“There's basically nobody who is data center pilled anymore. Abbott is the closest thing to it, the last man standing, and even he has been flinching for months, with these moratoria and 'we should do a little more environmental.' No one is going into the election saying 'I'm into data centers.'” — Joe Weisenthal, TBPN

“Part of the reason people haven't cracked autonomous multi-agent teams is that it's kind of all the same agent in many cases. If you gathered 100 PhDs in a room and told them to go accumulate customers, it might actually work, but not if it was 100 of the exact same PhD. You sort of need a Thunderdome, to make them battle it out with genuinely different points of view.” — Joe Weisenthal, TBPN

“We had an oceanfront property in Palm Beach on the island. The owner had paid $45,000,000 for it. My client offered him a $125,000,000 to move, and the seller told me to, oh, fuck myself. Not because he was angry. He said, where do I go?” — Ryan Serhant, TBPN

“The reality is AI mode does not drive traffic. … Used to be a traffic driver. Now it's not. People still want Reddit. It's just Google is not sending them to Reddit the way they used to.” — John Coogan, TBPN

“I still think it's underrated that internet banking is probably a thing that we're going to live to see the end of. I could really imagine a world where you have to go to the bank to get dollars out again, just because it's too easy to clone your voice.” — Will Manidis, TBPN

“If you take the Epoch AI scaling curve seriously, which I think we should, these models are going to get so expensive that it gets to a point where there's only kind of one or two states that can continue to maintain a sovereign frontier. … What I think is a really obvious idea is that you will not soon be able to buy the best models, that labs will become something much closer to the defense industrial complex, that they will have models that are available to nation states for national security purposes. You will not be using them.” — Will Manidis, TBPN

“It seems like a bozo model can probably hack your infrastructure. It doesn't really take much. I think the bar is surprisingly low. … It's kind of like a drone, you know, like it costs, you know, a hundred bucks to fly the drone into the tanker. And it costs like, you know, like $2 million to shoot the drone out of the sky or something. That dynamic, I think, is very replicated in AI as well. Meaning, defense costs probably an order of magnitude more than an attack.” — Doug O'Laughlin, TBPN

“When I start using agents that try to do things without me, and the goal of these people… to try to make it autonomous and to do things without me and to be out of my control, Steve Jobs would be appalled by that. First of all, because it doesn't connect human creativity to the product… But secondly, these people aren't stepping back and saying, why are we making this? And the answer should be to help humanity.” — Walter Isaacson, TBPN

“…what AI can't do is grow up in a terrible home. AI can't have a broken heart.” — Jimmy Iovine, TBPN
