For the first time ever, the BIG BANG Tech Report went live – on stage, in front of 11,000 people at the BIG BANG KI FESTIVAL in Berlin. No screens between them, no time zones separating them. Just Jens de Buhr and Alvin Wang Graylin, a clicker, and one of the biggest conversations in tech.

In this special live episode, they work through six AI megatrends shaping 2027: the AI investment bubble and what entrepreneurs should do before the winter comes; AI as colleague, manager and eventual CEO – and who carries the liability; the creative industry’s $2,000 NBA Finals...

What happens when one of the world’s leading AI strategists spends a week in the Nevada desert with no money, no hierarchy – and a lot of conversations about artificial intelligence?

In this episode of the BIG BANG Tech Report, Jens de Buhr and Alvin Wang Graylin reflect on Alvin’s research trip to Burning Man – and what eighty thousand people in the desert can teach us about the future of work, creativity, community and the role of AI in human life.

They discuss why artists at Burning Man are not fighting AI but asking how to use it to...

Is AI moving us from the attention economy to the trust economy? And if so, what does that mean for Google, for Anthropic’s IPO, for children growing up with AI as their first confidant – and for the bubble debate that’s getting louder by the day?

In this episode of the BIG BANG Tech Report, Jens de Buhr and Alvin Wang Graylin run through a packed agenda: the shift from “help me” to “do it for me”; whether Google must kill search before someone else does; the Buffett Indicator at 240 % of US GDP; what Anthropic’s rumoured IPO would...

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.

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...

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...

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?

Are AI labs building sustainable businesses or exposing a deeper economic tension? In this episode of the BIG BANG Tech Report, Jens de Buhr and Alvin Wang Graylin discuss the economics behind AGI claims, the pressure around AI business models, and the question of who benefits if AI becomes core infrastructure. They examine cheaper AI use, global competition from open-source models, robotics in China, and why governance should focus on human value rather than machine ownership.

Are we leaving behind an era defined by larger models, data centers, and valuations? In this episode of the BIG BANG Tech Report, Jens de Buhr and Alvin Wang Graylin discuss the latest developments shaping the AI industry and enterprise technology landscape. They explore OpenAI’s current challenges, the long-term AI infrastructure potential around SpaceX, and why scalable infrastructure and orchestration may become more important than individual large models.

Are we leaving the chatbot phase behind and entering the age of industrial AI? In this episode of the BIG BANG Tech Report, Jens de Buhr and Alvin Wang Graylin discuss how AI is transitioning from interfaces to production lines, healthcare, defense, capital markets and labor law. The stakes are now about who controls computing power, captures productivity gains and how societies adapt. They discuss topics such as Anthropic's momentum, Elon Musk's compute deal, Pentagon contracts, Google's focus on healthcare AI for clinicians, China's regulation-first approach to AI and new court rulings against AI-driven layoffs. Regarding Europe and Germany, Graylin...
