Is AI making your life easier at the cost of your brain?

In this episode, we dig into the hidden consequences of overusing AI tools like ChatGPT. From memory loss to reduced critical thinking, the science is clear — we’re outsourcing more than just tasks. We’re outsourcing our intelligence.

You’ll learn:

• Why your reliance on AI might be quietly eroding your cognitive strength

• What neuroscience and education studies are revealing about AI’s side effects

• How to rebuild mental resilience without ditching the tools

• The 3 strategies I use to stay sharp while still using AI every day

This is not an anti-AI rant. It’s a wake-up call for professionals who want to stay valuable in an automated world.

Last year, the music industry went to war with AI.
This year, they're asking for royalties, equity — and control.

In this episode, we break down what’s really happening behind closed doors between Suno, Udio, and the major music labels. It’s not just about music. It’s about who gets counted, who gets paid, and who gets left behind as AI becomes part of the creative process.

If you're a marketer, artist, or leader trying to make sense of where AI is taking us — this one matters.

We’ll cover:

• Why the labels flipped from lawsuits to licensing

• What these deals mean for creators and brands

• The quiet threat of uncredited training data

• What every industry can learn from what’s happening in music

One big question:
If AI is learning from our work, who’s protecting the people behind the data?

Some AI models are lying.
Others refuse to shut down.
And one even simulated blackmail.

This episode unpacks the story behind LawZero, a new $30 million nonprofit founded by AI legend Yoshua Bengio. His goal? Build AI that tells the truth — and block the ones that don’t.

We cover:
– Real-world cases of AI misbehavior
– Why Bengio says we’re “playing with fire”
– The difference between agentic AI and Scientist AI
– What this means for your business, your tools, and your trust

If you’ve ever wondered who’s watching the AI while it watches us, this is the episode.
