1 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:07,440 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news. 2 00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:09,800 Speaker 2: From the heart of. 3 00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:15,480 Speaker 3: Where innovation, money and power collide in Silicon Valley and beyond. 4 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:19,960 Speaker 4: This is Bloomberg Technology with Caroline Hyde. 5 00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:20,760 Speaker 5: And Ed Ludlow. 6 00:00:37,159 --> 00:00:40,280 Speaker 3: Welcome to a special edition of BlueBag Technology. I'm Caroline Hyde. 7 00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:42,600 Speaker 3: Right here in Las Vegas. We are live from the 8 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:45,960 Speaker 3: human x AI conference and we're going to be talking 9 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,920 Speaker 3: to some of the biggest industry leaders and decision makers 10 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:52,519 Speaker 3: in the AI space throughout this next hour. As you 11 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 3: can see, a key lineup of expertise. But let's move 12 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 3: on to also the discussion of how the public markets 13 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 3: feed into the private markets. How does one think about 14 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 3: the startup space as we contend with this growth anxiety, 15 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,480 Speaker 3: as we contend with tariff anxiety. Let's bring in Alfred 16 00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:12,000 Speaker 3: Lynn Squire Capital Partners, someone who thinks about seed about 17 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 3: early stage investment, has been at the forefront of artificial 18 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,960 Speaker 3: intelligence investment before many others. And Alfred, look, how does 19 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:20,960 Speaker 3: the public market feed into the private market from your 20 00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 3: perspective right now? 21 00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 5: Well, Caroline, thank you for having me on the show. 22 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:26,840 Speaker 6: This is a great honor to be here, you know, 23 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 6: to answer your question directly, We just think about building 24 00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,360 Speaker 6: great companies and partnering with great founders and helping them 25 00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:36,280 Speaker 6: from idea to IPO and beyond. And so in terms 26 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:38,600 Speaker 6: of thinking about the public markets, we just think about 27 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:41,399 Speaker 6: much much longer term. We work with founders at the 28 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 6: idea stage in a y in a decade, that company 29 00:01:44,520 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 6: can then be worth one to ten million dollars in 30 00:01:46,959 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 6: two decades. It could be worth ten to one hundred 31 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 6: billion dollars in three decades, like in for invidious case, 32 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 6: in Google's case, in Apple's case that we backed very 33 00:01:57,080 --> 00:02:01,640 Speaker 6: early on, they become potentially a trilling dollar company. And so, yes, 34 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:04,440 Speaker 6: markets can go up and down, there might be you know, 35 00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:06,600 Speaker 6: sort of bumps in the road, but I would just 36 00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 6: encourage your viewers to think about the long long term 37 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,480 Speaker 6: and when you're behind a megatrends such as AI, it 38 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 6: can last for a long, long period of time. 39 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,680 Speaker 3: That megatren needs infrastructure and it needs electricity and power. 40 00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:20,359 Speaker 3: That's one of the key anxieties of Andy Jesse, for example, 41 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 3: at Amazon saying his constraint on AWS is power. Is 42 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 3: it something that your ceo is are contending with how 43 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 3: to ultimately sustain their growth paths? 44 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:29,760 Speaker 6: I think it's something that they think about, and it's 45 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 6: something that we need to work on, and there are 46 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 6: a lot of great minds working on it. It's not 47 00:02:34,240 --> 00:02:37,200 Speaker 6: something that I'm an expert in, but you're right. Power 48 00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 6: is something that we need in data centers, and the 49 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 6: bigger the data centers we've built, the more powerful the 50 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,160 Speaker 6: models we've been able to build, the more powerful the applications, 51 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:47,639 Speaker 6: and so I'm sure we'll get solved. 52 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 3: Also interesting is, of course you mentioned how Sequoia was 53 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:54,639 Speaker 3: early into Jensen Huang's vision for AI. You're now thinking 54 00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:57,960 Speaker 3: about not just sort of moving away from lllms, we're 55 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 3: going into application layers, and we're also going into physics. 56 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 3: I know that that's really important to you at the moment, 57 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 3: the application of robotics. Where is the next growth story 58 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 3: in this long term mega trend? 59 00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 6: Well, I think they're uh, let's break this up. I 60 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 6: think s there's still lots to do in the foundation 61 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 6: layer model. 62 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 5: They're not done. These companies like open. 63 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 6: Ai that we backed UH early on, they're still continuing 64 00:03:18,120 --> 00:03:20,880 Speaker 6: to build a foundation model layer that allows the application 65 00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 6: founders to build applications that we've not seen before. And 66 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 6: we will continue to see UH innovation there will you 67 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 6: continue to. 68 00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,079 Speaker 2: See private rounds for those sorts of companies. 69 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 3: Is there ever a point in which they've just raised 70 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 3: too much money in the private markets? 71 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:35,320 Speaker 5: It c It goes up and down. 72 00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:37,600 Speaker 6: But the p the point is that over time these 73 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:41,040 Speaker 6: companies are always surprising us in the long run on 74 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 6: what they're capable of doing. Sure, in the short term 75 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 6: they may uh surprise us in the I and technology 76 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,040 Speaker 6: tends to surprise us in the opposite direction, but in 77 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 6: the long run it always surprises us in the positive direction. 78 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 6: And in in terms of many of the companies who 79 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,000 Speaker 6: work with, they're just providing automation to. 80 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,880 Speaker 5: A lot of work flows today. That's what we see today. 81 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,040 Speaker 6: So companies that we work with, such as Clay, they're 82 00:04:05,040 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 6: trying to help salespeople with their leads and autoutomatically enriching 83 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:12,560 Speaker 6: their leads so that the salespeople can focus on actually 84 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 6: growing their business and contacting the right leads. And with 85 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 6: Khmure or their ambient scribe is helping doctors focus on 86 00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:23,040 Speaker 6: care not the administrative work. They listen in the background, 87 00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 6: take notes, and yes they take the notes. It seems 88 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 6: like something small, but then once you take the notes, 89 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:32,280 Speaker 6: they can code the medical codes properly for insurance claims, 90 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,360 Speaker 6: and that just allows the doctors to focus on care. 91 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 6: And we're going to see more and more innovation because 92 00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,960 Speaker 6: we are left to do some of the more interesting 93 00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 6: things that humans do better than machines. 94 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 3: So you're looking at still LMS still then looking at 95 00:04:47,960 --> 00:04:50,920 Speaker 3: the application there. What's been interesting is we have had 96 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:56,160 Speaker 3: this fomo feel in still in the latest alumni from 97 00:04:56,200 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 3: open ai going up and starting their own company at Ilia, 98 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 3: for example, potentially raise get thirty billion dollars without even 99 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:04,400 Speaker 3: really a product out there or any revenue stream. 100 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 2: Would you still back him at that sort of valuation? 101 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,120 Speaker 2: Are you doing following an investment? 102 00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,320 Speaker 6: I think the interesting thing is if you think that 103 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:15,080 Speaker 6: something could be worth a trillion dollars, whether it's what 104 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 6: you the entry price today is important, but not as 105 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 6: relevant as what you think the order of magnitude is 106 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:24,839 Speaker 6: in the future. And I think the order of magnitude 107 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 6: that we think about today will surprise us in the 108 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 6: long run. 109 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:29,880 Speaker 5: Don't forget a decade ago. 110 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,279 Speaker 6: Two decades ago, we didn't think a trillion dollar company 111 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:36,000 Speaker 6: as possible. If you compound what trillion dollars twenty percent 112 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:38,279 Speaker 6: a year of a year for the next decade, we 113 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:43,680 Speaker 6: will have ten twenty trillion dollar companies. So you know, 114 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 6: you just have to think about the order of magnitude 115 00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:49,400 Speaker 6: that is possible and we need to change our mindspace 116 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 6: around that. 117 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,799 Speaker 3: Help change our mind space because you have been seeing 118 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 3: around these corners longer than nearly anyone. How can you 119 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,680 Speaker 3: see that earlier is someone to back? How can you 120 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:00,719 Speaker 3: see that a founder is in an indel you want 121 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 3: to see the vision of and think. 122 00:06:02,440 --> 00:06:04,040 Speaker 2: That they get to build a trillion on a company. 123 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:04,279 Speaker 7: Yeah. 124 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:06,240 Speaker 6: I think that it comes down to the founders. And 125 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:08,960 Speaker 6: we've been very good at picking founders that are known 126 00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:13,719 Speaker 6: by their first names. Jensen at Nvidio, that Steve ad Apple, 127 00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,479 Speaker 6: Larry at Google, Sam. 128 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:17,719 Speaker 5: And Sam and open Ai. 129 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:23,200 Speaker 6: And today's founders are Ilia and Brian at Airbnb and 130 00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 6: Tony at geor Dash and the list goes on and on. 131 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 6: So these founders are special because they have a vision 132 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:34,159 Speaker 6: of the world that the world has viewed, the world 133 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 6: has sorry, the world has solved a problem incorrectly, and 134 00:06:38,000 --> 00:06:40,160 Speaker 6: they want to go change it. Yeah, and we get 135 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:42,120 Speaker 6: the front row seat to see how they want to 136 00:06:42,160 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 6: go change the future. 137 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 2: Is Mara going to be a name that we know 138 00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:47,480 Speaker 2: and one that you're gonna. 139 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:48,279 Speaker 5: Allow you already know. 140 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:49,640 Speaker 2: Are you backing her? 141 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 3: We're talking to her, You're talking to Merrett, You're talking 142 00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 3: to Ilia on his latest funding round. 143 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 5: Where are investor is in LA's company? 144 00:06:57,839 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 2: I know do follow on because he's building something a 145 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 2: big vision. 146 00:07:00,680 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 5: We'll consider that too. 147 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 3: Tell us about the thesis when it comes to llms 148 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 3: and then application layers and then the robotics and physical AI. 149 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 3: What for you is going to be pushing us forward 150 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 3: in terms of the next situation of value coming from 151 00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 3: these companies going to Are we getting to the stage 152 00:07:17,760 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 3: that they will see one trillion across all of those spaces? 153 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 5: Do you think I believe that's to be true. 154 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 6: And if you sort of go back in time, when 155 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 6: I started my career, we thought that all the value 156 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:31,120 Speaker 6: will accrue to the software layer. That's why we invest 157 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 6: in software companies. Yeah, but over today the Magnificent seven, 158 00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 6: all of them are both hardware and software companies, and 159 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 6: some of them in the physical world. I think the 160 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 6: physical world is going to be the next boundary that 161 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,600 Speaker 6: we're going to break, which is why I'm very excited 162 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 6: to be here with Brad Porter from Collaborative robotics. 163 00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 3: And it's interesting, of course you backed Xai when it 164 00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:54,880 Speaker 3: comes to AI. Elon himself busy looking at robotics from 165 00:07:54,880 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 3: his Tesla perspective as well. How are you thinking about 166 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 3: who wins in the robotics space? They're gonna be countless 167 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 3: winners and applications. 168 00:08:02,440 --> 00:08:04,840 Speaker 6: As you know that there are many many winners, Uh 169 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 6: when there when there's a megatron, and so I believe 170 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:11,400 Speaker 6: they're gonna be many winners and robotics. And yes, Tesla's 171 00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 6: building robots. They were building cars before. They also build software. 172 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,160 Speaker 6: And Elon Uh is someone that we back across a 173 00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 6: variety of companies such as SpaceX and Boring Company, and 174 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 6: the physical world is something that we will continue to 175 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 6: attack and make progress over the coming years. 176 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 3: How frustrating or how illuminating is it when your founders 177 00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 3: are having arguments in public like Sam versus Elon? 178 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:37,040 Speaker 2: Does that bother you? 179 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 6: That's you can ask them that those questions. But no 180 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 6: founders have Uh a particular view of the world and 181 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 6: they like to be they like to express those views. 182 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:50,439 Speaker 5: So it's good. 183 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 6: That people sort of talk about what they believe and 184 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,840 Speaker 6: how they're going to change the world through that and 185 00:08:56,880 --> 00:08:59,640 Speaker 6: I believe the discussion is always the positive thing. 186 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 2: Who and where are they going to be from? 187 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:04,480 Speaker 3: Is changing the world at this moment when you think 188 00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,040 Speaker 3: about China versus. 189 00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 2: The US deep Seek. 190 00:09:07,200 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 3: You wrote a very thoughtful blog about the impact of 191 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:13,560 Speaker 3: deep seek and the opportunities for learning from these powerful 192 00:09:13,640 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 3: generative AI models that come and the innovation and the 193 00:09:16,720 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 3: data and the efficiencies we're going to see. Are we 194 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 3: going to see a so called winners on either side 195 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 3: and around the world. 196 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 6: Well, I believe in humanity instead of one country over 197 00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:30,960 Speaker 6: the other. I am an immigrant to this country, and 198 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 6: I believe that the way we operate and build businesses 199 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:37,160 Speaker 6: here is much more innovative. And so I'm rooting for 200 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 6: the United States, but more but even more than I'm 201 00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 6: rooting for humanity to continue to progress. And the more 202 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 6: progress we make here, the more progress the people in 203 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,199 Speaker 6: China want to make, And the more progress they make there, 204 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,240 Speaker 6: the more we want to continue to make progress. And 205 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:54,320 Speaker 6: so that just is the thing that I'm I'm most 206 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 6: focused on, which is we're going to just make each 207 00:09:56,640 --> 00:09:58,199 Speaker 6: other better at Competition. 208 00:09:57,800 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 5: Has always made us better. 209 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:03,559 Speaker 6: And I believe in the United States and its ability 210 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 6: and it's free society to do things in much more 211 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:08,800 Speaker 6: innovative ways than almost any other country in the world. 212 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,000 Speaker 6: It's our innovation, it's our free spirit, and it's also 213 00:10:12,040 --> 00:10:16,400 Speaker 6: our capital markets. You think about our place in the world. 214 00:10:16,440 --> 00:10:19,360 Speaker 6: We have what approximately four percent of the world's population, 215 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 6: but we have a disproportionate number of the amazing companies, 216 00:10:25,400 --> 00:10:27,480 Speaker 6: the most valuable companies in the world. We have a 217 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 6: disproportionate amount of capital that we have and control. 218 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:33,480 Speaker 5: And are able to invest. 219 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:37,360 Speaker 6: This is why your viewers listen to you and this show, 220 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 6: because Bloomberg is the place where a lot of information 221 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 6: about capital is talked about. 222 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:45,440 Speaker 3: Alphad thanks that they're listening to you, and they're listening 223 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:49,360 Speaker 3: to thinking about how the money comes back ultimately to 224 00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 3: your LPs, and it's going to be about exits. How 225 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,079 Speaker 3: are you thinking about the IPA market? How you think 226 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,040 Speaker 3: about M and A. Boy, we just had service now 227 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:57,760 Speaker 3: move works. M and A is still getting done. 228 00:10:57,960 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 6: Yeah, So I think that that's a great question shown 229 00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,280 Speaker 6: lots of people ask that, but I just want to 230 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 6: emphasize that at SAKO, over the last five years, we've 231 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,800 Speaker 6: distributed over forty three billion dollars back to our LPs, 232 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 6: and so this is a business that, if done right, 233 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 6: can generate a lot of returns for elimited partners. On 234 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:19,160 Speaker 6: top of that, I just kind of tell our founders 235 00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 6: it doesn't matter what's going on in the public markets 236 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 6: or in the M and A markets, just focus on 237 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 6: building a long term great business. If you do that, 238 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 6: as did Tony at Door to Ash and Brian at 239 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 6: Airbnb and many others are doing today, you. 240 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:34,199 Speaker 5: Will always have options. 241 00:11:34,400 --> 00:11:36,560 Speaker 6: And that option may come in at M and A, 242 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:38,199 Speaker 6: that option may come in IPO. 243 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 5: I would contend that the IPO. 244 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 6: Market is always open for great companies. 245 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 3: What's interesting is we first saw AI come into existence 246 00:11:47,360 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 3: almost in a not for profit mentality, and now we 247 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 3: think open AI thinking about trying to restructure and become 248 00:11:52,480 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 3: a for profit entity more clearly. 249 00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:55,160 Speaker 2: Is that something that you back, that. 250 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 3: You support, that you want to see clearer division of 251 00:11:57,360 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 3: for profit and not. 252 00:11:59,120 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 4: I think that. 253 00:11:59,840 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 6: I think if you go back in history, AI has 254 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:05,040 Speaker 6: existed for way longer than what you're talking about, which 255 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,959 Speaker 6: is open AI. I mean, the j Jensen was building 256 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,400 Speaker 6: GPUs way longer than what we're talking about today. And 257 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,160 Speaker 6: the first uh, the first set of applications that we're 258 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:19,199 Speaker 6: that were AI applications were something like AdWords that Google built, 259 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:23,320 Speaker 6: or trading platforms that many of your viewers and that 260 00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 6: work at large institutions have been using. Those who were 261 00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:32,040 Speaker 6: called machine learning. We just changed that term for profit nonprofit. 262 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:35,559 Speaker 6: Those are just structures for accomplishing what the mission of 263 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 6: the company wants to do. 264 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:40,000 Speaker 5: And I'm supportive of whatever. 265 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 6: The right model is to do that. But as an investor, 266 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 6: I want to make sure that the equity that we 267 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 6: invest in has appreciation and that's that's that's separate from 268 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:52,559 Speaker 6: the mission. 269 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 3: Well, you have an extraordinary realm of portfolio companies. You 270 00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:58,200 Speaker 3: sit on some amazing board Citadel Securities among them, as 271 00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 3: well as ABNB as you say, and you had a 272 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 3: long history of being a founder and a builder yourself. 273 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 3: Alfred Lynn, we thank you so much from Sequoia Capital 274 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:07,680 Speaker 3: once we return. Now they're the private markets and people 275 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 3: building within that space. Mayhobib is a key founder, CEO 276 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 3: and indeed the co founder of Writer Generative AI platform 277 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:15,440 Speaker 3: for the enterprise. 278 00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:16,560 Speaker 2: And I've got to. 279 00:13:16,559 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 3: Ask at this time, May, when you're really seeing the 280 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:21,400 Speaker 3: growth accelerate for your business, when you're seeing more and 281 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,440 Speaker 3: more fortune five hundred businesses want to work with you. 282 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 3: What are these CEOs telling you about the landscape, about 283 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 3: anxiety about putting money into generative AI when they don't 284 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 3: know when the next tariff is hitting. 285 00:13:30,559 --> 00:13:33,120 Speaker 8: Yeah, there's no question that selling generative I in the 286 00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 8: enterprise right now has to be an ROI first story. 287 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 8: Because these are the same CEOs who are telling the 288 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 8: street that they're cutting op X and you know they're 289 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 8: trimming down their teams. So it really puts a big 290 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 8: focus on the kind of return. And the reality is 291 00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 8: actually said it a couple weekends ago. Right there has 292 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:52,559 Speaker 8: never been such a big gulf between what technology can 293 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:55,480 Speaker 8: do and then what's actually happening inside of the enterprise. 294 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 8: We've got a survey coming out for Fortune five hundred execs. 295 00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:02,600 Speaker 8: Seventy one percent are saying that their generative AI efforts have. 296 00:14:02,600 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 2: Been very disappointing, very disappointing. 297 00:14:05,400 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 8: And so you know, it absolutely is a big thing. 298 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 2: Why is it disappointing? 299 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,960 Speaker 3: Why is it so hard to bring this once in 300 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:15,240 Speaker 3: a lifetime AI exuberance. 301 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:16,040 Speaker 2: To bear on your productivity? 302 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,400 Speaker 8: I think we are bringing knives to knives to a 303 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:22,400 Speaker 8: gunfight when it comes to actually building with generative AI. 304 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 8: People are taking these really long kind of software development cycles, 305 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 8: and it is taking these projects to the business, and 306 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 8: business is saying this is not really good enough to 307 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 8: actually write benefit my work. So we take a very 308 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:39,240 Speaker 8: different approach. Writer is purpose built for that kind of 309 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:42,280 Speaker 8: collaboration you need between the business and it to actually 310 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 8: deliver generative AI projects and applications and agents that work 311 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:47,280 Speaker 8: for the business. 312 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 2: So it's sort of legacy software is the issue here. 313 00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:54,320 Speaker 8: So it's it's the legacy tooling of building right these 314 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 8: these products, and so the lms are very very powerful 315 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 8: that you need to wrap it with data, with workflow, 316 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 8: with no how and that's just not happening right now 317 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 8: and most IT departments in the enterprise. 318 00:15:05,840 --> 00:15:07,480 Speaker 2: So help measure your success. 319 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 3: How you articulating to those you're going out in pitch 320 00:15:09,680 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 3: and saying you will get ROI with us. 321 00:15:12,800 --> 00:15:15,880 Speaker 8: It's a very solution oriented approach. So you know, we're 322 00:15:15,920 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 8: not talking about, hey, buy a full stack platform by 323 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 8: our amazing lllms, look at us, how great we are. 324 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:25,600 Speaker 8: We're talking about actual end user productivity and end user 325 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 8: use cases. So it's very solution oriented. 326 00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:32,040 Speaker 3: What's also interesting is you've set yourself apart from a 327 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 3: pretty crowded field. I'm going to say, like AGENTICKI and 328 00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:37,160 Speaker 3: generative AI and the workplace and enterprise seems to be 329 00:15:37,240 --> 00:15:40,200 Speaker 3: everyone's Lexican right now. But you're coming at it from look, 330 00:15:40,240 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 3: we do something very different with the type of data 331 00:15:42,400 --> 00:15:44,480 Speaker 3: we're using and the type of model building that we're 332 00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 3: going through. You're almost saying like, actually, you don't look 333 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 3: at a reasoning model, look at our type of model. 334 00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:49,280 Speaker 2: What is your type of model? 335 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, look at this exhibition floor. It's literally 336 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,640 Speaker 8: hundreds and hundreds of startups and it's such an exciting opportunity. 337 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 8: But when it comes to the enterprise, they are looking 338 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 8: at the vendors that they trust, the ones. 339 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,000 Speaker 2: That already have their data. 340 00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 8: But yesterday I was with a CIO of a fortune 341 00:16:04,360 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 8: five hundred company where to hire an employee, they need 342 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 8: to touch one hundred systems, only ten fifteen of them 343 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:14,440 Speaker 8: might be a service now application. Right, So we kind 344 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,160 Speaker 8: of see ourselves as that Switzerland that ties together a 345 00:16:17,160 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 8: lot of disparate systems. They when it comes to building 346 00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 8: these agentic applications, and it really is that bringing together 347 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:27,320 Speaker 8: structured and unstructured data together to build the toolings. 348 00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 3: But when we had Jensen Wang come out with his 349 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 3: latest earnings. He tried to paint the vision of a 350 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,920 Speaker 3: new scaling law that's here because of reasoning models. But 351 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:37,880 Speaker 3: you're actually taking issue with reasoning models in the general 352 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 3: of AI application right now, you think that self evolving 353 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 3: models is. 354 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 2: Where we should go. Okny, articulate what that is? 355 00:16:43,240 --> 00:16:45,880 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean I love Jensen and he just wants 356 00:16:46,200 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 8: more tokens, right, And he's absolutely right right in the 357 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,120 Speaker 8: spirit of what he's saying, which is the revolution is 358 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 8: just getting started. 359 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:53,320 Speaker 2: Right, The vast. 360 00:16:53,080 --> 00:16:56,800 Speaker 8: Majority of enterprises are still not benefiting from AI, So 361 00:16:56,880 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 8: imagine what's going to happen once they do. Right when 362 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:03,200 Speaker 8: it comes to the actual LMS, Right, what we're saying 363 00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 8: is the path to superintelligence is through self evolving models. 364 00:17:07,600 --> 00:17:10,399 Speaker 8: Models that can update their training data in real time 365 00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 8: in response to making a mistake and then getting nudged. 366 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:17,160 Speaker 2: By a user. You didn't get our process right, right. 367 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 8: If we need to go out and retrain or fine 368 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,280 Speaker 8: tune or you know, rebuild a RAG pipeline every time 369 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,199 Speaker 8: a model is wrong, we are never going to get 370 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,120 Speaker 8: to the kind of superintelligence that's possible. 371 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:28,520 Speaker 3: What about the talent that's needed at the moment, We've 372 00:17:28,520 --> 00:17:31,120 Speaker 3: got a new administration that seems to be cutting funding 373 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 3: for science in the United States, for universities and next 374 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:36,719 Speaker 3: level education. 375 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:38,960 Speaker 2: Is that something that worries you? Or is talent still rich? 376 00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 8: I mean, talent is a struggle no matter you know 377 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 8: what the political environment. We just opened up our London 378 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,920 Speaker 8: and Singapore offices for exactly this reason, to be able 379 00:17:49,920 --> 00:17:52,479 Speaker 8: to hire outside of the United States. Most of our 380 00:17:52,520 --> 00:17:54,919 Speaker 8: four hundred employees are here, but as we look to 381 00:17:54,960 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 8: double over the next year, we. 382 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:59,639 Speaker 3: Are definitely going to be growing internationally. What about inorganic 383 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 3: versus organic? Every time you come on, I say, whoever 384 00:18:03,000 --> 00:18:05,400 Speaker 3: startups you're looking at, what other aqua hyers can you do? 385 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 2: Is it still rich pickings for you to buy other businesses? 386 00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 8: There are literally hundreds of startups that are doing really, 387 00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 8: really exciting things. They are finding it difficult to sell 388 00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 8: into the enterprise. We have kind of risen above the noise, 389 00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:20,159 Speaker 8: and so there have been, you know, some really interesting 390 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,399 Speaker 8: things that we're looking at as bolt on acquisitions to 391 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:23,399 Speaker 8: the Writer platform. 392 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 3: Come on when you can announce some of them, maybe, 393 00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 3: but it's always great to catch up with her, the 394 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 3: CEO of Writer. Now let's return to where we're going next. 395 00:18:31,359 --> 00:18:33,159 Speaker 3: Much more to expect from Human x conference, but in 396 00:18:33,200 --> 00:18:35,840 Speaker 3: the interim it looks for happened to Oracle shares after 397 00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:37,760 Speaker 3: they had their numbers after the bell yesterday, there was 398 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 3: disappointment that eight percent revenue growth that was hopeful was 399 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 3: not quite matched. 400 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 2: We're off by five percent. 401 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,439 Speaker 3: They did say, look next fiscal year, the year after that, 402 00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:47,639 Speaker 3: we can have seen fifteen percent twenty percent revenue growth. 403 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:49,920 Speaker 3: But in the here and now the disappoint in terms 404 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:54,680 Speaker 3: of cloud infrastructure demand and sales return. From Las Vegas, 405 00:18:54,840 --> 00:19:11,920 Speaker 3: this is Bloom their technology. Welcome back to a special 406 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 3: edition of Blue meg Technology. 407 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 2: I'm Karen Hyde in Las Vegas. 408 00:19:15,040 --> 00:19:18,119 Speaker 3: We're live at the human x AI conference, and we 409 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 3: are keeping arest what's happening in public markets because after 410 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 3: the biggest sell off for the Nazak one hundred yesterday 411 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,040 Speaker 3: in it since twenty twenty two, we want to see 412 00:19:26,040 --> 00:19:28,159 Speaker 3: what the Magnificent seven is up to. We're currently bouncing 413 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 3: around up now four tens percent, but this is not 414 00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 3: the sort of bounce back that we anticipated after the 415 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,560 Speaker 3: hard sell off of yesterday. Their anxiety is still there 416 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,520 Speaker 3: when it comes to US growth, tariff pressure and the 417 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 3: latest that are being imposed, of course on Canadian goods. 418 00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:44,119 Speaker 3: Let's talk about what it means for the private sector. 419 00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:47,440 Speaker 3: Vibes and Rachel Metz is here in Las Vegas, lock. 420 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 3: This is one of the biggest artificial intelligence gatherings. 421 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:53,560 Speaker 2: Are they feeling exuberant? 422 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:55,520 Speaker 3: Are they worried about what's happening in the public markets 423 00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:56,880 Speaker 3: and the sell off that we've seen in the likes 424 00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:57,720 Speaker 3: of Nvidia. 425 00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:59,720 Speaker 2: Down a trillion dollars from its highs and market cap. 426 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 9: I think it's a little bit of both things, right. 427 00:20:02,880 --> 00:20:04,679 Speaker 9: I think people are a little concerned about what's going 428 00:20:04,720 --> 00:20:07,360 Speaker 9: on in the stock market. But frankly, during the time 429 00:20:07,359 --> 00:20:09,440 Speaker 9: that I've been here, I see a lot of people 430 00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:13,880 Speaker 9: excited about AI. I mean, this is a conference has 431 00:20:14,200 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 9: not happened before, so people are excited to be here 432 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 9: to see what's going to happen here. And a lot 433 00:20:20,240 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 9: of people probably haven't haven't been together, you know, in 434 00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:24,160 Speaker 9: this space, and it's there are so many people. 435 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:25,840 Speaker 2: The vibes are i'd say, prely good. 436 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,280 Speaker 3: At this moment because the moon music had been still 437 00:20:28,440 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 3: one of Fomo, which is talking with Alfred Lynn about 438 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:34,360 Speaker 3: how he's stills been with Elia, who's potentially raising at 439 00:20:34,359 --> 00:20:37,399 Speaker 3: thirty billion dollars, the ex open AI alumni who are 440 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:41,119 Speaker 3: coming out memorialities raising money. We're expecting just these bigger 441 00:20:41,160 --> 00:20:44,199 Speaker 3: and big e valuations with few and fewer products actually 442 00:20:44,200 --> 00:20:46,399 Speaker 3: being offered. People are getting in at such an early stage. 443 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:48,800 Speaker 3: Is that going to stay with these public market gyrations? 444 00:20:49,440 --> 00:20:50,760 Speaker 2: That is a really good question. 445 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:52,480 Speaker 9: I think it's a little bit hard to say, but 446 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:55,720 Speaker 9: it certainly is still the case that you only have 447 00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 9: I think a handful of people that are able to 448 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,919 Speaker 9: command these kinds of value cuations, these amounts of money 449 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 9: without even saying, look, here's my minimum viable product. 450 00:21:06,119 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 2: You know, like Ilia's company in. 451 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 9: Particular, they have said specifically like we're not gonna show anything, 452 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,479 Speaker 9: We're I can roll anything out until we get to 453 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 9: this extremely high level of a product. 454 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:17,919 Speaker 2: So I think you're not gonna have a ton of 455 00:21:17,920 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 2: people like that. 456 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 9: But you're right that people are asking questions about just 457 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 9: in general, like how much money you should be put 458 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 9: toward these things, especially if it's not something we've even 459 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:27,880 Speaker 9: gotten a hint of what is going to be yet. 460 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 3: You're speaking with international CEOs as well and leaders of 461 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,560 Speaker 3: AI businesses. How are they viewing the US as a 462 00:21:34,640 --> 00:21:38,160 Speaker 3: place to be building right now versus France and Mistral 463 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:40,280 Speaker 3: or what's happening in the Middle East or in Asia. 464 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:46,440 Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean, I think people are feeling like it's 465 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:49,399 Speaker 9: it's not totally clear yet how things are going to 466 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 9: shake out. I think there's probably a little bit of hesitation. 467 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 9: But also I'm not sure that anybody is really saying like, oh, 468 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:57,680 Speaker 9: I'm not going you know, I'm not going to do. 469 00:21:57,600 --> 00:21:59,959 Speaker 2: That right now, and we're not worried about scaling. 470 00:22:01,320 --> 00:22:03,840 Speaker 9: I mean, I think people should certainly be thinking about it, 471 00:22:04,520 --> 00:22:07,679 Speaker 9: and for a variety of reasons. It's getting more and 472 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 9: more and more expensive to build larger AI models that 473 00:22:11,440 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 9: also uses. 474 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 2: More and more resources. 475 00:22:13,200 --> 00:22:15,520 Speaker 9: So I think you see people thinking about, well, how 476 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:17,719 Speaker 9: else might we be able to build these things and 477 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:21,920 Speaker 9: make them both powerful and not en cost effective and 478 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 9: also decempro the environment. 479 00:22:23,800 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 3: Rachel Metz is going on stage very soon. 480 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:33,840 Speaker 2: We thank you for joining us. 481 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 3: Welcome back to the special edition of Blomberg Technology. We 482 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:43,200 Speaker 3: are live from the Human x AI conference in Las Vegas. 483 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:46,120 Speaker 3: Apple down two point eight percent even as they unveil 484 00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:48,399 Speaker 3: well as Mark German unveils that they're going to be 485 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 3: bringing us a whole updated operating system across max iPads 486 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 3: and indeed iPhones come WWDC in June. Not enough to 487 00:22:56,640 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 3: settle some of those worries about the Siri implementation with 488 00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 3: AI and indeed what only what's happening with the Google 489 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:05,399 Speaker 3: DOJ investigation as well? Yesterday it seems as though the 490 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 3: current DOJ in this current administration still looking at. 491 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 2: Stopping any flows of money going from Apple, Google to Apple. 492 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 3: But let's dig into just where the mindset is right now, 493 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,160 Speaker 3: how a CEO is feeling, how HR department's feeling, how's 494 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:18,920 Speaker 3: the labor force. 495 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:21,400 Speaker 2: Sarah Franklin is a person to talk about it. 496 00:23:21,560 --> 00:23:24,960 Speaker 3: That's a CEO where it's bringing artificial intelligence within the 497 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:30,119 Speaker 3: HR spectrum and ultimately helping companies navigate progress within their 498 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:32,679 Speaker 3: business culture, within their business. But right now I have 499 00:23:32,720 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 3: a feeling maybe the AI output is have fewer people. 500 00:23:37,040 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 4: I mean, Caroline, we are in a new economy. It 501 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:44,679 Speaker 4: has transformed from a data economy to an AI economy overnight, 502 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,199 Speaker 4: and you're seeing the questions of like, what does this 503 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:48,960 Speaker 4: mean for my jobs? What does this mean for my people? 504 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 4: What does mean for my business?

You have to say, this is how 562 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:22,240 Speaker 4: you're going to use it, and we want to do 563 00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:24,400 Speaker 4: this in a way that puts the people success as 564 00:26:24,440 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 4: the primary. 565 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:25,760 Speaker 2: Look. 566 00:26:26,119 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 3: I'm going to ask a kind of uncomfortable question with 567 00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:30,840 Speaker 3: two women sitting here at an AI conference and thinking 568 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:34,360 Speaker 3: about who generally is in HL departments, But how will 569 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:37,880 Speaker 3: women adopting it in particular generative AI versus men? How 570 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:39,879 Speaker 3: is it disrupting women more in the workface so the 571 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:43,560 Speaker 3: men or is that just a too basic, simplistic idea. 572 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 4: The truth is we're too early to tell like this 573 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,440 Speaker 4: is all new. What I do love is that it 574 00:26:48,480 --> 00:26:53,719 Speaker 4: is two incredible women here. A big man is that 575 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:56,560 Speaker 4: women have that curiosity, they have the resilience, they have 576 00:26:56,640 --> 00:26:58,879 Speaker 4: the ability to adapt to change and they say, Okay, 577 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:02,239 Speaker 4: this is new, let's bring this in and figure out 578 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:03,960 Speaker 4: how it can help me, how it can help me 579 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,679 Speaker 4: and my team. And having that mindset of how we 580 00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 4: can use this technology to be helpful is the mindset. 581 00:27:10,119 --> 00:27:12,440 Speaker 4: We don't want to just automate people out of work. 582 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:15,439 Speaker 4: We want to bring people into the future that we're creating. 583 00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:18,399 Speaker 4: And this is a massive responsibility that we all share 584 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,640 Speaker 4: because we can't just create technology for technology's sake. 585 00:27:21,880 --> 00:27:23,080 Speaker 2: We have to create it for the. 586 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:25,240 Speaker 4: Better of the world and for the better of business 587 00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 4: and for the better of people. 588 00:27:26,680 --> 00:27:29,359 Speaker 2: That will people be ultimated out of work? Jobs are 589 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:30,080 Speaker 2: going to change. 590 00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:33,399 Speaker 4: It is no question there is a massive reshaping that 591 00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:36,040 Speaker 4: every CEO is on their mind is how do I 592 00:27:36,119 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 4: reshape my business? How do I reshape these career pathways? 593 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 2: How do I put this in there? 594 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 4: And we don't There's so many questions we don't have 595 00:27:43,680 --> 00:27:46,159 Speaker 4: the answers to and why we need courage in the 596 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:50,159 Speaker 4: leadership and we need to be responsible, accountable and transparent. 597 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 2: In the decisions that we're making. 598 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,800 Speaker 4: And that's what Lattice helps all HR leaders do as 599 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 4: they're bringing AI into the workforce. 600 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 3: What about your own talent and bringing people into your 601 00:27:57,320 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 3: own business at the moment, is it rich pickings? Is 602 00:27:59,320 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 3: people we orientate their own businesses. You came from salesforce 603 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 3: and they're busy trying to get rid of some talent 604 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:05,560 Speaker 3: to bring in more AI talent? 605 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:07,400 Speaker 2: Is it face to get hold of the people you need. 606 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,399 Speaker 4: We are hiring at Lattice and we have a great 607 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 4: talent pool that's coming in and we invest in our people. 608 00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:15,520 Speaker 4: And this is something which I'm proud of as a 609 00:28:15,600 --> 00:28:18,600 Speaker 4: CEO that I know that my company trusts me, and 610 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:20,880 Speaker 4: I know that they know that I will be transparent 611 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 4: and accountable to the decisions that we make and yes, 612 00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:27,480 Speaker 4: investing in the people. We need to also as leaders 613 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 4: invest in ourselves. Like we are not immune to this. 614 00:28:30,600 --> 00:28:33,680 Speaker 4: I mean, who's to say that we'll have AI salespeople 615 00:28:33,920 --> 00:28:35,240 Speaker 4: not or AI CEOs. 616 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:36,879 Speaker 2: Who knows what the future will be. 617 00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 4: But we all have to embrace this change, and we 618 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 4: all have to embrace AI in a way that it 619 00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 4: is just a reality. It is in the workforce and 620 00:28:45,560 --> 00:28:48,520 Speaker 4: the question is how do we meet people the primary benefactor? 621 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 3: What about globally speaking, is there as much adoption and 622 00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:56,720 Speaker 3: willingness to bring it into the HR space in Europe, 623 00:28:56,880 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 3: in Asia, is there in the United States. 624 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:01,000 Speaker 2: You know, again it's early days. 625 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 4: What I see is from my vantage point as a 626 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 4: tech CEO, is that the globalization that AI provides us, 627 00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 4: it really helps us to battle the misunderstanding that we 628 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:17,560 Speaker 4: have when language is a barrier, when culture is a barrier. 629 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:21,040 Speaker 4: And that's something that I personally am optimistic about is 630 00:29:21,080 --> 00:29:22,920 Speaker 4: if we can use this technology in a way to 631 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:27,680 Speaker 4: help us collaborate better, remove misunderstanding, understand nuance better. 632 00:29:28,160 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 2: And that's something I'm hopeful that. 633 00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:32,280 Speaker 4: Bringing AI into the workforce, it can help us have 634 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:33,320 Speaker 4: better understanding. 635 00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:35,680 Speaker 3: You've been ranked to one of the falsest growing companies 636 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 3: private companies out that what is holding back growth at 637 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:41,480 Speaker 3: the moment. If you could ask anything of the administration 638 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 3: of the markets, of the environment, what. 639 00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 4: Would it be uncertainty. We are in a very uncertain 640 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:50,520 Speaker 4: time right now. And so the way that we get 641 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 4: everyone together and go to growth is by being very 642 00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:58,480 Speaker 4: certain in our pathway and just qualming the fears that 643 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 4: we are going to eliminate people from all jobs, say 644 00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 4: we are committed to a people powered future and we're 645 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:07,840 Speaker 4: committed to building your success.

We have to know that this 648 00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 4: is going to happen, embrace it, and have the courage 649 00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,480 Speaker 4: and the support of each other to together go into 650 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:22,200 Speaker 4: this future and be responsible, accountable and transparent because trust 651 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 4: is really the currency of the AI economy. 652 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 3: Sarah, it's great to catch up with you here. Great 653 00:30:26,560 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 3: to have a wonderful time at human X, Sarah Franklin. 654 00:30:28,960 --> 00:30:32,040 Speaker 3: That is CEO here in Las Vegas. The music is 655 00:30:32,080 --> 00:30:35,440 Speaker 3: pumping because we've got a mixture of your foia around 656 00:30:35,520 --> 00:30:38,760 Speaker 3: artificial intelligence. We've also got a healthy dose of anxiety 657 00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:42,560 Speaker 3: around these public markets. Andrew Felman joins us now Cerebra CEO, 658 00:30:42,800 --> 00:30:47,520 Speaker 3: who is in the market of updating ultimately access to compute, 659 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:50,040 Speaker 3: but the whole new way of thinking about bringing the 660 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 3: data center to life. 661 00:30:51,280 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 2: Andrew, I ask. 662 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:54,800 Speaker 3: You, in this time where we're worried about an electricity 663 00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:58,400 Speaker 3: state of emergency, you need power for your data centers. 664 00:30:58,440 --> 00:31:00,720 Speaker 3: I know you've got efficient data centres, a whole new 665 00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:03,719 Speaker 3: way of powering that means less power is necessary than 666 00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 3: the usual architecture and GPUs, but does that worry you 667 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 3: an electricity state of an emergency. 668 00:31:08,520 --> 00:31:12,400 Speaker 10: Look, I think as a nation, we've underinvested in our infrastructure, 669 00:31:12,440 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 10: including electricity infrastructure, and AI uses a fair bit of power, 670 00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 10: and even companies like Cerebraus, who have the most efficient 671 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 10: compute in the. 672 00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:25,800 Speaker 5: Market, we use a fair bit of power. 673 00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:30,480 Speaker 10: And so it's not unreasonable that the administration recognizes that 674 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:34,640 Speaker 10: power is fundamental. AI is fundamental, and that they have 675 00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:38,400 Speaker 10: taken some steps to I think, to eliminate some of 676 00:31:38,640 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 10: the red tape. It takes a long time to bring 677 00:31:40,760 --> 00:31:43,320 Speaker 10: up new power plants and to deliver those to new 678 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 10: data centers. 679 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:44,680 Speaker 5: Has it been. 680 00:31:44,560 --> 00:31:46,000 Speaker 2: Holding your growth back on you? 681 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:48,800 Speaker 3: You've just been deploying in places like Oklahoma City in Montreal, 682 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:50,920 Speaker 3: But has the power infrastructure. 683 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 2: Of been an issue? 684 00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 7: Absolutely? 685 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:57,040 Speaker 10: Where these facilities are and how limited and how scarce 686 00:31:57,120 --> 00:32:00,840 Speaker 10: they are is limiting everybody in the day right now. 687 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:04,520 Speaker 10: These are hard to find, they're expensive, they're driving up 688 00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 10: the cost of AI. About half of the cost of 689 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:09,440 Speaker 10: AI is. 690 00:32:09,440 --> 00:32:10,640 Speaker 2: Attributed straight to power. 691 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:13,520 Speaker 10: And so I think if we can do a better 692 00:32:13,600 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 10: job at the infrastructure level than as we provide more 693 00:32:16,600 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 10: compute right across the country, we will benefit from from 694 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:25,440 Speaker 10: AI as its price drops, Well, let's. 695 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 3: Just remind people of your CS three system. Ultimately, this 696 00:32:28,640 --> 00:32:32,040 Speaker 3: is a way of bringing compute in a different way 697 00:32:32,160 --> 00:32:35,800 Speaker 3: with a much smaller surface area ultimately than usual tech 698 00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:37,360 Speaker 3: stack and the usual center GPUs. 699 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:39,920 Speaker 2: How is that selling into this narrative? 700 00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 3: How are you able to distinguish yourselves because you need 701 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:44,840 Speaker 3: less power, because you need less space as well within 702 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:45,480 Speaker 3: a data center. 703 00:32:45,680 --> 00:32:47,720 Speaker 5: That's right, So we chose a very different strategy. 704 00:32:47,840 --> 00:32:52,280 Speaker 10: We chose to build the world's largest chip chip fifty 705 00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 10: six times larger than any previous chip. That meant we 706 00:32:55,440 --> 00:32:58,760 Speaker 10: had to move less information and that allowed us to 707 00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:04,240 Speaker 10: use less energy. And we are a washing demand and yeah, 708 00:33:04,280 --> 00:33:08,160 Speaker 10: we're buried in demand right now. Well, we just announced 709 00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:12,760 Speaker 10: large customers like Hugging Face, like Alpha Sense, like Perplexity, 710 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:18,719 Speaker 10: like Mistral. That remember AI is made with training and 711 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 10: used in inference, and right now everybody wants to use it, 712 00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:27,720 Speaker 10: and so there's tremendous demand for blazing fast, low power 713 00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 10: inference and that's what we're bringing to market right now. 714 00:33:30,520 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 3: Mistral a global player over in France. You have had 715 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:35,520 Speaker 3: a lot of exposure to I mean least and player 716 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:38,800 Speaker 3: G forty two. How are you changing that exposure because 717 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:40,880 Speaker 3: there have been some anxiety too dependent on them as 718 00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:41,400 Speaker 3: a customer. 719 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 10: Well, I think the way you catch three very large 720 00:33:44,840 --> 00:33:47,440 Speaker 10: customers is to begin with one very large customer. And 721 00:33:47,760 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 10: we begin with a strategic partnership with G forty two 722 00:33:51,040 --> 00:33:54,320 Speaker 10: and that's been an extraordinary partnership and they've been everything 723 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:56,640 Speaker 10: we could have hoped for in a partnership. We began 724 00:33:56,680 --> 00:34:01,520 Speaker 10: deploying with them in the US and they through this deployment, 725 00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 10: we proved to the world that we could build some 726 00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:05,959 Speaker 10: of the largest data centers, train some of the largest models, 727 00:34:05,960 --> 00:34:08,160 Speaker 10: and deliver some of the fastest inference in the world. 728 00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 10: And that's opened the door for others, and now we're 729 00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 10: in conversations with the largest players in the world. It's 730 00:34:15,560 --> 00:34:17,799 Speaker 10: that they were a door opener for us and have 731 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:18,880 Speaker 10: been an excellent partner. 732 00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:21,880 Speaker 3: Is that door wide open when you've got such rules 733 00:34:21,880 --> 00:34:24,920 Speaker 3: as the AI diffusion rule, which potentially limits you selling 734 00:34:24,960 --> 00:34:29,040 Speaker 3: into allies as well as so called adversary countries. 735 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:32,360 Speaker 10: Look, we've been a big, big proponent and work closely 736 00:34:32,400 --> 00:34:36,160 Speaker 10: with commerce. That's a confusing rule, to be honest, and 737 00:34:36,920 --> 00:34:39,359 Speaker 10: it's if I understand correctly, it's not quite a rule. 738 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:41,279 Speaker 10: Yet it's a recommendation to be a rule, and it 739 00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:43,919 Speaker 10: will come in in June. I think as a rule, 740 00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:47,920 Speaker 10: I think there are other ways that we could have 741 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:52,960 Speaker 10: achieved the same goals, but we support would commerce. Department 742 00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:54,960 Speaker 10: of Commerce says, and if that's the path, then that's the. 743 00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 2: Playbook we use. 744 00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:56,680 Speaker 3: Think it will be or do you think that they'll 745 00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 3: navigate away all of it? 746 00:34:58,560 --> 00:35:00,879 Speaker 10: My view is, I think we can achieve the same 747 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:04,640 Speaker 10: objectives with slightly less intrusive approach, and I hope they 748 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:09,319 Speaker 10: navigate away. But we weren't asrebrase selling to China long 749 00:35:09,400 --> 00:35:12,080 Speaker 10: before the rules said we couldn't. We thought that was 750 00:35:12,120 --> 00:35:13,960 Speaker 10: the right thing to do, and so we chose to 751 00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:15,880 Speaker 10: follow our ethics. 752 00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,319 Speaker 2: So we will do whatever's right. 753 00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:23,160 Speaker 3: How will you do what Seva's right within these public markets, who, 754 00:35:23,200 --> 00:35:24,920 Speaker 3: of course are eyeing an IPO. 755 00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:26,480 Speaker 2: Is now the right time? 756 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:30,120 Speaker 10: You know? I think there's a lot of things when 757 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:30,760 Speaker 10: you go public. 758 00:35:30,800 --> 00:35:31,640 Speaker 2: You can't control. 759 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:36,160 Speaker 10: You can't control what the president says, you can't control sentiment. 760 00:35:36,440 --> 00:35:38,640 Speaker 10: What you can control is how you run your company 761 00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 10: every day. You can build extraordinary technology. You can treat 762 00:35:42,000 --> 00:35:44,560 Speaker 10: your people well so they want to stay. You can 763 00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:47,160 Speaker 10: hire some of the best people from around the world. 764 00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:50,239 Speaker 10: You can deliver and keep your customers extremely happy. These 765 00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:52,719 Speaker 10: are things we can control, and whether you go out 766 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:55,800 Speaker 10: in a month or a year, those are things I 767 00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:58,560 Speaker 10: think that fall into place if you build an extraordinary business, 768 00:35:58,640 --> 00:35:59,840 Speaker 10: and that's what we can focus. 769 00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:03,040 Speaker 3: You can't control others innovation, we can, and I'm interested 770 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:05,720 Speaker 3: in the innovation that Deep Set brought and the idea 771 00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:08,520 Speaker 3: that maybe we'll have more and more powerful models and less. 772 00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:10,120 Speaker 2: And less in compute need. 773 00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:12,600 Speaker 3: Where do you are we ultimately just going to scale 774 00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:13,359 Speaker 3: the applications. 775 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:17,040 Speaker 10: I I think the h that wasn't exactly what Deep 776 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:20,000 Speaker 10: Deep Seek showed. I I think what deep Sea showed 777 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:24,360 Speaker 10: was that several hundred people and a fair bit of compute, 778 00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:26,319 Speaker 10: maybe less than others had used, but a lot of 779 00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:29,200 Speaker 10: compute could produce a very interesting result in the open 780 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:32,560 Speaker 10: source community. So building on the work of others, right 781 00:36:32,680 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 10: work could be moved forward, innovations added. And I think 782 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:40,680 Speaker 10: that the public markets have almost always taken the wrong 783 00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:43,640 Speaker 10: first step when the cost of compute comes down, right, 784 00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 10: the cost of When the cost of compute comes. 785 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:47,240 Speaker 5: Down, our market grows. 786 00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:50,399 Speaker 10: And it's done that every single time for the last 787 00:36:50,400 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 10: fifty or sixty years, and every single time the public 788 00:36:53,120 --> 00:36:55,799 Speaker 10: markets have thought, oh, the market's getting smaller, but that's 789 00:36:55,880 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 10: not actually what happens when the cost of compute, when 790 00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:02,480 Speaker 10: we can do more for less new applications urgeon. 791 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:05,640 Speaker 5: And this is making the market bigger, not smaller. 792 00:37:06,120 --> 00:37:08,560 Speaker 3: And you'll be there with the offering of influencing compute. 793 00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:12,120 Speaker 3: We will Andrew Fellman cerebra CEO. Delight to have him here, 794 00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:15,880 Speaker 3: Thank you. Now coming up so much more poolside, CEO 795 00:37:16,120 --> 00:37:18,839 Speaker 3: going to be discussing the future of his business as 796 00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:21,520 Speaker 3: he focuses in on coding with generator of AI. Jason 797 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:24,440 Speaker 3: Warner joins us. Now we return to what's happening in 798 00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:26,440 Speaker 3: the nasac and the socks right now. As we know, 799 00:37:26,920 --> 00:37:29,960 Speaker 3: tumult has been upon the tech sector. We're now up 800 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:31,520 Speaker 3: about a tenth of a percent and the Nazak one 801 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:34,320 Speaker 3: hundred after its worst day since twenty twenty two. Yesterday 802 00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:36,880 Speaker 3: we lost almost four percent. We wiped out a trillion 803 00:37:36,880 --> 00:37:39,719 Speaker 3: dollars worth of market cap. We see a slight recovery, 804 00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 3: but still worries there. The semiconductor index down six tenths percent. 805 00:37:43,960 --> 00:38:00,120 Speaker 11: This is of bluembog tenology. 806 00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:05,440 Speaker 3: Welcome back to this special edition of Bloomberg Technology. I'm 807 00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:07,920 Speaker 3: Carin Hyde in Las Vegas. We are live at the 808 00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:11,839 Speaker 3: Human XAI conference, and there is a tone of anxiety 809 00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:14,920 Speaker 3: in the public markets that maybe plays into the private 810 00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:16,640 Speaker 3: sector a little bit when you look at a magnificence 811 00:38:16,640 --> 00:38:19,479 Speaker 3: seven actually managing to be now up a percentage point 812 00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:22,120 Speaker 3: having been in the red in earlier trade. We tried 813 00:38:22,120 --> 00:38:25,880 Speaker 3: to understand what the impact of an energy state of 814 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:28,600 Speaker 3: crisis is for the United States state of emergency, how 815 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:31,239 Speaker 3: that implicates data center demand. We try to understand what 816 00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:34,720 Speaker 3: the latest tariffs on aluminium on metals coming from Canada 817 00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:37,960 Speaker 3: means for broader risk sentiment. But for now some reprieve 818 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:40,720 Speaker 3: after a harsh sell off yesterday as people sold their winners, 819 00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:42,680 Speaker 3: and those winners are twenty twenty three and twenty twenty 820 00:38:42,719 --> 00:38:45,399 Speaker 3: four with the Magnificent seven names. We want to think 821 00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:48,640 Speaker 3: about the impact on the private state and indeed what's 822 00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:49,760 Speaker 3: happening in terms of innovation. 823 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:51,640 Speaker 2: It's not stopping, it's not cooling down. 824 00:38:51,719 --> 00:38:54,800 Speaker 3: Jason Warner is here Pulside CEO of course, previously CTO 825 00:38:54,800 --> 00:38:58,920 Speaker 3: of GitHub, which is now so embodied within the area 826 00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 3: of helping coder is helping engineers. You are building basically 827 00:39:03,040 --> 00:39:04,959 Speaker 3: superintelligence for engineers going forward. 828 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:05,640 Speaker 2: How are you doing that? 829 00:39:06,480 --> 00:39:08,520 Speaker 7: Well, first, great to be here, thanks for having me. 830 00:39:09,239 --> 00:39:12,640 Speaker 7: And yes, we're building towards a human intelligence future where 831 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:15,560 Speaker 7: artificial intelligence the humans live side by side, but artificial 832 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:17,960 Speaker 7: intelligence can do most of the things that humans can do. 833 00:39:18,560 --> 00:39:19,880 Speaker 7: The way in which we do that is we have 834 00:39:19,920 --> 00:39:23,399 Speaker 7: some proprietary research techniques we have dubbed them reinforcement learning 835 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:27,040 Speaker 7: via code execution feedback. But for the lay person, what 836 00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:29,239 Speaker 7: they need to understand is we're just going to give 837 00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:31,759 Speaker 7: them the superpower to write software in the future, and 838 00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:34,239 Speaker 7: anyone who currently knows it will feel like being augmented 839 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:35,080 Speaker 7: by one hundred acts. 840 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:38,920 Speaker 3: Will that displace the number of engineers we need or 841 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,120 Speaker 3: ultimately free them up to do more? How are you 842 00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:43,040 Speaker 3: thinking about augmenting versus replacing? 843 00:39:43,200 --> 00:39:45,839 Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean, I think the conversation of replacement is 844 00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:48,640 Speaker 7: always one that pops up. But I tend to look 845 00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:50,279 Speaker 7: at these things about what we're going to be able 846 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:52,640 Speaker 7: to do more of, what we'll be able to do faster. 847 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:54,839 Speaker 7: And this is where I get excited, because I think 848 00:39:54,840 --> 00:39:58,000 Speaker 7: about what software does currently in twenty twenty five, It 849 00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:01,279 Speaker 7: uderwrates almost the entire economy we have. But if you 850 00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:02,920 Speaker 7: think about what it can do in the future, is 851 00:40:02,920 --> 00:40:05,120 Speaker 7: it could take something that might be five or six 852 00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:07,880 Speaker 7: people months of ten humans to do this, and it 853 00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:10,200 Speaker 7: can reduce that to compute hours. And that's great for 854 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:13,759 Speaker 7: someone like biologist or the physicists or the person doing 855 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:16,080 Speaker 7: cancer research. And this is the thing I think about 856 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:18,800 Speaker 7: compressing human knowledge learning into compute hours. 857 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:23,080 Speaker 3: You're not the only CEO we've recently spoken to who's 858 00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:26,080 Speaker 3: thinking about giving super intelligence and superpowers to an engineer. 859 00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:28,879 Speaker 3: And look, we just have Reflection AI on the store 860 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 3: on the show yesterday. 861 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:31,760 Speaker 2: How is the space? 862 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:34,279 Speaker 3: How is there an awful lot of startups trying to 863 00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:34,759 Speaker 3: do the. 864 00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:35,880 Speaker 2: Same thing or different things. 865 00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:37,880 Speaker 3: Distinguish yourselves from the competition. 866 00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:42,080 Speaker 7: They're all slightly different. The idea here with Poolside is 867 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:44,360 Speaker 7: more akin to open AI and Anthropic in that we 868 00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:47,560 Speaker 7: are going after the thing that we might call AGI 869 00:40:47,640 --> 00:40:51,200 Speaker 7: and eventually ASI. And so what we are at our 870 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:54,560 Speaker 7: heart is a frontier AI company similar to open ai Anthropic, 871 00:40:54,840 --> 00:40:57,120 Speaker 7: and we are pushing the boundaries on that. We're going 872 00:40:57,280 --> 00:40:59,600 Speaker 7: via software For technical reasons, we don't need to get 873 00:40:59,600 --> 00:41:02,279 Speaker 7: into that. It's very technical reasons, and then many other 874 00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:04,200 Speaker 7: folks end up in what I would call the AI 875 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:07,560 Speaker 7: consumer camp. There will be five or six very large 876 00:41:07,920 --> 00:41:12,120 Speaker 7: winners who build out the core infrastructure of artificial intelligence, 877 00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:14,600 Speaker 7: and the rest of the folks will consume the artificial 878 00:41:14,600 --> 00:41:16,000 Speaker 7: intelligence produced by those companies. 879 00:41:16,280 --> 00:41:18,480 Speaker 3: So you see yourself as an infrastructure player. 880 00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:20,600 Speaker 7: Well, I see myself just right next to open AI and. 881 00:41:20,600 --> 00:41:23,920 Speaker 3: Anthropic Okay, do you see yourself as a valuation perspective 882 00:41:24,000 --> 00:41:26,320 Speaker 3: right next to them, because tell us about who you 883 00:41:26,400 --> 00:41:28,160 Speaker 3: are and your funding needs and whether you're out there 884 00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:28,879 Speaker 3: raising money to. 885 00:41:28,840 --> 00:41:32,440 Speaker 7: Do this well. Building artificial intelligence models of the capital 886 00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:35,239 Speaker 7: intensive game though, so at some point we always have 887 00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:38,239 Speaker 7: to consider how much compute capacity we have, and that 888 00:41:38,280 --> 00:41:40,840 Speaker 7: is a proxy for how fast you can go or 889 00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:42,960 Speaker 7: how big you can go. So that's always going to 890 00:41:42,960 --> 00:41:44,640 Speaker 7: be a topic. But right now, we're really happy where 891 00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:45,160 Speaker 7: where we sit. 892 00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:46,160 Speaker 2: So you're not raising money. 893 00:41:46,160 --> 00:41:47,239 Speaker 7: We're not raising money right now. 894 00:41:47,400 --> 00:41:50,719 Speaker 2: What about compute? And is what is holding you back 895 00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:51,120 Speaker 2: right now? 896 00:41:51,200 --> 00:41:54,640 Speaker 3: Is it energy? Infrastructure? Is it electricity? Is it access 897 00:41:54,640 --> 00:41:55,400 Speaker 3: to data centers? 898 00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:55,919 Speaker 2: What is it? 899 00:41:57,480 --> 00:41:59,719 Speaker 7: I would love more time, Yeah, I would love more 900 00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:02,880 Speaker 7: time time for us to go do more experiments But 901 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:04,759 Speaker 7: for the thing that I think about holding us back 902 00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:07,360 Speaker 7: is really where we are in the world. If I 903 00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:09,719 Speaker 7: cannet this out into a different way, which is, if 904 00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:12,200 Speaker 7: we were in a world of infinites infinite access to energy, 905 00:42:12,239 --> 00:42:14,600 Speaker 7: infinite access to compute, and infinite access to data, we 906 00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:17,960 Speaker 7: would be at AGI or ASI already already. But we 907 00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:19,839 Speaker 7: don't have an infinite world. We have a constrained world, 908 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:23,040 Speaker 7: so we must make different choices. So my main choice 909 00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:24,400 Speaker 7: that I have to make is how I spend my 910 00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:26,920 Speaker 7: compute budget. So if you were to ask, my primary 911 00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:28,839 Speaker 7: concern is always access to more compute. 912 00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 2: At the moment, where do you get your compute from? 913 00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:35,600 Speaker 7: We have partnerships across a wide variety of folks, although 914 00:42:35,600 --> 00:42:38,600 Speaker 7: our primary clusters are the Amazon Aws web. 915 00:42:38,440 --> 00:42:40,880 Speaker 2: Services, and is that largely US placed. 916 00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:43,320 Speaker 3: What's interesting about you is perhaps people got you modeled 917 00:42:43,360 --> 00:42:45,040 Speaker 3: up with a French company at one point. I know 918 00:42:45,080 --> 00:42:48,000 Speaker 3: that you had team members. There are US domiciled. Where 919 00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:49,279 Speaker 3: are you thinking about your future? 920 00:42:49,120 --> 00:42:52,200 Speaker 7: We've always we are and always have been a US company, 921 00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:56,200 Speaker 7: though we have a presence in France, we have primarily 922 00:42:56,239 --> 00:42:59,759 Speaker 7: hired our AI researchers across Europe and in the UK. 923 00:43:00,120 --> 00:43:02,440 Speaker 7: And also we have an office in Paris, which the 924 00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:04,360 Speaker 7: entirety it happens to be right now because they're doing 925 00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:06,439 Speaker 7: an on site which we do once a month. 926 00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:10,799 Speaker 3: But we're a US company, US company and wishing for 927 00:43:10,840 --> 00:43:13,720 Speaker 3: more compute alongside a lot of other US companies. Jason 928 00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:16,080 Speaker 3: Warner has been great to have him the poolside CEO, 929 00:43:16,400 --> 00:43:18,800 Speaker 3: keep a track of that company in the private sector. Meanwhile, 930 00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:21,120 Speaker 3: back in the public sector, we are looking at shares 931 00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:23,120 Speaker 3: the NASDAK stocks that. 932 00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:25,160 Speaker 2: Are in the chip sector in VideA as well. A 933 00:43:25,239 --> 00:43:27,600 Speaker 2: very volatile day. We're currently Apple quarter percent and then 934 00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:28,560 Speaker 2: Asset one hundred. 935 00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:30,400 Speaker 3: After a brutal sell off yesterday, the worst that we've 936 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:32,719 Speaker 3: seen since twenty twenty two. Some we can have to 937 00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,000 Speaker 3: index is still underwater by some four tenths percent. Remember 938 00:43:35,040 --> 00:43:36,840 Speaker 3: Oracle numbers as well, perhaps giving a bit of a 939 00:43:36,920 --> 00:43:40,399 Speaker 3: dampling spirit to ultimately the demand for AI and how 940 00:43:40,480 --> 00:43:43,640 Speaker 3: quickly we can get data centers on track. Interestingly, they're 941 00:43:43,640 --> 00:43:45,920 Speaker 3: still pointing towards fifteen to twenty percent revenue growth for 942 00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:48,840 Speaker 3: the next fiscal years, so pointing that really the demand 943 00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:51,960 Speaker 3: still remains insatiable when it comes to infrastructure. But thus 944 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:54,080 Speaker 3: why it didn't live up to expectations in video, though, 945 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:57,400 Speaker 3: rebounding two point six percent after it's lost more than 946 00:43:57,440 --> 00:44:01,040 Speaker 3: a trillion dollars from its market capt. 947 00:44:00,160 --> 00:44:01,120 Speaker 2: Couple of months. 948 00:44:01,440 --> 00:44:04,080 Speaker 3: Now, that does it for this edition of Bloomberg Technology
