  AI Builds the Next Airbus: What’s Left for Humans?

  Aug 14, 202636 min

  In this episode of the BIG BANG Tech Report, Jens de Buhr and Alvin Wang Graylin discuss how close we may be to AGI, what happens when AI moves from chatbot to actor, and why the next stage of automation could reshape companies, jobs and human purpose. From aircraft design and AI agents to Hinton, Harari, Musk, robotics, ownership and Europe’s need for speed — this is a conversation about what changes when AI becomes capable of orchestrating entire workflows, not just individual tasks.

  Three AI visionaries shaping the future of chips, cinema, open source and work

  Jul 30, 202621 min

  Is singularity already here – or is Sam Altman just making headlines? In this episode of the BIG BANG Tech Report, Jens de Buhr and Alvin Wang Graylin examine five signals reshaping AI markets and society. They discuss the OpenAI model escape incident and what it reveals about operational maturity at frontier labs; China’s accelerating semiconductor progress and its impact on memory stocks; Nvidia’s open-source alliance and why almost every major AI company – except Anthropic – has signed on; AI-generated cinema and what Elon Musk’s full-length Odyssey ambition says about the democratization of visual storytelling; and Alvin’s takeaways from the World AI Conference in China, where East and West are converging on a shared message: AI should be a public good, not a weapon. The episode closes with a reflection on a broader shift already underway: people are no longer fighting AI – they are partnering with it. And that changes everything. – Chapter markers – About the hosts: Jens de Buhr – Founder & CEO, JDB Holding; publisher of DUP UNTERNEHMER; co-founder BIG BANG AI Festival.

  AI at a Turning Point: Why the Next Shift Will Create New Opportunities

  Jul 15, 202637 min

  Could the AI boom be heading toward a major correction — not because the technology is failing, but because its economics may not add up? In this episode of the BIG BANG Tech Report, Jens de Buhr and Alvin Wang Graylin discuss why humanoid robots are still stronger as demos than as businesses, how smaller models could move AI from the cloud onto personal devices, and why open models may challenge AI labs, chipmakers and hyperscale data centers. At the center is the question of whether falling AI costs, rising infrastructure spending and unclear enterprise returns could trigger a market reset. Alvin argues that such a correction could be painful — but also redirect AI toward broader access, global cooperation and more human-centered priorities. Further reading: Alvin Wang Graylin expands on this argument in his essay “The Great Reckoning Before the Reconnecting”, exploring why a potential AI crash could lead to five broader economic and societal “reconnectings.” About the hosts: Jens de Buhr – Founder & CEO, JDB Holding; publisher of DUP UNTERNEHMER; co-founder BIG BANG AI Festival.

  The Ego Era Is Over. AI Needs a Human Compass

  Jul 1, 202631 min

  In this episode of the BIG BANG Tech Report, Jens de Buhr and Alvin Wang Graylin ask who controls the next wave of AI. They discuss Apple’s edge AI advantage, the rise of open models from China and Japan, the growing link between AI access and geopolitics, and why Europe’s sovereignty ambitions depend on scale, cost and real-world performance. The episode also covers AI video, chips, Nvidia’s position, Huawei’s role — and the bigger question behind automation: what happens to work, meaning and human value when AI becomes infrastructure?
