Ilya Sutskever – We're moving from the age of scaling to the age of research

Microsoft Corporation develops and supports software, services, devices, and solutions worldwide.

Combines cloud, enterprise distribution, and AI product integration via Azure and Copilot.

Alphabet Inc.

Deep AI research bench, TPU infrastructure, and broad consumer/enterprise distribution align with a research-led AI cycle.

Meta Platforms, Inc.

Strong AI research and distribution; benefits are less direct because monetization depends on ads, engagement, and open-source strategy.

Amazon.com, Inc.

AWS should benefit from AI workload demand, but Amazon’s model research position is less visibly dominant than Microsoft/OpenAI or Google.

Lecture-level geopolitical framework (continental land powers vs maritime trading powers) with a brief mention of Russia/Putin targeting global agriculture. Mostly conceptual; only loosely translatable into trades via second-order implications (defense spending, supply-chain resilience, agriculture/food security).

Podcast description discussing economics of AGI: taxation/redistribution of AI-generated wealth, how non–AI-supply-chain countries share gains, and whether inequality explodes. Contains sponsor mentions (Jane Street recruiting; Google Gemini). No concrete near-term catalysts or company-specific fundamentals in the text.

The provided source contains only a title (“How do AI chips actually work? – Reiner Pope”) with no substantive body text. There are no details on companies, products, demand drivers, competitive dynamics, or time-bound catalysts that could be translated into a tradable thesis.

What rebuilding AlphaGo teaches us about self-play, RL, and future of LLMs - Eric Jang Eric Jang walks through how to build AlphaGo from scratch, but with modern AI tools. Sometimes you understand the future better by stepping backward. AlphaGo is still the cleanest worked example of the primitives of intelligence: search, learning from experience, and self-play. You have to go back to 2017 to get insight into how the more general AIs of the future might learn. Once he explained how AlphaGo works, it gave us the context to have a discussion about how RL works in LLMs and how it could work better – naive policy gradient RL has to figure out which of the 100k+ tokens in your trajectory actually got you the right answer, while AlphaGo’s MCTS suggests a strictly better action every single move, giving you a training target that sidesteps the credit assignment problem. The way humans learn is surely closer to the second. Eric also kickstarted an Autoresearch loop on his project. And it was very interesting to discuss which parts of AI research LLMs can already automate pretty well (implementing and running experiments, optimizing hyperparameters) and which they still struggle with (choo

The entry is a teaser about a conversation with Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang focused on whether Nvidia’s AI-chip moat will persist, including: (1) competition from Google TPUs / hyperscaler accelerators, (2) Nvidia’s leverage/position in an increasingly bottlenecked advanced-chip supply chain, and (3) policy/geopolitics around selling AI chips to China. No specific new quantitative disclosures, commitments, or guidance changes are provided in the excerpt.
