The Superintelligence Podcast

What makes an AI factory a good investment? NVIDIA's Shruti Koparkar joins Kim Isenberg to discuss GPU productivity, the role of software in extending the useful life of infrastructure, and the trade-offs operators face when deploying AI systems.

What does it take to bring AI from the road into a humanoid robot? In Paris, Kim Isenberg speaks with XPENG Vice President of Powertrain Jacky Gu about the engineering behind IRON and the lessons XPENG has carried over from autonomous driving. Disclosure: This interview was recorded during XPENG’s Physical AI Immersive Media Tour. XPENG provided travel support for this trip.

Dr. Heiko Klarl, CEO of Nexis, joins Kim Isenberg and Peter Thum on The Superintelligence Podcast to discuss AI agent security, identity and access management, and the practical limits of agent governance.

Christian Monberg, CTO and Head of Product at Zeta Global, joins Kim Isenberg and Peter Thum to explain what gets in the way: fragmented data, isolated tools, and workflows that nobody has redesigned around AI.

At Dreamforce, Mick Costigan, VP of Salesforce Futures, joined Kim Isenberg and Peter Thum for a conversation about AI agents, education and the future of work.

Ido Genosar, co-founder and CEO of Verobotics, joins Kim Isenberg and Peter Thum to talk about robots that clean and inspect building facades, the economics of working at height, and what it takes to turn a pilot into a service customers will pay for.

Kim Isenberg and Peter Thum sit down with Hume AI’s Andrew Ettinger and Olya Ossipova to explore voice AI, emotion, and the challenge of measuring how well a model listens.

We sat down with Dr. Wieland Holfelder, Vice President of Engineering at Google and Site Lead for Google’s Engineering Center in Munich, to discuss sovereign AI for Europe—and what security means when AI agents can take action inside organizations.

Kim Isenberg and Peter Thum sit down with Yaron Inger, Co-Founder and CTO of LTX, to examine the technology and business behind LTX-2.5, the company’s latest open-weights video and world model.

Kim Isenberg and Peter Thum sit down with Jonathan Cornelissen, Co-Founder and CEO of DataCamp, and Yusuf Saber, DataCamp’s Chief AI Officer and the founder of Optima. Together, they go inside the technology behind DataCamp’s AI-native tutor and examine how model decisions actually work on a learning platform serving more than 19 million people.

Together with Superintelligence co-founder Peter Thum, Kim sat down with PandaOS co-founders Philipp Türker and Marco Szeidenleder to examine what technological sovereignty actually means when European companies remain dependent on US models, cloud providers, chips, APIs, and infrastructure.

In this Superintelligence exclusive, Editor-in-Chief Kim Isenberg sits down with Dr. Xianming Liu, Head of XPENG’s General Intelligence Center, for an in-depth conversation about VLA 2.0, autonomous driving, world models, robotaxis and the company’s broader vision for Physical AI.

AI companies increasingly crawl and use content from the open web, while creators and publishers often receive neither meaningful traffic nor compensation in return.

AI agents can write code, send emails, and act across enterprise systems. But the moment they move from demo to production, a harder question appears: What are they allowed to do — and who can prove they followed the rules?

In this episode, Kim Isenberg speaks with Sven Breuner from VAST Data about the infrastructure behind modern AI systems — from GPU utilization and storage architecture to HPC, inference, data movement, and the emerging concept of AI factories.

In this episode, we sit down with Sam Stanwyck, who leads NVIDIA’s quantum computing product team, to discuss where quantum computing really stands today — beyond the hype.

We talked about how Notion started with the mission to democratize software creation through modular building blocks, why templates became the real unlock, and why the next phase is not just humans collaborating with humans, but humans, custom code, and AI agents working side by side.

Robby Stein is VP of Product at Google Search, where he leads AI Overviews, AI Mode, search ranking, and Google Lens. Before Google, he built Stories, Reels, and Close Friends at Instagram – products now used by billions. He also co-founded Stamped (acquired by Yahoo) and led product at Artifact.

We discuss why Google is investing so heavily in open models, what Gemma changes for developers, why Apache 2.0 licensing matters, and how tools like Google AI Studio could make AI development accessible to far more people than traditional machine learning ever did.

In this episode of the Superintelligence Interview, Kim Isenberg speaks with Roeland Delrue, co-founder of Aikido Security, about how AI-generated code is reshaping software security.

In this conversation, they break down why meetings still require endless back-and-forth — and how AI agents are starting to take over the entire coordination layer between people.

In this conversation, they break down how AI is transforming product design and development — from rapid prototyping to real-time user feedback — and why traditional workflows are becoming obsolete.

In this interview, Kari explains the hybrid Mamba-Transformer architecture, why NVIDIA trained in FP4 precision from day one, how speculative decoding delivers up to 3-5x speed gains, and why NVIDIA — unlike other labs — releases full training recipes, datasets, and environments to the open-source community. Plus: the newly announced Nemotron Coalition with Mistral AI, the Ultra base model reveal, and why NVIDIA's business model makes radical openness possible.

In this exclusive interview, we sit down with Zeev Farbman, the co-founder and CEO of LTX and the creative AI company Lightricks, to explore the story behind one of the most influential startups in the generative media space.

Superintelligence Editor-in-Chief Kim sits down with Lightfield CEO Keith Peiris to discuss the future of AI-native CRM systems. In this conversation, they explore how artificial intelligence is reshaping customer relationship management, which longstanding problems in traditional CRMs AI can finally solve, and the unexpected challenges the Lightfield team faced while building their startup from the ground up.

In this conversation, we unpack the motivation behind Cosmos, the science and research powering its open models, and the long-term vision shaping its evolution. Learn how Cosmos is redefining physical AI, where these models are headed next, and how developers and researchers can start using Cosmos today.
