petergyang · x · 2026-10-18
Peter Yang's new podcast episode with Anthony Pompliano — investor, creator with 3M+ followers, and founder of Silvia, an AI CFO for independent investors — covers his career, how AI startups can build durable moats against top AI labs, and how he hires AI-native talent. Notable quotes: "Do you know what it's like to wake up one day and have a trillion dollar company compete with you?" and his take that hiring big-company resume stars "was like a car wreck," plus why AI lets people ask financial questions without fear of judgment.
