The data centers that power artificial intelligence are being built at a rampant pace, and are spurring resistance all over the country. Apart from public concerns about A.I.'s impact on jobs, privacy, and other aspects of life, data centers consume vast amounts of electricity and water. New York has passed a moratorium on new data centers; fourteen other states have considered restrictions. The Vermont senator Bernie Sanders is taking this fight to the national level. He and Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez have introduced legislation that calls for a nationwide moratorium on data centers to allow time for more research and public input on the issue. The furor, Sanders tells David Remnick, cuts across political divisions. The opponents “are conservatives, they are progressives, they are moderates,” he adds. “They're saying, What the hell are we doing? What is this gonna contribute to? Is this gonna result in my kid not being able to have a job? Is this gonna result in my not having any privacy? Why am I aiding these large corporations owned by the wealthiest people in the world who [couldn't] care less about me? Let's stand up.”   Further reading and listening:  “When Bernie Sanders Headed for the Hills,” by Jill Lepore “Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Fight the Oligarchy,” by Emily Witt “Geoffrey Hinton: ‘It's Far Too Late' to Stop Artificial Intelligence,” an episode of The New Yorker Radio Hour   New episodes of The New Yorker Radio Hour drop every Tuesday and Friday.

P.M. Edition for Aug. 14. Money managers have a problem: Clients are holding near-record amounts in cash—by one estimate more than $3 trillion. Miriam Gottfried, a reporter and co-host of WSJ's Take On the Week podcast, explains why this is happening and what financial planners are pushing their clients to do instead. Plus, two pieces of data—July retail sales and the preliminary August reading of the University of Michigan's consumer sentiment survey—came in lower than expected. WSJ economics reporter Matt Grossman says that is painting a picture of a weaker U.S. economy. And AI slop is everywhere, making it hard to know what's real online. We hear from WSJ personal tech columnist Nicole Nguyen about the inspiration for her recent special Tech News Briefing podcast series, “AI and the Blurring of Reality.” Alex Ossola hosts.

Graham McAleer: Pope Leo has issued a bold encyclical addressing the ethical and social threats posed by artificial intelligence. Graham McAleer explains that the Pope uses the biblical image of Nimrod and the Tower of Babel to characterize AI as a manifestation of human darkness and godlike pride. A primary concern is the asymmetry of wealth, in which a small, secretive class of Silicon Valley oligarchs controls a technology that operates largely outside state law. While the Church acknowledges AI's potential benefits in medicine and education, it warns that the oligarchic structure of the industry challenges state power and treats users as livestock for data farming. The Pope explicitly calls for government regulation to protect human dignity, yet McAleer notes the fundamental contradiction of expecting the state to control private entities that have already become more powerful than many governments.

Humans are remarkably bad at predicting how long something will take. Whether it's a home project, a work assignment, or even a quick trip across town, we almost always underestimate the time involved. Psychologists have studied this tendency for decades—and understanding why it happens can help you make better plans, meet more deadlines, and avoid unnecessary frustration. https://thedecisionlab.com/biases/planning-fallacy We tend to think of imagination as something artists, inventors, and children rely on. But imagination is actually one of the most powerful—and overlooked—abilities we all possess. It shapes the decisions you make, the problems you solve, the goals you pursue, and even the life you create. There is fascinating science behind how imagination works, and once you understand it, you can use it far more effectively. My guest is Dr. Cassandra Vieten, clinical psychologist, Director of Research at the Arthur C. Clarke Center for Human Imagination at the University of California, San Diego, and author of the book Imagine That: Unlocking the Science of Imagination to Transform the Way You Think, Feel, and Live (https://amzn.to/4bqbZl7) Here is the link to discover your imagination profile: https://imagination.ucsd.edu/profile/ Artificial intelligence can write essays, diagnose diseases, generate stunning images, and defeat the world's best chess players. Yet ask it to perform certain tasks that are effortless for a human child, and it can stumble badly. Why? What exactly makes AI so powerful in some areas—and surprisingly weak in others? Beneath the headlines are some fascinating realities about how AI actually works and where it still falls short. Here to explain it is Toby Walsh, one of the world's leading AI researchers. He is Professor of Artificial Intelligence at the University of New South Wales, Chief Scientist at its AI Institute, and author of The Shortest History of AI: The Six Essential Ideas That Animate It (https://amzn.to/4hCjycc) When a highway lane is closed ahead, should you merge immediately or wait until the very end? Most drivers have strong opinions, but traffic engineers have spent years studying what actually keeps traffic moving. The answer is NOT what many people expect—and understanding it may change the way you drive through every construction zone. https://highways.dot.gov/sites/fhwa.dot.gov/files/FHWA-HRT-23-070.pdf= PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS AIR DOCTOR: Head to ⁠https://AirDoctorPro.com⁠ and use promo code SYSK to get $250 off select AirDoctor air purifiers, including the 3500, 4000, and 5500 models.

Plus, seven months into the U.S. energy blockade against Cuba, everyday people are struggling to sleep in the heat and to afford food as blackouts persist. We hear from Journal reporter José de Córdoba about what he is hearing from people across the country. And the proliferation of restaurant reservation apps have made it a nightmare for diners to get a table at a buzzy restaurant.

Send us Fan MailAI is making real estate faster, smarter, and easier to scale - but it's also making fraud cheaper, faster, and more convincing. The agents and brokerages that win next may not be the ones using the most AI, but the ones consumers trust with their money.Gary Pickren lays out the new reality real estate professionals are walking into, where fabricated emails, cloned voices, manipulated documents, and AI-generated video can all be used to fool buyers, sellers, and even seasoned teams. The upside is real. So is the risk.You'll hear how AI is already improving marketing, communication, research, contract review, scheduling, and transaction management, while simultaneously raising the stakes around identity, verification, and client protection. The conversation centers on a critical shift: technology can accelerate your business, but trust is what will separate the companies people choose.You'll discover why deception is becoming more accessible than ever, what that means for real estate operations, and how forward-thinking firms can build systems that protect clients before a problem happens. Gary also explains why confidence alone is no longer enough - modern consumers want proof that you have safeguards in place.If you work in real estate, lead a brokerage, or care about how AI is reshaping high-trust industries, this is essential listening. It's a wake-up call about the future of the business and a reminder that in an AI world, trust is becoming the ultimate competitive advantage.You'll learn about:• The difference between fraud detection and fraud-resistant design• Why "recognition is not authentication"• The Transaction Trust Ceremony• Transaction verification passphrases• The Two-Channel Rule• Why financial instructions should never change by email alone• Protecting employees from AI-powered social engineering• Protecting your digital identity• Creating a Zero-Trust Closing• The S.T.O.P. fraud-prevention framework• Five changes REALTORS® can make immediately• Risk-tiering transactions for attorneys, lenders and title companiesAnd remember the simplest rule from this episode:MONEY MOVES = TWO CHANNELS.If money is moving or financial instructions suddenly change, stop and independently verify before acting.If this episode could protect one agent, buyer, seller, lender or closing professional from fraud, share it with someone in the industry.#RealEstate #ArtificialIntelligence #AIFraud #RealEstateFraud #WireFraud #Cybersecurity #Realtor #RealEstateAgent #ClosingAttorney #MortgageFraud #Deepfake #RealEstateTechnology #DishinDirtDon't forget to like us and share us!Gary* Gary serves on the South Carolina Real Estate Commission as a Commissioner.

Welcome to The Celluloid Mirror!In this episode we discuss Paul Norman's 1995 film Ice Cream Man starring Clint Howard and Steven Spielberg's 2001 film A.I. Artificial Intelligence starring Haley Joel Osment.Did we do this episode partly to comment on a certain other Ice Cream Man film that is currently getting torn apart by horror fans and uses generative A.I.? Yup. We briefly discuss Eli Roth's latest "efforts." We also discuss how the 1995 Ice Cream Man is a whole lot of fun, A.I. was mis-marketed leading to poor audience reactions, read some listener/viewer comments, and spend some time on the internet. Ice Cream Man Reviews:Stefan Birgir Stefans: https://www.sbs.is/movie-review/ice-cream-man-1995/Robert Scucci: https://www.giantfreakinrobot.com/ent/horror/ice-cream-man-review.htmlCritic Quotes about A.I. Artificial Intelligence:“By the end A.I. exhibits all its creators' bad traits and none of the good. So we end up with the structureless, meandering, slow-motion endlessness of Kubrick combined with the fuzzy, cuddly mindlessness of Spielberg.” - Mick Lasalle, SF Chronicle“There aren't many at all like Spielberg and Kubrick, directors willing to lasso dreams (that's Steven) and nightmares (that's Stanley) or die trying. A.I. is a clash of the titans, a jumble, an oedipal drama, a carny act. I want to see it again.” - Lisa Schwazbaum, EWSubscribe to the audio-only version of The Celluloid Mirror on your podcast platform of choice or subscribe to our YouTube Channel at https://www.youtube.com/@4milecircusprod and turn on reminders to catch our livestreams.

In China, top leaders are pushing the adoption of Artificial Intelligence. Companies there are using AI at a scale that far outpaces that of the US. That means some Chinese workers are being displaced from their jobs. Now, Chinese courts are stepping in. And in some cases, courts are ruling that worker displacement is unlawful. But Chinese workers are still anxious.Support public media with NPR+ and enjoy perks for over 25 podcasts like this one. This show's perks include sponsor-free listening.

Artificial Intelligence may be changing the way we work, but it isn't replacing the one thing organisations need most: human imagination. In this episode of Sticky From The Inside, Andy Goram is joined by innovation expert, former Hewlett-Packard executive and author Stephen W. Hinch to explore why the organisations that succeed won't simply be the ones with the best technology, they'll be the ones that build an innovation culture where everyone believes their ideas matter. Drawing on decades of experience leading billion-dollar product innovations, Steve explains why innovation isn't reserved for R&D teams or senior leaders. Instead, it's a leadership responsibility that depends on creating environments where people feel trusted, encouraged and empowered to think differently. Together, Andy and Steve discuss the growing fear of becoming obsolete in the age of AI, why AI is a powerful tool but not a replacement for human creativity, the difference between incremental and disruptive innovation, and the organisational structures that help great ideas thrive instead of being quietly buried. If you've ever wondered why some organisations consistently innovate while others struggle despite investing heavily in technology, this conversation offers a practical and refreshingly human answer. ----more---- Key Takeaways Innovation begins with belief. Innovation starts by creating a culture where people believe their ideas are welcomed, valued and worth sharing. AI supports innovation. It doesn't replace it. AI can accelerate knowledge and insight, but human imagination remains the true driver of breakthrough innovation. Different innovation needs different leadership. Incremental improvements and disruptive breakthroughs require different structures, expectations and measures of success. Innovation culture is built deliberately. Leaders create innovation by giving people the clarity, confidence and space to think differently. ----more---- Key Moments The key moments in this episode are: 01:11 – Why Innovation Matters More Than Ever in the Age of AI 04:13 – A Career Built on Turning Innovation into Business Growth 06:05 – Why Innovation Remains a Competitive Advantage 09:23 – FOBO The Fear of Becoming Obsolete 11:10 – Why AI Can Support Innovation But Not Replace Human Imagination 14:29 – Different Types of Innovation Need Different Leadership 19:19 – The Curse of the Corporate Business Model 25:16 – Creating an Innovation Culture Where Everyone Believes Their Ideas Matter 31:09 – Giving People Permission to Innovate: Steve's 5% Rule 36:29 – Leadership Isn't About Having the Best Ideas 40:18 – Sticky Notes: Three Principles for Building an Innovation Culture ----more---- Join The Conversation Find Andy Goram on LinkedIn here Listen to the Podcast on YouTube here Follow the Podcast on Instagram here Follow the Podcast on Twitter here Follow the Podcast on Facebook here Check out the Bizjuicer website here Get a free consultation with Andy here Check out the Bizjuicer blog here Download the podcast here ----more---- Useful Links Follow Stephen W.

AI can write the essay, calculate the answer, summarize the book, and solve the problem before you have really had to think. Jim Kwik's concern is not just cognitive offloading. It's cognitive surrender. After 34 years teaching people how to learn, remember, read, and focus, he believes the real risk of AI is that technology starts doing so much of the mental work that we stop building the abilities we need most. In this episode, Louisa sits down with Jim to unpack what happens when we outsource memory, judgment, creativity, and critical thinking. He explains why learning requires effort, why the brain follows a "use it or lose it" principle, and what research comparing students using ChatGPT, search engines, or no assistance suggests about cognitive engagement and recall. They also explore cognitive reserve, metacognition, attention, reading, sleep, and why doing difficult things may be one of the best ways to protect the brain. Jim also shares the brain injury that shaped his life, the period when severe sleep apnea left him sleeping around 90 minutes a night, and the habits he now uses to protect his cognition. You'll hear why he says "mind before media," why reading is exercise for the brain, and how to use AI as augmented intelligence without giving up your own. The goal isn't to reject technology. It's to stay the pilot of your brain, not the passenger.

Anish Acharya is joined by Garry Tan, President and CEO of Y Combinator, for a conversation about how AI is rewriting the startup playbook, why founders should be more ambitious than ever, and what two decades of Silicon Valley booms, busts, and missed opportunities have taught Garry about building what's next. Garry reflects on turning down an early opportunity to join Palantir, why chasing what's "hot" is often the wrong strategy, and why the best ideas tend to begin with people pursuing strange, earnest obsessions outside the mainstream. They also explore how AI changes the economics of company building, why traditional SaaS may be losing its advantage, and how tiny teams equipped with hundreds of agents can build businesses at a scale that once required entire organizations. The conversation goes deeper into agentic companies, taste and agency, why "a markdown file is an employee," and how AI could remove layers of bureaucracy that have historically limited organizations. Garry and Anish also discuss the future of consumer AI, the coming "harness wars," why AI adoption may take longer than Silicon Valley expects, and what the next generation of founders can build with intelligence that was unimaginable just a few years ago.   Resources: Follow Garry Tan on X: https://x.com/garrytan Follow Anish Acharya on X: https://x.com/illscience Follow Y Combinator on X: https://x.com/ycombinator Stay Updated:Find a16z on YouTube: YouTubeFind a16z on XFind a16z on LinkedInListen to the a16z Show on SpotifyListen to the a16z Show on Apple PodcastsFollow our host: https://twitter.com/eriktorenberg Please note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

More than a year ago, Melody put a placeholder in our shared podcast planning document: SOMETHING SMART ABOUT AI. We were sick, bored, or frustrated with the way so many podcasts were talking about it — usually because it involved dudes talking with other dudes and universalizing proclamations about whether artificial intelligence was going to usher in an age of utopia (doubtful) or kill us all (doubtful but more probable). We wanted someone willing to get into the gray areas of LLM and chatbot use in particular — someone with real experience with what they can do and real ambivalence about what they do to us. That person is Vauhini Vara, author of Searches: Selfhood in the Digital Age, and one of my absolute favorite thinkers working and writing today. In this episode, we talk about how LLMs short circuit the creative process, how they're changing the way students learn to think and discern, the specious argument that AI "democratizes creativity," really bad AI art, and why it's so hard to talk about AI usage just generally. I loved this conversation and keep coming back to the ideas, challenges, hopes, and frustrations we discussed — I think you will too.

How can higher education scale its reach without sacrificing academic rigor or student outcomes? In this episode of An Educated Guest, host Todd Zipper sits down with Dr. Vijay Kumar, Dean of Penn Engineering at the University of Pennsylvania, to discuss the changing landscape of engineering, robotics, and academic leadership. Drawing on nearly 40 years of experience as a researcher and administrator, Dean Kumar shares his vision for expanding educational access and explains why measuring higher education excellence through selectivity alone misses the broader purpose of institutional impact.The conversation dives deep into Penn's pioneering efforts in modern learning, including expanding their online graduate programs to reach thousands of non-traditional learners worldwide. Dean Kumar unpacks Penn's decision to launch the Ivy League's first undergraduate degree in Artificial Intelligence—emphasizing "Intelligence Augmentation" and systems engineering over simple software generation. He also shares how AI is reshaping classroom assessment, driving faculty toward Socratic oral exams, team-based problem solving, and higher-order critical thinking.Finally, the discussion explores the power of cross-disciplinary collaboration and university commercialization. From developing an AI-driven mRNA Biofoundry alongside Penn Medicine to building an entrepreneurial ecosystem that takes robotics startups from university labs to the Nasdaq, Dean Kumar offers a hopeful, forward-looking playbook for the future of higher education. Tune in for a masterclass on technology, pedagogy, and institutional leadership.

In this episode of Building Texas Business, Chris Hanslik sits down with Tim Doll, founder and CEO of Precocity, a boutique technology consulting firm, for a conversation about building a company that has thrived through more than two decades of relentless technological change. Tim shares how his early frustration with corporate bureaucracy became the spark to strike out on his own and build a company where vision could translate directly into action.Tim talks about the firm's origins in the early days of high speed internet and DSL, how the company evolved into a team of software engineers, designers, data architects, and AI engineers, and why he likes to say Precocity was doing AI before it was cool. He reflects candidly on the lessons learned along the way, from the importance of solid contracts and clearly defined expectations to the reality that success is less about a destination and more about always continuing to learn and grow.The conversation takes a thoughtful look at how artificial intelligence is reshaping professional services, including the pressure it puts on the traditional time and materials model, the likely shift toward outcome based pricing, and the deeper challenge of how the next generation gains real experience when AI can handle so many entry level tasks. Tim and Chris also explore why going deep and developing genuine expertise matters more than ever in a world where AI offers breadth but not depth.Tim also opens up about the culture he has worked to build at Precocity, hiring for character, culture, and capability in that order, embracing humility as a core value, and practicing a flat, servant leadership approach where the higher you go, the lower you go. He describes the company's Jedi Tech Council, a biweekly forum where team members share their work, their successes, and their failures, and explains why focusing on people's strengths rather than fixating on weaknesses has kept turnover low and tenure long.If you are a founder, technology leader, or professional service provider trying to understand how AI will reshape your business model, how to build a durable and relational company culture, and why Texas continues to be such a welcoming place for entrepreneurs, this episode offers a grounded and forward looking conversation worth your time.LINKSShow NotesPrevious EpisodesAbout BoyarMillerAbout Precocity

Send us Fan MailOne lucky break didn't make Gene Valentino successful, but it did reveal what happens when preparation meets timing. We sat down with Gene to trace a path that starts with a working-class upbringing and a relentless work ethic, then jumps through real estate investing, insurance sales, and into a wild moment in business history: the early cellular telephone franchise lottery. Gene explains what it took to raise capital, build infrastructure on a deadline, and eventually sell the operation for life-changing money, then use that exit as seed capital for a diversified holding company.We also zoom out to what most people ignore: how politics and geopolitical events shape your wallet. From oil prices to taxes to regulation, we talk through why investors and entrepreneurs cannot afford to “stay out of politics,” even if they hate the drama. The conversation turns to today's technology trends, including the AI boom, data centers, and the way builders like Elon Musk attract both opportunity and backlash, plus what that says about incentives, culture, and long-term wealth creation.Finally, Gene shares a personal story about patriotism and civic responsibility that frames the episode's core takeaway: self-reliance is learned, and it compounds. If you're building a side hustle, thinking about investing, or trying to turn skills into ownership, you'll walk away with a clearer filter for risk, timing, and what to focus on next.

What is the state of content management systems today? Richard chats with Matthew Garrepy of CMS Critic about his views on how the CMS market continues to evolve. Matt digs into the build-vs-buy conversation that has been going on since the web first emerged - now made more complex with the power of the large language model to generate code. The evolution toward headless CMS brings up the idea of the explosion of different places that a CMS needs to touch now - not just web pages. The landscape for CMS is only getting more complex, and the tooling reflects that! Links CMSCritic Sanity CMS Sitecore EmDash Recorded July 6, 2026

a16z's Joel De La Garza is joined by Emilio Escobar, Chief Information Security Officer at Datadog, to discuss what it takes to secure a company where nearly every employee is using AI and more than 4,000 engineers are working with coding agents. Rather than trying to block new tools, Emilio explains why Datadog chose to embrace AI early and build the security infrastructure needed to use it safely. They unpack how AI changes traditional assumptions around data permissions, credentials, developer access, and software supply chains. Emilio shares how Datadog uses role-based MCP servers and ephemeral credentials, as well as an AI "judge" built by his security team to evaluate the intent behind code and agent skills before they enter the environment. They also discuss why security teams can't afford to wait for commercial solutions to every new AI threat, how the relationship between developers and security teams needs to change, and why Emilio is less concerned about an AI "escaping" than he is about the sheer volume of vulnerabilities AI could uncover.   Resources: Follow Emilio Escobar on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/emilioesc Follow Joel De La Garza on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/3448827723723234/ Follow Datadog on X: https://x.com/datadoghq Stay Updated:Find a16z on YouTube: YouTubeFind a16z on XFind a16z on LinkedInListen to the a16z Show on SpotifyListen to the a16z Show on Apple PodcastsFollow our host: https://twitter.com/eriktorenberg Please note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

Is your business creating more content with AI… but getting less attention from it?AI has made it ridiculously easy to produce images, ads, social posts, and product visuals. Unfortunately, easy doesn't mean effective. When everyone has access to the same tools, generic prompts tend to produce generic content—and generic content rarely moves the business needle.The solution isn't another 500-word “perfect prompt.” It's giving AI better context, references, brand knowledge, and creative direction—and knowing when human refinement still matters.In this episode of Leveraging AI, Isar Meitis sits down with Aastha Taneja to break down a practical workflow for creating AI-powered visual assets that look intentional, stay consistent with your brand, and are designed to generate engagement rather than simply fill your content calendar.Aastha demonstrates how she combines traditional creative thinking with tools including ChatGPT, Figma, Pinterest, image-generation platforms, and Photoshop. She also explains why she believes businesses should treat AI as an assistant—not outsource the entire creative process to it.In this session, you'll discover:Why so much AI-generated marketing content turns into forgettable “AI slop.”Why better AI creative starts before you write a prompt.How mood boards give AI a far clearer understanding of the visual direction you want.How to feed AI your website, brand assets, SOPs, typography, and existing creative to improve its output.The difference between borrowing a proven format and copying someone else's creative.How to maintain accurate product details when AI image generators get almost everything right—but miss one critical element.How AI can help businesses create high-quality Amazon listing images and other e-commerce assets.How reusable visual workflows can turn a manual creative process into a scalable content system.Aastha Taneja is a creative professional with years of experience developing digital assets for brands and through freelance work. She now combines that traditional design foundation with AI, helping businesses and professionals understand how to use AI tools more effectively for creative work and sharing those methods through corporate training.Her core philosophy is refreshingly practical: AI should amplify good creative thinking—not replace it.Connect with Aastha on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/taneja-aastha/ About Leveraging AIThe Ultimate AI Course for Business People: https://multiplai.ai/ai-course/YouTube Full Episodes: https://www.youtube.com/@Multiplai_AI/Connect with Isar Meitis: https://www.linkedin.com/in/isarmeitis/ Join our Live Sessions, AI Hangouts and newsletter: https://services.multiplai.ai/eventsIf you've enjoyed or benefited from some of the insights of this episode, leave us a five-star review on your favorite podcast platform, and let us know what you learned, found helpful, or liked most about this show!

Angela Strange and Gabriel Vasquez are joined by Alejandro Maza Ayala, Chief Product & AI Officer at Kavak, to unpack how the Latin American used-car marketplace rebuilt itself around AI agents, with 96% of customer interactions and 95% of transactions now handled by agents. Alejandro explains why Kavak decided that simply giving employees AI tools wasn't enough, and instead redesigned the company's systems, teams, and customer experience around agents. They discuss why Kavak spends as much engineering effort on evals as it does building agents, how its AI sellers outperform its human teams, and an experiment where an AI "CEO" increased profits in one city by 50% in its first month. The conversation also explores what happens to organizational structure when agents do most of the work, why Kavak trains everyone from executives to mechanics to build with AI, and Alejandro's argument that companies looking for incremental AI adoption may be missing the larger opportunity: redesigning the organization itself.   Resources: Follow Alejandro Maza Ayala on X: https://x.com/alehandromz Follow Angela Strange on X: https://x.com/astrange Follow Gabriel Vasquez on X: https://x.com/GEVS94 Stay Updated:Find a16z on YouTube: YouTubeFind a16z on XFind a16z on LinkedInListen to the a16z Show on SpotifyListen to the a16z Show on Apple PodcastsFollow our host: https://twitter.com/eriktorenberg Please note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

For over 125 years, Farmers Mutual Telephone Company (FMTC) has helped connect rural Iowa—first with telephones, then cable television, cellular service, broadband internet, and now preparing for what may become agriculture's next major infrastructure investment: AI computing. In this episode, Kevin shares how a small rural telephone company evolved into a modern broadband provider and why Iowa's independent telecommunications companies have been uniquely positioned to bring fiber internet to rural communities long before much of the country caught up. He explains how fiber optic networks work, why broadband is becoming just as essential as electricity, and why nearly every modern technology—from cellular service to Starlink—ultimately depends on fiber somewhere along the journey. The conversation then turns toward one of the fastest-growing topics in technology: artificial intelligence. Kevin explains why AI is creating unprecedented demand for computing power, what massive data centers mean for energy and infrastructure, and why he believes the future isn't giant facilities consuming thousands of acres—but rather distributed micro data centers that could fit on a single lot while serving customers around the world. The hosts also tackle concerns many farmers have about large data centers, including land use, energy consumption, and local economic impact. Kevin discusses how smaller AI computing facilities could create new opportunities without removing productive farmland while giving farmers more control over their own data. The discussion explores whether producers could someday "farm data" just like they market grain—owning, storing, and deciding when and how to monetize one of their operation's fastest-growing assets. Along the way, you'll also hear: How the internet actually reaches your farm Why symmetrical upload and download speeds matter The differences between fiber, cellular, and Starlink The future of precision agriculture and AI Why protecting farm data may become just as important as protecting grain in the bin Whether fiber optics will ever be replaced If you've ever wondered how technology is reshaping agriculture—or where rural America fits into the AI revolution—this episode offers a fascinating look at what's coming next.
