lead inside a frontier AI company in this extraordinary moment in history. Learn more about Pioneers of AI: http://pioneersof.ai/Follow Pioneers of AI on

Mark Henderson, Engineering Manager at Shielded Labs, shares what it looks like to build privacy infrastructure on a hundred-year time horizon. He also breaks down two of Shielded Labs' most significant technical bets: the Network Sustainability Mechanism, and Crosslink. Mark makes the case that financial privacy and surveillance-based business models are structurally incompatible—true privacy means building systems where the choice not to look is enforced by the protocol, rather than a company

Why are food videos so popular online? And why are the most viral ones also the grossest?Today we’re looking back at the history of food videos, from Food Wishes to the hands-only top-down video style pioneered by Tasty to making cereal in a toilet bowl pioneered by TikTok. Petey USA, a creator and musician who’s had a lot of really weird bad stuff to eat while on tour, joins us to about food video culture online — and why we don’t care if it’s good, bad, or absolutely horrifying — we’re gonna

Protecting people online shouldn’t depend on whether a company keeps its safety tools effective, affordable, and available. ROOST founding president Camille François joins Reid Hoffman and Aria Finger to explain how a nonprofit is turning trust and safety into shared infrastructure. She digs into why social media was a blip in how we build tech, what Discord did after Twitter bought Smyte and shut it down, and how two people running a fandom app caught 19 cases of child exploitation in two weeks. A

You've probably never heard of Inkling. It's the newest (and first) model from Thinking Machines Labs, and it could very well be a small snowball that picks up major momentum in today's enterprise AI landscape. If you haven’t heard of Thinking Machines, they’re led by Mira Murati, the former CTO at OpenAI. The big bet with Inkling? The future of AI could be using smaller models fine-tuned and optimized for smaller tasks. Will it work? Tune in live as ...

As AI becomes startlingly capable, top minds at OpenAI admit they can't always control what their own creations do—or even fully understand how they think. This episode dives into the real-world tension between rapid progress and the growing challenge of keeping AI truly aligned. GLM-5.3 can be and has been abliterated. What does that mean? Firefox 157 repairs a large number of high-impact vulnerabilities. A surprising reduction in RSA crypto strength has been discovered. Powerful agentic AI is

We've made several upgrades to uploading/hosting images on CodePen lately. One change, moving to the open-source file-uploading library Uppy, was driven by business concerns. But the benefits are good for everyone: uploads are faster, and the money we saved let us increase file size limits and total storage limits on the higher PRO plans. Plus, we added a cropping feature to images everywhere.Time Jumps Links

What can Cloudflare do for you? While at KCDC in Kansas City, Richard chatted with Bob Fornal about how his organization uses Cloudflare - not just for content delivery or DDoS protection, but also edge compute - and more! Bob talks about moving workloads between the client and server, where Cloudflare Workers can run some code and save time while staying secure. This leads to a broader conversation about introducing these tools to your organization - it's not likely something web developers will

Anthropic AI IPO Shows $518 Billion in Non-Cancellable Deals - AI Bubble Is HUGE

Pure silicon is a disappointing material: it barely conducts and barely insulates, and you could hold a crystal in your hand and watch it do nothing. So why is it the foundation of a trillion-dollar industry? This episode climbs five levels of complexity, starting with the basic physics of conductors, insulators, and the narrow band gap in between, then descending into electrons, holes, and the doping process that turns a useless crystal into a working device. From there it's p-n junctions, diodes,

This paper presents a rigorous framework for performing valid causal inference when complex covariates are compressed into AI-learned representations or embeddings. The authors demonstrate that information loss from compression distorts causal parameters through a product of regression and balancing weight errors. By leveraging cross-fitted double machine learning (DML), researchers can conduct valid Wald inference either for the specific representation-based target or, under target adaptivity, for
