Today’s show: Find out why it’s important to “get curious,” and more deep founder insights on a new TWiST. Jason and Alex are back with a look at Robot vs. Human violence spilling out into the streets, Elon Musk’s vision for humanoid robots, and a reconsideration of Apple’s open-source AI models. Is the hardware giant not getting enough credit for its smaller-scale innovations? Plus Grok has another hit model, AND a chat with Scale Social founder Runbin Dong about the importance of knowing your worth.
