  Live from Berlin: THE 6 AI TRENDS THAT WILL CHANGE EVERYTHING

  Sep 23, 202642 min

  For the first time ever, the BIG BANG Tech Report went live – on stage, in front of 11,000 people at the BIG BANG KI FESTIVAL in Berlin. No screens between them, no time zones separating them. Just Jens de Buhr and Alvin Wang Graylin, a clicker, and one of the biggest conversations in tech. In this special live episode, they work through six AI megatrends shaping 2027: the AI investment bubble and what entrepreneurs should do before the winter comes; AI as colleague, manager and eventual CEO – and who carries the liability; the creative industry’s $2,000 NBA Finals commercial and what it means for jobs; humanoid robots, the reality check behind the hype (globally: 17,000 to 18,000 units shipped in six months); AI in medicine and why Demis Hassabis may be the most trustworthy voice in the room; and the safety question – why the race condition is the most dangerous idea in tech today. They also answer the question the audience came for: which of the eight AI Apostles – Altman, Huang, Musk, Amodei, Gates, Hassabis, Zuckerberg, Harari – should you actually listen to? And which are talking their book? The episode closes with a challenge to reframe the whole conversation: not who wins the AI race, but what the human race wins from AI. And Alvin’s prediction for 2027: we will look back and realize we should have started working together earlier instead of racing and fighting.

  STOP SEARCHING. START DELEGATING.

  Aug 26, 202629 min

  Is AI moving us from the attention economy to the trust economy? And if so, what does that mean for Google, for Anthropic’s IPO, for children growing up with AI as their first confidant – and for the bubble debate that’s getting louder by the day? In this episode of the BIG BANG Tech Report, Jens de Buhr and Alvin Wang Graylin run through a packed agenda: the shift from “help me” to “do it for me”; whether Google must kill search before someone else does; the Buffett Indicator at 240 % of US GDP; what Anthropic’s rumoured IPO would actually reveal about the economics of frontier AI labs; why China has already won physical AI while digital AI may end up being a global public good; and how a laser weapon built by five people shows what startups can now do that was impossible before. The episode closes with Alvin’s most unexpected research project: heading to Burning Man to test whether its gifting economy could serve as a proto-economic model for a post-AGI world – and whether eighty thousand people in the Nevada desert can teach us something about what comes after productivity.

  AI Builds the Next Airbus: What’s Left for Humans?

  Aug 14, 202636 min

  In this episode of the BIG BANG Tech Report, Jens de Buhr and Alvin Wang Graylin discuss how close we may be to AGI, what happens when AI moves from chatbot to actor, and why the next stage of automation could reshape companies, jobs and human purpose. From aircraft design and AI agents to Hinton, Harari, Musk, robotics, ownership and Europe’s need for speed — this is a conversation about what changes when AI becomes capable of orchestrating entire workflows, not just individual tasks.

  Three AI visionaries shaping the future of chips, cinema, open source and work

  Jul 30, 202621 min

  Is singularity already here – or is Sam Altman just making headlines? In this episode of the BIG BANG Tech Report, Jens de Buhr and Alvin Wang Graylin examine five signals reshaping AI markets and society. They discuss the OpenAI model escape incident and what it reveals about operational maturity at frontier labs; China’s accelerating semiconductor progress and its impact on memory stocks; Nvidia’s open-source alliance and why almost every major AI company – except Anthropic – has signed on; AI-generated cinema and what Elon Musk’s full-length Odyssey ambition says about the democratization of visual storytelling; and Alvin’s takeaways from the World AI Conference in China, where East and West are converging on a shared message: AI should be a public good, not a weapon. The episode closes with a reflection on a broader shift already underway: people are no longer fighting AI – they are partnering with it. And that changes everything. – Chapter markers – About the hosts: Jens de Buhr – Founder & CEO, JDB Holding; publisher of DUP UNTERNEHMER; co-founder BIG BANG AI Festival.

  AI at a Turning Point: Why the Next Shift Will Create New Opportunities

  Jul 15, 202637 min

  Could the AI boom be heading toward a major correction — not because the technology is failing, but because its economics may not add up? In this episode of the BIG BANG Tech Report, Jens de Buhr and Alvin Wang Graylin discuss why humanoid robots are still stronger as demos than as businesses, how smaller models could move AI from the cloud onto personal devices, and why open models may challenge AI labs, chipmakers and hyperscale data centers. At the center is the question of whether falling AI costs, rising infrastructure spending and unclear enterprise returns could trigger a market reset. Alvin argues that such a correction could be painful — but also redirect AI toward broader access, global cooperation and more human-centered priorities. Further reading: Alvin Wang Graylin expands on this argument in his essay “The Great Reckoning Before the Reconnecting”, exploring why a potential AI crash could lead to five broader economic and societal “reconnectings.” About the hosts: Jens de Buhr – Founder & CEO, JDB Holding; publisher of DUP UNTERNEHMER; co-founder BIG BANG AI Festival.
