Description

This is an AI-generated exploration about whatever subjects pique my interest at any given time. Episodes usually straddle tech, media, finance, business, entrepreneurship, history, philosophy, and psychology – for which I feed the machine research and analysis from various sources to produce this synthesis.

If business and writing are the outlets of my intellectual curiosity, then consumption and reading are the inputs. As my audio professor and scrapbook, this show falls somewhere in between those ends, so I might as well share it with you!

What's the latest with artificial intelligence and models' accuracy? Three objectives: Compare and contrast traditional autoregressive LLMs (Gemini/chatGPT/Claude/LLaMA) vs nonautoregressive AI (NotebookLM) vs chain of thought reasoning models (Strawberry o1) – including the benefits, detriments, and tradeoffs of each Error rates for NotebookLM vs traditional LLMs vs CoT reasoning models – focusing on accuracy benefits from a smaller corpus of curated source materials that users feed NotebookLM when promoting (vs an LLM trained on and inferencing from the entire web) Which model (or combination of models) will be the future standard?

How has nonbank credit affected traditional bank lending? I'm particularly interested in three effects of nonbank lending (e.g. shadow banking and private credit): loans and leases in bank credit(do nonbanks crowd-out or displace banks?) bank loan performance (do nonbanks exhibit adverse selection and how do they affect broader delinquencies, chargeoffs, and defaults?) financial conditions (do nonbanks contribute to procyclical or countercyclical loosening/tightening?)
