Aidan Gomez (Aidan Gomez) is a computer scientist, co-author of the seminal paper ‘Attention Is All You Need,’ and the CEO of Cohere. In this episode, we discussed his upbringing in the cabin his grandfather built in Codrington, a small town North of Brighton, and the values that were instilled in him through his family. We explored his path from Codrington to his undergraduate studies at the University of Toronto, emailing Geoffrey Hinton, and joining Google Brain where he co-wrote the paper on transformers. We discussed how he met his co-founders Ivan Zhang and Nick Frosst, and his insights on what it means to build a meaningful, successful company in Canada. Aidan shares his conviction about what is at stake — for Canada and for the world at large. This is a conversation about family, values, and what it means to live with conviction. The Other Stuff is hosted by internetVin — filmmaker, entrepreneur, and possibly the most curious man on Earth. Produced by New.

New episode with the incredible former PepsiCo CEO Indra Nooyi - the first woman of color and immigrant to run a Fortune 50 company. In this conversation, Indra discusses the stories behind her rise to the top of one of the world's largest companies. From early days at the Boston Consulting Group using satellite photos to analyze competitor facilities, to personally tracking 400 potential executives as CEO, Indra reveals the granular thinking that separates great leaders from good ones. Her "zoom in, zoom out" philosophy transformed how she understood business — from the "right side of the decimal" where even a fraction of a penny matters across millions of transactions, to setting company strategy at 30,000 feet. She explains why most leaders fail because they don't understand their business at the most granular level. But perhaps most powerful is her candid discussion about the reality of being a working mother in the C-suite where she argues there is no such thing as work-life balance. Watch now for a masterclass in leadership, strategy, and the sacrifices required to reach the top.

Alex Behring and Daniel Schwartz have almost never spoken publicly about how 3G Capital invests and operates. The firm is different in many fascinating ways. Every fund they raise is designed to make exactly one investment. They invest more of their own money than any of their limited partners in every deal and send their own people to run the businesses as CEOs and CFOs. Over 20 years they have never lost money on a deal. The conversation includes the story of how they spent 15 years building a relationship with the founding family of Hunter Douglas before getting the opportunity to buy it. They describe receiving a two line rejection email from Tim Hortons after weeks of silence and how they managed to get back to the table and close the deal. They talk about how they bought Burger King for a billion dollars when no other firm showed up to compete. And they explain why Skechers being the third largest sneaker company in the world surprised even them. A major theme is how they develop talent. Daniel was an analyst who became CFO at 26 and CEO of Burger King at 32. Alex became CEO of the largest railroad in Latin America when he was 30. They explain what they look for in young people, why they give them significant responsibility faster than anywhere else, and what it takes to set them up to succeed while holding an unusually high bar. Daniel and Alex are two of the most talented and intense people I know. They are incredibly serious about business quality and disciplined about waiting for the right opportunity. They would rather do nothing than compromise. Enjoy!

Today I walk with Laura 🌲 ⛰️, co-founder of Until, a cryopreservation company in San Francisco. Laura got interested in longevity at eight, started working in Cynthia Kenyon's lab at UCSF at 12, and spent years backing the field as an investor through the Longevity Fund. She now builds technology to pause biological time, starting with donor organs and building toward whole-body medical hibernation. We get into: - The conference talk she was not supposed to give, and how it ended her VC chapter - What "transcend death" actually means once you press on it, tested with a teleporter to Mars - Why San Francisco kills intuition, and the breakdown in her mid-20s that made her protect hers - The big magnet, and rewarming an organ in about a minute - Why transplant patients live inside a two-hour radius with a pager on them at all times so much more! Timestamps 00:00 Trailer 00:48 Intro 01:35 "I love science" and the things that have stayed constant 05:13 A childhood without rules and reconstructing what normal means 07:03 What is actually worth preserving when a person dies 13:00 The Dreaming Machine and the film that never got made 19:02 When you could not say the word aging out loud in the lab 22:55 Emailing Cynthia Kenyon at 12 and the day her life started 28:49 The talk that made her leave VC for cryo 32:39 San Francisco as an intuition killer 35:04 Molecules in clockwork synchrony and feeling loved by the universe 44:39 The big magnet and rewarming an organ in about a minute 46:19 The two-hour radius and the pager that runs a transplant patient's life 53:50 Her best arguments against her own work 58:44 The teleporter to Mars and what dies in the process 1:01:42 Outro Link in comments!
