The Prof G Pod (Scott Galloway)

Wharton professor Ethan Mollick argues that while AI CEOs catastrophize about future existential risks to justify funding, the immediate disruption is already here—half of American workers secretly use AI for 3x productivity gains, particularly in coding and writing, yet companies fail to capture this value because they haven't redesigned workflows to handle the output.

Impact Theory

The post-WWII global order was designed to contain the USSR through a security-for-trade bargain, but it became structurally obsolete after the Cold War ended; now, irreversible demographic decline is collapsing the economic foundations of globalism, with Trump merely officiating the inevitable break rather than causing it.

Lenny's Podcast

OpenAI's head of engineering Sherwin Wu reveals that AI now writes nearly all code at OpenAI, transforming engineers from line-by-line coders into 'sorcerers' managing fleets of agents, while warning that current AI capabilities represent the worst these models will ever be as we approach an era of one-person billion-dollar startups.
