Episode 0 of the new Weekly HyperChange Podcast. In this initial episode I start by riffing on the new Terafab announcement by Elon Musk, and then am joined by Josh West to give us an on the ground report from Austin, TX about the Tesla Robotaxi Network. Plus a bunch of Open AI news, the Starcloud funding round and more schemes!! Let me know what you think of this new format in the comments! And leave any topics for next week :)Josh West on X: https://x.com/JoshWest2470:00 Intro & Rambling3:03 Elon Musk Announces Terafab by Tesla + SpaceX8:10 NVIDIA Stock’s Generational Run9:40 Terafab’s Geopolitical Implications12:40 Designing AI Chips for Space14:40 Josh West Joins The Show15:59 Taking 7 Unsupervised Robotaxi Rides In A Row20:02 Waymo vs Robotaxi Self Driving Car Race22:38 Austin Is The new Silicon Valley25:22 Cybercab Production Begin In April27:18 SpaceX One Step Closer To IPO29:00 Will Tesla buy SpaceX or will SpaceX buy Tesla?30:26 Starcloud Worth Over $1B34:45 NASA Artemis II Mission35:33 OpenAI Raises $122B42:38 OpenAI Acquires TBPN45:36 Startup To Watch: GRU Space47:57 We Need A Space Farming Startup!49:00 Future of Humans and Plants/TreesMy X:   / gfilche  HyperChange Patreon :)   / hyperchange   Disclaimer: I'm long Tesla, SpaceX & Starcloud.

Just got back from Austin, TX and there were Waymo's EVERYWHERE. Calling them was super easy through the Uber app, and surprisingly cheap. I had multiple rides across town that were under $10. Everytime the Waymo was super clean and was a perfect experience. It felt like I was living in the future. Waymo is officially at 500,000 rides per week now, a ~$500M revenue run-rate. I wonder when Tesla's Robotaxi network will catchup?? Will the upcoming Cybercab launch be a gamechanger? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below.0:00 Waymo Hits 500,000 Rides/Week4:18 Waymo Worth $126B in latest funding round5:11 When Will Waymo IPO?6:26 Tesla Robotaxi Update7:52 Tesla’s Secret Self-Driving Advantage8:21 CyberCab Production Starts in AprilMy X:   / gfilche  HyperChange Patreon :)   / hyperchange   Disclaimer: I'm long Tesla stock nothing in this show is financial advice.

I read The Hidden Life of Trees by Peter Wohlleben and it totally changed my perspective on these incredible plants that surround us! Trees communicate with each other, live in families and can be thousands of years old. We've been living in harmony with them for millions of years and it's not only until recently that we understood how complex they are. My Moonshot proposal is that we need to design cities around trees. They provide incredible passive cooling, and numerous health benefits like clean air, happier people, more energy efficient cities and so much more! Not to mention our cities of the future would look insanely cool! Imagine Austin, Texas with more trees! It's already too hot there, this is the perfect solution!Hidden Life of Trees book on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/177...My X:   / gfilche  HyperChange Patreon :)   / hyperchange

An interview with Amy (@_SFTahoe) & Tesla Larry about the upcoming Terafab announcement and potential Tesla/SpaceX/xAI merger. Since Larry's initial theory about merging Tesla & SpaceX, a ton of progress has been made in that direction. SpaceX has acquired xAI and we could be months away from an IPO. Collaborations between the new SpaceX/XAI and Tesla are heating up, with the new AI chips (Terafab), satellites, Grok and so much more. At this point the merger seems inevitable ... what do you think?Amy on X: https://x.com/_SFTahoeLarry on X: https://x.com/TeslaLarry0:45 SpaceX to $100T2:30 SpaceX Plans To Be 10X Bigger Than NVIDIA5:20 The Terafab is Coming!

Last week Starcloud CEO Philip Johnston confirmed that they will be launching a Bitcoin mining rig in space later this year. This will be the first Bitcoin mined in space and potentially one of the most lucrative use cases for orbital datacenters. This could have huge implications to the Bitcoin network's future decentralization and resiliency. Now this has got me curious ... will SpaceX/xAI get into Bitcoin mining in space as well? Especially with the upcoming launch of XMoney? It seems like there is a lot of potential here. What do you think? Is the hype real? Will the majority of Bitcoin mining move to space??0:00 Starcloud CEO Confirms First Bitcoin Mining In Space2:04 How Mining In Space Helps Bitcoin3:13 Will SpaceX/xAI Do Bitcoin Mining In Space For Xmoney4:27 Bitcoin Mining In Space Could Be Very Profitable4:55 Is Bitcoin A Distraction For SpaceX?6:57 What’s The Future of Bitcoin In Space?My X:   / gfilche  HyperChange Patreon :)   / hyperchange   Disclaimer: This is not financial advice.
