Today, we have a special episode with Rob Toews, Partner at Radical Ventures, a VC firm focused on AI. He is also a contributor to Forbes, where he writes about the big picture in AI, and recently spoke at the Ted AI conference. Rob is a good friend whom I talk to a lot about the shifting AI landscape. And given how dynamic 2023 has been in the world of AI, I thought it would be a good way to wrap up the year by talking about some of the key trends in 2023 and some predictions for 2024. Enjoy!

On this episode, Rob joins Pauline to discuss trends of AI startup funding, open vs. closed source model companies + their business models, longevity of Transformers architecture, and his predictions for GPU shortage and regulation in 2024.
