AI is reshaping our tech landscape, and we're here to dissect its profound influence. Google and NVIDIA are at the forefront, with Google's ventures like Waymo and Google Cloud setting the stage for future growth, despite antitrust challenges and fierce competition from platforms like TikTok and Instagram. As we discuss NVIDIA's leap into consumer-friendly AI, we also explore the compelling world of alternative investments, from Bitcoin's potential surge in 2025 to the emerging opportunities in private credit and early-stage venture capital. Diversification in high-risk investing and the potential of black swan events by 2025 are also up for discussion.

We'll also have our guest enter the "Spark Tank" and play a game of "Two Truths and a Lie," exploring some of the wildest, futuristic business ventures.
