    E89: Is NVIDIA Undervalued? The $5 Trillion Valuation Explained

    NVIDIA just became the first company in history to hit a $5 trillion valuation — and most analysts think it’s overpriced. But what if they’re completely wrong? In this episode, Malcolm Werchota breaks down why NVIDIA’s $5 trillion market cap might be the biggest misjudgment in tech investing. With $500 billion in signed chip orders, 90% market share in AI chips, and an unbreakable software moat called CUDA, NVIDIA isn’t just riding the AI wave — they’re building the infrastructure that makes everything else possible. 🧠 You’ll discover: Why NVIDIA has $500B in VISIBLE revenue already locked in (no speculation needed)The “railroad analogy” that explains why this isn’t another dot-com bubbleHow CUDA software creates 6–18 months of switching costs for any competitorWhy China’s reopening could add $50B in annual revenue (pure upside not priced in)The power-grid crisis that proves AI infrastructure demand is already locked inWhat it means when companies become GPU-rich vs GPU-poor Malcolm explains why NVIDIA isn’t a speculative bet on AI — they’re the picks-and-shovels manufacturer in the largest infrastructure transformation since electricity. Whether AI apps succeed or fail, the hardware stays. 📍 Recorded in London — real analysis, zero BS. 🔥 Notable Quotes “NVIDIA is probably the first technology company in history with visibility of half a trillion dollars of revenue.” — Jensen Huang“Every single European company I meet is GPU-poor — they simply can’t get enough NVIDIA chips.”“Top AI talent goes where the best hardware is. Access to GPUs has become a recruiting advantage.”“NVIDIA isn’t the speculative railroad company. They’re the track manufacturer, the locomotive builder, and the OS provider.”“It doesn’t matter which AI app wins — they’ll all run on NVIDIA hardware.”“It’s a $5 trillion misjudgment. We’re laying the tracks of the next industrial age.” 📈 Key Stats to Remember$5 T – NVIDIA’s market valuation (first ever)$500 B – Signed chip orders (visible revenue)90%+ – Market share in AI data-center GPUs3.5 M – CUDA developers$50 B – China upside1 GW – Power per AI data center6–18 months – Switching cost from CUDA95% – Former China share 📡 Connect with Malcolm Werchota 🌐 Website: www.werchota.ai 💼 LinkedIn: Malcolm Werchota 🎥 YouTube: @werchota 🐦 X / Twitter: @malcolmwerchota 📸 Instagram: malcolmwerchotaai 🎧 TikTok: @malcolmwerchota 📬 Email: malcolm@werchota.ai 🎓 AI Fit Academy Ready to level up your AI skills?

    E87: ChatGPT Awards – The Billion-Token Club: How Companies Really Use ChatGPT

    OpenAI launched a new awards program in October 2025: “Tokens of Appreciation” — physical trophies for companies based on their ChatGPT usage. The numbers are insane: only 141 companies worldwide received these awards. McKinsey leads with 100 billion processed tokens — equivalent to 75 billion words, or roughly 7 million consulting reports. PwC follows as the largest ChatGPT Enterprise customer with over 100,000 licenses, and is now the first official OpenAI reseller. This episode reveals: when the Pentagon, Morgan Stanley, and the Big Four are all using ChatGPT — what’s your company’s excuse? Key Topics OpenAI “Tokens of Appreciation” Awards Launched in October 2025Only 141 companies worldwide received awardsThree tiers: Silver (10B tokens), Black (100B tokens), and Blue (top level)Physical trophies as new status symbols in the AI community The Winners – The 1-Billion-Token Club Duolingo: Uses ChatGPT for personalized language learning contentShopify: Embeds AI into e-commerce managementSalesforce: CRM giant leverages ChatGPT for customer intelligenceHubSpot: AI-powered marketing automationStripe: Uses ChatGPT for fraud detection and customer supportNotion: Productivity platform with advanced AI features The Champions – The 100-Billion-Token Club McKinsey: 100B tokens = 75B words = 500,000 novels = 7M consulting reportsPwC: Largest ChatGPT Enterprise customer with 100,000+ licensesPwC: First official OpenAI reseller with 950+ clientsBCG: Deep AI integration in client consulting projectsBain & Company: Strategic AI implementation across operationsDeloitte: Completing the Big Four circle How the Big Four Use ChatGPT Direct use in client projects (not just internally)Clients ask: “Why pay €500/hour when AI does the work?”PwC’s reseller model: selling ChatGPT Enterprise to their clientsInternal productivity boost: higher output with the same headcount The Pentagon & Morgan Stanley Connection U.S. Department of Defense uses ChatGPT for sensitive operationsMorgan Stanley: Adopts ChatGPT under strictest compliance rulesBoth operate under extreme security standards — and still use AIProof: Compliance is no longer a valid excuse Reality Check for European Companies Typical excuses: Compliance, Security, Data Privacy, “We’re still evaluating”Fact: The Pentagon and the Big Four have far stricter requirementsCompetitors are building massive knowledge and efficiency advantagesThe window of opportunity is closing fast What These Numbers Really Mean 100 billion tokens = an unfathomable amount of processed informationMcKinsey alone = 7 million traditional consulting reportsThese firms aren’t experimenting — AI is business-criticalThe productivity gap is already huge Malcolm’s Core Message “Ship First, Study Later” has never been more importantThe age of excuses is over — the evidence is undeniableThe question is no longer if but when you startEvery day of delay = a bigger competitive gap Notable Quotes “Holy shit, bro — McKinsey processed 100 BILLION tokens.

    E86: AI Drama – AI in War: Lavender, Palantir & the Dark Side of Intelligence

    Did you know... that the same AI infrastructure your company relies on is also being used to identify military targets in Gaza and Ukraine? This episode exposes the shocking reality behind systems like Lavender and Palantir — and what that means for your company’s AI strategy. In January 2024, a drone strike killed three U.S. soldiers — even though a state-of-the-art AI defense system had detected the incoming drone. The algorithm simply froze. Why? Because it couldn’t tell friend from foe when an enemy drone flew beside a U.S. drone. In this investigative episode, Malcolm Werchota reveals: The Reality of Military AI Systems Lavender: Israel’s AI system that marked 37,000 people in Gaza as targets — with a 10% error rateWhere’s Daddy: An algorithm that waits until targets return home to strikePalantir in Ukraine: Target acquisition time reduced from 6–8 hours to 2–3 minutesEagle Eye by Anduril: Augmented-reality helmets turning soldiers into “technomancers” The 20-Second DecisionIsraeli soldiers have, on average, 20 seconds to review AI-generated target lists. One soldier admitted: “I had zero added value as a human being — other than to rubber-stamp the algorithm’s output.”The Business ConnectionMicrosoft Azure, Google Cloud, and AWS — the same platforms hosting your business data — also process 11,000 terabytes of surveillance footage. The infrastructure is identical. Only the application differs. Critical Questions for LeadersHow much time do you give your employees to verify AI-driven decisions? 20 seconds? 30 seconds? Do you create a “moral crumple zone” where lower-level employees take the blame when algorithms fail? The technology you deploy in your company is the same technology that kills people in war.This episode isn’t science fiction. It’s October 2025. This is happening now. 🎧 Listen to the full investigation into the dark side of AI — and what you must change inside your organization. 📊 Systems & Technologies MilitaryLavender (Israel)Where’s Daddy (Israel)Eagle Eye (Anduril)Meta Constellation (Palantir)X-62 Vista (U.S. Air Force)FPV Drones (Ukraine) CommercialMicrosoft AzureGoogle Cloud (Project Nimbus)Amazon AWSAnthropic Claude GovernmentOpenAI / Pentagon 🔗 Resources & References Lavender AI System (IDF)Where’s Daddy (IDF)Anduril Eagle EyePalantir Meta ConstellationProject NimbusClaude Government 📬 Contact Malcolm Werchota 🔗 LinkedIn 🌐 Website 📺 YouTube 𝕏 Twitter / X 📘 Facebook 📸 Instagram 🎵 TikTok 📧 Email: malcolm@werchota.ai 💬 Show Feedback: social@werchota.ai 🚀 AI Fit Academy Discover the AI Fit Academy — the program that helps professionals apply AI tools practically in daily work.

    E85: Chip Shortage 2025: How Netherlands-China Dispute Stopped Cars

    When the Dutch government seized chipmaker Nexperia on September 30, 2025, they thought they were protecting European interests. Instead, they triggered a supply chain catastrophe that could shut down automotive production worldwide. In this episode of The AI Cookbook, Malcolm Werchota breaks down the spectacular policy failure that cut off 6 billion chips per month, threatens car factories across three continents, and reveals everything wrong with Europe's approach to the US-China tech war. What You'll Learn: How a single Dutch government action triggered China to block 6 billion chips per month - 40% of the global automotive semiconductor supply Why modern cars need 1,000+ chips and can't simply switch suppliers (qualification takes 6-18 months) The geopolitical chess match: US export controls, Dutch seizure, Chinese retaliation - and why Europe got caught in the crossfire What "just-in-time manufacturing" really means when supply chains become weapons Why this crisis is a preview of AI infrastructure vulnerabilities in Europe Why This Matters: This isn't just about cars or semiconductors. Malcolm explains how the Nexperia crisis reveals the fragility of global supply chains in an era of great power competition - and what it means for anyone building AI infrastructure in a world where technology is increasingly weaponized. "You can't seize technological sovereignty. You have to build it systematically. Europe just learned this lesson the hard way." Perfect For: Supply chain professionals, business leaders managing geopolitical risk, AI teams building European infrastructure, anyone navigating the US-China tech war. KEY TOPICS COVERED ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────── The Nexperia Crisis Timeline (00:45) September 30: Netherlands seizes Nexperia under emergency powers October 4: China blocks chip exports from Guangdong facility October 17: Alliance for Automotive Innovation warns of US plant shutdowns 6 billion chips per month suddenly trapped - 40% of automotive semiconductor market BMW, Toyota, Mercedes-Benz, Volkswagen, Ford, GM, Stellantis all affected Understanding the Supply Chain Catastrophe (03:20) Why you can't just switch chip suppliers: 6-18 month qualification process Modern cars require 1,000+ semiconductor components Nexperia's role: Basic transistors and diodes (not advanced AI chips) The problem: Design in Netherlands, manufacturing in Germany, assembly in China 80% of finished products now trapped behind Chinese export blocks The Geopolitical Chess Match (05:45) US-China tech war escalation and semiconductor weaponization Europe caught between two superpowers - no good options Netherlands' miscalculation: Legal control ≠ operational control Why China targeted automotive chips for maximum pain The death of "strategic autonomy" as a policy framework Supply Chain Vulnerabilities Exposed (08:30) Just-in-time manufacturing's incompatibility with geopolitical risk Why automotive chips became the battlefield Geographic dependencies and single points of failure The cost of efficiency without resilience How supply chains become weapons in great power competition What This Means for AI Infrastructure in Europe (11:15) If we can't secure basic chips, how do we build AI capabilities? Practical strategies for managing geopolitical risk in technology Why resilience now matters more than efficiency Lessons for anyone building on global supply chains The new reality: Security and redundancy over cost optimization ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────── EPISODE INSIGHTS ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Malcolm's Core Message: "The Death of Strategic Autonomy" Europe attempted to navigate the US-China tech war by seizing Nexperia to protect supply chains. Instead, they demonstrated why you can't build technological sovereignty through government seizures. Real resilience requires systematic investment in full-stack capabilities - fabrication, packaging, assembly, testing - built BEFORE taking actions that trigger retaliation. The Nexperia crisis is a case study in what NOT to do. The question is whether we'll learn the lessons before the next crisis hits. Notable Quote: "This crisis exposes the fragility of globalized supply chains when caught between Washington and Beijing. Modern cars require over 1,000 semiconductor components. Qualifying new suppliers takes months or years. Just-in-time manufacturing means no backup inventory. The math is brutal: no chips = no cars." ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────── RESOURCES & LINKS MENTIONED ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Alliance for Automotive Innovation warning statement Dutch Goods Availability Act documentation US Entity List and export control regulations Nexperia company information and facilities ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────── WHERE TO FIND MALCOLM WERCHOTA ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────── LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/malcolmwerchota/ Website: https://www.werchota.ai/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@werchota X: https://x.com/malcolmwerchota Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/people/AI-Cookbook-by-Malcolm-Werchota/61580362300250/?sk=reels_tab Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/malcolmwerchotaai/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/malcolmwerchota ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────── GET IN TOUCH ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Have questions about AI implementation or want to share your transformation story?

A lesbian dating app in Brazil — built by queer women, for queer women. Manual verification. No fake profiles. No men. Then everything went wrong. In September 2025, Sapphos launched as a sanctuary with government-ID checks. Within 48 hours, 40,000 women downloaded it. A week later, a catastrophic flaw exposed the most sensitive data of 17,000 users — IDs, photos, names, birthdays. 🔍 One researcher discovered he could view anyone’s profile just by changing a number in a URL. That’s how fast “safety” can vanish when speed beats security. 🧠 What This Episode Covers This episode of AI Drama investigates how AI-generated code, underqualified devs, and “vibe coding” collided with a vulnerable community. It’s not a takedown of two activists — it’s a warning about asking for extreme trust without professional security. 🎓 You’ll Learn How a single IDOR-style bug leaked government IDs and photosWhy AI-generated code often ships with hidden flawsThe unique threats LGBTQ+ apps face in high-violence regionsWhat happened after the founders deleted evidence of the breachHow to spot red flags before uploading your ID anywhere ⚠️ The Real Stakes 🇧🇷 Brazil remains one of the most dangerous countries for LGBTQ+ people. Lesbian and bisexual women face three times higher rates of violence than straight women. For many Sapphos users, being outed wasn’t embarrassing — it was life-threatening. 🧩 What Went Wrong Identity checks increased trust — but concentrated riskWhen one app collects IDs, selfies, and locations, a single bug exposes everythingAI sped up insecure coding — ~45 % of AI-generated code has vulnerabilitiesNo audits, no penetration tests, poor access controlLogs deleted → evidence erasedCommunication failed: instead of transparency, users saw silence and denial 🚨 Red Flags Before Trusting an App ✅ Verified security audits (SOC 2 / ISO 27001) ✅ Transparent privacy policy + deletion options ✅ Minimal data collection — no unnecessary IDs ✅ Public security contact or bug-bounty page ✅ Experienced, visible founding team ❌ Avoid apps claiming “100 % secure” or “completely private” 🛡️ Safer Habits 🔑 Use unique emails + a password manager 🕵️ Prefer privacy-preserving verification methods 📍 Turn off precise location & strip photo metadata 🆔 After any breach: change credentials, rotate IDs if possible, monitor credit 💬 Notable Quotes “Marina’s only ‘mistake’ was trusting people who promised protection.”“The lesson isn’t don’t build — it’s don’t build insecure. Demand proof, not promises.” 📊 Select Facts ~45 % of AI-generated code shows security flawsLGBTQ+ users face more online harassmentBrazil records one LGBTQ+ person killed every ~48 hours🎙️ AI Drama is a narrative-journalism podcast about the human cost when technology fails those who trust it most.
