Silicon Valley’s Chaos Moment

Watch this video on YouTube ↗
As Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has fallen this week—shaking the American economy, which AI helps hold together—Anthropic prepares for an IPO at an expected valuation of up to $1.4 trillion. In this episode, “Galaxy Brain” host Charlie Warzel talks about Huang’s resignation, and the danger of having such a figure bear the weight of our economy. Then he talks to the Vox reporter Sigal Samuel about Anthropic, how the AI race has influenced its ideology, and why it and other companies refuse to slow down or stop.
