Is the safest bet in AI the hardware underneath it?

Show notes: https://motherduck.com/explain-analyze


Mehdi Ouazza and Jacob Matson unpack Meta's reported $10B compute lease talks with Anthropic, why AI labs are becoming infrastructure customers, and what it means for data and AI builders. Then they get into graph-shaped context for agents, removing AI slop from writing, reproducible development environments, AMD's Anthropic bet, Domo's acquisition and the future of standalone BI, lakehouse vs. warehouse, leadership bottlenecks, tldraw's isRecord saga, and loop engineering.

EXPLAIN ANALYZE is the MotherDuck podcast where the hosts bring data and AI stories the others have not seen, then work through them together.
