In this episode, Ray Cochrane returns to the studio in Michigan and leads with PHP2Shell. Those two PHP bugs, found with AI help, led sites from DeviantArt to government portals to go dark on purpose. Additionally, he covers OpenAI's forward-deployed engineers, Anthropic's Claude Frontier Academy, Apple's American iPhone suppliers, Euclid's first comet, and a new date for The Starry Night.
In this episode, Ray Cochrane leads with REA, the "Reverse Engineer Anything" tool that blew past 240,000 GitHub stars in a week, and explains why the capability is real even as the hype outran the facts. Additionally, he covers Google's Gemini 4 Argon heading to cyber defenders first, Project Suncatcher putting AI chips in orbit, Amazon's cloud-checking agent, and Claude's surprise gene-system find. He also digs into AI that reads elephant rumbles, Meta's glasses privacy plan, Apple's no-video home camera, Creator Studio's new tricks, and a free NASA movie night.
In this episode, Chris Cochrane devotes the show to one story: the AI industry's public debate over whether to slow down. He covers Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei's essay "We Must Pace the Frontier," the rivals who backed it, Sam Altman's two worst-case outcomes, and Amodei telling CBS the industry lied about risk. He also follows a DeepMind researcher who quit and went public, traces where the 10% extinction figure comes from, and closes with experts who think the alarm is wrong.
In this episode, Ray covers the fight that broke out after Anthropic published five case files on scientists using Claude for pathogen research, and the virologists who read the same files and called the work basic research. Additionally, he digs into DeepMind's AlphaGenome Atlas mapping nine billion DNA variants, OpenAI's numbers-free customer story about Perplexity, Gemini's late arrival on Windows, and John Deere's self-repair service that almost nobody uses. Finally, the show closes with Europe's new plant-fluorescence satellite, a super El Niño already collecting damage, and a plankton shell that may be hiding a second species.
In this episode, Ray Cochrane devotes the whole show to Apple's fall event, the first under new CEO John Ternus. He starts with the iPhone Duo, Apple's first foldable iPhone.

In this episode, Ray Cochrane records from the Michigan studio on the one year anniversary of losing the show's original host, Todd Cochrane.

I've often come back to find my preferred work location already occupied. To ease the overcrowding and stop the complaining, I've
As regular readers of GNC will know, I've reviewed a fair number of gadgets over the years, but I've never laid my hands on a full Android TV device.
