AI is running Tinder accounts, EquipmentShare just IPO’d, and construction is asking the wrong questions.
In this week’s Bricks, Bucks & Bytes episode:
🤖 AI agents are getting weird, from running 24/7 on Mac Minis to accidentally ordering physical robots.
📈 EquipmentShare breaks the IPO drought with a ~$6B debut and exposes how hard asset-heavy tech really scales.
🧠 The real AI debate emerges: Are we building tools… or outsourcing our brains?
But that’s not all:
-
Clawdbot → Moltbot hype hits peak saturation, and we unpack what agentic AI is actually good for.
-
Patric dismantles “AI will manage your life” culture (and doesn’t hold back).
-
Martin explains why agents will win in industry-specific workflows, not generic life admin.
-
We debate whether systems of record still matter or if vibe-coding kills them from the edges.
🎧 Listen now for:
-
Why EquipmentShare’s financial engineering matters more than the headline valuation
-
The difference between AI that helps you think vs AI that replaces thinking
-
Where robotics is quietly winning (and where it’s still stuck)
-
Why most “time-saving AI” just creates more time to scroll
