Enterprise AI is booming so it’s no wonder that, as companies figure out how to implement it, the industry of AI infrastructure is emerging. This week, Equity is bringing you an episode of our sister show, Found. Becca and Dom talk to Nick Frosst from Cohere, the AI company building natural language models for enterprise customers. They discuss why Frosst thinks the AI boom isn’t built on a bubble, whether or not AI companies are building toward a “digital god”, and how AI regulation could be a good thing.

Equity is a show about the business of startups, where we unpack the numbers and nuance behind the headlines. New episodes drop at 7 a.m. PT every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.

Lev Zasetsky could have been an anonymous human data point in history’s largest conflict — just another one of tens of millions of casualties in World War II, the treatment of which stretched deep into the Cold War. But his particular brain injury was so peculiar that he drew the interest of Alexander Luria, the Soviet Union’s most accomplished neuropsychologist, as Lev became a complex mix of scientific oddity and miracle.

Zasetsky’s form of aphasia resulted in him being able to write, but not read his own writing or even understand all of what he had written. It’s a case that delves into the earliest history of Popular Science and reframes our modern understanding of psychology, history, language, communication, and the human spirit.
