This week’s Friday Wrap-Up looks back at Nicolai Tangen’s podcast conversation with

Eric Schmidt, former CEO of Google and one of the most influential voices on AI.

Marthe Skaar and Nicolai discuss how investors should think about a business model

where a new AI model takes about six months to build and may be out of date within

months.

They also cover why Nicolai believes over-regulating AI could hold Europe back, and

why companies need to change their culture much faster than before.

They also look at the gender gap in AI use at the fund, and Nicolai also shares how he

prepares for his podcast conversations. Finally, he gives a preview of his upcoming

guests in New York. Tune in and find out!
