JOSHUA SHARF USED TO WRITE CODE But now he manages AI that writes code. He joins me at 1 to talk about AI, Large Language Models, and why the future will be full of all of it. I am as much of a luddite as one can be and even I am using AI every day.

Mandy speaks with Daniel, and Israeli man and former IDF Special Forces soldier, who is living in Tel Aviv with his young family as the war rages on.  He gives a great perspective on what it's like to live in Israel, both during active wartime and non-active war time. The interview was interrupted by a ballistic missile attack, something that rattled Mandy far more than it rattled Daniel.  They talk about Israel's perspective on why this is the final war, why Iran's regime must be toppled and how citizens of Israel of all faiths and backgrounds manage day to day life when missiles are raining down.
