On today's news roundup: Meta pauses its plans in the EU and splits in two, while former OpenAI chief scientist goes all-in on AI safety.

AI is changing the employment game on both sides. Applicants are looking for new ways to differentiate themselves and remain relevant, while employers are trying to balance rapidly shifting technology alongside very real security and liability concerns. Perhaps no one is better positioned to share insight into this tug of war than Santiago Nisnik, head of product development at Athyna (one of the leading international hiring firms). From the perspective of years of data, coupled with hundreds of applicants and employers, Santiago shares why AI is about to transform the hiring process and how new opportunities will touch the global employment pool.

On today's news roundup, Apple finally reveals its AI, which prompts Elon Musk to issue them an ultimatum, which is immediately followed by Musk dropping his OpenAI lawsuit. Thing happen fast around here.

I've said this before, and I'll say it again:AI isn't smart, it's fast.It can't "take" your job, especially if you're staying on top of things. Yes, there's a steep learning curve to using generative AI. But if we're honest, that curve is less about the technology and more about the fact that humans are just naturally obstinate creatures.To help drive this point home, we're on with Ray Hayden, Senior instructional designer at the Society of Human Resource Management (SHRM to its friends), who shares his thoughts on why it can be hard to learn something new, and why the success of AI is impossible without the human touch.

On this week's news roundup: Hugging Face has a major security breach, Microsoft lays the groundwork for a future cyber security disaster, and the OpenAI/Google whistleblower saga continues.

Though AI gets thrown around a lot, the reality is the underlying architecture has been around for a LONG time. Specifically, predictive analytics has been a lynchpin of everything from economics and farming, to baseball and video games. One of the most important, and lesser known, implementations is the U.S. college admissions process. Over the last few decades, the cost of higher education in the United States has skyrocketed (with no signs of slowing down). Much of this has to do with predictive analytics and the business of "strategic enrollment management". That is, the science of maximizing students applications while minimizing financial aid. We're on with Alan Katzman, founder of Social Assurity, on how he's watching the data flow from students to college, his experience around the metrics that dictate who gets how much for college, and his thoughts on how AI is primed to upend the entire system.

This week's news roundup continues the Sam Altman and OpenAI saga, and bring Elon Musk back into our collective consciousness.

With so much clickbait, you'd be forgiven for thinking generative AI was only for making pictures of world leaders as animals and frightening us with imitations of consciousness. But the possibilities of generative AI are endless, especially when combined with existing technology like Wifi. We're on with Origin Wifi CCO Tony Nicolaidis on what exactly is wifi sensing technology, why it's primed to disrupt everything from security to daycares, and how AI is boosting it's processing on an exponential curve.

This week's recap is entirely focused on AI safety, or possibly the lack thereof.
