Scott Galloway and Journalist Josh Tyrangiel: China’s AI Models Are Already Undercutting the US by Up to 90%

A Fireworks AI cofounder just called something about the AI boom "insane" — and it’s not what you’d think

Vercel CEO Guillermo Rauch says he hasn’t run a product review meeting in months — his own agent runs them, and he only shows up after it already failed.
