Podcasts about Arms race

Who will take care of you in old age? Jeff Cardenas, the CEO and co-founder of Apptronik, says the answer is robots. The startup founder set out to build a smart, dexterous robot after watching his grandfathers grow old and dependent in their later years. Beyond healthcare, Cardenas sees robots as essential to U.S. economic growth and national security with applications across industries. Even with the latest advances in artificial intelligence and hardware, what will it take for humanoid robots to make the leap from science fiction to reality? On the latest episode of the Bold Names podcast, Cardenas tells WSJ's Christopher Mims and Tim Higgins why Apptronik is betting it will create the home robot helper that everyone will want.

In this episode of Excess Returns, we sit down with Adrian Helfert of Westwood to discuss how investors should be thinking about portfolio construction in a market shaped by artificial intelligence, high levels of concentration, shifting interest rate dynamics, and evolving economic signals. The conversation covers how AI-driven capital spending is changing return profiles across markets, why traditional investing rules are breaking down, and how investors can balance growth, income, and risk in an uncertain environment. Adrian shares his framework for understanding return drivers, his views on market concentration and valuation, and how to think about diversification, macro risk, and income generation going forward.Main topics covered• How Westwood frames portfolio construction around capital appreciation, income, and event-driven returns• Why AI spending is both a major opportunity and a growing existential risk for large companies• The sustainability of market concentration and what it means for future returns• Whether higher interest rates really hurt growth stocks the way investors expect• How massive data center and AI capital expenditures could translate into productivity gains• The case for market broadening beyond the Magnificent Seven• Why traditional recession indicators have failed in recent cycles• How inflation, labor markets, and Federal Reserve policy interact today• Rethinking the classic 60/40 portfolio and the role of private markets• Using covered calls and active income strategies to manage risk and generate yieldTimestamps00:00 Introduction and near-term opportunities versus long-term risk02:40 Capital appreciation, income, and event-driven investing framework06:30 Have markets structurally changed to support higher returns09:30 Intangible assets, AI, and margin expansion10:20 The scale of AI and data center capital spending13:00 Productivity gains and return on investment from AI16:00 AI as both opportunity and risk for companies19:30 Market concentration and diversification concerns23:30 Will market leadership eventually broaden25:30 Growth stocks, duration, and interest rates29:30 International diversification and global investing33:30 Why recession indicators have failed39:00 Inflation outlook and Federal Reserve policy46:00 Rethinking the 60/40 portfolio53:00 Enhanced income strategies and covered calls59:00 One investing belief most peers disagree with

Welcome to The Chopping Block — where crypto insiders Haseeb Qureshi, Tom Schmidt, Tarun Chitra, and Robert Leshner chop it up about the latest in crypto. This episode features special guest Vladimir Novakovski, Founder of Lighter, joining the crew to unpack the fallout from October 10's historic perpetuals liquidation event and the ADL research that sparked a public clash with Hyperliquid. The panel digs into how auto-deleveraging really works, why these failures were long hidden inside centralized exchanges, and what decentralized perps must fix to truly outperform TradFi. The conversation then turns to the intensifying perp wars. With Lighter's zero-fee trading model, premium tiers for pros, and a looming token launch, the hosts debate whether crypto is headed for a Robinhood-style fee reset, why TVL may matter more than volume, and how RWAs, FX perps, and cross-margining are reshaping market structure. Finally, they tackle the growing divide between tokens and equity as devcos get acquired and tokenholders are left behind. Perps are evolving, incentives are breaking — let's get into it.

A shift in mindset can help investors cope with market uncertainty.2025 was a case study in the futility of trying to predict the market. Wall Street had lofty expectations for stocks entering the year. Then the tariff shock in April rattled the markets and many firms lowered their annual stock forecasts in response. They later raised them—after stock prices rebounded. With the new year on the horizon, Morningstar's 2026 Global Outlook report is offering investors tactics to weather whatever the future may hold.Morningstar strategists and an analyst will discuss key challenges facing investors in 2026 in our series. Dan Kemp, the chief research and investment officer with Morningstar Investment Management Europe, is one of the major driving forces behind the report.We're going to dig into research analyzing the AI arms race and its worldwide buildout. A team of Morningstar researchers have investigated the spending and the risks. Morningstar Research Services' senior equity analyst Brian Colello was part of the effort. Brian also covers Nvidia. He discusses the AI king's outlook, competition, and stock.AI Arms Race: How Tech's Capital Surge Will Reshape the Investment Landscape in 2026 On this episode:00:36:00 Welcome00:01:48 We typically talk about your Markets Brief column, but today we're focusing on “Morningstar's 2026 Global Investment Outlook.” The theme is “preparing for what comes next.” What will investors looking for ways to cope with uncertainty find in this in-depth report? 00:02:35 What makes Morningstar's outlook different from other companies? 00:03:21You've written about how a few ideas from the global investment report resonated with you.

AI company Anthropic (makers of the Claude model) says it stopped what is likely the first large-scale cyberattack primarily executed by artificial intelligence. The operation, which targeted about 30 organizations globally (tech firms, financial institutions, and government agencies), used a Chinese state-sponsored hacking group to manipulate Anthropic's Claude Code tool into autonomously performing 80-90% of the attack work.

Not gonna give much of an introduction here because this is a short bonus level set, but I did just wanna call everyone's attention to the "arms race" created by our status quo purchasing and selling of many things, pharmaceuticals included. For a full transcript of this episode, click here. If you enjoy this podcast, be sure to subscribe to the free weekly newsletter to be a member of the Relentless Tribe. For example, raise the list price of a drug to maximize rebates, because the higher the list, the bigger the discount you can give, which then exacerbates patient affordability because coinsurance is often based on list price. But then Pharma starts offering co-pay cards, which messes up the whole PBM (pharmacy benefit manager) plan to drive patients to their highest-rebate products (ie, the most profitable products). So then maximizers and accumulators enter the chat, and prior auths ramp up because plans start having to raise premiums after enough 340B drugs with high lists and no rebates, and then there's no cost containment and raise deductibles and around and around we go. Meanwhile, is this drug fundamentally worth the list price or even the net price? Is it an effective drug? What's the right price to be paying for this drug? Should be the operative question, right? Just like what's the quality and appropriateness of any medical service? Maybe we should just quit it and just pay for value. And with that, let me introduce Sarah Emond, CEO of ICER (Institute for Clinical and Economic Review), and I will let Sarah tell the rest of the story.

National security and intelligence expert Professor Armin Krishnan returns to the program to break down the rapidly expanding world of directed-energy weapons—systems once written off as science fiction that are now actively shaping modern conflict. He explains how microwave, electromagnetic, and acoustic weapons have moved from experimental prototypes to commercially booming tools of warfare, driven by governments and private defense contractors alike. These technologies are no longer theoretical; they are part of an accelerating global arms race.Krishnan also warns that today's battlefield is no longer limited to militaries. Civilians are increasingly the targets, whether in political hotspots, urban environments, or covert operations where deniability is essential. We explore how this shift in warfare—from fighting soldiers to influencing, disabling, or monitoring populations—signals a profound transformation in national security. This is a conversation for anyone who wants to understand the future of conflict and the technologies quietly reshaping it.See Armin Kirshnan's books including his most recent "Havana Syndrome: A Threat to National Security" at https://www.amazon.com/s?k=armin+kirshnan&i=digital-text&crid=2AM4B6N48QFED&sprefix=armin+kirshnan%2Cdigital-text%2C127&ref=nb_sb_noss_1Links and Offers:See exclusives at https://SarahWestall.Substack.comProtect your assets with a company you can trust - Get the private & better price list - Go to https://SarahWestall.com/MilesFranklinMasterpeace: Protect your body, Remove Heavy Metals including Graphene Oxide and Plastics, and learn more about removing MAC IDs at https://masterpeacebyhcs.com/shop/?ref=11308Copyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.

The United States is racing toward nuclear annihilation while its empire crumbles from within. In this explosive interview, independent journalist Rachel Blevins exposes how Washington's imperial ambitions have backfired catastrophically: as the New START treaty expires in 2026, Trump threatens to resume nuclear testing while Russia deploys unstoppable weapons like the Oreshnik and Burevestnik.Meanwhile, Zelensky begs for Tomahawk missiles that could trigger World War III, and in a shocking betrayal of reality, former Al-Qaeda leader Ahmad al-Sharaa, once with a $10 million bounty on his head, is now Syria's US-backed president, playing basketball with the very commanders who hunted him.From rare earth mineral dominance to the Nord Stream bombing cover-up, Blevins reveals how US aggression has forged an unbreakable Russia-China-Iran alliance, accelerating the collapse of American unipolar power while ordinary Americans pay the price at grocery stores and gas pumps.Donate to Support Independent Journalism: https://www.MintPressNews.com/donationsMintPress News YouTube: https://youtube.com/MintPressNewsFollow Rachel Blevins: https://twitter.com/RachelBlevinsFollow Mnar Adley: https://twitter.com/MnarMuhSupport the showMintPress News is a fiercely independent.

In Episode 448 of Hidden Forces, Demetri Kofinas speaks with Nathan Benaich, founder and general partner of Air Street Capital and the creator of the annual State of AI Report, an open-access compendium that tracks advances across AI research, industry, policy, and geopolitics. Nathan Benaich and Demetri spend the first hour of their conversation exploring some of the most important AI breakthroughs of the year. They unpack the DeepSeek moment, dig into some of the advancements made by the latest reasoning models, and discuss why there appears to be a regression in capabilities across certain domains in artificial intelligence at the same time as we are seeing marked improvements in reasoning-heavy use cases like coding and scientific research. The second hour turns to a conversation about the commercial implications and geopolitical dynamics of the AI arms race, including China's strategy to become the leader in open-weight models and tooling. They look at what industries, sectors, and professions may be most ripe for disruption, where the investment opportunities are, whether we're in a bubble comparable to the 1990s Internet boom, and how export controls, energy constraints, and regulatory red-tape could play an outsized role in shaping the trajectory of the current arms race. Lastly, Kofinas and Benaich examine where along the AI stack most of the value is likely to accrue—from the underlying picks and shovels, through the foundation models, to the apps that ride on top of them—and what all this means for labor markets, education, and the cadence of scientific discovery.

2025-10-31 | Silicon Wafers 044 | DAILY UPDATES | Russia flexes with another nuclear systems test days after the last one — as Washington toys with resuming its own. Has Trump called Putin's bluff by threatening to resume US nuclear tests, after decades of broad global agreement to end them? Moscow hammers Ukraine's grid again, Poland scrambles jets, and Europe tightens the noose on the Kremlin's grey fleet. Trump meets Xi, Beijing says it will “help” on the issue of Ukraine but offers nothing concrete. Georgia's ruling party moves to outlaw opponents. And Kyiv sketches a future air force of 250 modern fighters – are we starting to see the outlines of the Steel Porcupine take shape?----------Partner on this video: KYIV OF MINE Watch the trailer now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arJUcE1rxY0'Kyiv of Mine' is a documentary series about Ukraine's beautiful capital, Kyiv.
