AI Won't Win Nobel Prizes, Says Hugging Face Founder, Contradicting The Hype.
Introduction:
In this episode, we dive deep into some of the most compelling stories shaping the future of technology and finance. First, Thomas Wolf, co-founder of Hugging Face, challenges the prevailing optimism in Silicon Valley by arguing that current AI models, including those from OpenAI, are unlikely to deliver Nobel Prize-level scientific breakthroughs. He highlights a fundamental limitation: AI’s focus on predicting the "most likely next word" rather than disrupting existing scientific paradigms. Next, we explore Microsoft’s bold strategic pivot as CTO Kevin Scott reveals plans to develop custom AI chips, aiming to reduce dependence on Nvidia and AMD amid a growing compute capacity crunch. We then turn to Robinhood CEO Vlad Tenev’s prediction of unstoppable asset tokenization transforming global finance, with Europe leading the charge while the U.S. lags behind. Following that, we analyze the surge in South Korean chipmakers SK Hynix and Samsung after partnering with OpenAI on the $500 billion Stargate project, a move intensifying the race for high-bandwidth memory chips critical to AI development. Finally, we break down Elon Musk’s milestone of becoming the first individual with a net worth over $500 billion, fueled by investor confidence in Tesla’s AI and robotics ambitions—and what this means for innovation and corporate leadership going forward.
