Apparently, if you ask Sam Altman how his $13 billion money-losing for profit not-for-profit can support $1.4 TRILLION of spend commitments, he gets very defensive and starts to attack non-existent short sellers. I cannot wait for OpenAI to be a public company.

30 minutes after Sam shutdown Brad’s question about, “can you actually afford $1.4 TRILLION of spend,” Sam dropped off the pod. The VERY FIRST thing Brad did w/ Satya after Sam left was return to the topic, defend his question, & reiterate he’s a buyer, not a seller, of OAI. 😂

Tremendous clip about Dario’s reaction when he realized he invented a God: 🔥 “I was super freaked out... I said, ‘My God, you just scale this thing up by another factor of a million and it will be better than humans at everything.’ - Upon witnessing GPT-2 responding to scaling laws (more data = better model) in 2019 We also learn Dario and Daniela hold grudges (watch to the end): “We remember…” Upon witnessing GPT-2’s generalizability across domains, where it wasn’t yet great at anything but it was capable at many things: “This is the defining economic and scientific moment of the modern age. This is going to determine the fate of nations…and the future of humanity. “It really scared me. And maybe 10% of the people around me had exactly the same reaction, and it was often the smartest ones.”

I gotta give Elon credit, he leaves no man behind in his ride-or-die crew: • Saved his Twitter co-investors by merging them into xAI at a ridiculous valuation • Saved his xAI investors by merging them into SpaceX at ridiculous valuation • Talking about saving his Tesla investors by merging them into SpaceX • Working to save his $SPCX investors by claiming he’ll soon have 100,000 satellites, 20 GW of power and cooling next year(!), a nationwide DTC mobile service, new bigger rockets, and closing in on $1 TRILLION of run-rate revenue in 15 months All that gets you a whopping 6% pop in the stock. lol But if you are on the Elon ride-or-die crew, a chunk of $SPCX lockups come off and you can keep unloading those bags.💰 No man left behind. Props. 🫡

Who’s going to tell him? Chamath Palihapitiya claims his AI software dev company, 8090, has been evaluated by “all the big, major” PE firms and their portcos. Precisely ZERO have hired 8090. He says this is because those are “B and C companies” run by “C and D players.” He literally says, “it’s not us, it’s them.” Bold strategy, Cotton.

“Your job is to say ‘no.’” - Ajit Jain, $BRK’s insurance chief “It is very difficult to recruit people to sit back and do nothing. “You will get bombarded with deals, day in and day out. Your base case is, ‘just say no.’ “Every now and then, you will come across a deal that will hit you with a 2x4 and it will be screaming money. “That’s when you come to me.” Ajit and Greg note that insurance, investing, and capital allocation all share this trait. Personally, I am not worried that Berkshire will lack wisdom or lose its way - I look forward to seeing what comes next.

🔥 Shots fired 🔥 “If it makes a difference to you whether your stocks are down 15%, you need to get a somewhat different investment philosophy… “The world is not going to adapt to you. You are going to have to adapt to the world.” “What has happened in the last 45 days is really nothing…this has not been dramatic… “There’s been three times since we acquired Berkshire that Berkshire has gone down 50%. Nothing was fundamentally wrong with the company at any time.” - Warren Buffett on investment psychology at $BRK AGM 2025
