The rules of career success just changed. Hard skills matter less. Credentials matter less. And playing it safe? That might be the riskiest move of all. Bill Gurley has backed Uber, DoorDash, eBay, and Snap. He's spent 30 years watching who wins and who gets destroyed. In the AI era, that gap is about to become a canyon. In this conversation, Bill breaks down the exact skill stack that makes you anti-fragile: why unbridled determination beats raw intelligence, why salesmanship is the most compounding founder skill nobody talks about, and why the conveyor belt from college to consulting is now the highest-risk career path in existence. You'll learn the Jeff Bezos hiring filter for people who will build something come hell or high water, why AI is a jetpack for the self-directed and a threat to everyone else, how open-source Chinese AI models are a bigger disruption than most realize, and the regret minimization framework Bezos used to decide whether to start Amazon. If you've ever wondered whether you're on the right path — or how to stand out when everyone has access to the same tools — this one will permanently change how you think about winning.

Travis Chappell breaks down the limits of traditional personal finance advice in a solo episode, explaining why cutting expenses alone won't build real wealth—you need to aggressively increase your income to outpace inflation, unexpected life costs, and the dream of true financial freedom. On this episode we talk about: Why budgeting and saving hit a ceiling at zero expenses, but earning more income is unlimited and the real path to wealth. Life's endless surprises (roofs, transmissions, family emergencies, kids' activities) demand far more money than any budget predicts. Inflation's silent killer effect: $1.2M in 30 years from $100/month investing could spend like just $250K-$450K after real-world price doubling. The Rule of 72: S&P doubles every ~7 years at 10% returns, but 3% inflation doubles prices every 24 years (or faster in reality). Side hustles that scale (Uber, flipping, landscaping) + skill-building for 5X income jumps to hit your "freedom number" faster. Top 3 Takeaways 1.  Double the nest egg you think you need—live off just 4-5% annually to preserve principal against inflation and longevity.2.  $200/month grows to ~$400K nominal in 30 years (10% returns), but inflation-adjusted it's ~$150K; bump to $1,200/month for $2.4M.3.  Acquire monetizable skills, knowledge, and relationships—recessions can't touch them, but they'll 5X your income trajectory. Notable Quotes "You will always need more money than you think you're going to need. Life has a way of demanding more from you than you expect." "The most delta you could ever create would be $80K a year... the only thing left is your ability to go earn more income." "Inflation is going to quietly murder your comfort, your nest egg." "If you extract the meaning from your life... eliminating work from your life is a fast path to dying sooner." "The only path to creating exponential increases in your earned income is through skills that you do not currently have."

In this news-style episode, Simon and Dan break down Citrini Research’s The 2028 Global Intelligence Crisis—a “note from the future” dated June 30, 2028 that frames the most bullish AI adoption path as a surprisingly bearish outcome for the real economy. They walk through the core feedback loop: companies deploy AI to boost productivity and margins, layoffs rise (especially in white-collar roles), consumer spending weakens, and the cycle reinforces itself—creating what the piece calls “ghost GDP,” where productivity climbs but wages and demand don’t keep up. From there, the duo digs into the sectors Citrini argues get hit first and hardest: SaaS (seat contraction + customers using AI as renewal leverage), the intermediation layer (agents shopping travel, subscriptions, insurance, delivery, and more), and even payment rails as AI agents chase lower-cost settlement via stablecoins. They also connect the dots to private credit and insurance flywheels—where mark-to-model portfolios can look stable until forced selling and capital needs expose stress—and what rising unemployment could mean for housing in once “prime” white-collar markets.

Bryan Clayton started mowing lawns as a teenager with a push mower. Twenty years later, he's the CEO of GreenPal — the app Entrepreneur Magazine calls “the Uber for lawn care.” Before GreenPal, Bryan built one of Tennessee's largest landscaping companies, growing it to over $10 million a year before selling it. Now he's doing it again — this time with technology. GreenPal connects 300,000 homeowners with reliable lawn pros, handling thousands of jobs every day all over the US. Bryan is on a mission to bring AI into one of the oldest industries out there — helping small lawn care businesses use data and automation to compete like big companies. From pushing a mower to building a $30 million tech platform, Bryan's story is all about grit, adaptation, and how old-school hard work can thrive in a high-tech world.

Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training "How many people can this replace?" is the wrong question to ask about AI. The better question is, "What could my team do if all the busywork disappeared?" Today's featured guest unpacks how he's embedded AI across a 12-year-old agency, why it's increased hiring instead of reducing it, and what it actually takes to make AI stick culturally, not just technically. Gilad Bechar is the founder and CEO of Moburst, a global digital transformation agency that started as a mobile marketing shop and evolved into a full-service growth partner for some of the biggest brands in the world, Google, Microsoft, Uber, Samsung, and more. Over the past 12 years, Moburst has completed five acquisitions and continues to acquire two to three companies per year, intentionally expanding capabilities to become a true one-stop growth shop. In our previous conversation, we talked about acquisitions and scale. This time, we focused on what Gilad calls the next major accelerator: AI. In this episode, we'll discuss: AI is NOT a side project. AI adoption could result in more hiring, not less How your agency team could see AI as a career transformation Subscribe Apple | Spotify | iHeart Radio Sponsors and Resources This episode is brought to you by Wix Studio: If you're leveling up your team and your client experience, your site builder should keep up too.

Ready to design faster and smarter? Go to wix.com/studio to get started. Treating AI as a Strategic Priority, Not a Side Project One of the biggest mistakes agencies make with AI is delegating it too low in the organization. Gilad knew early on that AI wasn't a trend; it was an operational shift. Instead of hiring a junior "AI manager" or tasking a developer with experiments, he hired a VP of AI and gave that role real authority. The mandate was simple but uncomfortable: if you're doing things in 2026 the same way you did them in 2024, you're already behind. That level of change creates friction, especially in senior teams with decades of experience. Gilad was clear that AI adoption couldn't be optional or political. A manager shouldn't have to "fight" a director or VP to change how work gets done. By putting AI leadership at the VP level, Moburst removed that bottleneck entirely. AI wasn't framed as "your work is wrong." It was framed as "your work could be 10x more effective if we rethink the process." They backed this up structurally. Every team has an AI Champion, someone who spends 20–30% of their time driving AI adoption within their department while still doing real client work. On top of that, there's a central AI team building protocols, agents, workflows, and even new products. The result: AI becomes part of how the agency operates, not something people dabble in when they have extra time (which no one ever has). Why AI Led to More Hiring, Not Less There's a persistent fear among agency teams that AI equals layoffs. Gilad's experience has been the opposite. The original internal goal was to increase billable capacity per employee by 50%. On paper, that could mean doing the same revenue with fewer people. In reality, what happened was far more interesting: revenue per employee increased and demand exploded. When Moburst started showing clients what was possible, new automations, new AI-powered offerings, faster insights, smarter execution, it unlocked more budget. Clients didn't just buy services; they bought innovation. They talked about it internally. They shared it with peers. And that momentum brought in larger, more sophisticated opportunities. Gilad shared an example where Moburst won two Fortune 10 companies in Q4, one of which came in looking for a media agency. Media alone would've won the pitch. But what sealed the deal was showing how the brand could improve visibility and positioning across AI-driven discovery platforms like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude. This is the key shift: AI freed up time and raised the ceiling on value. Instead of spending hours exporting spreadsheets, building decks, or manually stitching reports together, teams could focus on thinking, collaborating, and creating new growth levers for clients. That's not a cost-cutting story. That's a growth story. Using AI to Upgrade People, Not Replace Them Another overlooked benefit of AI is internal career transformation. Gilad talked openly about roles that are likely to disappear as platforms automate more of the execution. Media buying is a great example. When Google and Meta are telling the market that campaigns will soon require little more than a credit card and a website, the writing is on the wall. Instead of pretending that isn't happening, he decided to lean into it. Media managers, content managers, and BI specialists were given the opportunity to reskill, moving into AI-focused roles where their domain knowledge still mattered, but their output multiplied. A content manager could become an AI workflow designer. A media buyer could evolve into someone who builds and manages intelligent systems instead of manually tweaking campaigns. This reframes AI from a threat into leverage. Employees aren't stuck defending outdated tasks; they're learning future-proof skills. That mindset shift alone changes morale, retention, and performance. Building a Culture of AI Sharing and Experimentation At his agency, Gilad made sharing AI knowledge non-optional. Every week, AI Champions review what's new in the AI world and translate it into what this means for our teams right now. Monthly hackathons focus the entire team on eliminating one manual process at a time. And then there's AI Week—a multi-day internal event where every team presents what they built, what worked, and what failed. The presentations aren't dry. Teams tell stories. They demo workflows. They show where things broke and how they pivoted. Some even use AI-generated video to walk through the narrative. That transparency matters. Failure isn't hidden, it's shared. And that creates trust, speed, and cross-team learning. One team's solution becomes another team's shortcut. Ideas jump departments. People start asking, "How could this apply to my work?" That's when AI stops being a tool and starts becoming a multiplier. The Bigger Takeaway for Agency Owners You don't need a VP of AI tomorrow. You don't need hackathons or AI week or 16 champions. But you do need to take the first step. AI adoption doesn't start with tools. It starts with ownership. Someone has to be accountable for asking, "If we rebuilt this process today, would we still do it this way?" Do You Want to Transform Your Agency from a Liability to an Asset?

Hablamos con varios trabajadores de Uber.

This week on Autonomy Markets, Grayson Brulte and Walter Piecyk discuss Uber's new Autonomous Vehicle Solutions initiative, Waymo's growing markets, and the growth of Physical AI powered by NVIDIA.As Uber's stock languishes in the low seventies due to investor overhang about the future of autonomy, the company announced Uber Autonomous Solutions, a new initiative to support the growth of autonomous vehicles on the Uber platform.Grayson and Walt break down the initiative point by point, examining Uber's strategy of providing training data, enriched mapping, venue management, and autonomous vehicle insurance. While Grayson views much of the in-car experience pitch as buzzword Alley, Walt argues that AV mission control and fleet management are the true meat of Uber's strategy, aiming to provide the critical API for a fragmented market. This sparks a spirited debate on whether Uber is maintaining its asset-light identity or quietly creeping into asset-heavy operations by owning and operating robotaxi assets.The conversation then shifts to the geopolitical risks of Uber's international partnerships, as the company recently hosted analysts in Abu Dhabi to meet with Chinese autonomous partners WeRide and Baidu. Grayson warns of the tremendous blowback and political risk this carries back home, especially given the current US administration's active stance on social media regarding foreign technology.Walt and Grayson also discuss a recent broker report, shared by Uber CFO Balaji Krishnamurthy on X, that analyzed just 34 trips in Austin and claimed there is no cost advantage to autonomy. They call the sample size too small and the conclusions baffling given the obvious long-term benefits of removing human drivers.Contrasting Uber's narrative tour, Waymo is aggressively scaling and growing revenue. This week, Waymo announced they have crossed 1 million fully autonomous freeway miles, expanded into Chicago and Charlotte, and opened up Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, and Orlando to early riders.Notably, Uber was absent from these new market announcements, leading Grayson to point out the potentially waning relationship between the two companies. Furthermore, he put on his inspector hat to uncover signs of Waymo's grand ambitions in the EU, citing meetings with the European Commission and job postings for EU regulatory counsel.As Waymo scales, the capital markets are flowing for autonomy investments, highlighted by Wayve securing a $1.2 billion check at an $8.6 billion valuation. The round includes investments from SoftBank, NVIDIA, Stellantis, and Nissan, with Uber committing to own and operate the Wayve fleet in 10 upcoming markets, starting with London.Then there is the growth of physical AI, which NVIDIA announced contributed $6 billion in earnings last quarter, with CFO Colette Kress signaling that robotaxis and humanoids are poised to be major growth markets over the next decade.Episode Chapters00:00 Uber's Identity Crisis 1:33 Breaking Down Uber Autonomous Solutions20:43 Uber's Abu Dhabi Analyst Day & Chinese Tech Risks 35:37 Waymo Announces Chicago & Charlotte as New Markets 40:55 Uber and Waymo's Waning Relationship 42:03 Waymo Surpasses 1 Million Fully Autonomous Freeway Miles43:56 Waymo Eyes the EU Expansion 46:32 Wayve's $1.2B Funding Round50:39 NVIDIA, Physical AI, & Humanoids 53:04 Next WeekRecorded on Friday, February 27, 2026--------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy is the definitive media brand covering the Autonomy Economy™.

O burnout costuma ser associado a ambientes corporativos e jornadas intensas de trabalho. Mas será que ele também pode acontecer em algo que, teoricamente, é lazer como videogame? Nos últimos meses, a discussão ganhou força após criadores de conteúdo relatarem esgotamento trabalhando com games, levantando dúvidas sobre saúde mental, pressão por desempenho e a transformação de hobbies em obrigações. No novo episódio do Podcast Canaltech, Gabriel Cavalheiro, conversa com Rafael Marques Psicólogo clínico, que explica o que realmente caracteriza a síndrome de burnout, como diferenciar cansaço temporário de um problema mais sério e por que profissionais de eSports, streamers e até jogadores casuais podem enfrentar esse tipo de esgotamento.

It's episode 222 of the AEW-Some Pod, and your favorite trio of a comedian and two horror hosts, Johnny Taylor, Diana Prince, and Gringo Fantastico, is here to break down the action inside of the Mission Ballroom in the "mile high city" of Denver, Colorado! Moxley goes face to face with Hologram's better side, El Clon. Swerve Strictland lets us all know his frustrations with AEW and one fan's "momma!" Gabe Kidd continues to take up air time. Kevin Knight and Mansoor have a high flying match up, while Brody King and Mark Davis have a clubbing session. The AEW Women's tag team title ends with concern, while unsurprisingly, MJF attempts to swerve the upcoming World Heavyweight championship match with a fake coin to manipulate before Hangman can stipulate.

O Galaxy S26 foi oficialmente apresentado pela Samsung durante o evento Galaxy Unpacked, e a nova geração chega com promessas de avanços importantes em inteligência artificial, privacidade e câmeras. Entre os destaques está uma tecnologia inédita de tela que reduz o ângulo de visão lateral, apelidada de “tela anti-curioso”, além de novos recursos de IA capazes de entender contexto e antecipar ações do usuário.

Bill Gurley, accomplished venture capitalist, longtime Silicon Valley “worrywart,” and early Uber backer, joins Kara Swisher to discuss how to build a career you love and the tech industry's sharp turn to the right.  Gurley's new book Runnin' Down a Dream, guides readers on how to find and nurture a truly fulfilling career — and his advice is the polar  opposite of Scott Galloway's “follow your talent, not your passion.”  Kara and Bill talk about how to find your fascination, and why the best careers are built through craft, peers, mentors, and a willingness to start at the bottom. They also dig into AI-related job loss anxiety and Gurley's growing focus on public policy — from regulatory capture to the concentration of power in the Mag 7.

You can be like them by clicking here: https://www.patreon.com/EVNewsDaily EV LIST PRICES FALL AS GAS GUZZLER PRICES RISENew EV list prices (excluding Tesla) dropped 2.3%, or roughly $1,500, from an average of $63,327 in September 2025 to $61,860 in January 2026, while average new gas-powered vehicle prices rose 2.5% to $47,427 over the same period. The sharpest cuts came after the federal EV tax credit expired, with the Hyundai IONIQ 5 leading the slide at a 13.8% drop of over $7,000, followed by the Chevrolet Equinox EV at nearly $4,000 off — six models in total posted drops above 5%. FORD TEASES EUROPE CAR RETURN AFTER FIESTA, FOCUSFord CEO Jim Farley used the Q4 2025 earnings call to signal "exciting plans" for passenger cars in Europe, framing the comeback as a selective, profitable return to specific segments rather than a volume land grab. Two new EVs built on Renault's Ampere platform are expected in the subcompact segment from the Ford–Renault partnership, with new passenger cars set to start arriving in 2027 under a new dedicated Europe passenger-car leadership role. UBER EXPANDS EV RIDES ACROSS EIGHT UK CITIESUber has rolled out its EV ride option to eight more UK cities — Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield, Edinburgh, Cambridge, Belfast and Merseyside — at standard UberX prices, after falling short of its pledge to run an all-electric London fleet by end-2025. Only 40% of London miles are now covered by EVs, with UK General Manager Andrew Brem citing charging access as "the biggest barrier," prompting Uber to announce driver support measures including discounted home and public charging in partnership with Pod Point. BMW TALKS PRICE FLOOR TO DODGE EU MINI DUTYBMW and the European Commission are in advanced talks to replace the EU's 20.7% countervailing duty on China-made Mini BEVs with a minimum import price agreement, according to Handelsblatt — covering the Mini Cooper Electric and Mini Aceman, both built at BMW's Zhangjiagang joint venture with Great Wall Motor. The approach would mirror the "price undertaking" the EU accepted from Volkswagen Anhui in early February, which freed the Cupra Tavascan from countervailing duties in exchange for a confidential price floor, volume cap and EU investment commitments. EU CITY BUS SALES HIT 60% ZERO-EMISSIONSix in ten new city buses registered across the EU in 2025 were zero-emission — 56% battery-electric and 4% fuel cell — a dramatic jump from just 12% when the Clean Vehicles Directive was adopted in 2019. Five member states hit 100% zero-emission city bus sales in 2025 (Bulgaria, Denmark, Estonia, Latvia and Slovenia), and Transport & Environment says a fully zero-emission EU city bus market is achievable as early as 2028.​MG2 SET FOR 2027 UK LAUNCH AT £20,000MG will enter the electric supermini segment in 2027 with the all-new MG2, targeting a starting price of around £20,000 (~$25,200), to take on rivals including the Renault 5, Citroën e-C3, Fiat Grande Panda and the incoming VW ID. Polo. The car will use the newer E3 architecture from the MG4 Urban, run front-wheel drive with a torsion-beam rear axle for cost efficiency, and feature a 12.8-inch touchscreen with physical climate controls — a reveal is expected in the second half of 2026. MG CONFIRMS MGS9 PHEV SEVEN-SEATER FOR UKMG will launch the MGS9 plug-in hybrid SUV in the UK later in 2026 as its new flagship, offering three full adult-sized rows and targeting rivals such as the Peugeot 5008, Kia Sorento and Skoda Kodiaq at a value-led price point. The model already holds a five-star Euro NCAP rating and could reach UK showrooms as early as summer 2026, extending MG's line-up to 11 models. AUSTRALIA NVES DATA SHOWS HYBRIDS DO THE HEAVY LIFTAustralia's National Vehicle Emissions Standard published its first half-year performance data (July–December 2025), showing EVs made up roughly 12% of new vehicles supplied, with about two-thirds of manufacturers — including BYD and Polestar — meeting their fleet-wide emissions targets. Petrol- and hybrid-focused brands such as Mazda and Hyundai fell short and face penalties if they don't improve, while the data reveals that near-term emissions gains are leaning more on efficient hybrids than on full EVs. LECTRON ADAPTERS WIN UL 2252 SAFETY CERTIFICATIONLectron has earned UL 2252 safety certification across its full range of EV charging adapters — covering J3400, CCS1 and J1772 in both AC and DC variants — with its two DC adapters handling up to 500 amps at 1,000 volts for peak power of 500 kW, and built-in thermal sensors that trigger derating if heat rises during fast charging. The certification comes as the North American charging landscape remains split between NACS and CCS1 on DC networks and J1772 on AC infrastructure, making a certified bridging adapter an increasingly essential tool for EV drivers navigating the transition.

Send a textA simple moment at a coffee shop, an unexpected Uber arrival, and a realization in the mirror all led to a deeper truth: not every life is a basic order, and not every delay means you're behind. Some things take longer because they are more layered.In this episode, we explore readiness, emotional capacity, and how repeated experiences can quietly harden our essence without us even noticing. We talk about how we become mirrors for each other, how growth can feel confronting, and why perception isn't always truth.This is a reminder that your life is not late — it is being prepared. Your timing is not behind, and the person you are becoming is not “too much.” You are simply being shaped for a life that requires depth, awareness, intention, and the strength to evolve without losing your softness, your standards, and your essence along the way.Support the show

Dan is the founder and CIO of D1 Capital Partners. He thinks about markets and businesses constantly, and has built a career entirely around that obsession. He manages over $30B across both public and private markets, with investments in SpaceX, OpenAI and Anthropic, and a public portfolio of names you may never have heard of. Dan shares the story of the short case he wrote on Orthodontic Centers of America and posted on Value Investors Club, which crashed the stock, and helped him land his first job. He shares why he backed Anthropic at a moment when many people told him it was the Lyft to OpenAI's Uber, what reading Dario Amodei's essays reminded him of Jeff Bezos, and how he thinks about LLM business models through the lens of Netflix and Spotify. We spend time on the extraordinarily stressful moment in early 2021 when GameStop hit the firm, and what Dan believes is the single biggest tail risk facing the global economy right now.

I told one small lie… and somehow ended up orchestrating three full blown ambushes across the city of Dallas. What started as a simple girls trip turned into wigs, disguises, fake Instacart drivers, a sign spinning maniac outside a restaurant, and an Uber driver blasting mariachi music while swerving to the beat. I had to keep everyone separated, stagger flights from the same city, invent a connection to Troy Aikman, and pray nobody compared notes. It was chaos. The fun kind. Bret's here too…  This one is messy, loud, and very on brand for what happens when women who've known each other for decades refuse to act their age.

We throw the notes out the window and just hit record the second Rhonda walks in the door — because we were in two different states all weekend and somehow didn't actually talk about any of it until now. Rhonda breaks down her girls' trip to Athens, Georgia for a Bailey Zimmerman concert, complete with rainy plans, Parents' Weekend crowds, questionable hotel choices, and an Uber ride that felt like the opening scene of a horror movie (but, spoiler, everyone survives). Meanwhile, Jeremy's weekend turns into a full-on Disney-to-DC sprint: Hollywood Studios and EPCOT festival bites, a detour to Disney Springs with friends, a peek at a two-person DVC tower studio at Riviera with a killer Spaceship Earth view, and a stop at Cake Bake Shop that ends with banana pudding magic. And then… it's off property chaos time. Think: smoky lobby, system outage, no key card, a toilet that won't flush, and a very real “time is money” reminder that ties right back into our on-property vs off-property debate from last episode. It's funny, it's honest, it's chaotic in the best way — and it's basically you sitting at the kitchen table with us.
