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. 😂

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.

Buffett’s answer eulogized Charlie and sprinkled fabulous life advice throughout. “[Charlie and I] never had any doubts about the other. person.“ Listen all the way - Warren ends it epically. ❤️

Warren Buffett predicted: “Ownership by the rest of the world, of [the US], would be seen as a form of taxation 20 years from now by the people who reside here.” 👀

“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.

“Inside Google, I have 100 GPUs. But Google will give me 1,000 GPUs if I leave.” - Emad 🤔 On the Moonshots pod, Emad and Dr. Alex Wissner-Gross say Google should: A) Open-source Gemini, tying it to TPU and GCP compute, to dominate the stack; and B) Become the biggest VC fund in the world and “unlock their geniuses”: programmatically let great employees leave but take a stake in their startups, encouraging them to build on GCP. Crazy like a fox?
