About this Episode
They dig into why a footwear brand thinks it can jump into GPU-heavy AI infrastructure, how converting retail/warehouse space into data centers might be the real play, and why this smells like the AI hype bubble all over again—just like the dot-com era and the 2008 crash. They also talk about venture capital pressure, falling revenue, and why so many companies suddenly slap “AI” on everything.
If you care about AI, tech bubbles, VC funding, or corporate pivots that make zero sense, this segment is for you.
