One man could slow down AI. He won’t. Why?
2026-10-16
A look at Jensen Huang’s life story and his position at the center of the AI race. The episode examines why he believes AI is safe despite being one of the people with the greatest ability to slow its development, and whether that stance reflects conviction, insulation, or salesmanship.

The Race to Recursive Self-Improving AI
2026-10-12
a16z General Partner Martin Casado interviews MakerMaker.AI co-founders Dhaval Adjodah and Owen He about the concept of recursive self-improvement (RSI) in AI. The conversation distinguishes true RSI from AI-assisted development, explores the technical architecture of closed-loop improvement systems across the AI stack, and discusses the challenges of measuring genuine progress, such as accounting for efficiency gains versus resource consumption. They also address technical hurdles like variance and reward hacking in self-improving systems.
Podcast Takeaways
MakerMaker is running the efficiency problem on live NVIDIA hardware
a16z general partner Martin Casado interviewed MakerMaker co-founders Daval Ajada and Owen He about recursive self-improvement. MakerMaker's commercial target is inference: making it cheaper to serve the newest open-weight models, with Kimi K3 as the example. They define real self-improvement narrowly. Humans using AI tools to build better AI is ordinary automation. Their bar is a closed loop in which the system being improved also does the improving, across prompts, the harness, model weights, and eventually chips. Their test has two parts. The numerator is capability. The denominator is the…

Beam: The Great American Open Model with ReflectionAI Co-Founder and CEO Misha Laskin
2026-10-09
ReflectionAI co-founder and CEO Misha Laskin joins hosts Sarah Guo and Elad Gil to discuss the launch of Beam, a 500-billion parameter open-weight reasoning model. The conversation covers the technical requirements for training, the broader industry shift in enterprise compute from renting to owning infrastructure, and the potential for open models to dominate global token demand. Laskin also addresses the competitive landscape, including the open-source ecosystem in China, safety considerations, and the critical role of data centers and compute capacity in accelerating scientific discovery.
Podcast Takeaways
Reflection trained a frontier open model on thousands of NVIDIA GB300s, and spent more compute on reinforcement learning than on pre-training
Misha Laskin, co-founder and CEO of Reflection AI and a former DeepMind researcher, says the company's first open model, Beam, is a 500B-parameter mixture-of-experts model with 23B active parameters, built for coding and agentic work. Beam's pre-training ran on 6,000 GB300s. The original run took a few weeks; with infrastructure improvements Reflection can now do it in about 12 days. Reinforcement learning used a little over 10,000 GB300s for four weeks, and Laskin says that job consumed more FLOPs than pre-training. He has not seen another documented open-source run at 10,000 GB300s for four…

Nvidia Is Reinventing the PC
2026-10-09
The Daily AI Show hosts discuss recent advancements in local AI, including speaker identification systems, AI-assisted coding tools, and new business video models. The episode concludes with a discussion on the integration of NVIDIA and Microsoft’s RTX Spark technology into Windows PCs, which the hosts argue signals a fundamental redesign of the computer to prioritize local AI compute and sandboxing for AI agents.
Podcast Takeaways
Apple Silicon is still the default local-AI machine, which is the backdrop for the NVIDIA-Microsoft PC move
Daily AI Show co-host Andy says many local-AI apps are still built for Apple Silicon or macOS only. Google’s new on-device note-taking app uses a 740-million-parameter Embedding Gemma 2 model optimized for Macs, and the ChatGPT desktop app runs on his M4 Pro but not on his Intel iMac. That is the setup for the NVIDIA news he flagged: Windows PCs have been the laggard, and Macs are “really the system of choice for AI at this point in time.” NVIDIA and Microsoft are bringing Spark-class local AI to Windows, with a built-in agent sandbox Andy says NVIDIA and Microsoft just announced they will…
