But this isn’t just about Nvidia or AI. It’s about how America is battling its own assumptions about innovation, efficiency, and progress. In this video, I'll talk about (1) how DeepSeek built a groundbreaking AI model for just $6 million (2) why U.S. tech companies like Meta and OpenAI are spending billions—and if that’s sustainable (3) the impact of federal funding freezes and policy decisions on America’s innovation pipeline (4) why the U.S. might be stuck in a “cold war” with itself over how progress should look and (5) what this means for the future of AI, talent allocation, and global competition.DeepSeek isn’t just disrupting the AI industry; it’s forcing us to ask some hard questions about how we measure success.00:00 Intro00:58 Our Broader Challenges03:08 What Is DeepSeek?05:00 How did they do it?05:27 Innovation08:40 The State of Tech11:49 Financial Engineering12:58 Talent15:45 Final ThoughtsEIG paper: https://eig.org/exceptional-by-design/Music Used'Shadows and Dust' by Scott Buckley - released under CC-BY 4.0. www.scottbuckley.com.au 'Nightfall' by Scott Buckley - released under CC-BY 4.0. www.scottbuckley.com.au 'Incantation' by Scott Buckley - released under CC-BY 4.0. www.scottbuckley.com.au'Shoulders Of Giants' by Scott Buckley - released under CC-BY 4.0. www.scottbuckley.com.au 'Uprising' by Scott Buckley - released under CC-BY 4.0. www.scottbuckley.com.au 'Anna's Theme' by Scott Buckley - released under CC-BY 4.0. www.scottbuckley.com.au'Parasite' by Scott Buckley - released under CC-BY 4.0. www.scottbuckley.com.au 'Shoulders Of Giants' by Scott Buckley - released under CC-BY 4.0. www.scottbuckley.com.au DISCLAIMER: This video does not provide investment or economic advice and is not professional advice (legal, accounting, tax).  The owner of this content is not an investment advisor. ...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/9L7Z8eLaXgIxTTm8CtFGqspOjKgR503kPd8-Dl8TwDw/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzQ2NDQxLzE2OTg2/NzU2NzAtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
