This Week in AI: China's Lithography Heist // The Lunar Mass Driver // $15 Billion Deals
Episode Transcript
1
00:00:00,020 --> 00:00:03,960
Josh:
Imagine if bread kept all of humanity alive and there was only one oven maker.
2
00:00:04,220 --> 00:00:10,040
Josh:
And each one of those ovens cost $200 million and they only make about $40 to $50 a year.
3
00:00:10,260 --> 00:00:12,720
Josh:
And they're all based in the Netherlands.
4
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:17,740
Josh:
This is the reality of our tech industry. Your iPhone, your laptop,
5
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:23,540
Josh:
your smart tablets, your TVs, anything with electrical circuits is run by this
6
00:00:23,540 --> 00:00:27,360
Josh:
mysterious company that sits at the top of everybody called ASML.
7
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:30,260
Josh:
Well, we've essentially built the civilizational Jenga tower.
8
00:00:30,420 --> 00:00:35,280
Josh:
They don't own 99.9%. They own 100% of the lithography market.
9
00:00:35,480 --> 00:00:38,900
Josh:
What is the lithography market? Well, it is kind of upstream of everything else.
10
00:00:38,980 --> 00:00:40,920
Josh:
And I think that's what we're going to start this episode talking about today
11
00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:44,800
Josh:
is this invisible monopoly that no one is really aware of that even exists.
12
00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:49,520
Ejaaz:
Everyone thinks that the most important company in AI is NVIDIA.
13
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,440
Ejaaz:
And if you dig a little deeper, everyone says TSMC.
14
00:00:52,660 --> 00:00:56,780
Ejaaz:
But the truth is, this company, ASML, is the only linchpin.
15
00:00:56,800 --> 00:01:01,540
Ejaaz:
It is the most important company that the entire stock market is currently based
16
00:01:01,540 --> 00:01:02,940
Ejaaz:
on. And they're based in the Netherlands.
17
00:01:03,100 --> 00:01:07,640
Ejaaz:
And they do this really interesting thing, which is called EUV,
18
00:01:07,940 --> 00:01:11,480
Ejaaz:
which stands for Extreme Ultraviolet Lithography.
19
00:01:11,660 --> 00:01:16,300
Ejaaz:
It is a way to basically design very intricate patterns on chips that are used
20
00:01:16,300 --> 00:01:20,980
Ejaaz:
to train frontier AI models and inferencing, and even on your mobile phones
21
00:01:20,980 --> 00:01:23,620
Ejaaz:
as well, in a really specific way.
22
00:01:23,740 --> 00:01:27,300
Ejaaz:
It uses a bunch of laser beams, gases, and stuff like that. And it's an incredibly
23
00:01:27,300 --> 00:01:29,380
Ejaaz:
complex and expensive process.
24
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:33,700
Ejaaz:
And this hasn't been something that they've been able to crack or any competitor
25
00:01:33,700 --> 00:01:38,000
Ejaaz:
has been able to crack for decades until this week,
26
00:01:38,100 --> 00:01:43,380
Ejaaz:
where it was revealed that some ex-ASML engineers that were hired by the Chinese
27
00:01:43,380 --> 00:01:50,020
Ejaaz:
government have been able to recreate a prototype of this lithography machine that they have.
28
00:01:50,380 --> 00:01:56,180
Ejaaz:
Now, Josh, here's some crazy stats. This single machine costs about $200 million
29
00:01:56,180 --> 00:01:59,280
Ejaaz:
to create and then to maintain even more.
30
00:01:59,420 --> 00:02:04,880
Ejaaz:
The company itself is worth $400 billion and they only have a couple of these machines.
31
00:02:05,060 --> 00:02:07,840
Ejaaz:
So if you do the math, if one of these machines get recreated,
32
00:02:08,100 --> 00:02:09,780
Ejaaz:
you've now taken over $200
33
00:02:09,990 --> 00:02:13,790
Ejaaz:
tens of billions of dollars worth of market cap and potentially even more if
34
00:02:13,790 --> 00:02:17,890
Ejaaz:
you can create AI chips that are of the same level as NVIDIA.
35
00:02:18,010 --> 00:02:19,850
Ejaaz:
And that's what China effectively has right now.
36
00:02:19,990 --> 00:02:23,270
Josh:
It's funny because you hear the $400 billion number and it doesn't even seem
37
00:02:23,270 --> 00:02:25,490
Josh:
that high for how existential this is.
38
00:02:25,790 --> 00:02:31,910
Josh:
Like truly, they are the total linchpin when it comes to creating any sort of electronic device.
39
00:02:32,230 --> 00:02:35,850
Josh:
And it goes, I wonder if that's part of the downstream reason why they haven't
40
00:02:35,850 --> 00:02:39,830
Josh:
been disrupted thus far, because the opportunity isn't in the trillions, but it's coming now.
41
00:02:40,010 --> 00:02:42,870
Josh:
And if it's not from China, it could possibly be coming from the US because
42
00:02:42,870 --> 00:02:45,910
Josh:
a lot of people are coming and trying to tackle this all at once.
43
00:02:46,070 --> 00:02:49,550
Josh:
So this is all amazing stuff. Ejaz, how were they actually able to pull this off?
44
00:02:50,150 --> 00:02:54,290
Ejaaz:
Well, this is the thing. No one really knows. And there's kind of like a gray
45
00:02:54,290 --> 00:02:58,530
Ejaaz:
area where we're like, maybe they stole the secret formula because Josh,
46
00:02:58,870 --> 00:03:03,350
Ejaaz:
this entire machine weighs 450,000 pounds.
47
00:03:03,850 --> 00:03:07,670
Ejaaz:
That is an incredibly heavy machine. And it is very, very complex.
48
00:03:07,770 --> 00:03:11,570
Ejaaz:
And there are tens of thousands of people that are responsible for different
49
00:03:11,570 --> 00:03:16,750
Ejaaz:
parts of this machine, the secret formula, which collectively makes up the makeup of this machine.
50
00:03:17,470 --> 00:03:21,570
Ejaaz:
China somehow have got their hands on it. So there are some rumors that are floating.
51
00:03:22,090 --> 00:03:26,350
Ejaaz:
One tweet here says, my sources on the ground says they stole the source,
52
00:03:26,490 --> 00:03:29,710
Ejaaz:
like they used a bunch of other versions in the past decade.
53
00:03:29,710 --> 00:03:32,810
Ejaaz:
And it goes on to explain how they've probably got moles.
54
00:03:33,170 --> 00:03:36,650
Ejaaz:
And yeah, I mean, like people that they've planted within this company throughout
55
00:03:36,650 --> 00:03:40,690
Ejaaz:
several years that have been able to take these secrets. It sounds very tinfoil hattie.
56
00:03:40,990 --> 00:03:43,830
Ejaaz:
But to kind of out and look at the wider picture.
57
00:03:44,570 --> 00:03:47,390
Ejaaz:
China, if true, has built an effective
58
00:03:47,390 --> 00:03:51,630
Ejaaz:
working prototype of extreme ultraviolet in less than five years.
59
00:03:51,790 --> 00:03:56,230
Ejaaz:
And he compares it to the American venture capital space who have been trying
60
00:03:56,230 --> 00:04:00,070
Ejaaz:
to crack the same problem for over a decade now, Josh, and no one's been able
61
00:04:00,070 --> 00:04:01,510
Ejaaz:
to crack that 100% monopoly.
62
00:04:01,750 --> 00:04:04,590
Ejaaz:
So the fact that we've finally made this breakthrough is awesome.
63
00:04:04,950 --> 00:04:10,510
Ejaaz:
But the fact that it's also a Chinese venture that's been able to do this is kind of bearish.
64
00:04:10,650 --> 00:04:14,090
Josh:
Yeah, well, I would say there is another competitor in the ring here.
65
00:04:14,270 --> 00:04:17,330
Josh:
It's not just China that's trying to take ASML's market.
66
00:04:17,550 --> 00:04:21,370
Josh:
It is also a company called Substrate, which recently raised a bunch of money.
67
00:04:21,570 --> 00:04:23,390
Josh:
They were kind of announcing what they're doing.
68
00:04:23,590 --> 00:04:26,250
Josh:
And their take on it is trying to reinvent.
69
00:04:26,470 --> 00:04:30,910
Josh:
If you think of these fabs as printing presses, they're trying to reinvent the printing press.
70
00:04:31,030 --> 00:04:34,950
Josh:
And their bet is that they are going to take an advanced x-ray lithography,
71
00:04:35,070 --> 00:04:37,630
Josh:
like we mentioned earlier, but turn it into particle accelerators.
72
00:04:37,670 --> 00:04:40,630
Josh:
This is really crazy, technically complicated thing.
73
00:04:40,810 --> 00:04:44,350
Josh:
But I do want everyone to understand that they're working on it too.
74
00:04:44,470 --> 00:04:48,810
Josh:
And it appears as if this monopoly is kind of being broken into two.
75
00:04:49,050 --> 00:04:53,310
Josh:
One, of course, is China. One is the United States. We each have a leading company
76
00:04:53,310 --> 00:04:56,930
Josh:
working on this technology to dismantle the singular monopoly.
77
00:04:57,150 --> 00:05:01,230
Josh:
So who is going to win that race? I'm not sure, but it certainly seems right
78
00:05:01,230 --> 00:05:05,970
Josh:
that you should be diversifying if we are so reliant on this singular,
79
00:05:06,870 --> 00:05:09,690
Josh:
company for every single chip that we make across the board.
80
00:05:09,870 --> 00:05:12,550
Josh:
Like you said earlier, NVIDIA is not the bottleneck.
81
00:05:13,110 --> 00:05:16,750
Josh:
The TSMC is not the bottleneck. It is this weird company in the middle of nowhere
82
00:05:16,750 --> 00:05:20,330
Josh:
that makes these chips. That is the actual bottleneck.
83
00:05:20,610 --> 00:05:24,750
Ejaaz:
It just blows my mind how dependent the entire stock market is, Josh.
84
00:05:24,990 --> 00:05:29,630
Ejaaz:
How your and I's investments are. The world is dependent on these two companies,
85
00:05:29,890 --> 00:05:31,890
Ejaaz:
or in this case, this one singular company.
86
00:05:31,890 --> 00:05:34,710
Ejaaz:
And just to highlight how important of an
87
00:05:34,710 --> 00:05:37,930
Ejaaz:
opportunity this is if a company or country
88
00:05:37,930 --> 00:05:40,870
Ejaaz:
is able to crack the secret formula you have
89
00:05:40,870 --> 00:05:43,690
Ejaaz:
so many other companies that are focused on this samsung in fact has been
90
00:05:43,690 --> 00:05:48,530
Ejaaz:
at this for over a decade with no luck they made some recent announcements this
91
00:05:48,530 --> 00:05:53,190
Ejaaz:
week where they're creating a new fab that is going to focus on building two
92
00:05:53,190 --> 00:05:58,590
Ejaaz:
nanometer cpus remember that's cpu not gpu so they're still about five years
93
00:05:58,590 --> 00:06:01,710
Ejaaz:
behind getting to the same level that this company, ASML, is.
94
00:06:01,830 --> 00:06:05,550
Ejaaz:
So if China has, in fact, cracked this, it would be a miracle.
95
00:06:05,850 --> 00:06:08,390
Ejaaz:
We still don't know how they've done it, but crazy to see.
96
00:06:09,210 --> 00:06:15,950
Ejaaz:
Moving on, Josh, I saw this tweet by Elon Musk this week, and I had no idea about it.
97
00:06:16,030 --> 00:06:18,410
Ejaaz:
And you said, we have to talk about this on the show. Have to.
98
00:06:18,670 --> 00:06:20,270
Ejaaz:
I love it. Walk me through it.
99
00:06:20,720 --> 00:06:25,780
Josh:
Okay, this is called a mass driver. And a mass driver is not even a new idea.
100
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,320
Josh:
This was proposed in the 1970s at MIT.
101
00:06:29,620 --> 00:06:32,460
Josh:
And one thing I found about sci-fi is that oftentimes, I mean,
102
00:06:32,500 --> 00:06:36,840
Josh:
it could be wrong, but when it's right, it's very right. It's just right on the wrong timescale.
103
00:06:36,980 --> 00:06:41,500
Josh:
It seems as if that scale and that time window is finally getting close to where we are now.
104
00:06:41,500 --> 00:06:44,340
Josh:
So on screen you're seeing a visual of this crazy thing called
105
00:06:44,340 --> 00:06:47,300
Josh:
a lunar mass driver it was so fascinating and he does
106
00:06:47,300 --> 00:06:50,060
Josh:
when you were first reading it you were like whoa this is this is real and i think that
107
00:06:50,060 --> 00:06:52,840
Josh:
was the reaction that i had too basically what
108
00:06:52,840 --> 00:06:56,400
Josh:
is it's a giant solar powered electromagnetic catapult
109
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:59,640
Josh:
on the moon so you can fling cargo into space without
110
00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,360
Josh:
rockets or fuel so if you imagine building this like
111
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,140
Josh:
really long track on the moon with superconductor coils you
112
00:07:05,140 --> 00:07:08,280
Josh:
load it with chunks of lunar material and then it uses electricity to
113
00:07:08,280 --> 00:07:11,340
Josh:
yeet them into space at 5300 hundred miles an
114
00:07:11,340 --> 00:07:14,940
Josh:
hour with no rocket engines no fuel it's fascinating
115
00:07:14,940 --> 00:07:17,600
Josh:
and why can we talk about this again all of
116
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,600
Josh:
the most interesting conversations that we're having recently are downstream of
117
00:07:20,600 --> 00:07:23,740
Josh:
the fact that starship has been able to get actual mass
118
00:07:23,740 --> 00:07:26,420
Josh:
to orbit for a low cost or the assumption is
119
00:07:26,420 --> 00:07:29,780
Josh:
that this will happen in the next year so the idea is that you can go put this
120
00:07:29,780 --> 00:07:33,460
Josh:
on the moon why the moon well because it has low gravity it has one-sixth the
121
00:07:33,460 --> 00:07:36,820
Josh:
gravity of earth so you need to spend a lot less energy to throw stuff off there's
122
00:07:36,820 --> 00:07:40,340
Josh:
no atmosphere there's a ton of sunlight for energy and naturally the question
123
00:07:40,340 --> 00:07:43,920
Josh:
I ask myself is, okay, well, why should I care about this? Why does it matter?
124
00:07:44,020 --> 00:07:48,500
Josh:
And the reality is the economics of making this a reality are pretty staggering.
125
00:07:49,150 --> 00:07:53,630
Ejaaz:
Yeah, I was looking into the math before we came on the show,
126
00:07:53,650 --> 00:08:00,130
Ejaaz:
and the Falcon 9, the old rockets from SpaceX, costs about $3,000 per kilogram
127
00:08:00,130 --> 00:08:02,410
Ejaaz:
to get mass into lower Earth.
128
00:08:02,990 --> 00:08:07,250
Ejaaz:
Starship targets $100 per kg, which is a massive, massive reduction.
129
00:08:07,550 --> 00:08:12,010
Ejaaz:
And so if you were to use a lunar mass driver powered by solar and running continuously
130
00:08:12,010 --> 00:08:18,130
Ejaaz:
with zero propellant, well, an early study in 1979 estimated that it would cost $1.
131
00:08:18,130 --> 00:08:23,570
Ejaaz:
So the point here is that the cost of bringing mass back and forth to Earth
132
00:08:23,570 --> 00:08:28,750
Ejaaz:
into low orbit space, it would come down to minimal, would come down to zero, which is just insane.
133
00:08:29,010 --> 00:08:32,470
Ejaaz:
So then the question becomes, well, what does that timeline look like?
134
00:08:32,570 --> 00:08:36,550
Ejaaz:
And the post goes on to describe that we're roughly going to target the mid
135
00:08:36,550 --> 00:08:39,030
Ejaaz:
2030s to have something like this functioning.
136
00:08:39,190 --> 00:08:43,490
Ejaaz:
So, Josh, this is something that's going to be pretty much realistic and achievable
137
00:08:43,490 --> 00:08:47,090
Ejaaz:
in our lifetimes and not far off when we're old men.
138
00:08:48,070 --> 00:08:51,870
Ejaaz:
Relatively when I was quite young, within like the decade, which is just insane to think about.
139
00:08:52,310 --> 00:08:55,630
Josh:
Yeah, we filmed this episode about SpaceX and their IPO last week,
140
00:08:55,630 --> 00:08:59,990
Josh:
and I would highly recommend watching it because the idea is that SpaceX going
141
00:08:59,990 --> 00:09:04,110
Josh:
public and getting the resources required to go and build an outer space really
142
00:09:04,110 --> 00:09:06,630
Josh:
changes the fabric of reality that we live in today.
143
00:09:06,930 --> 00:09:12,550
Josh:
Like these sci-fi concepts that have been ideated on for the last 60 years almost
144
00:09:12,550 --> 00:09:16,310
Josh:
are able to be put in reality from at least a first principles perspective,
145
00:09:16,310 --> 00:09:21,810
Josh:
where if you're able to get this amount of mass payload to orbit on the moon, ideally,
146
00:09:22,050 --> 00:09:25,670
Josh:
you can turn that into one of these mass drivers that then offsets the global
147
00:09:25,670 --> 00:09:29,670
Josh:
economy in a way that is the thesis for this universal high income,
148
00:09:29,670 --> 00:09:34,890
Josh:
where if you can get this abundance of resources back to Earth cost effectively and efficiently,
149
00:09:35,230 --> 00:09:38,210
Josh:
well, that really disrupts a lot of the financial systems we have today.
150
00:09:38,310 --> 00:09:43,110
Josh:
And it gives us this level of abundance that is almost inconceivable to someone
151
00:09:43,110 --> 00:09:45,070
Josh:
who doesn't read sci-fi on a regular basis.
152
00:09:45,270 --> 00:09:50,310
Josh:
So to me, this is exciting because one, the math checks out and it's really just a matter of
153
00:09:50,700 --> 00:09:54,740
Josh:
making the right set of decisions over the next decade or two to turn this into
154
00:09:54,740 --> 00:09:57,980
Josh:
a reality where we do have a moon base and then eventually a martian base and
155
00:09:57,980 --> 00:10:01,740
Josh:
we have ai supercomputers in space and this world of space is just starting
156
00:10:01,740 --> 00:10:06,320
Josh:
to be unlocked and it's going to unlock so many unbelievable ways that we can take it.
157
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:13,180
Ejaaz:
I i like your point on uh abundant energy being the key to unlocking future progress josh i was
158
00:10:13,180 --> 00:10:15,000
Josh:
Listening the only thing that matters yeah.
159
00:10:15,000 --> 00:10:20,020
Ejaaz:
I was listening to this interview with Demis Hesibis on the Google DeepMind podcast this morning.
160
00:10:20,380 --> 00:10:23,760
Ejaaz:
And one of his key takeaways was, or one of his learnings rather,
161
00:10:23,980 --> 00:10:27,100
Josh:
Was he plays AI models like a game.
162
00:10:27,680 --> 00:10:32,880
Ejaaz:
And this game is to solve certain sub-routes is what they describe, or what he describes.
163
00:10:33,100 --> 00:10:35,920
Ejaaz:
And he describes a sub-route as something like solving AlphaGo.
164
00:10:36,140 --> 00:10:39,580
Ejaaz:
And if he solves that game, then the AI model is able to solve other games.
165
00:10:39,780 --> 00:10:44,140
Ejaaz:
And he said, he was then asked, what's the most important sub-root to solve
166
00:10:44,140 --> 00:10:47,460
Ejaaz:
right now, Demis? And he answers with one word, energy.
167
00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:53,180
Ejaaz:
If you can create abundant energy, you can create an infinite type of progress and world.
168
00:10:53,380 --> 00:10:58,580
Ejaaz:
And on the topic of Google and on the topic of energy,
169
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:00,340
Josh:
We have an update.
170
00:11:00,860 --> 00:11:04,260
Ejaaz:
Yeah, bring it back to Earth. There we go. All the puns. We have some new news
171
00:11:04,260 --> 00:11:06,140
Ejaaz:
from a Google-owned company.
172
00:11:06,660 --> 00:11:11,240
Ejaaz:
Waymo, the self-driving car company is in discussions to raise more than $15
173
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:16,480
Ejaaz:
billion at a valuation near $100 billion, which seems pretty cheap to me,
174
00:11:16,620 --> 00:11:18,200
Ejaaz:
but we'll get into that in a second.
175
00:11:18,580 --> 00:11:26,200
Ejaaz:
But the most important part is being led in a round by its parent company, Alphabet, aka Google.
176
00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:30,940
Ejaaz:
I don't know what to think about this because I thought Google was loaded,
177
00:11:31,340 --> 00:11:35,940
Josh:
Josh. You would think so, right? That a company with hundreds of billions on their balance sheet,
178
00:11:36,410 --> 00:11:40,270
Josh:
who owns the entirety of the company would want to just double down on their
179
00:11:40,270 --> 00:11:41,990
Josh:
investment, but they have not.
180
00:11:42,270 --> 00:11:44,530
Josh:
They are looking to raise another $15 billion.
181
00:11:45,910 --> 00:11:49,190
Josh:
That signals to me perhaps a lack of confidence.
182
00:11:49,370 --> 00:11:51,490
Josh:
Ejaz, do you have a different take? Because to me, I'm like,
183
00:11:51,570 --> 00:11:55,330
Josh:
well, we just recorded an episode about this. Waymo is the clear loser here.
184
00:11:55,810 --> 00:11:58,830
Josh:
Does Google recognize that and are they hedging their bet? Or is there something
185
00:11:58,830 --> 00:11:59,870
Josh:
else going on behind the scenes?
186
00:11:59,870 --> 00:12:07,430
Ejaaz:
Okay, so I'm trying to put my head into the head of Waymo's product division and his pitch deck.
187
00:12:07,570 --> 00:12:10,210
Ejaaz:
What's he saying to justify a $15 billion raise?
188
00:12:10,570 --> 00:12:14,450
Ejaaz:
Well, I'm guessing he's going to say, let's spend $10 billion of these dollars
189
00:12:14,450 --> 00:12:18,070
Ejaaz:
to purchase more Waymo cars so we can expand our network.
190
00:12:18,350 --> 00:12:25,510
Ejaaz:
The issue with that is each Waymo car costs $150,000 versus a Tesla CyberCab,
191
00:12:25,510 --> 00:12:29,110
Ejaaz:
which will cost $30,000, maybe even less, because everyone else that buys a
192
00:12:29,110 --> 00:12:31,530
Ejaaz:
Tesla can effectively add to the RoboTaxi network.
193
00:12:31,570 --> 00:12:34,070
Ejaaz:
So I don't see a justification for the $10 billion.
194
00:12:34,570 --> 00:12:39,010
Ejaaz:
Now, if I put my tinfoil hat on, Josh, I'm thinking the only reason why they're
195
00:12:39,010 --> 00:12:42,130
Ejaaz:
taking external capital is to one, de-risk the venture itself,
196
00:12:42,390 --> 00:12:46,370
Ejaaz:
and two, suck the capital out of competitors.
197
00:12:46,770 --> 00:12:49,230
Ejaaz:
So instead of the venture capital money going to competitors,
198
00:12:49,690 --> 00:12:53,050
Ejaaz:
it would go to Waymo to fund their expansion.
199
00:12:53,290 --> 00:12:55,890
Ejaaz:
I don't really see how this is going to be sustained.
200
00:12:56,210 --> 00:13:00,390
Ejaaz:
And, you know, listen, it's a great 2X for anyone that got involved in the 2024
201
00:13:00,390 --> 00:13:03,730
Ejaaz:
round, but I'm not really kind of impressed by it, I guess.
202
00:13:04,270 --> 00:13:07,710
Josh:
Boring. I mean, Waymo's got a long way to go if they want to compete with Tesla.
203
00:13:07,910 --> 00:13:10,910
Josh:
And that's just the harsh reality of it, where there will still be a business,
204
00:13:11,050 --> 00:13:11,970
Josh:
but is it capable of growing?
205
00:13:12,380 --> 00:13:15,360
Josh:
I do not know. But that is not the only big fundraise we have this week.
206
00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:19,820
Josh:
We also had news in our circular economy section of the show.
207
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,580
Ejaaz:
It's circling. It is circling like a bunch of vultures.
208
00:13:23,780 --> 00:13:28,240
Josh:
Vultures ready to feast on an infinitely expanding bubble that has grown by
209
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:32,920
Josh:
another $10 billion this week as it relates to OpenAI and Amazon.
210
00:13:33,520 --> 00:13:37,340
Josh:
Ejaz, you have been very bullish on Amazon. So please explain the bull case
211
00:13:37,340 --> 00:13:41,120
Josh:
for this deal, at least. Why are they making this deal?
212
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:45,940
Ejaaz:
I am going to give you the bull case and then I'm going to give you the slight bear case. Okay.
213
00:13:46,220 --> 00:13:53,620
Ejaaz:
So the bull case here is OpenAI needs a load of compute to train their AI models
214
00:13:53,620 --> 00:13:56,760
Ejaaz:
to compete with the likes of Google Anthropic, which by the way,
215
00:13:56,900 --> 00:13:58,440
Ejaaz:
they are still losing to.
216
00:13:58,660 --> 00:14:02,600
Ejaaz:
No surprises there. If you were to guess or predict in January who would win,
217
00:14:02,700 --> 00:14:05,140
Ejaaz:
you would say OpenAI and now everyone is shocked.
218
00:14:05,780 --> 00:14:10,120
Ejaaz:
So one way to achieve that is, okay, what if I told you this,
219
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:15,840
Ejaaz:
Josh? What if I told you that you could get the same frontier level intelligence for 50% off?
220
00:14:16,780 --> 00:14:18,120
Ejaaz:
Would you take it or would you leave it?
221
00:14:18,340 --> 00:14:19,600
Josh:
I'm taking that in a heartbeat.
222
00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:24,460
Ejaaz:
Okay, that is effectively what Trinium 3 chips, Amazon's latest AI chips,
223
00:14:24,700 --> 00:14:29,920
Ejaaz:
can afford you if you were to kind of enable that via Amazon. But there's an issue.
224
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:34,640
Ejaaz:
OpenAI is losing $12 billion per year now. It's probably going to ramp up even more next year.
225
00:14:34,780 --> 00:14:38,840
Ejaaz:
And so they need to figure out a creative way to get their hands on their chips
226
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:40,360
Ejaaz:
without spending the necessary money.
227
00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:46,040
Ejaaz:
Insert this idea. Amazon invests $10 billion in OpenAI, which they're probably
228
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:48,840
Ejaaz:
going to spend that money on Trinium 3 chips.
229
00:14:49,020 --> 00:14:54,240
Ejaaz:
So this, which brings me to my bad case, the circular economy of these deals is insane.
230
00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:56,980
Ejaaz:
Why? Because it's going to boost their valuations even more.
231
00:14:57,060 --> 00:15:00,680
Ejaaz:
Josh, I don't know if you saw, but rumors broke this morning that OpenAI is
232
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,620
Ejaaz:
going to get valued at $800 billion and they're raising another $100 billion.
233
00:15:03,900 --> 00:15:06,080
Ejaaz:
So I'm just like, what is going on here?
234
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:10,340
Josh:
Everyone wants in. And the merry-go-round continues to spin.
235
00:15:10,460 --> 00:15:14,760
Josh:
The musical chairs continue to go around and we will see where everybody stops.
236
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:18,380
Ejaaz:
Yes. Cue Michael Burry meme. Cue Michael Burry meme.
237
00:15:18,380 --> 00:15:22,780
Josh:
For those not watching, it's Michael Burry, and it's a quote with the Amazon
238
00:15:22,780 --> 00:15:25,260
Josh:
investment would help OpenAI afford commitments,
239
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:30,400
Josh:
including from Amazon Web Services, which is ironic because Amazon Web Services
240
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:33,760
Josh:
is just GPUs and cloud servers and more compute.
241
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:38,540
Josh:
But Ejaz, you did mention a 50 percent improvement in your model.
242
00:15:38,540 --> 00:15:42,240
Josh:
And for users of Google, whether you're a builder or a consumer,
243
00:15:42,540 --> 00:15:49,380
Josh:
your model has just gotten 40% better and 50% cheaper overnight with Gemini 3 Flash.
244
00:15:49,700 --> 00:15:54,440
Josh:
The best model in the world just got better. This one appears to be the best
245
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:58,120
Josh:
pound for pound model on Earth by a fairly large margin. And you have pulled
246
00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:03,380
Josh:
up on screen the ARK AGI prize chart, which I love to look at because it's just clear.
247
00:16:03,380 --> 00:16:04,340
Ejaaz:
It's a favorite chart, everyone.
248
00:16:04,580 --> 00:16:08,020
Josh:
It's such a good chart because it shows like the Pareto frontier.
249
00:16:08,020 --> 00:16:11,940
Josh:
And we talked about this previously where there is these trade-offs between
250
00:16:11,940 --> 00:16:13,580
Josh:
cost and quality per token.
251
00:16:14,180 --> 00:16:18,540
Josh:
And what you're seeing with that green line that goes straight up is that Gemini
252
00:16:18,540 --> 00:16:22,420
Josh:
3 Flash is really on the most vertical trajectory out of any of these.
253
00:16:22,540 --> 00:16:29,860
Josh:
So you'll see it falls right in line with GPT 5.2 high, but it costs less than,
254
00:16:29,860 --> 00:16:33,840
Josh:
what is that, a full order of magnitude less per token?
255
00:16:34,140 --> 00:16:36,460
Ejaaz:
Yes, it does. It's crazy cheap.
256
00:16:36,660 --> 00:16:37,500
Josh:
It's crazy. Yeah.
257
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:44,160
Ejaaz:
I think the cool story about all of this, Josh, is the process of distillation,
258
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:48,080
Ejaaz:
which is, okay, you spend tens of billions of dollars to train a frontier model.
259
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,740
Ejaaz:
And then what you can do is you can distill all the intelligent components of
260
00:16:51,740 --> 00:16:56,280
Ejaaz:
that model into a cheaper, more, like less costly model, and then scale that
261
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:59,220
Ejaaz:
out to whatever product that you have. And who has the most product distribution?
262
00:16:59,740 --> 00:17:03,980
Ejaaz:
Google does. So if you can surface that to a bunch of different people,
263
00:17:03,980 --> 00:17:06,580
Ejaaz:
let's say through, what's their number one product?
264
00:17:07,260 --> 00:17:12,120
Ejaaz:
I'm racking my brain. Oh, of course, it's Google search with 5 billion users.
265
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:16,520
Ejaaz:
That would be an attractive proposition.
266
00:17:16,820 --> 00:17:21,640
Ejaaz:
And guess what? With this update or a story that kind of went under the waves,
267
00:17:21,760 --> 00:17:25,840
Ejaaz:
what we're going to highlight here is this domain called google.ai,
268
00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:30,760
Ejaaz:
which now effectively embeds Gemini 3 Flash
269
00:17:31,420 --> 00:17:35,080
Ejaaz:
into Google search. Now, there's a few steps involved here.
270
00:17:35,260 --> 00:17:39,940
Ejaaz:
But the simple fact that you can now go to Google search accessible to 5 billion
271
00:17:39,940 --> 00:17:45,100
Ejaaz:
different users and get access to AI mode with frontier level intelligence at
272
00:17:45,100 --> 00:17:49,740
Ejaaz:
a fraction of the cost, I just don't see how Google loses this at all.
273
00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,540
Ejaaz:
They have the moat, they have the distribution. We've said this multiple times
274
00:17:52,540 --> 00:17:55,840
Ejaaz:
before. We've done a Google bull case episode. You definitely go check that out.
275
00:17:56,180 --> 00:18:00,000
Ejaaz:
But now they've combined the frontier model with this josh like this is like
276
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:02,500
Ejaaz:
they're like cannibalizing themselves in a way
277
00:18:02,500 --> 00:18:05,320
Josh:
Yeah we're starting to get the answer to what do you do in
278
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:08,440
Josh:
the case of the founder's dilemma where what happens when innovation eats
279
00:18:08,440 --> 00:18:12,620
Josh:
your core product and that's what's happening and google has decided to double
280
00:18:12,620 --> 00:18:17,200
Josh:
down and fully lean into it and we are going to see how that plays out i mean
281
00:18:17,200 --> 00:18:21,800
Josh:
this is google.ai this is not google.com so their core search product is still
282
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:26,100
Josh:
intact but i imagine and this is a transitionary period where they are testing,
283
00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:29,900
Josh:
there is currently the AI mode button in Google.com's homepage.
284
00:18:30,260 --> 00:18:34,900
Josh:
And it's only a matter of time until they're able to, until they commit to fully switching over.
285
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:39,100
Josh:
And then you have to ask the question, well, how are they going to support this business?
286
00:18:39,160 --> 00:18:44,240
Josh:
And is it just going to be an effort to bleed out the results from all these other companies?
287
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:46,760
Josh:
Because OpenAI needs to make revenue.
288
00:18:46,940 --> 00:18:49,540
Josh:
They must make a ton of money. And in order to do that, they're going to need
289
00:18:49,540 --> 00:18:53,020
Josh:
to start implementing advertising and sponsorships into their products.
290
00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:56,040
Josh:
Google has a very different business model. They are a behemoth.
291
00:18:56,120 --> 00:18:59,760
Josh:
They have a tremendous amount of cash on the balance sheet that they can use
292
00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:03,980
Josh:
to subsidize all of this compute and all of these AI needs that people need.
293
00:19:04,120 --> 00:19:07,080
Josh:
So they have TPUs that are hyper-efficient. They have the best,
294
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:08,540
Josh:
most efficient model in the world.
295
00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:13,920
Josh:
And they have no need to monetize urgently because they have such a huge cash balance sheet.
296
00:19:14,120 --> 00:19:17,960
Josh:
So OpenAI and other companies that need to compete on this run are going to
297
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:21,040
Josh:
start to have to make some trade-offs here. Yeah.
298
00:19:21,250 --> 00:19:28,950
Ejaaz:
You might be thinking as well, why doesn't Google just switch search completely to AI if it's so smart?
299
00:19:29,230 --> 00:19:34,350
Ejaaz:
And the simple answer is they haven't been able to embed advertising and search
300
00:19:34,350 --> 00:19:36,430
Ejaaz:
rankings into the model effectively yet.
301
00:19:36,650 --> 00:19:39,690
Ejaaz:
So the same kind of experience where you see sponsored posts at the top of your
302
00:19:39,690 --> 00:19:43,150
Ejaaz:
Google search results page, you can't quite do effectively with AI models.
303
00:19:43,330 --> 00:19:44,410
Ejaaz:
It's a completely different beast.
304
00:19:44,690 --> 00:19:48,730
Ejaaz:
And both companies, Google and OpenAI, will need to figure this out eventually.
305
00:19:48,930 --> 00:19:53,850
Ejaaz:
I think all roads lead to ads. But the question is, at what time does that make sense?
306
00:19:54,270 --> 00:19:58,750
Ejaaz:
If Google can hold out to your point and OpenAI kind of comes in first,
307
00:19:58,970 --> 00:20:03,110
Ejaaz:
Google wins the moat because people just want to use an ad-free product. It is crazy.
308
00:20:03,470 --> 00:20:06,490
Ejaaz:
But Josh, on the topic of OpenAI, did you see this news?
309
00:20:07,190 --> 00:20:08,970
Ejaaz:
They've introduced...
310
00:20:09,170 --> 00:20:17,550
Ejaaz:
Gpt chat gpt image 1.5 which is their answer to google's nano banana pro
311
00:20:17,550 --> 00:20:20,650
Josh:
And as everybody knows we myself i'll
312
00:20:20,650 --> 00:20:23,990
Josh:
speak for myself absolutely adore nano banana pro it is one of my favorite models
313
00:20:23,990 --> 00:20:27,670
Josh:
of the year it is an excellent image generator and as i was looking through
314
00:20:27,670 --> 00:20:31,930
Josh:
this announcement i was hopeful that this would be a better replacement it's
315
00:20:31,930 --> 00:20:35,670
Josh:
built into the chat gpt app that we know and love and i think the reality of
316
00:20:35,670 --> 00:20:40,230
Josh:
it is it is just not that good i mean in the video So if you scroll down just a little bit.
317
00:20:40,250 --> 00:20:41,410
Ejaaz:
Or we start right here
318
00:20:41,410 --> 00:20:46,090
Josh:
With this example. So for those who are watching, close your eyes.
319
00:20:46,250 --> 00:20:49,910
Josh:
If you're not, what we're looking at on screen, and I don't even know if you
320
00:20:49,910 --> 00:20:51,310
Josh:
should scroll down any further than this.
321
00:20:51,610 --> 00:20:53,810
Ejaaz:
Is a post from Mr.
322
00:20:53,970 --> 00:20:58,510
Josh:
Sam Altman himself, shirtless as a firefighter in front of a Christmas tree.
323
00:20:58,770 --> 00:21:00,910
Josh:
And if you scroll down even further, it's actually a holiday calendar.
324
00:21:01,130 --> 00:21:07,750
Josh:
And it's an example to reflect the quality, I guess, of the new 1.5 image model. It's good.
325
00:21:08,090 --> 00:21:10,910
Josh:
It's not great it would appear as if nano banana is better after
326
00:21:10,910 --> 00:21:13,890
Josh:
going through a bunch of examples nano banana pro still is good but what's
327
00:21:13,890 --> 00:21:17,950
Josh:
cool about this is if you don't use google if you're not familiar with their
328
00:21:17,950 --> 00:21:23,230
Josh:
uh work flow if you don't use gemini if you only use chat gpt you have a pretty
329
00:21:23,230 --> 00:21:25,870
Josh:
good imaging model because this is built right into the app and what you'll
330
00:21:25,870 --> 00:21:29,270
Josh:
notice it you guys is it's really good at faces so we're seeing on screen a
331
00:21:29,270 --> 00:21:32,570
Josh:
picture of sam and ilia kind of a little sad at a party uh,
332
00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:37,000
Josh:
it's pretty good it shows faces in a world where they didn't show faces before
333
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:42,080
Josh:
and they're fairly accurate so it's an attempt it is by no means a smackdown
334
00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:46,320
Josh:
on the king nano banana pro but hey it's pretty cool and if you use chat gpt
335
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,100
Josh:
your image gen model just got much better listen.
336
00:21:49,100 --> 00:21:53,000
Ejaaz:
Call me a google bowl but like i don't think it's that impressive like we're
337
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:59,720
Ejaaz:
looking at 1.5 gpt 1.5 on the left it just looks so much grainier like like
338
00:21:59,720 --> 00:22:03,180
Ejaaz:
the example on the ride by nano banana looks way more accurate.
339
00:22:03,360 --> 00:22:06,360
Ejaaz:
Like you can see the physical expressions on Ilya's face as well.
340
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:09,700
Ejaaz:
It looks more like Ilya as this post claims.
341
00:22:10,260 --> 00:22:15,680
Ejaaz:
I don't know if this is a zinger. And what's important about this is Sam initiated
342
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:18,100
Ejaaz:
Code Red a week and a half ago.
343
00:22:18,240 --> 00:22:22,220
Ejaaz:
And since then, he's done something really impressive, which is divert all resources
344
00:22:22,220 --> 00:22:25,260
Ejaaz:
towards number one, creating the best model, and number two,
345
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:26,600
Ejaaz:
creating the best image model.
346
00:22:26,820 --> 00:22:29,960
Ejaaz:
Now, he succeeded on number one, releasing GPT 5.2
347
00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:33,860
Ejaaz:
last week which broke all frontier benchmarks again surprise surprise um but
348
00:22:33,860 --> 00:22:38,560
Ejaaz:
this image model he's kind of flopped so i i don't know if we've reached a point
349
00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:42,420
Ejaaz:
where open ai still has the edge that they that they uh once had at the start
350
00:22:42,420 --> 00:22:46,440
Ejaaz:
of this year um i i don't know it still leaves me uncomfortable i don't believe
351
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:49,460
Ejaaz:
that open ai has kind of nailed it just yet yeah
352
00:22:49,460 --> 00:22:52,820
Josh:
They haven't but if you are again if you're a user go try it out it's better
353
00:22:52,820 --> 00:22:56,180
Josh:
than it was before and if you're being too stubborn to go use gemini well this
354
00:22:56,180 --> 00:22:59,960
Josh:
is the best image model on the block for you uh now i guess we can head over
355
00:22:59,960 --> 00:23:04,060
Josh:
to a little more frontier science-y stuff.
356
00:23:04,260 --> 00:23:07,440
Ejaaz:
Josh, how am I going to live forever?
357
00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:09,260
Josh:
Okay, perhaps...
358
00:23:09,470 --> 00:23:12,950
Josh:
I cannot tell you the answer to you living forever, but I can give you an answer
359
00:23:12,950 --> 00:23:15,430
Josh:
to your organs surviving longer if
360
00:23:15,430 --> 00:23:19,030
Josh:
they ever leave your body for whatever circumstances that might require.
361
00:23:19,370 --> 00:23:22,590
Josh:
There is a brain-computer interface startup called Science Corporation,
362
00:23:22,810 --> 00:23:27,670
Josh:
which we love, founded by Max Hodak, who is the former Neuralink co-founder and president.
363
00:23:27,810 --> 00:23:31,250
Josh:
And they decided this week that they were going to announce they're moving into
364
00:23:31,250 --> 00:23:33,390
Josh:
organ preservation and life support tech.
365
00:23:33,390 --> 00:23:37,290
Josh:
Basically, it's like the hardcore biomedical engineering mindset used for brain
366
00:23:37,290 --> 00:23:41,050
Josh:
implants is now being pointed at a different problem, which is keeping organs
367
00:23:41,050 --> 00:23:43,030
Josh:
alive outside of the body for way longer.
368
00:23:43,210 --> 00:23:46,070
Josh:
And I had to learn a lot before talking about this because right now,
369
00:23:46,230 --> 00:23:50,230
Josh:
I didn't realize that organ transplants are in a pretty brutal race against the clock.
370
00:23:50,790 --> 00:23:55,010
Josh:
Normally, they last like a day, sometimes less if you have lungs or kidneys.
371
00:23:55,170 --> 00:23:58,830
Josh:
It's very expensive to transfer these from place to place. A lot of time it
372
00:23:58,830 --> 00:24:03,550
Josh:
was done via like private jet or really like whatever fastest way you can get
373
00:24:03,550 --> 00:24:06,750
Josh:
it from one place to another because the person receiving it is normally in
374
00:24:06,750 --> 00:24:08,390
Josh:
very bad shape and the person giving it,
375
00:24:08,790 --> 00:24:11,730
Josh:
the organs are just not capable of living that long outside of it.
376
00:24:11,790 --> 00:24:16,470
Josh:
So what they shared today is this breakthrough in how they're able to use this
377
00:24:16,470 --> 00:24:20,390
Josh:
fancy new device to actually preserve organs for longer to make them last for
378
00:24:20,390 --> 00:24:23,790
Josh:
days and hopefully soon weeks instead of just hours.
379
00:24:23,790 --> 00:24:26,830
Josh:
And i found it to be really fascinating just on the the
380
00:24:26,830 --> 00:24:30,210
Josh:
scientific frontier front because again they're using ai in
381
00:24:30,210 --> 00:24:35,550
Josh:
a industry that has not really used ai very much in the past to create these
382
00:24:35,550 --> 00:24:38,950
Josh:
really cool new contraptions and you could kind of see an idea of what the photo
383
00:24:38,950 --> 00:24:43,090
Josh:
looks like in this post here that can actually help save people's lives and
384
00:24:43,090 --> 00:24:47,110
Josh:
make a big difference i mean traditionally it cost 250 000 for a machine that
385
00:24:47,110 --> 00:24:49,410
Josh:
does this plus tens of thousands of dollars per use.
386
00:24:49,630 --> 00:24:53,170
Josh:
And what they're planning to do is get that cost down to $10,000 and even less.
387
00:24:53,430 --> 00:24:56,970
Josh:
And I think it's just a really fascinating exploration into what's possible
388
00:24:56,970 --> 00:25:00,630
Josh:
in the world of science now that we're applying AI to a lot of these difficult problems.
389
00:25:01,140 --> 00:25:05,660
Ejaaz:
Josh, to give you a kind of crazy example to demonstrate how important this
390
00:25:05,660 --> 00:25:10,180
Ejaaz:
thing is, in a past life, I studied biology at university.
391
00:25:10,380 --> 00:25:11,600
Josh:
That's right. You're a pro on this.
392
00:25:11,980 --> 00:25:19,520
Ejaaz:
Well, I had a crazy opportunity to perform heart transplants between murine mice.
393
00:25:19,660 --> 00:25:22,760
Ejaaz:
So these are like test lab mice. It was a pretty crazy opportunity.
394
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:27,000
Ejaaz:
I signed up for it, somehow got approved because I was studying biology at the time.
395
00:25:27,100 --> 00:25:31,580
Ejaaz:
I love genetics and specifically regeneration of cells. So I qualified.
396
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:39,840
Ejaaz:
And the TLDR is I performed four of these things and it failed 75% of the time.
397
00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:45,540
Ejaaz:
The craziest part, the mouse I was transplanting the heart into was right next to me.
398
00:25:46,170 --> 00:25:49,810
Ejaaz:
It was literally five inches away. And the fact that you had that failure rate
399
00:25:49,810 --> 00:25:55,250
Ejaaz:
just goes to show you how crazily complex it is to keep these organs alive and
400
00:25:55,250 --> 00:25:57,630
Ejaaz:
sustainable. Just a fun anecdote.
401
00:25:57,810 --> 00:25:59,830
Josh:
It's really challenging. If you scroll down a little bit, we could kind of see
402
00:25:59,830 --> 00:26:01,850
Josh:
what the device looks like in full.
403
00:26:02,450 --> 00:26:06,770
Josh:
It's interesting. The thesis behind this was that, like, why can't you ship
404
00:26:06,770 --> 00:26:09,090
Josh:
organs long distance like luggage would be?
405
00:26:09,390 --> 00:26:11,790
Josh:
And what they wanted to do is create this backpack size system.
406
00:26:11,990 --> 00:26:16,090
Josh:
So their prototype that we see on screen, It has integrated sensors for oxygenation
407
00:26:16,090 --> 00:26:17,430
Josh:
and flow pressure or temperature.
408
00:26:17,850 --> 00:26:22,690
Josh:
And it's this closed loop system that automatically adjusts depending on its outside environment.
409
00:26:23,070 --> 00:26:26,510
Josh:
And it's really cool because traditionally it required something much larger
410
00:26:26,510 --> 00:26:28,470
Josh:
than this. That was much more expensive. That was single use.
411
00:26:28,570 --> 00:26:29,970
Josh:
That didn't allow these to survive for much longer.
412
00:26:30,110 --> 00:26:33,250
Josh:
So just an interesting thing worth checking out. We'll add a link to it in the
413
00:26:33,250 --> 00:26:34,330
Josh:
description if you want to read more.
414
00:26:34,650 --> 00:26:37,790
Josh:
Just something worth paying attention to that health and sciences,
415
00:26:38,170 --> 00:26:40,550
Josh:
thanks to AI, are becoming a lot more exciting.
416
00:26:40,550 --> 00:26:45,970
Ejaaz:
It has been a crazy week for science in general, or rather sci-fi.
417
00:26:46,170 --> 00:26:48,770
Ejaaz:
Sci-fi has had a big win this week.
418
00:26:49,150 --> 00:26:52,610
Ejaaz:
Yeah, yeah. We've got the mass drivers. Elon's launching satellites to train
419
00:26:52,610 --> 00:26:54,630
Ejaaz:
AIs. We're harnessing the energy of the sun.
420
00:26:54,790 --> 00:26:58,550
Ejaaz:
We have got this crazy device that can extend the lifespan of organs.
421
00:26:58,790 --> 00:27:03,410
Ejaaz:
And on top of it all, down on Earth, we have one singular company that has been
422
00:27:03,410 --> 00:27:05,910
Ejaaz:
discovered, which is upholding the entire world right now.
423
00:27:06,540 --> 00:27:11,660
Ejaaz:
Pretty pretty insane um that is the end of another roundup on the limit another
424
00:27:11,660 --> 00:27:15,260
Ejaaz:
big week another another huge week huge week we have some
425
00:27:15,260 --> 00:27:16,140
Josh:
Good weeks coming up too.
426
00:27:16,140 --> 00:27:18,960
Ejaaz:
We have some great weeks coming up uh as is
427
00:27:18,960 --> 00:27:21,580
Ejaaz:
normal uh of the end of the year we've we've got to
428
00:27:21,580 --> 00:27:24,880
Ejaaz:
do some reflection josh you and i've been doing a bit of reflection recently
429
00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:27,680
