We Made AI Analyze Everything We've Ever Said

Summary

In their 200th episode, the hosts review nearly 200 transcripts to surface recurring AI investment themes, track how the landscape has changed over 14 months, and outline where they believe the puck is going. They celebrate early correct calls such as ‘compute is king’ and the memory chip thesis, while highlighting emerging areas like space-based model training, local AI models on edge devices, specialized applications in drug discovery, and robotics at scale. The conversation remains broadly optimistic and frames SpaceX and Tesla as key beneficiaries of the next phase of AI deployment.
