Founded in 2023, San-Francisco based Ulysses is on a mission to protect our oceans. The company has just announced a $46M Series A led by a16z, after early success of their underwater drones. The company's flagship product is Mako, a configurable under water drone who's first mission is to restore seagrass on the ocean floor. I love the vision of this company to protect the oceans and am rooting for them!!Ulysses website: https://www.theoceancompany.com/

My conversation with Jon, who takes the role of confused British guy of the week (joking). He emailed me about coming on the show, and wow, he crushed it helping scheme on everything Terafab, from Intel's relationship with Tesla to the AI bubble. This was a great chat. Let me know your thoughts in the comments below!My X:   / gfilche  HyperChange Patreon :)   / hyperchange   Disclaimer: I'm long Tesla/SpaceX/XAI and nothing in this show is financial advice.

Tesla's Cybercab has officially started production. This comes just as the Robotaxi business has expanded to Houston and Dallas (including unsupervised). Tesla's Robotaxi business did ~1M paid miles in Q1, doubling from Q4 25, and looks like it's about to go exponential as new cities ramp and vehicles expand. This is super exciting and I believe we are on the cusp of a massive acceleration of Tesla's Robotaxi business. Many investors are worried about Elon's comments on the conference call, insinuating a slow rollout, but brick by brick Tesla continues to lay the foundation for one of the largest businesses of all-time. What are your thoughts??My X:   / gfilche  HyperChange Patreon :)   / hyperchange   Disclaimer: I'm long Tesla stock nothing in this show is financial advice.

SpaceX announced a $10B partnership with Cursor AI, and a $60B option to buy the company outright. This caught a ton of people by surprise (including myself) when it was announced. But upon further investigation, this could end up bring a brilliant move. SpaceX / XAI gets to use the excess compute of it's Colossus datacenter and immediately is in the race with Anthropic's Claude (and even OpenAI's CODEX) for the best AI coding agent. Coming just months before the SpaceX IPO, this could boost excitement around the deal, if SpaceX/XAI has a new enterprise coding AI revenue stream that's exploding ... Reports indicate Cursor is already at a $2B revenue run-rate and growing rapidly. That would be ~10% of SpaceX's revenue, and could significantly accelerate revenue growth projections. What are your thoughts on the deal??? My X:   / gfilche  HyperChange Patreon :)   / hyperchange   Disclaimer: I'm long SpaceX/XAI, nothing in this show is financial advice.

Tesla Q1 2026 earnings are hot off the press, and the biggest announcement wasn't in the results but on the conference call. Elon Musk and Tesla are now upping CAPEX guidance to $25B in 2026! That's right, they want to spend $25BILLION this year on investments on AI and robotics. This means they will be losing free cash flow and could mean they will have to raise more capital in the future. All to fund ambitious projects like Cybercab, Robotaxi, Optimus training, Terafab AI Chips & more! What are your thoughts on this massive news!??!My X:   / gfilche  HyperChange Patreon :)   / hyperchange   Disclaimer: Nothing in this show is financial advice I'm long Tesla.
