This week: Larry Summers has stepped down from his public positions following the release of unsavory emails he exchanged with Jeffrey Epstein. <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/did:plc:zxqezqfhjwidbrsvk66ded57">Felix Salmon</a>, <a href="https://www.elizabethspiers.com/">Elizabeth Spiers</a>, and <a href="https://www.axios.com/authors/epeck">Emily Peck</a> discuss Summers’ correspondence with the infamous sex trafficker, the veracity of his “genius” reputation, and his beef with Felix. Then, Meta has won its anti-trust case, highlighting the current struggle to regulate Big Tech. The hosts examine the landscape of anti-trust efforts in the US and whether it is the correct tool for regulating tech behemoths. Then, everyone is talking about the “AI bubble” right now, but what does that actually mean? The hosts break down the state of the AI market and whether or not calling it a “bubble” is the right way to think about it.
