The AI Arms Race, Pelosi Act, BMW’s Robotics Shift & Apple’s Comeback?
This week on Built 2 Scale, Scott returns jet-lagged from Texas while Matt battles a fresh Mac-switch identity crisis—yet somehow they still squeeze in everything from congressional insider-trading memes to humanoids doing side-flips. The duo dissects BMW’s surprise deal with China’s DeepSeek, Figure AI’s “three-robot” lawsuit, and Apple’s quiet robotics pivot. Plus: how to turn ChatGPT notes into a walk-and-learn podcast, spin up a five-minute AI phone agent, and why Sam Altman really wants to be the Apple of AI. If you’ve ever wondered when your watch, fridge, and driveway gardener will start talking back, this is the episode.
Topics- Pelosi Act & the “Pelosi Tracker” loophole – will Congress finally lose its favorite side hustle?
- BMW × DeepSeek LLM – China’s vertical-integration flex and what 29 % of BMW sales reveal
- Figure AI vs BMW – $40 B valuation, “only three robots,” and the spicy lawsuit that followed
- Apple’s robotics reboot – what moving the entire org into the product team really signals
- Intelligence Explosion – Zuckerberg’s recursive-AI thought experiment (and why it scares Scott)
- OpenAI’s consumer land-grab – WhatsApp, one-click shopping, and Sam’s bid to be the “Apple of AI”
- Tool Hacks
- NotebookLM → instant podcast workflow
- Blend AI phone agents for trades & SMBs
- HumorPrompts + GPT-O3 voice mode to kill “sycophant” answers
- Lovable’s one-prompt website builder (Scott did it mid-treadmill)
- Robot Rundown
- Apple’s iPad-on-wheels concept & smart-home arms
- Neuralink surgeries now robot-assisted
- Unitree G1 side-flip demo & DJI’s manufacturing edge
- Why capturing your SOPs today protects your craft in a robot tomorrow
