With Roku surging 16% in five days and Spotify down 4%, the hosts examine what the market is telling us about the future of content findability. They break down Netflix's new voice search for movie descriptions, Spotify's song-recognition feature that lets you hum a tune, and the underlying AI that powers natural-language queries. Plus, a look at how these audio-first interfaces could reduce churn and increase time spent on platform. The hosts also touch on why Amazon's reported concerns about Anthropic models matter for streaming AI.
