When most people think about deep space exploration, management acumen is generally not the first thing they settle on—but without it, no robotic mission would ever succeed. This week we are joined by Jay Gallentine, author of multiple books on the robotic exploration of space. Each of these tomes is a somewhat of a masterpiece; a deep dive into a topic that few explore in such detail. His newest book, "Born to Explore," started off as a book about robots exploring Mars, but his interviews with former JPL manager John Casani was so compelling that he transformed it into a biography. John Casani is a legend at JPL and NASA, and his story reads like a combination of a spaceflight adventure, personal memoir, and a pirate's tale. You'll love the book, and you'll love hearing about it from Jay. Join us!

Dan Moren of SixColors joins Mikah Sargent again on Tech News Weekly! Grammarly is facing a class action lawsuit over its AI "Expert Review" feature. Live Nation's settlement with the DOJ does very little. A recap of Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain. And China is obsessed with OpenClaw AI.

Dan talks about a class-action lawsuit brought against Grammarly and its company, Superhuman, over its AI "Expert Review" feature that offered editing suggestions as if they came from various authors and academics, without their consent.

Mikah, and many others, are perplexed at the DOJ's settlement with Live Nation Entertainment and what little Live Nation had to concede as part of the settlement.

Abrar Al-Heeti of CNET stops by to share her experience at MWC (Mobile World Congress) in Barcelona and what she and her CNET colleagues saw there.

And Mikah shares about China's obsession with the OpenClaw AI craze and how users are utilizing the AI agent.
