Why This Investor Says the AI Boom Isn’t the Next Dot-Com Crash

The artificial intelligence boom has sparked one of the costliest building sprees in history. By 2028, investment in chips, servers and data centers could hit nearly $3 trillion, according to Morgan Stanley. To help fund the build-out, tech companies are taking on huge amounts of debt, raising concerns of a possible bubble. On the latest episode of the Bold Names podcast, Martin Casado, a general partner at Andreessen Horowitz, who leads the firm’s $1.25 billion infrastructure practice, speaks to WSJ’s Christopher Mims and Tim Higgins, about whether the industry’s biggest bet in decades will deliver returns. Casado explains why he is optimistic about AI and how this moment compares to the internet buildout of the 1990s.

The Google Exec Reinventing Search in the AI Era

Every day, billions of searches flow through Google, making it not just the world’s most popular search engine, but one of history’s most valuable products. Yet for the first time in nearly 30 years, the company’s dominance is under threat. Generative artificial intelligence tools like Open AI’s ChatGPT and Perplexity are changing how people find information. On the latest episode of the Bold Names podcast, Liz Reid, VP, head of Google Search, speaks to WSJ’s Christopher Mims and Tim Higgins about transforming search for the age of AI. After more than two decades inside the company, Reid says that Google has weathered disruption before and believes this moment will expand, not erode, how people explore the web. But can Google Search survive in a world of AI chatbots and answer engines? To watch the video version of this episode, visit our WSJ Podcasts YouTube channel or the video page of WSJ.com.

Great show that inform on a variety of technical and business subjects. Even and unbiased, there is no proselytizing to a particular political viewpoint.
Pleasant commercials for companies.

Just listened to 4. Robotics, Online sports betting, US Aid and one I forgot. There was nothing said that a business undergrad wouldn’t already know. The problem is the shows traditional model. In the old days, media company’s loved getting CEOs as guests. But that doesn’t work anymore because, especially at large firms, senior execs have an army of PR and HR people making sure everything they say is a sales pitch for the company. So they don’t say anything. Startups are a bit different til they get HR going. What’s weird is this show started pretty good, then got political, which I haven’t seen at all in the recent 4. Plus, props for them for asking tough questions of the betting guy. But did they really think he was going to say anything interesting? So, I’m dropping them which is disappointingly as the topics are good and it’s well produced.

The host giggles like a 7 yr old every two minutes. The guest not laughing. So why this giggling. No point or purpose. I had to stop listening to program content.
