    People stopped watching your videos the moment they figure out your political views through the speakers you ban vs the speakers you kept.

    Vision – I have a vision I believe is the future of TED . To evolve from Ideas worth spreading to actions worth living. TED can expand to become an entire Ecosystem. For resources… You might want to reach out a company by the same name

    “He turned TED from a conference into a global movement. He didn’t just guide TED; he transformed it. He championed the radical idea that knowledge should be free, that talks could leap off this stage and into hearts worldwide. He believed curiosity isn’t a luxury; it’s a human right. Today, Chris steps onto this stage to share news of an exciting new chapter for TED. So, with gratitude for the past and anticipation for what comes next, please join me in welcoming TED’s guiding light, Chris Anderson.”

LLMs may have kicked off this AI boom, but the ceiling is closer than the hype suggests. As models run out of text data to train on, the companies and investors paying attention are already moving on. The next wave isn’t better chatbots; it’s machines that can understand the physical world. Luma AI, the Bay Area lab that raised over $1.4 billion from a16z, Nvidia, and Amazon, is betting on exactly that.

On episode of TechCrunch’s Equity podcast, we’re bringing you a conversation Rebecca Bellan sat down with Amit Jain, co-founder and CEO of Luma AI, at Web Summit Qatar. Together, the pair dug into where the next trillion-dollar AI opportunity actually gets built, and whether the companies chasing it even know what they’re building yet.
