Today, I’m finally announcing Speed Dial (@speeddialtv). The tech show at the speed of now. Every week, I break down the biggest stories in AI, venture, culture, and markets. Then I pick up the phone and call the smartest people in the room: investors, founders, entertainers, and athletes. Together, we figure out what matters and where it’s all going. Follow @speeddialtv on YouTube, Spotify, and wherever you get your podcasts. Link in bio. 🔗 Speed Dial podcast, speeddialtv, tech show, tech news, AI, venture capital, markets, culture, founders, investors, athletes, entertainment #venturecapital #podcast #artificialintelligence #technews #startup

At SpaceX’s test site in Texas, the new Roadster flipped upside down on a ramp, used thrusters to clear Tesla’s own fleet, and hit 0 to 60 in a claimed 0.81 seconds. Production? 2028. That’s 11 years after Tesla first teased it. A car you can’t buy for 2 more years isn’t the product. Red Bull figured this out. It doesn’t sell sugar water, it sells a feeling. Almost 14 billion cans a year, and the money goes to cliff divers and a jump from the edge of space. This wasn’t a product launch. It was a brand relaunch.

Maia 300 is built for inference, the part of AI that runs every time you send a prompt. Microsoft says it gets 40% more tokens per megawatt than leading GPU systems. Every hyperscaler is now designing its own silicon. Google has TPUs, Amazon has Trainium, OpenAI is building with Broadcom. But designing a chip isn’t making one. Maia 300 runs on TSMC’s 2-nanometer process, in the same fabs that build Nvidia’s Blackwell. TSMC’s September revenue was up almost 55% from a year ago. The chip war has a lot of contenders. It only has one landlord.

Stay tuned. Bout to announce the next leg up. 🚀

Prosecutors say he hid a thumb-sized recorder behind a TV in an executive conference room. He’s charged, not convicted, and OpenAI says there’s no indication anything was taken. The same day, the DOJ charged 14 people in a North Korean scheme that placed IT workers inside more than 70 US companies. The frontier labs will lock down, and they should. They’re building technology with real national security stakes. But America was built on meritocracy. 59% of America’s billion-dollar startups have an immigrant founder. If every case like this makes foreign talent look like a liability, the cost lands on the engineers who came here to build. That’s the bigger fallout.
