  1. So I want us to prepare and use what we learn from individual cases to improve the process, you know, in totality, you know, bring financial clearance, utilization review, the physician advisor, CDI, coding, and appeals all together at the same table. And to really understand those recurring issues. Where are pain points? And decides who owns each step and will know at the end, will know if the change helped, if we start plugging some of those gaps. One thing, one other thing is the speed of technology adoption. You know, I'm really excited about AI, but I don't want us to confuse purchasing a tool with improving a workflow. We always, you know, need to have that that thought process in mind that we need to evaluate its improvement. What is it going to improve and is it going to have an impact? How is information validated? How errors are going to be identified? Who is accountable for acting on the output of the tool?

  2. I mean, it means that you can set up a separate account and you can plug in your agent using a variety of different agentic providers. And then we also are providing different MCPs. So what's an MCP? So I'm bad with this, like something protocol, but essentially connects you to different data points that can get you data that you need. And we're providing that at a subscription model. So you can sort of all in the app, you can connect to outside data and have help your agent make decisions.

  3. If I may get back to the point that I would like I want to make a plug for a really important TV show. No, a TV show from the wonderful folks at Skydance. I think everybody needs, must—

  4. The distance between delivery and installation is so severe that Business Insider found an email where an engineer said that they saw no clear forecasted path to install an indeterminately sized order of GPUs, and another saying that Amazon will be taking delivery of $3 billion worth of GPUs every month for the foreseeable future. Now, some will dispute my accusation of channel stuffing, suggesting that hyperscalers are the ones making the early purchases for planning reasons, but that That just doesn't make sense to me. And the phrase "compete more for scarce resources" is the tell. Riddle me this, Batman: if Amazon, Google, and Microsoft, and many other companies, do not have the power to plug in the chips, or the data centers aren't being built, why are the GPUs scarce? What's making them scarce?

  5. The, the cool thing was I remember we had secure video. We used to call them civets, SVTC, secure VTCs. There's always a different name for it, but a 6 a.m. and a 6 p.m. or maybe it was 7 p.m., 7 a.m., 7 p.m., something like that. At like twice daily calls with the whole interagency. So, you know, Department of Defense, State, Justice, everybody's plugged in. And man, I am just running the show from the White House Situation Room, just like it's like command and control central. And I remember very vividly the department— like I said, the Department of Justice, I said, okay, listen guys, here's the deal. We're gonna have one of two outcomes here. We're gonna have live pirates or dead pirates? If we have live pirates, where are we prosecuting them? If we have dead pirates, how are we going to bury them so that we don't have a tactical victory but a strategic loss? And they're like, oh, we don't really have an answer to that. Okay, okay, good. I'm glad you don't have the answer, but we got to think ahead and see around corners and think about what will happen.

  6. That's right. Yeah, yeah. But when, um— but girl, I, I, I love it, Madeline. I, I think you— I, I think there's a nudge in you to do this. And again, if all three of those things check the box— I mean, I'm not kidding, if you find a single mom and you can ask ask— I don't know if you guys have like a home church or where you are plugged in in the community, but if you can find a young single mom maybe who's even around your age and a new car, that literally will change someone's life. Especially somebody coming out of like a cycle of poverty and they're trying to get on their feet, just a hard situation.

  7. So in this case, the bumper case, which is, uh, ugly but the only acceptable case, um, the other case is I keep calling it the old lady case, um, So if you— I don't know if you all can see this. I hope you can see this. The— this is the top of this case, and it has a notch for the Touch ID button and the camera control button. And for all— like, everything you know about cases, that's the bottom. Yes, because that's where you would plug in the charger, right? Like, everything you know about everything suggests this is the bottom. So every time you open it, you're like, I'm going to put the bottom at the bottom. That's actually the top.

  8. Well, I would just say the end consumer here, and that was the breakthrough of Q1 of this year, is corporate America, right? Anthropic plugged into corporate America and corporate America is saying, I want to spend money on AI. So yeah, there's little parts of, you know, the ecosystem, like I said, in the orchestra, the violin player may have broken a few strings or maybe someone has a stroke or whatever, but you know, it, it, it's, it, the overall trend is, is the same. And there's a lot of discipline in the public markets. And probably I would say, and I don't have a metric and I didn't ask Christian about this ahead of time, there's more discipline in the public markets, I think, in a way, than in the private markets right now. I hate to use the word bubble, but I did. That's why I wanted to bring Christian on, because it's like both feet on the gas as far as the private market AI trade is.

  10. And we need to make sure that the privileges that we provide this autonomous system is minimal and that we constantly monitor it. We have to create extremely secure technology to make sure that we could develop these agents and deploy these agents safely. That was Jensen Huang earlier today in Berlin doing GTC Berlin, showing off some new plug-and-play Vera Rubin racks. Stock's back above 219.

  11. Totally. And I'm, I'm sure, you know, you get the same number of emails, if not more, of students who are interested, but also professionals who are lawyers, who are public policy experts, who are reading these documents, who are trying to make sense of this stuff and want to be engaged. I'll put in a shameless plug that we, we are, uh, hiring for, uh, Vanderbilt Policy Accelerator for AI policy specifically. And we want someone with technical expertise, right? We, we want someone who can bring that kind of depth to, to what they're doing. And I don't start from the premise that the only people who can make sense of what's happening is someone who has explicitly built an LLM or an agentic system. I think most people can become proficient in what's going on. You need some of those people. I want some of those people working for the government, but we need to start. And the other, look, a related criticism that I think is legitimate, that I think is worth talking about, is some of these investigations, when the government does them, can take a long time.

  12. People have rightly, profitably gone levered long the bottlenecks. And That worked because it didn't require you to have a view of the economics of everything downstream from those bottlenecks. You didn't care. You just knew that the AI buildout was so huge and so gigantic and there was all this funding liquidity coming at it that, you know what, you just sit back, pardon the pun, plug yourself in to your favorite AI picks and shovels trade and just sit with it. And it rolls on. And now that the buildout has become so leveraged, the downstream economics of this, the cash flow that you're expecting back, will become really material for every investor. Now, not immediately, but it will become material.

  13. I think there's a lot more going on here than just, oh, we don't have them, don't have the space to plug them in. And the Amazon story kind of elaborates on that too.
    Ed Zitron · Prof G Markets · Is Nvidia Selling More Chips Than Anyone Can Use? · 2026-10-21
  14. Yeah, it sounds like what's happening is it's not that they're not buying the chips. They are buying the chips. The question is, where do the chips go once they've bought them? And the implication of this news— and to be clear, we actually don't know how many chips are in the warehouse. We don't know for how long they're gonna stay in the warehouse, but it does align quite closely with something that you have been putting forward, which is that it seems like the data centers are running into problems and it means that they have all of these chips that they can't actually plug in and then use. Clearly there seems to be some sort of mismatch between the rate at which data centers are being constructed and the rate at which hyperscalers are buying chips. My question, why is that bad? Why is it a problem in your view if there is this mismatch, which could, you know, some, some would argue this is what happens in construction. You buy things, timelines don't match up. Why is this a problem in your view?

  15. But we as the public, we want to know that information. And public polls give us that information. They can prevent spin. They can influence policy. They can give us a sense of who our fellow Americans even are. And for Barbara, this is the most exciting time of the year. Where the pollsters finally get to check their work. Hey, a quick plug before we go. We are doing another Ask an Economist virtual event for our NPR+ supporters. This one is on AI and the job market. Could AI wipe out white-collar jobs, or could it transform and grow the workforce? The Indicator's Adrienne Ma will discuss all All of that with Daron Acemoglu, a Nobel Prize-winning MIT professor, and Erik Brynjolfsson, the director of the Stanford Digital Economy Lab. During this live Q&A, you're gonna have the chance to put your questions directly to our guests. It's on Wednesday, October 28th at 3:00 PM Eastern, noon Pacific, over Zoom.
