Eli Lilly CEO Dave Ricks joins Scott Galloway to explain how GLP-1 drugs represent a paradigm shift in treating obesity and its downstream chronic diseases, while detailing the company's strategy to expand access through direct-to-consumer pricing and Medicaid partnerships.
Google DeepMind researcher Brendon Dillon explains text diffusion as a parallel alternative to autoregressive language models that iteratively denoises random tokens rather than generating sequentially, offering significantly lower latency and unique capabilities like self-correction and adaptive computation, though currently limited by high serving costs for large batches.
Financial content creator Caleb Hammer joins Joe Rogan to break down America's $1.6 trillion debt crisis, systemic government waste, and the stark contrast between boomer wealth opportunities and modern financial traps, while advocating for simple index fund investing over influencer-driven speculation.
