What’s really happening inside the AI industry right now?
The common story is that Meta, OpenAI, and Anthropic are still racing to build the smartest model. The real story is who controls compute, distribution, and political permission.
In this video, I share the inside scoop on why the old model-first scoreboard is being replaced:
– Why Meta’s gaming app and its new cloud business are the same strategy
– How OpenAI’s proposed 5% government stake changes the game
– What Jersey Mike’s AI-heavy IPO filing reveals about cheap capital
– Where Anthropic’s enterprise bet fits into the new scoreboard
The opportunity is that AI capability keeps compounding no matter who wins the model race, but the risk is building your strategy around a scoreboard that no longer decides who actually captures the value.
