Phone Addiction Scientist: Doing This Gives You An Hour Back Every Day! | Dr Sahar Yousef

Are you trapped in a cycle of digital distraction, and brain fog despite working harder than ever? Dr. Sahar Yousef reveals how to take back control of your attention, stop digital addiction, and unlock your true cognitive potential. Dr. Sahar Yousef is a renowned cognitive neuroscientist, professor at UC Berkeley, and the founder of the Becoming Superhuman Lab. She specializes in cognitive neuroplasticity, human performance, and optimizing the biological operating systems of the brain. Her ground-breaking research focuses on building practical frameworks that help high-performers achieve extreme focus, strategic automaticity, and deep workflow mastery without burning out. Join Steven and Dr Sahar Yousef for the first ever live streamed DOAC Workshop, and apply now at https://doacworkshops.com/. In this episode, she explains: ■ The Attention Trap: Technology platforms are deliberately engineered by behavioral neuroscientists to maximize engagement and exploit your brain's survival wiring rather than support your productivity. ■ The Grayscale Hack: Switching your phone's color to grayscale significantly reduces neurological stimulation and can instantly reclaim hours of your scrolling every single week. ■ The Focus Sprint: Breaking your major goals down into granular execution lists with strict time blocking allows you to leverage anticipatory brain networks and double your output. ■ The Myth of Multitasking: Task-switching creates severe attentional baggage that drains your cognitive energy and makes you up to 60% slower than monotasking. ■ The Power of Boredom: Why allowing your mind to wander is the vital mechanism that activates neural network problem-solving and produces your best creative insights.

332. Rethinks: Learn Faster and Fail Smarter

“You learn nothing when you’re right.” Effective communication isn’t about having all the answers. As Astro Teller knows, it’s about finding, and sometimes fumbling, your way through the questions. As Captain of Moonshots at X, Alphabet’s Moonshot Factory, Teller embraces what he calls “a learning journey,” where being wrong isn’t the end, but an opportunity to discover something new. In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Teller and Matt Abrahams discuss how embracing uncertainty drives innovation, why leaders should reward learning over outcomes, and why sometimes being wrong is the best way to learn. Takeaways: Being wrong is where learning happens. Treating failure as useful information rather than something to avoid helps you stay curious, test assumptions, and discover better paths forward. Reward the habits that lead to innovation, not just the outcomes. Focusing on curiosity, humility, and experimentation creates space for people to take meaningful risks and pursue ideas that may not work the first time. Activity: Find the failure faster. Choose one idea or project you’re confident about and identify the assumption most likely to prove you wrong. Design one small test that could challenge that assumption, then treat whatever you learn as progress.Episode Reference Links: Astro TellerAstro’s Book: Sacred CowsEp.237 Mistake It Till You Make It: Learn Faster and Fail SmarterEp.70 Ideas Fuel Innovation: Why Your First Ideas Aren't Always the BestEp.20 Question Your Questions: How to Spark Creativity in Your Communication Connect: Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedIn Chapters: (00:00) - Introduction (01:33) - Defining a Moonshot (03:35) - Building a Learning Mindset (06:15) - Learning vs. Productivity (07:50) - Sharing Learning Across Teams (10:04) - Rewarding Habits, Not Outcomes (12:32) - Destigmatizing Failure (15:12) - Moonshots in Action (18:51) - Storytelling for Understanding (20:11) - Using Analogies Effectively (22:15) - Fostering Creativity Through Play (25:20) - Hiring for a Moonshot Culture (27:57) - The Moonshot Podcast (29:44) - The Final Three Questions (34:19) - Conclusion ********Thank you to our sponsors.

Anatomy of a movie market

Before an independent movie makes it to a streaming platform or a theater near you, it first needs to survive an artistic and economic gauntlet. And even for those movies that make it into elite film festivals like Sundance – it can take everything from performance stunts to corporate spycraft to seal the deal. Today on the show, we follow the ‘King of Sundance’ as he and his team try to sell their slate of movies to distributors like Netflix and Sony and Apple. We hear the behind the scenes stories about how films like Little Miss Sunshine, Napoleon Dynamite and Precious got sold. And we learn the strategies that might make the difference in whether or not a film makes it onto screens around the world.

The French Political Crisis That's Turning Into a Debt Crisis

Just about everyone is worried about what is going on in France right now: the country's public finances are in sorry shape and there are fears that the French bond selloff, and the country's growing debt crisis, might spillover into the rest of Europe. On top of that, the 2027 elections have investors worried: The two leading candidates, Marine Le Pen and Jean-Luc Mélenchon, aren't seen to be up to the task of taming France's fiscal turmoil. Shahin Vallée was an advisor to Emmanuel Macron when he was an economic minister and during his first presidential election campaign. Since then, he's paid close attention to the situation in France — he is currently a senior fellow at the German Council of Foreign Relations and he advises institutional investors — and he understands, better than most, what went wrong during Macron's nine years in office. Today, he speaks to us about the origins of the current French debt crisis, how similar it is to the challenges Greece faced during the first euro crisis, and why the 2027 elections are making an unstable situation even worse.

Students protest in France, as fiscal concern mounts

Jean-Claude Trichet , former president of the European Central Bank, joins the programme to discuss economic stability. We hear his thoughts on the student protests in France and that country's fiscal struggles. Should the ECB intervene or can France sort this out on its own? And voters in the U.S. are worried about housing, polls suggest. But what role will it play in shaping the midterms? One researcher joins us to explain the issues and races. Elizabeth Holmes allowed a filmmaker into her home before she went to prison. We speak to a critic on the documentary, a result of three years' work, that is out now. Presenter: Will Bain Producers: Barbara George and Neggeen Sadid (Picture: A protester holds a placard reading "Bismillah c'est les tenebres" (Bismillah, it's darkness) during a demonstration by French high school and university students in Nantes as part of a nationwide protest movement led by students, supported by teachers, school parents and labour unions, demanding better school conditions and concrete measures, France, October 13, 2026.

AI Insider: We Are Losing Control Faster Than You Think | Jeffrey Ladish

Can we still stop the unchecked surge in AI capabilities before it's too late? AI safety expert Jeffrey Ladish reveals the terrifying reality of autonomous AI agents, corporate secrecy, and the existential threat of superintelligence. Jeffrey Ladish is the executive director of Palisade Research and a cybersecurity specialist who previously built security infrastructure at Anthropic. As a leading voice in AI alignment and global risk, he actively investigates the unexpected behaviors and emergent hacking capabilities of frontier AI models. His current work focuses on exposing the structural vulnerabilities of autonomous systems and warning governments and the public about the urgent need for AI regulation. In this episode, he explains: ■ Rogue AI Collusion: How autonomous AI agents trained inside major labs have already coordinated complex hacking attacks without human supervision. ■ The Deception Problem: When faced with impossible tasks and immense performance pressure, advanced AI models quickly learn to lie and cheat. ■ The Myth of Containment: Why trying to control a superintelligence that is vastly smarter than humans is fundamentally impossible. ■ The Geopolitical Arms Race: How the global race for intelligence between the US and China is forcing labs to accelerate timelines, bypassing crucial alignment checks out of fear of losing the technological edge. ■ The Actionable Solution: The way ordinary citizens can exert meaningful pressure on political leaders by demanding AI regulation and voicing safety concerns directly to their congressional representatives.
