SpaceX, AI and Mega-IPOs: What’s Really Happening Behind the Scenes

Are AI labs building sustainable businesses or exposing a deeper economic tension? In this episode of the BIG BANG Tech Report, Jens de Buhr and Alvin Wang Graylin discuss the economics behind AGI claims, the pressure around AI business models, and the question of who benefits if AI becomes core infrastructure. They examine cheaper AI use, global competition from open-source models, robotics in China, and why governance should focus on human value rather than machine ownership.
