He remains bullish on Nvidia and the broader AI trade, predicting that agentic AI, recursive self-improvement, and growing enterprise adoption will drive substantial investment and revenue growth. (01:06:32) - Kansas Town Splits Over Nuclear Reactor (01:10:58) - Ben Zweig, a labor economist and founder of workforce data company Revelio Labs, discusses how AI is reshaping hiring, employment, and workplace tasks.

(01:29:22) - Aakash Thumaty, founder and CEO of Takeoff, discusses the company’s rapid growth from near-zero to almost eight figures in revenue and its acquisition by Sierra. He explains Takeoff’s autonomous, revenue-generating AI agents, outcome-based pricing model, deep customer integrations, and how its technology is evolving into Sierra’s new Horizon product.
