Episode Summary In this episode, we explore four major stories defining the next phase of AI and technology. We begin with Yann LeCun’s ambitious new venture, AMI Labs, which aims to build “world models” capable of understanding the physical world—signaling Europe’s growing role in foundational AI research. We then examine rising concerns about an AI startup bubble, as industry leaders warn against sky-high valuations without sustainable business models. From markets, we move to governance, highlighting how Asia-Pacific courts are cautiously adopting AI while prioritizing ethics, transparency, and human oversight. Finally, we look at Mozilla’s leadership shift and how browsers are evolving into AI-first platforms, reshaping how we interact with the web.   What You’ll Learn in This Episode What “world models” are and why they could be the next breakthrough beyond generative AI Why top AI leaders are warning about inflated startup valuations and potential market corrections How courts in the Asia-Pacific region are balancing AI efficiency with fairness and due process Why browsers are becoming the next battleground for AI—and how Mozilla plans to compete What these trends mean for startups, policymakers, and everyday tech users Key Quotes from the Episode “The next frontier of AI isn’t just language—it’s understanding the real world.” “Innovation without fundamentals doesn’t build lasting companies.” “AI can improve justice systems, but only if humans remain firmly in the loop.” “The browser is no longer just a window to the internet—it’s becoming an AI platform.” “Trust, transparency, and user choice will define who wins in the AI-first web.” Proudly brought to you by PodcastInc www.podcastinc.io in collaboration with our valued partner, DSHGSonic www.dshgsonic.com Connect with Us: Host: Manish Balakrishnan Subscribe: Follow AI News on your favorite podcast platform.
