Today’s show:

Factory, a Sequoia-backed producer of AI agents for programming, raised $50 million at a $300 million valuation. So Jason and Alex are wondering… how much capital is TOO MUCH?

We’re going deep on a question that often perplexes founders: How would weigh a HUGE potential market against STIFF pre-existing competition.

PLUS that Neon app that records your calls deleted itself, why AI ISN’T taking away all the radiology jobs yet, how inherent biases impact everyone’s view of the economy, ChatGPT may be getting ads very soon, and MUCH MUCH MORE.

Timestamps:

(17:10) Wait, why ISN’T AI taking jobs away from radiologists?
