In an era where AI giants like Palantir, Google, Microsoft, and NVIDIA battle for supremacy, a new frontier is emerging: the race to predict Earth's future. Josh Gilbert and Gopal Erinjippurath, co-founders of Sust Global, reveal how geospatial AI is becoming the next critical battleground in the global tech war. Drawing parallels to the nuclear arms race, they explore how major tech players, defense contractors, and financial institutions are competing to harness vast satellite and environmental datasets to predict everything from hurricane paths to economic shockwaves. This episode pulls back the curtain on how AI is revolutionizing climate risk prediction and reshaping global power dynamics. Josh and Gopal share insider insights on which tech giants might win or lose in this trillion-dollar race, and how geospatial AI is giving decision-makers unprecedented ability to anticipate and respond to environmental and economic threats. Learn how this technological arms race is transforming not just how we understand our planet, but how nations and corporations will compete in an AI-driven future.

Tech entrepreneur Eliot Puplett shares his vision for democratizing global finance through blockchain technology. As founder of Medici, he's building a decentralized financial system that could do for money what the internet did for information. Puplett discusses the challenges of disrupting entrenched financial institutions, navigating regulatory hurdles, and building new infrastructure from scratch. He explains how blockchain can dramatically reduce costs and complexity in international investments by eliminating middlemen and creating transparent, immutable transactions. Beyond the technology, Puplett reveals his deeper mission: enabling thousands of people who've been excluded from traditional finance to build wealth, start companies, and access capital markets. It's a raw, candid conversation about fighting the status quo while trying to become part of it – and the messy reality of building a financial revolution from the ground up.
