Is the AI hype cycle about to burst?

For months, investors and founders have chased sky-high valuations, billion-dollar hires, and promises of superintelligence, but Meta's drastic plans to cut back its AI division seem to indicate a bleak future for LLMs and AI at large.

In this episode, Chris and Yaniv unpack the latest shakeup at Meta, using their knowledge and experience in Silicon Valley to analyze the situation and pick apart whether this is a canary in a coal mine. They explore why Meta is restructuring, what it says about the state of large language models (LLMs), and how to navigate high-stakes moments when the hype cycle turns.

In this episode, you will:

  • Understand what Meta’s latest AI restructure really signals about industry priorities
  • Learn why hype cycles always lead to a trough of disillusionment, and how to prepare
  • Explore how trillion-dollar bets on AGI could reshape competitive dynamics
  • See why founders should question assumptions about LLM productivity gains
  • Recognize the risks of chasing hype versus building sustainable business models
