A rain-soaked bicycle shop helped send David Friedberg into weather insurance. After Climate, Google and a seat at the All-In table, his next wager is growing in the ground.
At the Machina conference in Paris, All-In host Jason Calacanis sits down with the leaders of four of the world's top robotics companies—ANYbotics, 1X, Boston Dynamics, and Agility Robotics. Across four rapid-fire interviews, the CEOs explain why four-legged 'dog' robots conquered industrial inspection first, why humanoids are finally doing useful work, how teleoperation and internet-scale video data are training the next generation of machines, and where the real money and the real dangers lie—from explosive oil rigs to weaponized robots coming out of China. The through-line: robots are no longer research demos, they're deployed assets measured by ROI, and 'hard takeoff' where robots build robots may be as little as three years away.
Recorded live at the RAISE Summit inside the Louvre, this two-part All-In Podcast conversation, hosted by Jason Calacanis, features ElevenLabs co-founder and CEO Mati Staniszewski and Legora founder and CEO Max Junestrand. Staniszewski details how ElevenLabs raced from a research project to roughly $600 million in annual revenue in under three years, why the company runs on small engineer-embedded teams with zero product managers, how it protects voices from impersonation while paying creators over $22 million, and how it out-competes frontier labs like OpenAI and Anthropic on voice. Junestrand explains how Legora is compressing the trillion-dollar legal-services market with AI agents, growing 50% quarter-over-quarter for seven straight quarters, deploying 'forward-deployed lawyers,' and disrupting legacy players like LexisNexis and Westlaw.
In episode 280 of the All-In Podcast, hosts Jason Calacanis, Chamath Palihapitiya and David Sacks are joined by 'bestie' Brad Gerstner (David Friedberg is on vacation) to unpack a trillion-dollar rush to the IPO exits led by SpaceX and expected to be followed by Anthropic and OpenAI. The group debates the sustainability of exploding AI token spend, the tug-of-war between frontier labs and cheap open-source models, sovereign AI ambitions, and whether enterprises can actually prove ROI. The emotional centerpiece is the launch of 'Trump Accounts' (the Invest America Act), a $1,000-at-birth investment account for every American child that Gerstner championed for four years, now live as the number-one app in the App Store, with billionaire philanthropists like Michael Dell and Gwynne Shotwell seeding accounts for lower-income kids.
