What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Wharton professor Ethan Mollick says that with AI, his students are doing a semester's worth of work in just a couple of days. In Mollick's classroom, AI is required. I'm Henry Blodgett, and this week on Solutions, I talk to Professor Mollick about how he's radically transformed how he teaches, and how he continues to test the boundaries of what AI can and cannot do. Follow Solutions with Henry Blodgett to hear our conversation.
I think the most chilling thing about the Bondi story is not that, you know, he doesn't like the fact that she handled the Epstein files. In that, I actually agree with him. Maybe I dislike the way she handled the Epstein files in a different direction than him. But like, that is not the chilling part. The chilling part is she is not aggressively enough pursuing his political opponents. And like, she's pretty aggressively like misusing the Department of Justice to go after Donald Trump's political opponents.
What were the key points from Trump's primetime address on the Iran conflict?
And he doesn't think it's far enough.
Welcome to Raging Moderates. I'm Jessica Tarlow. And today I'm joined by Mark Elias, one of the country's top election lawyers, the top election lawyer in the country and the founder of Democracy Docket. Mark, welcome back to the show.
Thanks for having me on.
Absolutely. This is... Perfect, like, Super Bowl timing, actually, to have you join the podcast, though. In the Trump era, it feels like maybe the Super Bowl of fighting them in court is, like, every day.
Where the other team, by the way, periodically, the coach of the other team just sort of, like, wanders up and down the sidelines, like, yelling at clouds.
Yelling at clouds and still getting paid billions of dollars, which also links to your work. If you aren't already, please make sure to subscribe to our YouTube page to stay in the loop on all the political news. I want to start with the primetime address. You watched the 20 minutes. I did. How did you feel?
what was that? Like, literally, what was that? Like, I, you know, I am accustomed to the rambling, hateful Donald Trump. But then there's like the, we put a teleprompter in front of him and make him be really boring, Donald Trump. And last night was just kind of like the, he just was incoherent. Why did, what, why did he need a primetime address for that?
Well, there are, I think that some interns stitch together a bunch of truth social posts, basically. And I should not have aspirations to like actually get something new and coherent or that like moves the country forward or a real policy position from the president. But when they were leaking to the press yesterday, you know, these are the four goals, like what I thought, OK, we're going to hear it's two to three weeks left, the Stone Age line, and maybe there'll be something substantive. But I'm sure the networks are looking around at themselves saying, obviously, we had to take it because Brendan Carr is going to come and assassinate us. But like I delayed Survivor 20 minutes for this. Actually, let's watch a clip of it.
We're now totally independent of the Middle East, and yet we are there to help. We don't have to be there. We don't need their oil. We don't need anything they have, but we're there to help our allies.
Totally independent of the Middle East. Oil just hit $113 a barrel, up 13% just today alone. We don't feel that independent from the Middle East.
No. And like I said, I just as a crowd, you know, I've been around, you know, presidents, presidential candidates, House and Senate members, a lot of politicians. Was that loaded in the teleprompter? Like literally? Like what? Right. Exactly. It was like like who did someone write that and then go home and be like, you know, you're not going to believe I wrote this amazing speech for the president of the United States. And that's what it was. I mean, It's it's incoherent where we're independent of the Middle East. Gas prices are skyrocketing. You know, the markets are reacting negatively. The the you know, the the but we're here to help. I mean, it's just it's either really bad staff work or a president who is much further gone than we than we than we understand or or some combination of both.
