STOP SEARCHING. START DELEGATING.

Is AI moving us from the attention economy to the trust economy? And if so, what does that mean for Google, for Anthropic’s IPO, for children growing up with AI as their first confidant – and for the bubble debate that’s getting louder by the day? In this episode of the BIG BANG Tech Report, Jens de Buhr and Alvin Wang Graylin run through a packed agenda: the shift from “help me” to “do it for me”; whether Google must kill search before someone else does; the Buffett Indicator at 240 % of US GDP; what Anthropic’s rumoured IPO would actually reveal about the economics of frontier AI labs; why China has already won physical AI while digital AI may end up being a global public good; and how a laser weapon built by five people shows what startups can now do that was impossible before. The episode closes with Alvin’s most unexpected research project: heading to Burning Man to test whether its gifting economy could serve as a proto-economic model for a post-AGI world – and whether eighty thousand people in the Nevada desert can teach us something about what comes after productivity.
