NVIDIA Cosmos Reason 2 enables physical AI systems to interpret the physical world through structured reasoning and common sense. The session highlights Milestone Systems' deployment of fine-tuned models for smart city traffic analytics, achieving automated incident detection and reporting at city scale.
AI has created a unique capital flywheel where frontier model companies raise billions pre-monetization to buy compute, convert dollars directly into capabilities via scaling laws, and vertically integrate into applications—potentially outspending and absorbing the entire ecosystem built on top of them.
Venture capital is concentrating unprecedented capital into frontier AI as Anthropic raises $30 billion at a $380 billion valuation while achieving historically unmatched 10x annual growth rates, while traditional SaaS companies face a 'gravity well' of declining valuations as Corporate America mandates AI adoption regardless of immediate ROI.

Jeff Cavaliere joins Andrew Huberman to detail science-based exercise optimization, covering the ideal 60/40 split between strength and conditioning, the importance of mind-muscle connection through his 'cramp test,' objective recovery monitoring via grip strength, and strategic timing for flexibility work.
Elon Musk claims AI will make retirement savings obsolete within 10-20 years by providing universal services, but Anthony Pompliano argues this is reckless advice.
