With millions racing to embrace AI assistants and cybercriminals pivoting to new, high-stakes tactics, the episode tackles the dizzying pace of change and asks: just how worried should we be? The discussion pulls back the curtain on AI's unpredictable power, the escalation of digital extortion, and why the next breach may hit closer to home than you think.

Hands-On AI is the show that turns AI confusion into AI confidence. In this introductory episode, Mikah Sargent lays out what the show is and isn't: short, focused episodes — most 10 to 15 minutes — that take one question, one tool, or one technique at a time. Some weeks go under the hood on what a large language model is actually doing. Some weeks get practical: the AI already in your pocket, or a model running entirely on your own computer. And some weeks are honest verdicts on the tools everyone's talking about.

This show is a conversation. Send your AI questions to handsonai@twit.tv or reach out on TWiT's social media, and you might hear your question answered on the show.

This lively episode tackles the tension between relentless innovation and apparent human oversight in today's weird tech world.

We're back again, a little jet lagged, and ready for fun! Up first is a mind-bending experiment to run VMs through a kernel reboot, followed by Ubuntu's new approach to kernel updates. There's a clever security flaw in inotify, another group working on Apple hardware Linux, and some divisive news about the Raspberry Pi. KDE's AI discussion blew up, Stema has a new streaming codec, and VLC and SPEC have updates worth talking about. For tips, we have the Starling Desktop, zoxide to spice up your cd life, lltag for managing audio metadata, and pstree for a tree view of processes. The show notes are at https://bit.ly/4rCvsWz and have a groovy week!
