<p>New studio set up: the squad now records from a parked Tesla in the middle of a rainstorm while Sam is on the beach, and somehow it turned into one of our favorite episodes.

Then we get into China cracking deep ultraviolet lithography, what it means for ASML and the AI race, why AI demand still isn&#39;t slowing, Lilian Weng&#39;s move from Thinking Machines to OpenAI, and Sam&#39;s theory that Silicon Valley has developed an Oppenheimer complex.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Chapters:</strong></p><p>0:00 Episode trailer</p><p>1:23 Episode start</p><p>9:02 Meta&#39;s Ad Campaign Rejects The Doomers</p><p>11:14 Zuckerberg&#39;s Optimism Blitz Actually Lands</p><p>13:11 AI&#39;s Dark Side Raises Easier Money</p><p>15:04 Sam&#39;s Bot Read 4GB Of Dad&#39;s Journals</p><p>17:28 Nobody Wants To Be Anthropic</p><p>18:56 Anthropic Runs On Spite For OpenAI</p><p>21:10 OpenAI Was The Original Evil Empire</p><p>22:57 Meta Is Still A Centralized Ad Company</p><p>24:46 Decentralization Loses Without A Jedi</p><p>26:01 Apple Won On Politics, Not Technology</p><p>27:16 Meta Earnings Miss On Lawsuits And Severance</p><p>28:33 China Cracks DUV, ASML Takes The Hit</p><p>29:57 Execs Privately Reject The China AI War</p><p>32:39 The Compute Debate Gavin Baker Started</p><p>39:13 X Is The Tech Town Square Now</p><p>46:57 Lilian Weng Quits For Health, Joins OpenAI</p><p>53:50 AI Is A Crisis Of Meaning</p><p>54:57 Book The Conference Before You&#39;re Invited</p><p><br></p><p><strong>We’re also on ↓</strong></p><p>X: https://twitter.com/moreorlesspod</p><p>Instagram: https://instagram.com/moreorless</p><p>YouTube: https://youtu.be/PBGC6CjfdtM</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Connect with us here:</strong></p><p>1) Sam Lessin: https://x.com/lessin</p><p>2) Dave Morin: https://x.com/davemorin</p><p>3) Jessica Lessin: https://x.com/Jessicalessin</p><p>4) Brit Morin: https://x.com/brit</p>
