0:00 58:15

Chamath Palihapitiya, host of the All-In Podcast and CEO of both Social Capital and 8090, sits down with Joe Kernen and Andrew Ross Sorkin for a wide-ranging interview. The founder and investor views AI as a “great leveler,” and he argues that Silicon Valley has an AI marketing problem. A California billionaire himself, Palihapitiya discusses his commitment to the state–and his frustration with the state’s politicians. Once a donor to the Democratic Party, he addresses his shift in politics and his current relationship with President Trump. Plus, where he went wrong on SPACs, and unpacking a warning from IBM that sent the stock plummeting 23%.
