Uber Blew Through Its AI Budget in Four Months


Listen Later

Uber's internal AI spending cap lasted just four months before employees blew through it. Lucas and Luna unpack what that tells us about enterprise AI adoption in mid-2026 — the tension between bottom-up experimentation and top-down cost control, why GPU access drives overspend, and how other companies are struggling to keep AI budgets from becoming black holes. They also tie in Broadcom's 13% weekly jump and Palantir's 15% surge as evidence the market still rewards AI infrastructure plays, even as the cost wall becomes real. Plus, a look at Microsoft's new Scout assistant and what it means for the personal AI race.
