back in 2017 i was interning as an equities analyst at a fund in nyc, which had a 9am morning call every weekday. the purpose of this call was to discuss quarterly earnings or current events or whether we should be buying nvidia (at the time, on a tear because of the '17 crypto boom), but one morning in june the call opened with a bunch of people freaking out because some guy named "travis" had resigned. after a couple of rounds of "travis is gone" "did they fire him" "bloomberg says he resigned," i was especially confused because the firm had a portfolio manager named travis, and i looked over at his desk and he was still sitting there, not being escorted out by security or anything. who was travis? it was only after things had calmed down that i realized the people on this call were talking about *travis kalanick* of uber, a figure who loomed so large in the minds of wall street investors that even *two years before* uber ipo-ed, the news of his departure was treated like a six sigma event. everyone wanted to know: if travis was gone, what would happen to his company? even in his uber days, travis was the bits and atoms guy (watch the video clipped in the first ~2 minutes of the below podcast for proof of that). and in order to be a bits and atoms guy - as in, the kind of guy who's so discontent with the slow, staid, schlerotic state of things that he has to painstakingly reorchestrate the physical world with computers, perhaps pissing off some powerful interests along the way - some people might call you difficult. some people will not understand your vision. some people will try to get you fired. but if you're a bits and atoms guy, you never stop being one. you might retreat into near-obscurity, or spend years wandering in the wilderness, biding your time in exile. but you will not stop building. and one day you will return triumphant like a modern-day charles de gaulle, even better than ever, and ready to prove wrong everyone who didn't understand the first time around. being in a room with travis leaves you pretty pumped up. you can see why he's such a rallying leader, and why (by my count) at least six top uber execs have chosen to follow him to his new company, atoms. it isn't simply that the job isn't finished (although that's a big part of it, as travis attests). it's also because it's clear that there are very few leaders like travis out there: people who have such a holistic worldview that they can get people who would otherwise be founders themselves to join the ride and help build an extremely specific vision for the future. here are some things that stood out to me from this event: -travis is a branding/comms mastermind. he deploys memorable phrases like “food computer,” “wheelbase for robots,” “atoms as bits” and describes his vision for cheap meal delivery as "autonomous burritos." you can see why people get excited for his vision for the future. there's extraordinary complexity in what atoms is trying to do, but travis makes each step along the way feel manageable because he can distill these ideas into extremely concrete images. -atoms is building full-stack autonomation for three different divisions: food, mining, and transportation. food supplies the real estate, software, robotics, and logistics laboratory; mining supplies a commercially deployed autonomy business; and transport is intended to become the reusable movement platform connecting multiple physical industries. travis argues humanoids make sense for diverse, low-volume work in spaces designed for people. but at industrial scale (which atoms is doing), purpose-built machines should win on throughput, space, cost, and reliability. -the best way to get over your last company may be the same as the best way to get over your ex: fall in love again. travis says anger and fear of failure can carry a founder through years of pain, but they also produce long nights where very little gets done and sharp elbows felt by everyone around you. atoms is what happened when he learned to build toward a future rather than against an enemy. -doing hard things is a reminder you can do more hard things. in the q&a ben remembers travis describing attacks by chinese ride-sharing companies as proof that, if he could survive china, the rest of the world would be manageable. travis still deliberately creates problems when things become easy. but the rate of problem creation cannot exceed the organization’s rate of problem-solving. such a fun talk and q+a with travis kalanick benahorowitz.eth Erik Torenberg ! check it out.

Through Technology, a Centuries-Old Battle Is Coming to a Head "A Discussion of Open-Source AI with Travis Oliphant" Travis Oliphant Travis Oliphant is an entrepreneur and CEO and co founder of OpenTeams (OpenTeams®), a company that “helps organizations deploy, support, and own [AI] technology at enterprise scale.” One of their tag lines is “Connecting Companies with Communities.” As a data scientist and software developer, Travis is known for his contributions to Python and as the creator of NumPy and a founding contributor to SciPy, which together formed a foundation for modern AI and machine learning. When I was in Salt Lake City in the first week of June, Travis and I went into a studio to record this interview, continuing a conversation we had started when Travis and his team visited the Solari team in the Netherlands in early 2026. Our discussion focuses on how we can understand and manage the growing presence of AI in our lives. Travis has an impressive intellectual and entrepreneurial background. After earning Bachelor and Master of Science degrees in mathematics and electrical engineering at Brigham Young University, he completed a PhD in biomedical engineering at the Mayo Clinic. As an assistant professor at Brigham Young’s Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering from 2001 to 2007, he directed the Biomedical Imaging Lab, where his research centered on computational imaging techniques. He then went on to start several companies, each time identifying the need for a new standard, building the open-source infrastructure, and helping enterprises adopt it at scale. Brilliant, open-minded, deeply caring, and generous, Travis is someone who can help us understand what is happening and what we do about it. My hope is this will be the first of many conversations as we navigate the acceleration in technological innovation (and skullduggery) and seek to ensure that tools such as AI serve the health and prosperity of a human civilization.
