Episode notes
NVIDIA Signals Openness To Quantum
- NVQ Link signals NVIDIA's move to interface GPUs with quantum processors, reflecting Jensen's long-term curiosity about quantum.
- Both hosts agree quantum remains distant but worthy of strategic exploration and DC attention around security.
Hyperscalers Are Capacity-Constrained
- Hyperscalers reported stronger-than-expected cloud growth and emphasized being capacity-constrained for AI compute.
- Ben stresses this is visible across the supply chain — bookings, construction, and energy — not just PR talk.
Demand Exists, But Origins Are Murky
- Jay is confused by mixed signals across the ecosystem; demand exists but customer concentration and utilization details vary.
- He questions where demand truly comes from and how concentrated it is among a few large customers.
