NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang discusses the state of AI as we begin 2026, covering rapid improvements in reasoning, the profitability of inference, why AI will increase productivity without taking jobs, the future of robotics, the importance of open source, and which sectors are poised for their 'ChatGPT moment'.
Silicon Valley's historical alliance with US defense fractured over 15 years of hostility, but is now being rebuilt under the "American Dynamism" thesis, driven by the geopolitical realities of Ukraine and competition with China. This shift prioritizes building in the physical world—defense, energy, manufacturing—by leveraging software, AI, and autonomy to innovate faster than legacy, five-year-plan-based incumbents and win by doubling down on America's chaotic creativity.
A recap of key conversations from the No Priors podcast in 2025, featuring insights from leaders at OpenAI, Harvey, and the Center for AI Safety on topics ranging from reasoning models and spatial intelligence to the geopolitical risks of superintelligence and the human impact of AI in healthcare.
A summary of the discussion with Dan Wang, author of "Breakneck", comparing the US and China through the lens of engineering versus legal mindsets. The conversation explores differences in infrastructure, industrial policy, manufacturing scale, and foreign policy, arguing for a nuanced view of a long-term competition rather than a short-term race.
Jacob Helberg, Under Secretary of State designate, discusses how AI will act as a productivity engine to reindustrialize America, the geopolitical race for AI dominance in the "superintelligence century," and the critical need for nuclear energy to power this transformation.
A deep dive into the AI hardware landscape, exploring NVIDIA's dominance, the challenges for competitors like custom silicon and startups, and the critical infrastructure bottlenecks of power and data centers that define the next phase of the AI race.
