Freedom 250 Recap with Bo Nickal, The Hand Anthropic Was Dealt, Fox Buys Roku | Bo Nickal, Gavin Baker, Leif Abraham, Aaron Ginn, Rafael Vivas

Uh, what, what is the distribution of that?

TBPN
Freedom 250 Recap with Bo Nickal, The Hand Anthropic Was Dealt, Fox Buys Roku | Bo Nickal, Gavin Baker, Leif Abraham, Aaron Ginn, Rafael Vivas

I mean, are you going to be buying a lot of GPUs?

TBPN
Freedom 250 Recap with Bo Nickal, The Hand Anthropic Was Dealt, Fox Buys Roku | Bo Nickal, Gavin Baker, Leif Abraham, Aaron Ginn, Rafael Vivas

You're working with Nvidia.

Is this like one data center, multiple data centers?

Are you part, are you building like what restate the thesis of like where you fit in the bottleneck?

TBPN
Freedom 250 Recap with Bo Nickal, The Hand Anthropic Was Dealt, Fox Buys Roku | Bo Nickal, Gavin Baker, Leif Abraham, Aaron Ginn, Rafael Vivas

How much of your thesis is like, you want to stay NVIDIA only, you want to compound the learnings around the NVIDIA ecosystem, there's value, like we talked to another, a Neo Cloud last week that's AMD super focused, but then you talk to other folks and they're like, we want to be completely agnostic, we want to be one big blob of fluid compute.

Freedom 250 Recap with Bo Nickal, The Hand Anthropic Was Dealt, Fox Buys Roku | Bo Nickal, Gavin Baker, Leif Abraham, Aaron Ginn, Rafael Vivas

There's multiple thesis that are playing out and people are sort of testing every idea.

TBPN
Freedom 250 Recap with Bo Nickal, The Hand Anthropic Was Dealt, Fox Buys Roku | Bo Nickal, Gavin Baker, Leif Abraham, Aaron Ginn, Rafael Vivas

but how do you see it, like what is your strategy?

TBPN
Freedom 250 Recap with Bo Nickal, The Hand Anthropic Was Dealt, Fox Buys Roku | Bo Nickal, Gavin Baker, Leif Abraham, Aaron Ginn, Rafael Vivas

React to what Gavin Baker just told us in the show earlier.

Freedom 250 Recap with Bo Nickal, The Hand Anthropic Was Dealt, Fox Buys Roku | Bo Nickal, Gavin Baker, Leif Abraham, Aaron Ginn, Rafael Vivas

I asked him about, it looks like the trend lines are widening between the United States closed source model capabilities and Chinese open source model capabilities.

There's a bunch of charts that show one line is growing linearly, the other is growing exponentially over time.

TBPN
Freedom 250 Recap with Bo Nickal, The Hand Anthropic Was Dealt, Fox Buys Roku | Bo Nickal, Gavin Baker, Leif Abraham, Aaron Ginn, Rafael Vivas

could be really good for America, it could mean a lot of different things, they could catch up, who knows.

But he was saying that the big reason for that is that Blackwell's a great chip, they've had the ability to buy it, and they've turned their back on NVIDIA, even though Jensen and NVIDIA went to Washington and figured out the correct framework to allow for exports.

TBPN
Freedom 250 Recap with Bo Nickal, The Hand Anthropic Was Dealt, Fox Buys Roku | Bo Nickal, Gavin Baker, Leif Abraham, Aaron Ginn, Rafael Vivas

Those exports have not been received on the other side because of the push to build an indigenous supply chain.

TBPN
Freedom 250 Recap with Bo Nickal, The Hand Anthropic Was Dealt, Fox Buys Roku | Bo Nickal, Gavin Baker, Leif Abraham, Aaron Ginn, Rafael Vivas

How strong is that narrative for you?

TBPN
Freedom 250 Recap with Bo Nickal, The Hand Anthropic Was Dealt, Fox Buys Roku | Bo Nickal, Gavin Baker, Leif Abraham, Aaron Ginn, Rafael Vivas

What would you add to that?

TBPN
Freedom 250 Recap with Bo Nickal, The Hand Anthropic Was Dealt, Fox Buys Roku | Bo Nickal, Gavin Baker, Leif Abraham, Aaron Ginn, Rafael Vivas

Yeah.

TBPN
Freedom 250 Recap with Bo Nickal, The Hand Anthropic Was Dealt, Fox Buys Roku | Bo Nickal, Gavin Baker, Leif Abraham, Aaron Ginn, Rafael Vivas

Is distillation a bigger problem than chip exports?

TBPN
Freedom 250 Recap with Bo Nickal, The Hand Anthropic Was Dealt, Fox Buys Roku | Bo Nickal, Gavin Baker, Leif Abraham, Aaron Ginn, Rafael Vivas

Forever, too.

I mean, you have a small piece of land that they're fracking on.
