Ben Affleck also went off on AI in Hollywood: ▫️LLM fim script outputs are mid (“by its nature, [the models go] to the mean, the average”) ▫️but they are useful tools for research ▫️doesn’t think it’ll ever make a film whole cloth ▫️it’s a tool just like VFX and will be useful to save money to create certain background settings (which already happens with CGI) ▫️guilds already protect human actors from being totally erased from certain films ▫️there’s also laws in place to protect name and likeness ▫️says most new technologies take time to disperse through society ▫️thinks fearmongering of “all the jobs are going to be taken” is the AI labs hyping for fundraising (“they need to justify valuation around companies…they need to ascribe a valuation for investment for the CAPEX spend they will make on data centres”)

Sergey Brin says retiring in January 2020 was the “worst decision”. He planned to sit at cafes and read about physics all day but started “spiralling”. So, he went back to Google’s office to work with the Gemini team and says “the technical, creative output was very rewarding.”

James Cameron says an opportunity with AI is to make more blockbuster films by cutting “in half” the cost of computer-generated graphics. For him, cost-saving isn’t about “laying off VFX staff” but about “doubling their speed to completion on a given shot.” With AI integrated into VFX workflows, Cameron told Meta’s CTO Andrew Bosworth in April 2025 that the “cadence [can be] faster and your throughput cycle is faster and artists get to move on and do other cool things.” Cameron joined the board of Stability AI to learn new generative AI tools and figure out how Hollywood can adopt the technology (he obviosuly previously pioneered VFX with The Abyss, Terminator, Avatar and Titanic).

CNBC has interesting vid on Waymo’s new autonomous EV minivan (Ojai). Original Jaguar I-PACE fleet costs $200k per vehicle to adapt for autonomy. Ojai purpose-built with Chinese EV firm Zeekr and each one costs at least half as much ($75k-$100k), even after tariffs. Despite having 42% fewer sensors on Ojai (13 cameras/4 Lidars) vs. Jaguar I-PACE (29 cameras/5 Lidars), Ojai performs better because it’s designed from ground up. Ojai also more mass-manufacturer friendly (read: cheaper parts) compared to more luxury Jaguar. Waymo plans to have 1,000 Ojai on roads by year end (100 out right now testing in LA, SF and Phoenix). *** More from CNBC:

Marc Andreesen explains Elon’s management approach: 1. Engineer-first organizations and find truth by speaking with those working on the floor (avoid management layers). 2. Every week, find the most important bottleneck at a company and parachute in to fix it. 3. Keep model of all engineering and business moving parts in his head (obviosuly, not many can do this). 4. Create cult of personality in and outside of the company (continually drive attention, without marketing or PR).

In 2009, Charlie Rose asked Jensen Huang about Nvidia vs. Intel. The chipmakers weren’t directly competing but Jensen said GPU vs. CPU was a “battle for the soul” of computing and GPUs would be “more relevant” in time. Intel was worth $100B and Nvidia was at $4B. Today, Intel is at $565B while Nvidia is worth over 1,200x more at $5 trillion.

Demis Hassabis on why world models are his longest standing passion and the benefits vs. language models: ▫️ “I think language models are able to understand a lot about the world. More than we expected because language is actually probably richer than we thought. But there's still a lot about the spatial dynamics of the world, spatial awareness and the physical context we're in — and how that works mechanically — that is hard to describe in words and isn't generally described in corpuses of words. Alot of this is allied to learning from experience. There's a lot of things which you can't really describe something. You have to just experience it. Maybe the senses and so on are very hard to put into words. Whether that's motor angles and smell and these kinds of senses, it's very difficult to describe that in any kind of language.”▫️ *** From the Google DeepMind podcast in December 2025.

Demis Hassabis recommendation for college students. He’s still do STEM, math and computer science. Expertise in those fields will help better leverage AI for at least next decade. Those in non-techical majors, really “lean in to” using latest models. AI labs spending so much time creating new models that they’ve only “scratched the surface” of what the models can actually do (huge “capability overhang”). And expertise in any field can be turbocharged by smart use of AI. “Double down on your own agency. The future is still to be written. Don’t listen to anyone that says it’s not.”

Evan Spiegel talks Snap Spectales vs. Meta Raybans. Feels a vertically-integrated approach targeting higher end (eg. Tesla with Roadster, Apple with iPhone) is the move for smart glasses. Also, says brand association is risky for Luxxotica: “I think it’s much more harmful for Luxottica than it is for Meta. I think Meta needed to partner with Luxottica because the Meta brand…is not something that people want to put anywhere near their face. So, I think that Meta really needed [them]. I think what’s challenging for Luxottica is they took the most iconic, crazy high-margin product and they destroyed the margin and then they associated it with Meta. So I think we’ll see if that pans out over a longer period of time, if that was the right brand choice for them. But I can definitely see why Meta needed to camouflage their brand, which I think a lot of people don’t resonate with and don’t like, with the Ray-Ban brand. But I think people are misreading the dynamic of what’s happening when you have Meta Ray-Bans on the shelf next to a regular pair of Ray-Bans and they’re both about the same price.” *** Full interview with David Senra here:

Satya Nadella talks about Microsoft’s new AI strategy. Asks “if you’re [only] a consumer of foundation models…how can you create enterprise value?” In his view, companies should combine their internal IP and tacit knowledge with an AI “hill-climbing machine” (reinforcement learning, custom evals) that is model agnostic. Obviously, he positions Microsoft as a partner because they have already gone through that process (namely by diversifying AI efforts away from only OpenAI). “We built a multi-tenant SaaS application,” Nadella says. “We can turn that into a multi-tenant hill climbing service where the data and the environment and the models and the traces and the outcomes are owned by the company.”

Jeff Bezos believes that AI is an “industrial bubble”, which means every type of company or experiment — good idea or bad idea — will get funded. Even if investors don’t make money, AI is very “real” and “will change every industry”. He cites biotech bubble in 1990s: investors as whole lost money but society gained a number of life-saving drugs (similarly, the telecom bubble resulted in a massive cable buildout we still use).
