Tech Whistleblower: You Only Have 3 Years Left Before It Hits! — Mo Gawdat

AI Expert Mo Gawdat returns to The Diary Of A CEO to reveal why AGI has already arrived, why 30% of jobs will disappear by 2027, and why the most dangerous thing about AI isn’t the technology — it’s the people in charge of it.

Mo Gawdat is the former Chief Business Officer at Google X, founder of One Billion Happy, and co-founder of Emma. Love. He is a 4x international bestselling author, and his upcoming book ‘Alive: A Human’s Guide to Living in the World of AI’, will be released in October 2026.

He explains:
◾How AI can give you a 400-point IQ boost, and why most people are wasting it.
◾ Why Mo actually wants a machine smarter than all of humanity to take control.
◾Why Sam Altman said AI will \.

Deep brain stimulation induces white matter remodeling and functional changes to brain-wide networks

In a nonhuman primate model, Fujimoto et al. show that deep brain stimulation promotes white matter remodeling and reorganizes brain-wide functional networks, detailing a mechanism through which this neuromodulation therapy may treat depression.

Smaller nanoplastics trigger stronger changes in brain neuron activity

Smaller plastic particles have more effects on neurons, the key information processing cells of the brain, new research from the University of Eastern Finland shows. In the study, neuronal cells were exposed to polystyrene nanoplastics at low doses to study subtle changes.

Plastic production continues to rise, despite worldwide concerns. In addition to environmental implications, there is an increasing interest in how exposure to plastics may impact human health, but our understanding is still limited. Only recently it was shown that plastics can accumulate also in the human brain.

Plastic particles smaller than 5,000 nm in diameter are called microplastics, and the smallest plastic particles with a diameter of less than 1,000 nm are called nanoplastics. The small size of nanoplastics enables them to interact with various cell types, and other particles or biological mass, such as bacteria. Compared to microplastics, nanoplastics have larger adsorption capacity and penetrate through biological barriers more easily. This makes them potentially more harmful and a compelling target for research in the field of neurobiology.

E.W. Dijkstra Archive: On the cruelty of really teaching computing science (EWD 1036)

For Dijkstra, programming was closer to mathematics than to a craft. The goal wasn’t to “get a feel” for code. The goal was to reason about it rigorously, to understand why it works before discovering whether it works.


The second part of this talk pursues some of the scientific and educational consequences of the assumption that computers represent a radical novelty. In order to give this assumption clear contents, we have to be much more precise as to what we mean in this context by the adjective “radical”. We shall do so in the first part of this talk, in which we shall furthermore supply evidence in support of our assumption.

The usual way in which we plan today for tomorrow is in yesterday’s vocabulary. We do so, because we try to get away with the concepts we are familiar with and that have acquired their meanings in our past experience. Of course, the words and the concepts don’t quite fit because our future differs from our past, but then we stretch them a little bit. Linguists are quite familiar with the phenomenon that the meanings of words evolve over time, but also know that this is a slow and gradual process.

It is the most common way of trying to cope with novelty: by means of metaphors and analogies we try to link the new to the old, the novel to the familiar. Under sufficiently slow and gradual change, it works reasonably well; in the case of a sharp discontinuity, however, the method breaks down: though we may glorify it with the name “common sense”, our past experience is no longer relevant, the analogies become too shallow, and the metaphors become more misleading than illuminating. This is the situation that is characteristic for the “radical” novelty.

How AI & Quantum Computing Will Transform Zero Trust Cybersecurity

By Chuck Brooks, president of Brooks Consulting International and one of Executive Mosaic’s GovCon Experts

In Zero Trust cybersecurity protocols there is no implicit trust of identity or privilege – inside or outside the network perimeter, and every person, device, application and transaction must be continuously verified.

Zero Trust is a framework that is adaptive and it has to be in today’s digital ecosystem. Emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence and quantum computing are no longer merely enablers but core disruptors. They broaden attack surfaces, but also offer significant defenses, and call for a rethinking of Zero Trust systems.

The PROOF We’re In A Simulation Is Hiding In Plain Sight

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu. In today’s episode, Tom Bilyeu dives deep into one of the most provocative questions facing science and philosophy: Do we really have free will, or are we all just highly sophisticated NPCs—non-player characters—running a program inside a vast, resource-efficient simulation? Drawing on groundbreaking neuroscience experiments, the story of Phineas Gage, quantum mechanics, and the work of leading thinkers like Robert Sapolsky, Tom Bilyeu challenges everything we think we know about choice, consciousness, and the true nature of reality.

But this isn’t an episode about nihilism. Instead, Tom Bilyeu reveals why embracing the truth of a stochastically deterministic universe can actually make life feel more meaningful, freeing us from the weight of the past and inspiring us to make the most of every moment—programmed or not. Get ready to question your assumptions and see the world from a whole new perspective.
