In this episode of Business Brain, we dig into the question of who really controls AI. We trade notes on Anthropic’s new Mythos model and its Fable guardrails — including a jaw-dropping account of how relentlessly capable these tools have become — and we wrestle with the bigger issue lurking underneath: when AI decides what we can and can’t do, who’s holding the keys? We talk search-engine parallels, data retention, the push for government oversight, and why locally run, private AI might be the move for protecting our business data while still tapping the power. Then we get practical…

Shannon unpacks the wave of negative press and protests, and the fascinating thread connecting some of the loudest anti-data-center voices to foreign funding—China in particular. We talk through “bring your own infrastructure” mandates, the wild ideas in play like data centers in space and underwater, and why keeping this technology stateside matters for our Economy and Security. It’s lobbying 101, and once we follow the Money, the noise starts to make a lot more sense. …

In this episode of Business Brain, we get into the balance between digital and analog life. Shannon makes the case that being “too online” dulls us, and that we need a real mix of screen time and hands-on, analog work to stay fulfilled. Whether we’re chipping branches with a chainsaw, immersing ourselves in playing music, or losing ourselves in a good book, that shift away from the screen is what keeps us sharp. The trick isn’t choosing one over the other, it’s deliberately moving between deep digital immersion and getting our hands dirty outside. Then we dig into a powerful idea: no…
