When AI Agents Start Building the Protocol | Recall Labs

The DCo Podcast

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. AI Skill Markets are the New Talent Pools: Protocols can now create bespoke competitions to source top-tier AI agents for specialized tasks, bypassing traditional R&D cycles and finding the best "minds" for the job.
  2. The Protocol Will Build Itself: Recall's endgame is a self-improving system where AI agents compete to write and enhance the code of the very protocol they operate on, blurring the line between user and creator.
  3. Performance Becomes the Contract: The future of AI work is a meritocracy where competitive arenas are directly tied to real capital and business lines, automatically allocating work to the most capable agents.

Sacks, Andreessen & Horowitz: How America Wins the AI Race Against China

a16z

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. Unleash Innovation to Win. America's path to AI supremacy is through deregulation, abundant energy, and aggressive global exports. Over-regulating our own companies simply hands markets and momentum to China.
  2. Fight for an Open AI Ecosystem. The most pressing AI threat is not existential risk but the creation of a centralized, Orwellian control system. This is enabled by regulatory capture and "woke AI" mandates disguised as safety.
  3. Crypto Needs Clarity, Not Chaos. While AI requires a light touch, the crypto industry needs the opposite: clear, stable, and legislated rules. Ending the "regulation by enforcement" era is critical to bringing innovation back onshore and establishing the U.S. as the world's crypto capital.

Why Humans Are Still Powering AI [Sponsored]

Machine Learning Street Talk

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. Human data is the critical asset. The most valuable—and least glamorous—layer of the AI stack is human intelligence. Its scale, importance, and economic value will only grow.
  2. The future is human-in-the-loop. The next phase of AI development will be defined by agent-human interaction, where automated systems can call upon verified human experts on demand for review and guidance.
  3. Expertise will be licensed. The economic model is shifting toward a future where human expertise can be licensed, allowing individuals to earn passive income for contributing their knowledge to improve AI, much like Spotify pays artists for their music.

All things AI w @altcap @sama & @satyanadella. A Halloween Special. 🎃🔥BG2 w/ Brad Gerstner

Bg2 Pod

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. Power is the New Bottleneck: The critical constraint in the AI race is no longer chips, but energy and the physical infrastructure to deploy them at scale.
  2. Microsoft's Multi-Layered Bet: Microsoft's value from the OpenAI partnership extends far beyond its equity, encompassing exclusive Azure services, massive IP advantages, and a halo effect that pulls enterprise workloads from competitors.
  3. The Golden Age of Margin Expansion: AI will enable a new productivity curve where companies grow revenue far faster than headcount, fundamentally reshaping workflows and corporate economics.

Marc Andreessen and Ben Horowitz on the State of AI

a16z

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. AI's creative power is judged against an impossible standard. Focus on its ability to remix and generate at a scale that surpasses 99.9% of human output, which is where the true value lies.
  2. The future of AI is not just software but hardware. The next battleground is robotics, where China's industrial ecosystem provides a massive advantage that could eclipse the US software lead.
  3. The ultimate AI products haven't been invented yet. The biggest opportunities lie not in perfecting today's chatbots but in creating the entirely new user experiences that will define the next decade.

(Real World) Data is the New Oil with 375ai | Harry Dewhirst

Proof of Coverage Media

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. Surgical Precision Over Brute Force: 375ai’s model proves that DePIN isn’t just about network size. Strategic placement of high-power hardware can deliver more valuable data with a fraction of the infrastructure.
  2. Go Where the Money Is: Instead of building a demand side from scratch, 375ai is plugging directly into existing data marketplaces, giving them instant access to enterprise giants and a clear path to revenue.
  3. Revenue Directly Fuels the Token: The 80% buy-and-burn mechanism is a powerful flywheel. As data sales grow, so does the direct value accrual to EAT token holders, creating one of the most direct links between utility and tokenomics in the space.

What Is Recall Network? The CEO Explains

The DCo Podcast

AI

The Fed's Hawkish Cut & The Financial Hunger Games | Weekly Roundup

Forward Guidance

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. **The Fed Is Trapped:** Powell is trying to project strength, but the underlying trend is toward more liquidity. The pivot to buying T-bills is a form of stealth QE designed to keep the system functioning.
  2. **Markets Are A Rigged Game:** Forget fundamentals. Public markets are now a positioning game defined by extreme concentration in Big Tech and speculative retail frenzies, widening the gap between Wall Street and Main Street.
  3. **The AI Boom Is A Double-Edged Sword:** While driving incredible earnings, the AI buildout is transforming Big Tech into a riskier, debt-fueled, capex-heavy industry, making the entire economy dangerously dependent on a handful of stocks.

"Is there an AI bubble?” Gavin Baker and David George

a16z

AI
Key Takeaways:
  1. **It's Not a Bubble, It's a Race.** The AI buildout is a rational, ROI-positive arms race funded by cash-rich giants. Unlike the dot-com era’s "dark fiber," today’s GPUs are fully utilized, generating immediate returns.
  2. **Sacrifice Margins or Die.** SaaS companies must abandon their obsession with 90% gross margins. In the AI era, lower margins signal that customers are actually using your product. Embrace them or become irrelevant.
  3. **The New Outcome Economy is Coming.** Business models will pivot from subscriptions to outcomes. AI will enable services to be priced on measurable results, from resolving a customer support ticket to booking the perfect vacation, squeezing inefficiency out of the market.
