Founders and researchers from Harvey, OpenAI, Glean, Abridge, and others describe discovering hidden opportunities as models quietly became good enough to transform “bad” markets like legal advice and enterprise search. Guests explore frontier capabilities such as spatial and visual reasoning, tool-using models, and AI-assisted research, alongside the labor displacement and geopolitical risks of approaching superintelligence. The episode closes on the deeply human side of AI, with healthcare AI enabling doctors to reclaim time, purpose, and connection with their families.
