The Constant: Swimming in the Deep Blue of Business, Technology and Culture

Stanford alumni and industry leaders Brad Davidson, Andrey Kunov, German Dziebel and Kapa Lenkov discuss progress in traffic control technologies, the use of AI in law enforcement and prevention, the new approaches to solving "cold cases" using DNA and genealogical databases, the de-extinction of the sire wolf and the work that Colossal Biosciences is doing to create an artificial womb.

Dr. German Dziebel hosted Edward and Anna Blinov, co-founders of Bright App Technologies (BAT), a San Francisco startup offering an experiential, self-supervising AI agent that adapts to the world through perception, goal-setting and memory. After grounding the conversation in the growing post-LLM trend in AI research (as represented by Professor and Chief AI Scientist at Meta, Yann Le Cun) and the current understanding of the way the human brain works (through the work of Jeff Hawkins), The Constant's crew reviewed BAT's new cognitive and engineering architecture for Experiential AI that precedes, co-exists and complement LLMs and is designed to help humans adapt to our uncertain, precarious and ever changing world.

In the 6th episode of The Constant, we dive into the essence of Silicon Valley, exploring the key elements that make it a hub of innovation and success. Join hosts German Dziebel, Juan Napoli, and special guest Victoria Mensch as they discuss the importance of risk tolerance, the bias toward action, and the relentless drive for innovation. Discover how these principles have shaped Silicon Valley's unique ecosystem and learn how they can be applied to foster growth and creativity in other regions. Tune in for an insightful conversation that uncovers the secrets behind Silicon Valley's enduring influence.
