AI Just Solved an 80-Year-Old Math Problem — Plus Google I/O, Karpathy Joins Anthropic | EP 45


Listen Later

In Episode 45, Pierson and Bilal cover the week that changed a few things — Google I/O delivered a mixed bag, Karpathy walked into Anthropic, and OpenAI's model autonomously cracked an 80-year-old math problem nobody saw coming.

From there:

  • Google Flash 3.5 came in 3x more expensive — and Omni didn't beat Cdance 2
  • Why Gavin Baker's chip bet on Google losing cost efficiency played out exactly right
  • SpaceX IPO, the Cursor deal & who files first — OpenAI or Anthropic
  • Karpathy joins Anthropic — and what he's actually going there to do
  • Meta and Cloudflare layoffs — the displacement wave is already here
  • Corporations becoming governments, SpaceX militias & the return of local economies
