Is AI really in a bubble, or is the story more complicated?

In this episode, we cut through the noise and show why the “AI bubble” headlines miss the real story. Innovation is accelerating, usage is skyrocketing, and compute power, not demand, is the bottleneck.

We compare GPT-5 Thinking, Claude, Cursor, and OpenRouter in real workflows, discuss the rise of dynamic artifacts that replace static dashboards, and explain how agent loops make AI insights more reliable. 

We’ll also look at data center growth, security concerns in the agent era, and how platforms like OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic are building ecosystems that will monetize AI far beyond chat. 

If you work with data and AI, this is your roadmap to what’s really happening.
