SORA
In Episode 35 of the LLB podcast, the Barbies delve into OpenAI's latest release, Sora, discussing its impact on startups in the AI space and the potential for Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). They cover intriguing aspects of content generation, exploring what will and won't be defensible in this evolving landscape.
Temu Superbowl Ads
The conversation then shifts to Temu and its Super Bowl ads. The Barbies dissect Temu's business strategy, model, and how it stacks up against giants like Amazon and its "zombie counterpart" Wish.com, which is in the process of being acquired by Qoo10. They debate whether Temu is the online equivalent of a dollar store, Walmart, or Costco, offering insights into its place in the market.
Indonesian Elections
Lastly, the podcast touches on the Indonesian elections, particularly after Jianggan's drops off. Joon provides a setup for future discussions on the election results, focusing on the election of former military general, Probowo, as Indonesia's president. They examine the significant implications this has for Indonesia's foreign policy, military decisions, and much more.
