In this episode of Tech // Wealth Fireside, hosts Jay Steinback (YPO St. Louis) and Allan Matheson (YPO British Columbia) unpack some of the technologies reshaping markets, business and society — from Bitcoin, blockchain and evolving crypto regulation to AI, data ownership and the growing case for companies to bring AI infrastructure in-house.
The conversation also explores the rise of generative AI in entertainment and the next frontier of physical AI, including humanoid robotics, real-world applications and the race to turn increasingly capable machines into scalable products.
It’s a candid, fast-moving discussion about what’s changing now, what may be coming next, and where investors and business leaders should be paying attention.
