The Week: AI, GLP-1s, and Scott's Iran War Reversal

We're back with another episode of The Week, a new weekly show from Prof G Media, hosted by George Hahn. Every Friday, we'll break down the biggest stories shaping business, technology, politics, and culture — and connect the dots across the conversations happening throughout the Prof G universe. This week, George explores a question showing up everywhere from Silicon Valley to Hollywood: what happens when the promise of a technology collides with the reality of its costs? We discuss growing concerns about AI's return on investment, why Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos believes Hollywood's fears may be overblown, and why Eli Lilly CEO David Ricks thinks GLP-1 drugs could prove even more transformative than artificial intelligence. Plus, Scott revisits his early support for military action in Iran and reflects on how his thinking has changed as the war enters its fourth month. We’d love your feedback as we build this show.
