In this episode of Discover Daily, hosts Alex and Sienna begin with Liquid AI's new Liquid Foundation Models, which are challenging traditional large language model architectures. They also discuss Telegram's significant shift in privacy policy, as the messaging app agrees to share user data with authorities in response to legal requests, raising concerns about the balance between user privacy and legal compliance.

The main story of the episode focuses on the fascinating phenomenon of melting glaciers in the Alps, which are causing the border between Switzerland and Italy to shift. As climate change accelerates glacial retreat, the two countries have had to come together to redefine their frontier officially. This situation not only symbolizes the dramatic impact of global warming but also has practical implications for land management, tourism, and national security.The hosts delve into the economic consequences of these border changes, such as the potential impact on ski resorts, cross-border tourism, and labor markets. They also discuss how this is just one example of the far-reaching effects of climate change, with rising sea levels and melting Arctic ice leading to similar challenges in other regions. The episode emphasizes the need for international cooperation and individual action to address the complex geopolitical, economic, and social consequences of a changing climate.
