Om avsnittet
In this episode of Invest Like The Best, Patrick O'Shaughnessy is joined by Gavin Baker to dissect the unprecedented AI technology boom. Gavin explains why recent growth from companies like Anthropic represents the most extraordinary moment in the history of capitalism. They explore the critical constraints of the AI build-out—"watts and wafers"—and how capitalism, from TSMC's chip manufacturing dominance to SpaceX's potential orbital compute, is racing to solve them. Gavin also unpacks the competitive landscape of chip design, the struggles at the AI application layer, and the shifting dynamics between giants like Google, Meta, Amazon, and Microsoft. Finally, they discuss the geopolitical risks of AGI alongside the incredible potential for AI to revolutionize biotech and extend human life. An essential listen for anyone navigating modern tech markets.
