Scott Nolan, founder of General Matter, explains why uranium enrichment is the single bottleneck holding back the nuclear industry: Russia is the only commercial supplier of HALEU, a US import ban takes effect January 1, 2028, and General Matter is racing to build a new enrichment facility in Paducah, Kentucky to deliver fuel by the end of the decade.
Sam Altman sits down with John Collison for a wide-ranging, beer-fueled conversation covering OpenAI's 'PHP week' vulnerability hunt, the coming global software re-architecture, agent teams and compute economics, the Navier-Stokes math proofs and their melancholy side effects, the compute shortage and OpenAI's custom chip, recursive self-improvement, personal agents, and the future of agentic commerce.
Scott Kirby, CEO of United Airlines, discusses how counterintuitive bets during the pandemic—like a massive aircraft order and investing in Starlink Wi-Fi—positioned United to dominate a stagnant airline industry. By rejecting expert consensus, embracing technology, and focusing on customer experience through AI and real-time communication, United is creating lasting brand loyalty in a sector long seen as commoditized.
John Collison and Toto Wolff explore the intricacies of talent identification, team culture, and innovation in Formula 1, drawing parallels between motorsport and tech entrepreneurship.

Ulysses, co-founded by Will O'Brien, is building a scalable fleet of autonomous underwater robots to transform ocean operations—from seagrass restoration to defense and offshore energy—by drastically reducing costs and enabling persistent, intelligent robotic presence in the world’s oceans. The company’s modular, vertically integrated platform aims to unlock a $10 trillion maritime economy by making underwater work routine, affordable, and scalable.
Meta, led by Mark Zuckerberg and Alexandr Wang, has launched Muse Wonder, a frontier-class AI model designed as a personal and professional superintelligence agent. The model emphasizes multimodal capabilities, active memory, persistence, and domain expertise, with a focus on consumer usability and privacy. Despite massive upfront costs—tens of billions of dollars in compute and infrastructure—Meta believes Muse will be self-sustaining through subscriptions, commerce, and enterprise adoption.
Snap CEO Evan Spiegel joins John at the pub for a deep dive into Snap's "crucible moment" of 2026: the long-awaited consumer launch of Spectacles. Evan explains why he believes the smartphone has become an isolating legacy device and how true AR glasses represent the first step toward making computing human again. They discuss the technical hurdles of fitting a spatial computer into a glasses form factor, why Snap built its own OS from scratch, and how Claude is transforming their software development, with over two-thirds of Snap’s new code now written by AI. Plus, the pair dig into the complex reality of teen phone usage, the distinction between social and media, and why Norway was the first country to embrace Snapchat.Timestamps Snap’s crucible moment Specs AR as the right form factor Stablecoin payouts on Stripe Monetizing the camera Social media vs messaging Content moderation Snap’s evolution
DoorDash's success stemmed from an obsessive focus on product quality, retention, and solving the full logistics stack early, rather than relying on capital to win.
