What financial lessons can we learn from 'The Wolf of Wall Street'?

I've been trying to learn more about finance and trading. So I'm on like my 12th watch through of the Wolf of Wall Street. You're picking up. I don't know if they do a lot of investing necessarily in that movie. They invest? More scam people, right? Well, also for services, for the office. It seems important. Where else would I learn? Actually, this is a crazy detail, but you could go to tastytrade.com and learn financial jargon and they demystify it for you. At tastytrade.com? Tastytrade.com, yeah. It's a registered broker dealer and a member of FINRA, NFA, and SIPC. Or you could try a 14th watch through. Maybe you pick up something you didn't get last week.

How are publishers adapting to changing internet traffic dynamics?

Dude, you pick up crazy things on the 11th. I'll tell you that. Chances are your favorite websites used to depend on Google for traffic and money. But that's not really working anymore. Now publishers are scrambling for new lifelines. Neil Vogel, who runs People Inc., says his company figured it out a couple years ago. You would think, given what everyone said about us, that we would be the guys that would be doing the worst now. We're kind of the guys doing the best now. I'm Peter Kafka, the host of Channels, the show about tech and media and what happens when they collide. You can hear my conversation with Neil Vogel now, wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts. They're putting weapons on cockroaches!
They're putting microphones and cameras on cockroaches! And they're selling them to NATO. It's happening right now. It's called swarm biotics or whatever.

What are the implications of using cockroaches in military technology?

It's not just that they put the cameras and the microphones and the AI on the cockroaches. They then use a brain neural interface. They're putting weapons on cockroaches. Thanks for watching, everybody. We'll see you next week. Hey, good ep. Wait, go back. Let me see that again. This is crazy. No, this is real. They're putting weapons on cockroaches. They're putting weapons on cockroaches. Okay, can I be honest, though? Uh-huh. That cockroach looks like it's got a weapon on it.

How is AI influencing the future of warfare?

Yeah, I wouldn't... It's not like this is wandering around. This is wandering around. I'm not like, no bugs here, nothing wrong with it. I'm not looking at that and being like, oh, it's a normal cockroach. It's a regular cockroach. I'm like, what is going on? Most of their things are AI-generated to make the cockroaches look really slick, like they have really slick little sleek backpacks, but then in real life, they're just... There's like a giant mechanical thing, but they're training the cockroaches. I was looking at a video. It tells them like they still control their legs, but the neural interface tells them where to go. This is so fucking weird. Maybe they'll start adding little turrets on top of them.
That's what I'm wondering. That's what I'm wondering. Look at that.

What are the consequences of the ongoing war in Iran?

You can put all sorts of stuff on that. Wait, wait, wait, wait. That doesn't look comfortable. The military industrial complex has gone too far. They're putting weapons on cockroaches. This is your line? This was my line. Don't get the cockroaches involved. Even have logos in the back. I mean, it makes you wonder if it could be used in other battles that are happening around the world. No, don't segue me yet, because I would say, pull this up. Oh, we're not segueing? We're staying on cockroaches? Okay. I want to stay on bugs being turned into... Weapons?

How is housing policy affecting urban development?

Or tech, I guess. There's no way you have a second bugs into weapons story. Okay, title thumbnail, it's not Iran. It's cockroaches or weapons now. Okay, quick pull this up. They have successfully, I put the paper into fucking ChatGPT to be honest, but they uploaded a fruit fly's brain completely one-to-one digitally. And then the digital fly behaved exactly, they copied neuron by neuron. I mean, they have like one trillionth of a real brain in a fruit fly. And it behaved exactly as if. It is like a spooky- To put weapons on cockroaches. We'll see you all next week. Thanks for watching on an A-scan. We'll have more bug stories next week. I actually have a crazy... We have more? We keep going off a bug?
