A Busy - and Expensive - Summer for AI, with NYT's Mike Isaac
What makes a particular engineer worth $250 million to Mark Zuckerberg?
What does Trump 2.0 mean — and not mean — to people building large language models?
I didn’t know the answers to these questions either. So I got the New York Times’ Mike Isaac, who covers this stuff for a living, to walk me through some of the biggest questions in AI right now — which means we’re also getting at some of the biggest questions in tech.
Warning: This is a pants-free episode. Probably still Safe For Work, though.
