In short

AI’s growing real-world impact and risks, plus market implications. Meta launches a major AI model; Visa becomes a blockchain validator for a payments network tied to “agentic” machine-to-machine payments; Stanford’s AI survey shows public anxiety; Big Pharma partnerships use AI to speed drug development; AI sports-betting tests fail; Allbirds pivots from shoes to AI compute; Chris demonstrates an AI-built TradingView indicator using “real yields” (forward-looking and realized).

Guests

Kris Bullock (aka BlastoPlast), host/guest and AI/trading practitioner. No other named guest appears in the transcript.

Key claims

Meta’s model is competitive with Claude/Gemini/Perplexity, positioned for reasoning/science/health and initially free (Facebook/Instagram ad revenue), with a possible ~$10 paid tier later. Visa validating a payments blockchain signals traditional finance betting on blockchain/agentic payments. Public messaging about AI is overly doom-and-gloom, driving fear (only 10% of Americans more excited than scared). Pharma AI partnerships won’t “hallucinate” new drugs like ChatGPT; they use bespoke models trained on internal data. In sports betting, tested AI models lost money and underperformed a Kelly benchmark. Allbirds’ AI compute pivot is a “bigger pie” but a tougher competitive market.

Notable examples

Meta’s $14B spend; Visa validator on the “Tempo” payments blockchain; Eli Lilly + OpenAI; Novo Nordisk + OpenAI; Novartis joining Anthropic’s board; AI sports-betting on a Premier League season; Allbirds selling its shoe business for $39M and buying AI compute hardware; Chris’s TradingView Pine indicator for real yields (2008+ history; toggle for realized yields).

0:05Kris Bullock:Happy Wednesday, everyone, and welcome back to another edition of Trading the Markets with AI. Of course, I'm joined by Kris Bullock, aka BlastoPlast. This is the show where we talk about all the latest happenings in AI. Take a look at some charts, and we normally have a guest that joins us to talk about how they're using AI. And of course, it's a theme every week. It seems like every week something brand new is happening in AI where the market's just starting all over again anew and everyone's really excited. We've got some great, interesting stories for you today. Meta just launched their first serious AI model after spending$14 billion.

0:51Kris Bullock:We'll talk about that. Chris has been using it as well, and he has some feedback for you. Visa just became a blockchain validator. And hint, if you've been watching our PJM, Rob Powell, Journeyman, yes, it has to do with the Gentic payments. Stanford dropped their annual AI report headline. AI experts are optimistic. The normies are a little anxious. We'll dive into that as well. and we're gonna actually also talk about how AI can actually trade. Are they better than sports betting or should you just rely on yourself if you're taking bets against the house? And lastly, from shoes to GPUs, Allbirds is now an AI company.

1:42Kris Bullock:We're gonna talk all about it. And of course, in the second half of the show, Chris created a technical indicator with AI. We're going to look at that. And we're also going to dive into some AI stocks and see how they're looking. Chris, happy Wednesday.

1:58Bijan Maleki:Happy Wednesday. Happy to be here. I'm looking forward to this.

2:02Kris Bullock:Happy to have you. I mean, listen, it's been a crazy week already. Like, obviously, the mythos stuff has just been continuing to spill over. We discussed that last week, and I'm sure you guys have just seen that everywhere. But we're going to talk a little bit different, you know, have a whole bunch of headlines. And first up is meta, right?

2:22Bijan Maleki:First up is meta. Yeah. So I just learned about this. I mean, I kind of saw rumblings of it, but this is the first time I really kind of dug into it. And so I fired it up this morning and did quite a bit of hammering on it. And I got to say, it's pretty good. Like I was pleasantly surprised. You know, I actually used it to prepare for a lot of the show this morning and it was very helpful. I did a lot of side-by-side competitive sort of queries with, you know, Claude and Gemini and perplexity. And I feel like the responses were competitive. I feel like, you know, that it was presented well. It was well-reasoned.

2:56Bijan Maleki:It was different but similar, you know, as they all are when you kind of do side-by-sides like that. It's interesting to see just how they use some of the subtle wording and things like that. But, yeah, all the information was there. I don't feel like it left anything out. I don't feel like it hallucinated heavily or anything like that. Like I said, I felt like with the queries I ran, it was right in line with that. I think interesting, though, is they're positioning the product to be lighter and faster and more focused on things like reasoning and science and math and health as opposed to like coding and things like that.

3:28Bijan Maleki:So it's, you know, ideally suited for general research, general sort of everyday use. I haven't really hit it with anything too heavy yet, like doing deep dives on like financial reports and and having analyzed financial sectors and, you know, helping me pick different stocks and things like that. So I'm going to get into that next. But from what I saw, I liked it. Uh, also interesting too, they don't have a paid tier unlike every, everybody else. So they're, they're basically using the revenues from, you know, Facebook and Instagram advertising to support the product, which is novel, uh, though they are testing a paid tier and it may come out later this year.

4:05Bijan Maleki:It's supposed to be right around the$10 mark. And it will of course give you more, more tokens, more context, you know, more memory, things like that. But, um, in the meantime, you know, I think it's an easy competitive product for people that just want, you know, lighter AI usage, that maybe they're paying$20 a month for, you know, ChatGPT right now, I think you should try this and see how it compares and see if it's something that you can use. And I think if they can manage to get this product in front of people, that it'll be competitive in the space. So that's going to be, you know, the big challenge for them.

4:36Bijan Maleki:But yeah, so far, so good, honestly.

4:40Kris Bullock:I mean, they're definitely gonna get this product in front of people, right? I mean, you know, you don't spend$14 billion, hire an epic team, to not get this out. And I think a lot of people are going to use it, right? Facebook, I mean, their user base is insane. And I think you can use it like with your account right now. Is that what you're saying? You can, yeah.

4:59Bijan Maleki:Yeah, I just logged in with, you log in with your existing Facebook account basically or your Instagram account if you have that instead, either one. And it just connects up and uses that sort of backend. But yeah, yeah. And you can use it, you know, of course they have a standalone app for both computers and phones that you can use too. So, yeah.

5:19Kris Bullock:Yeah, it's going to be interesting. I mean, I will use it just for that alone, just for the free trial, essentially, right? Everyone has a Facebook or Instagram account. So it doesn't hurt to use it and see what's going on. It's going to be tough to get me off of Claude right now, but we'll see.

5:37Bijan Maleki:Yeah, I mean, I'm still going to definitely use Claude. I personally prefer Claude over all of the rest of them, and especially for its coding ability and things like that too. So I kind of use all of them now. And I feel like from one week to the next, I'll favor one over another. But Claude has been kind of my go-to for most things. But I do like to have one that I can just kind of hammer with little queries, almost use it like Google sort of in a way, you know, just like, hey, what's going on here or whatever. And I like having a lighter, faster one. And so maybe I'll throw the meta one into the mix and give that a go for a week and see how I like it.

6:17Kris Bullock:Yeah, absolutely. We'll definitely check this out. I mean, meta, what, they have like 3 billion users across all of their apps. So just that alone is just super powerful in bringing AI to the masses. For sure. You talked about something, though, that meta was using, right? Like they're focusing kind of on scientific reasoning. Did you say medical as well in there?

6:39Bijan Maleki:It did say, yes, medical. So, I mean, I don't know how keen people are to throw all their medical records onto an LLM and hammer it that way. But maybe, I don't know, I'll start asking it some medical questions. Who knows? We'll see what it does. But given that that is something that they've noted that they want to specialize in, I suppose it's worth seeing how well it is. So, sure, why not? Yeah, absolutely. obviously don't, it's not going to replace your doctor. It's not going to give medical advice, but I think it, like one thing it helps, you know, I've used LLMs for interpreting test results, like lab results and things like that.

7:18Bijan Maleki:And, and just kind of helping with symptom assessment and, you know, just general surface type things, you know, and sure, why not?

7:28Kris Bullock:Yeah, we, we, we, we discussed the other week about, you know, how it's not doing so great with medical studies, but hey, if it's just summarizing the information there, I guess we'll have to see. So what about Argentic payments and Visa? They've been entering, they entered the blockchain in a major way with Stripe here.

7:52Bijan Maleki:Right, right. Yeah, no, I mean, I didn't actually know about this Tempo blockchain. It's still like in test, but yeah, Stripe and this paradigm company are building Tempo. It's a new blockchain basically, focused on payments. And Visa just came in and spun up a validator on this network and are testing it. And, you know, I think it's definitely a huge signal for major traditional finance companies coming in and using crypto infrastructure. And yeah, it's just, I think we're seeing a further progression of that, but it's great to see. I think we need to see that. I think it's been moving slowly in that direction over the years, but I'm not surprised to see these sort of bespoke blockchains being built as opposed to, you know, people using this on not to bag on Ethereum or whatever, but just like legacy blockchains, I'll say, you know, I'm not surprised to see these bespoke blockchains coming online that are very much specifically tailored for things like payment rails and agentic payments and things like that.

8:52Bijan Maleki:So, yeah, I think it's great. It's only a good thing, basically. And it's only going to make the world better as far as transacting goes.

9:00Kris Bullock:Yeah, absolutely. It's like you said, it's different from just accepting crypto payments. So they're literally now running blockchain infrastructure. So they are signaling to all of us that they're betting on the blockchain. They're betting on the agentic economy because, first of all, they're like, if not the largest, definitely one of the largest payment networks in the world, right? And then they're focusing on machine-to-machine payments for the AI agents, right? not human payments, which is very interesting when literally one of the biggest payment providers in the world starts adopting and focusing on this technology.

9:39Bijan Maleki:Yeah, absolutely. It's going to be interesting to see, just like how we talked about, I think, a week or two ago, how, you know, 30 percent of the transactions on base are agentic payments, basically. I'm curious to see how this unfolds on this, too. I think that's only going to increase, of course, for sure. But yeah, and it's just another story in a long line of stories of the traditional finance system, the global finance system migrating its way on chain, you know, and I think that that's only going to continue and we're still only getting started. It's been, it's funny though, because, you know, we talk about all these alt coins and all these alt projects that come along that are trying to do this and that.

10:16Bijan Maleki:And somehow that has taken a backseat to traditional finance building out, again, bespoke blockchains and doing their own thing. They're like, yeah, okay, we like blockchain. We're not so much into this crypto world, but we like blockchain technology and we're going to use blockchain technology and we're going to just do what we think we need to do with it on our own, as opposed to buying onto some alt project that somebody built two or three years ago. So yeah, not surprised, but also interesting. I think Canton Network is another perfect example of that. We're like, oh, is JP Morgan and all these companies going to build out on Ethereum?

10:57Bijan Maleki:BlackRock, they're going to use Ethereum because it's the oldest and it's the best and it's the most secure and it's the most decentralized. Nope, they're just going to build their own blockchain, of course. What were we thinking?

11:07Kris Bullock:We were thinking the institutions are going to come in here and buy our bag. Boy, we're real.

11:12Bijan Maleki:Exactly, exactly. Nope, they're not. They're just going to do what they're going to do and somehow maybe we'll benefit from it, but probably we won't. Well, at least from an investment standpoint, I mean, but hopefully the tech.

11:29Kris Bullock:Yeah. And hopefully the tech, right? Obviously, but it's just so hard to, for like some of these blockchains, how are you going to compete with a Canton? How are you going to compete with a JP Morgan? Like when they've been, they've been printing money basically for decades upon decades, right uh it's just very hard to compete with them when they decide they want to enter this uh this stage so yeah so a quick break in your regular programming if you're serious about your future grab my free report called prepare for 2030 i think you've got five years to make as much money as possible and this guide will help you navigate what's coming the link is in the description download it now speaking of entering right and what it's going to be like for the normal people Stanford dropped their annual AI report.

12:19Kris Bullock:And, oh, man, we've got a lot of interesting tidbits in there. One of the headlines is 10%, only 10 % of Americans are more excited than scared about AI. So, like, I think that should kind of tell you, like, kind of how the normies are thinking about it, in a sense. Chris, what do you think about this? Yeah, it's kind of disheartening, I guess is the word I'll use.

12:49Bijan Maleki:I feel like the AI industry has done a really poor job at marketing themselves in a positive light and sort of conveying the positive aspects of AI and what it can do to improve our lives and improve everything, improve the world. Sure, yes, it's going to make certain jobs, whatever, redundant, of course. But there's so much more. It's like AI, they're not communicating the big picture very well. You know, they're not communicating what the sort of end game is with all of this. And so all the headlines you see is AI is going to take your job. AI data centers are going to destroy your community.

13:27Bijan Maleki:You know, like all of this stuff. And somehow the positive messages aren't making it through, you know, to the masses. And so, I mean, of course they're scared. I get it. But again, it's very disheartening because there's a lot of positive elements of AI that are just sort of lost in the shuffle with all of that. And nobody knows anything. And I don't know how they're going to overcome that. I wish they could do a better job. I mean, these companies have billions and billions of dollars, and they're doing a terrible job at getting the message out. And I get maybe there's a trust factor where, of course, nobody's going to necessarily believe the AI companies themselves.

14:02Bijan Maleki:But I don't know if there needs to be like a trade organization or something somewhere or something that can do a better job at providing more, you know, truthful, factual information about the positive aspects of this revolution. Because there's absolutely good that's going to come from it across all sorts of different levels, you know. And so, yeah, yeah.

14:28Kris Bullock:Yeah, I mean, listen, we're on a collision course. It seems like we're on a collision course right now with this, right? And it's either going to be like the public gradually comes around to it or there's going to be like such insane backlash that like the regulations is going to have to just come fast and furious and could potentially slow this down. So I don't see the latter happening because it's just too profitable. There's too much money involved. Like, look, open AI is almost worth a trillion dollars, basically. So I don't think the latter is happening. And kind of to your point, I don't know if I necessarily blame the AI companies because we see we've been seeing this problem in media for so long.

15:11Kris Bullock:It's just it's like the clickbait culture, right? You know, it's the doom and gloom headlines are the ones that are going to sell. So telling people that AI is going to take their jobs is a lot more of, I guess, an attractive headline for them than telling people, like, if you learn AI, you can get ahead in your job, even though to me that sounds better, right? It just doesn't sell clicks for them. So they're going to obviously go down that sensational route to scare people into clicking. And then, you know, and that's the anxiety that we're seeing being developed. And then you compound that with people are actually getting laid off with AI.

15:49Kris Bullock:And now it's just, you know, a whole effect. Yes, I think the AI companies are going to do a better job of kind of explaining it and showing the value proposition for normal everyday people. But I also think, you know, it's just the case of media doing their media things. We see it in sports, see it in politics, and we're seeing it here now in AI. We've seen it in crypto too, right? So it's just, I think, par for the course for the media here.

16:14Bijan Maleki:No, you're totally right there. And that's a good point. Yes, the media is absolutely not without blame in this scenario, for sure. And the fact that you're right. People are actually getting laid off. So yes, that is a thing, too. I mean, we've talked about it already, you know, and Jack Dorsey in the tweet and, you know, laying off all the, you know, 40 % of the company or whatever. So yes, it is happening. But like, again, I feel like the end game is not communicated very well. And I feel like that people need to know that. And it is complicated. Sure. It's complicated by the likes of. A lot of people see AI, their perspective of AI is the slop side, is the stupid music and the stupid graphic arts and the creative side of it that is just garbage, you know, or the kids using it to cheat on their homework and stuff like that.

17:04Bijan Maleki:And so, yes, there are bad elements of AI, just like there are bad elements of the Internet, you know, or whatever. But, you know, also people are and we're going to get into this article, too. You know, pharmaceutical companies, they're using AI to I mean, they're going to, you know, hopefully cure cancer with AI and things like that. They're going to make all of these amazing vaccines, you know, and ultimately the endgame that people don't talk about. I keep saying this word endgame is eventually, eventually, hopefully it'll get to a point where AI is doing so much of the kind of menial tasks that nobody really wants to do anyway, that it will result in freeing up humans to just have more time for, for humanity, you know, to, to, to, to go about their lives in a way that isn't just so depleting, having to do all of these terrible menial jobs, you know, and it's going to eventually make people's lives better and give them more time to, again, be human, to express themselves creatively, to spend time in nature, to just, you know, I think ultimately it's going to result in a better humanity, but it's going to take, there's going to be a transition period to get there.

18:16Bijan Maleki:And everybody just sees people are losing their jobs without looking at what that ultimately will meet down the road, you know, and yeah.

18:25Kris Bullock:And then also like you, you put pop culture into this too, right? Like people have seen Terminator, they've seen iRobot, they've seen all of these movies and they, they like, they read all these sci-fi like stories. So then when an article comes out that like, you know, Anthropic doesn't know like what mythos is doing and doesn't have full control, people start running wild with that too. Right. So it's like, it's like, oh my God, Terminator is coming to life.

18:52Bijan Maleki:no i know and that and that is a legitimate fear i mean there are you know it's it would be insanely ignorant to just assume that people aren't going to use ai for malicious reasons somewhere along the way and you know there's people out there that are we know that exists and that is a threat and that is kind of scary and i sure i i admit that but i i have to think just from my own personal experience and i know bijan you can say this too we've we're so there's so many things that we're so much better and so much more productive at and so much more we've learned so much we've become more just evolved intelligent you know humans just in the last like three months you know like things have grown leaps and bounds with the way we can produce things and iterate on ideas and just you know get access to information so much easier and things like that and so um i mean it's kind of insane and and so i just wish people could experience that side of it.

19:50Bijan Maleki:And I know that there's people out there that just refuse to even touch it, you know, like from a, even from like a moral standpoint, they're like, I don't want to have anything to do with this. It's just big money. It's big tech. It's, it's, it's, it's the man, you know, coming to put their big thumb on me and I, I'm never going to go near it. I don't care what it can do, you know, and that's just unfortunate. And, and I, and it's even becoming politicized, you know, which is also really unfortunate. And I know we're kind of getting off track here with this this this report actually has a ton of charts that we can deep dive into if if we want if we want here um but yeah there's i don't know this is a big topic this is a big subject we could probably sit and talk for an hour on on this alone and you know what else i've been

20:32Kris Bullock:seeing too uh my i was just talking to my friend literally like the other day about this because you know the rise of local llms is coming you know into fruition we've seen it in google trends Like people are searching, like how to set their own local LLM. And I was talking to my friend about it. And his reasoning behind not wanting to use AI was because he doesn't want these companies to have his data and his intimate information. I was like, if you don't think they have our conversation right now, you're in for a rude awakening, my friend. Sure.

21:05Bijan Maleki:Yeah, no. I mean, absolutely. But it is nice.

21:10Kris Bullock:I'm sorry. Go ahead, Chris. Sorry.

21:11Bijan Maleki:I was going to say, it is nice that there is the option to have this local inference. And I know we're going to, the technology is evolving further towards that, you know, as we talk about edge compute and things like that constantly. But yeah, hopefully that will overcome some of those concerns. Anyway, sorry, I interrupted you. Yeah.

21:30Kris Bullock:Before we move on to the to the pharmaceutical article, just tie a bow on this one. I'll leave you with the laws of physics. Everything has an equal and opposite equal and opposite reaction. Right. So I think for all the bad and the anxiety stuff that you think of with A.I. on the other end of that, it's equally as good. If people are working to attack and like use quantum hacking on the other end of that, people are using A.I. to defend against that kind of stuff. So, yeah.

22:00Bijan Maleki:Yeah, hopefully the good wins in the end, you know?

22:05Kris Bullock:So what is Big Pharma doing right now?

22:09Bijan Maleki:And should we be worried? Well, I know, right? So Eli Lilly has already kind of gotten into this game some time ago, basically partnering with large AI to essentially help them research and help them, you know, because like all of these clinical trials And all of this research, it analyzes just massive, massive data sets, you know, that take normally takes years and billions of dollars to process through. And that's why drugs cost so much. That's why pharmaceuticals are so expensive. It's not just because they they want to price judge everybody. It's because some of the stuff literally takes billions of dollars to research and develop, you know, and that's where AI is coming in.

22:50Bijan Maleki:And AI is basically helping them process all of this information on a much quicker basis and just hopefully get to the end result faster. And so, yeah, basically what has happened here? So there's two big stories here. One of them is Novo Nordisk. Did I say that right? Novo Nordisk. They announced a strategic partnership with OpenAI to basically integrate its most advanced AI capabilities directly into drug development, just like I was saying, which, you know, again, cuts down research, basically just cuts the time it takes to get to clinical trials so that they can start testing these things.

23:29Bijan Maleki:I think that's an easy, easy, no-brainer use case for AI, because again, this is just so much information. And so this is going to be huge. The next story is in this, what was it? Not Novartis, the other one. Novartis. Novartis. Yeah, Novartis. So Novartis basically joined the Anthropic Board of Directors. They took a seat on the Anthropic Board of Directors. So at the board level now, we've got CEOs joining AI boards and essentially just directing the direction of AI and pharmaceuticals in one sort of cohesive thing. And so, yes, both approaches designed to slash the process, the time it takes to develop new pharmaceuticals.

24:18Bijan Maleki:And I think, again, we're only going to see that continue. I'm sure these aren't going to be the only three companies that do this. It's a no-brainer use case. and um i think it's going to lead to it can only lead to good things you know i've heard lots of other people not myself included but say ai is going to cure cancer you know um and it can do also also researching things like um you know genetics and things like that and you know genetic codes and genetic sequences and and find and create sort of bespoke pharmaceuticals that will attack individual cases, you know, and things like that much, much more cheaply than ever was possible, you know.

24:58Bijan Maleki:And so I'm pretty excited for this, honestly. I think this, you know, this is going to have a huge impact on just longevity in the future. And I can't wait. I think it's massive.

25:10Kris Bullock:With the use of AI, right? I'm looking at it also from maybe an investment angle because I'm thinking of Joe Bland, who recently called out United Healthcare stock. And now I'm thinking of something like Big Pharma and like Novo Nordisk using this, right? That's going to speed up their research time, right? It's going to cut their costs like significantly, right? It's going to allow them maybe to put out better and more medications. What do you think this does for their stock?

25:42Bijan Maleki:Yeah, I mean, it can only improve. It's funny, I actually have a watch list in my trading view of pharmaceutical stocks, you know, and I do keep track of them. And they're still a little bit slow moving, but it can only do good. You know, it can only be a good thing. One thing I want to point out to you for people maybe who are new to AI, what we're seeing here with these companies, don't think of this like, oh, they're just going on chat GPT and like asking, how do I make this drug better? You know, like that's not having it sort of having it sort of hallucinate these ridiculous answers and being like, great, here's a new drug.

26:18Bijan Maleki:You know, like that's not at all what's happening here, like at all. know that these companies, these pharmaceutical companies have access to the most advanced models that are not available to the public, that are very bespoke to what is going on, that are trained specifically on the data, the internal data and the internal sort of, you know, scientific process that these companies are using. So this is not the same thing at all as, as, as like what I just said. So don't think this is going to be, oh, I'm going to get some drug and it's going to, you know, make me whatever grow a second arm because of whatever because of ai you know it's it that's not that's not what's happening here like at all so yeah could you imagine oh my god thank god

27:01Kris Bullock:they're not doing that um on just to play a little devil's advocate though on the other side of that i don't know how i feel about novartis joining uh open ai's board i don't know if i like that because i don't know what type of influence they can have because like you see you hear these stories about like how, you know, pharmaceutical companies are always like, you know, giving news agencies ad revenue and therefore like news isn't really reporting so much on like what these companies are doing. I'm a little concerned what that can mean for the AI too. But, you know, that's just me putting on my tinfoil hat and wondering where it can go.

27:40Bijan Maleki:I mean, sure, sure. I get what you're saying. I guess we'll see. Hopefully that means something good in the end. But yeah.

27:49Kris Bullock:Let's make sure we test open AI and make sure they stay honest on that.

27:55Bijan Maleki:Or it's actually anthropic where they join the board. But yes.

27:58Kris Bullock:Okay. Anthropic.

27:59Bijan Maleki:Yeah. All right.

28:02Kris Bullock:Well, another story that we've got, a very interesting one as well, is what, AI and sports betting? like do we do like what's going on here like are you are you are you like considering this as an

28:21Bijan Maleki:angle like what's going on well based on this article i'm not because it didn't do very well in fact it did it did very poorly in fact all three tests or no i think they tested like eight top models um they were all given kind of a virtual bankroll to bet on a full premier league season and all of them lost money and some of them went fully bankrupt. Some of them lost all the money. And they actually didn't do better than this Kelly bench, this sort of spreadsheet thing that was developed back in the 90s. They all knew what it was and they all understood how it worked, but none of the AI models would actually adjust their code to actually utilize the strategy, which was sort of funny and strange.

29:03Bijan Maleki:I'm sure this could be tweaked and I'm sure that Like you could go through this process and go, okay, well, they all failed. Here's what they did wrong. Let me try it again and make sure they do X, Y, Z differently this time to make up for that. So, I mean, who knows, but based on this, I'm not ready to do it yet. Though I still think there's an angle in terms of like prediction markets and having them find, you know, an angle there as opposed to just straight betting on sports. because a lot of times it's like the AI can understand the process. They can understand the formula, but they don't, they can't necessarily process the real world.

29:38Bijan Maleki:You know, like if an athlete gets injured or if, you know, even just intangible things like, like momentum, you know, with a team and morale and things like that, you know, like they can't, they don't know all of that stuff. That's, that's stuff that an AI can never, never process. And so that's always going to be, I think, a hindrance in this regard in terms of like betting purely on sports, you know, directly. But yeah.

30:03Kris Bullock:The way I'm thinking about this right now is this is coming. It's not here yet. It's obviously has a lot of flaws, but that just means there's an opportunity for people that want to address this type of market. Prediction markets are only growing. Calci, Polymarket, they're like, worth$10 billion each right now. And that's only going to continue billions upon billions of dollars in volume on both of them. Once election season comes, it's going to be really mainstream again. So I just see this as an opportunity. And while the AI, like you said, Chris, because you're spot on, the AI, it has some issues with context and literal, real world current different applications, but that doesn't mean that the AI can't help you solve that problem to automate it.

30:53Kris Bullock:So, you know, got to get a little creative, guys. This is definitely something that I think is going to be coming down the line, especially with the rise of prediction markets. So stay tuned for some of these things.

31:07Bijan Maleki:Yeah, exactly. I think this is maybe just an experiment to go, OK, here we tried this. It didn't work. But now we understand why it didn't work. And it's real easy to try something else and learn from those mistakes. Certainly incorporating prediction markets into sports betting with AI, that seems like a no brainer, because it can leverage the insight it gets from just the prediction markets to make sports bets. The prediction markets know what's going on in the real world because that's what's driving them, because that's driven by humans. And so it's a lot easier for it to take that information and produce accurate sports bets i think based on what the the actual humans are interpreting into

31:49Kris Bullock:the prediction markets you know yeah and sports in particular is like such a hard use case for this because like you have the whole thing with changing lineups injuries like you know last minute substitution weather can play a part in all of this as well absolutely like there's so many variables like that context and that memory can really that that can cause ai to make those mistakes. So that's, I think sports might be a really difficult use case for this to start out, but it'll come. Yeah.

32:19Bijan Maleki:Yeah. I agree. I agree. Yeah.

32:22Kris Bullock:So speaking of the last story before we move on to some, some technical indicators and some charts, if you are a struggling company, Chris and I have just the solution for you. Pivot to AI because, oh my God, everyone has heard about Allbirds right now today. And what a bump they've experienced recently. Although still not to their all time high though, right?

32:53Bijan Maleki:Yeah, no, not even close. But yeah, it basically went full meme coin today. It was up like over eight X at one point, I think, on the day, which is just bonkers. I mean, what's even happening there? It is interesting, though. There's a lot to kind of pick apart here. So they essentially sold all of their intellectual property, their manufacturing. They literally just said, we're selling the shoe business entirely. So they sold their shoe business for$39 million and bought a bunch of AI compute hardware, essentially. And they're going to lease it out and provide, you know, AI compute power, essentially.

33:33Bijan Maleki:But it's interesting because they go from competing in a, you know, pretty competitive shoe market where they already weren't doing well to competing in a very competitive AI compute market, you know. So before where they were competing with, I mean, I don't know, whoever. Now they're competing with the likes of like CoreWeave and, you know, AWS and Microsoft Azure and all these big hyperscalers. Like, is that really a better market? I don't know. You know, like, it's not like those guys have way more money to throw around than the, you know, the little bit of money that these guys cobbled together to kind of kind of do this.

34:07Bijan Maleki:So I don't know. It's it's definitely it's it's tricky. It's funny, though. But yeah, it's definitely funny.

34:17Kris Bullock:I love the memes that have come out of this. But like, I do like, honestly, I know they're a shoe company and like it's like, where's their expertise in this pivot? obviously they're going to hire some people that are experts in this and they're going to have you know some type of you know situation they they have their ducks in a row i would imagine if they're making this type of huge pivot it's going to come out of nowhere what i think about this is and i and i think maybe the way all birds is thinking about this is this is a like obviously infrastructure isn't new right the aws is the azure they've been there already but the pivot to AI and the massive demand for all of these data centers within AI is kind of a new market unto itself.

35:01Kris Bullock:Whereas like the shoe market is already established. That thing is old school. You're not going to even get close to Nike, Adidas and, you know, even Fila's market share for that matter. But whereas this is like a generally new sector, they probably have, I think by them making this pivot, they'll be better positioned in this sector than they were in the shoe sector. That's how I'm viewing this.

35:27Bijan Maleki:Yeah, it is safe to say certainly the pie is bigger. There's more to go around here. And there is massive demand for AI compute everywhere. And so, of course, they will have buyers for their service. But how big a slice of pie they end up with in the end, I don't know. I guess that remains to be seen. Certainly, they are going up against some huge money, you know, people that with billions of dollars of resources. And so, but again, maybe, maybe it's just, maybe the pie is plenty big enough. Um, and, and if you are, if you happen to be a fan of Allbirds shoes, they are still around. They sold all of that intellectual property to another company who will continue to produce Allbirds shoes using the same tooling, the same equipment, the same, it's the same pro hopefully it's the same product.

36:13Bijan Maleki:I mean, I think anyway, same branding, everything. So Allbirds as a shoe company will continue to exist. It'll just be owned by a different corporation on top, basically.

36:25Kris Bullock:Interesting stuff. We'll be following Allbirds now, that's for sure. So, all right, guys, we're going to head over to the Real Vision platform and we are going to check out Chris's new AI indicator, or actually a new technical indicator that he created using AI. And we're going to take a look at some AI charts as well. So come on over, join us on the Real Vision platform. We'll see you guys in a bit.

36:56Kris Bullock:All right, everyone. Welcome back, Real Vision members only. So for those of you that tuned into our live TA show in Discord on Monday, this might be just a review for you, but we definitely wanted to showcase this really cool indicator that Chris built using AI. So Chris, I'm going to shut up now. Take it away, my friend.

37:24Bijan Maleki:Yeah, so I figured, like I said, I kind of went through a good bit on Monday, but I wanted to revisit it this time through the lens of how it came to be, why I created it, the process I used to create it. things like that. So this one was a little bit different for me in that I didn't even necessarily know that I needed it right away. Like I was having this long conversation with Claude. It started out about, I was using the megatrend indicator and I was trying to figure out what parameters it needed or what levels it needed to actually flip green. And so I was going back and forth and, you know, like an hour into this long conversation that I was having with Claude, just breaking down the probabilities of, you know, how the next sort of month or so is going to play out with charts, it became apparent that I needed an indicator that showed real yields.

38:16Bijan Maleki:And so like, you know, I'm not going to scroll all the way through this, but eventually I'm like, oh, okay, I need this. And so here I am. Can you make a trading indicator that shows both the long and short end? I meant to say real yields here. Thankfully, it knew what I meant. And so, yeah, it's like of course here you go here i made this line you know i'll make three different threshold areas and boom spit it out done and i love to i love using claude for trading view indicators in particular because it's so easy compared to making dashboards and everything it literally just spits out a script you just copy and paste it open the pine editor in uh in trading view paste it in there load it on the chart um nine times out of ten it works immediately right out of the gate Occasionally you get a one minor syntax error that it has to fix.

39:06Bijan Maleki:So yeah, it threw it up. And let me pull it up here. So basically it made this, which again, if you watch the show, you saw. And at first it was only showing me the forward-looking real rates, because that's kind of what I was, that's the angle I was coming at from the conversation that I was having. And so as I was looking at this, I was like, this is helpful. and it I mean it did this histogram automatically all on its own it you know it kind of had the the two-year ten-year crossover all on its own so it sort of inferred a lot of things that I wouldn't have even thought about which is what I love about Claude it always sort of knows what you want and then some and it gives you more than you actually ever asked for and and it's almost always better it knew to make like the ten-year one in particular the most important and so it made it a big bold line whereas the rest of them are thinner lines also it adjust is like adjust the opacity of the lines based on where they are in the shading area.

40:05Bijan Maleki:And so I thought that was kind of cool too. But then I got to looking at it and I was like, well, this is cool. But one, since it's only using forward looking, it only goes back to like 2008. And I want older historical data. And then two, I also wanted kind of the real time, the sort of realized real yields in addition to the implied base real yields. And so I told it to do that. And it kicked me out a new version through a little checkbox up here. And so in the in the settings, so now I can click this checkbox, and it pivots from forward looking to immediate sort of realized real yields. Same everything else, which was like, yeah, this is this is perfect.

40:44Bijan Maleki:This is exactly what I need. So and I kind of tweaked a little bit here and there and had it adjust the shading. And And, but yeah, it was, it was literally that simple. I spent almost no time on this, you know, probably 10 or 15 minutes total, you know, like, and this is such a usable indicator and I can throw it up on any chart. Oh, and then what I like to do now is I love, I'm like, this is cool. And this is super useful. So I, of course I want to share it with the trading view community and the real vision community and, and with trading that you can publish any idea or any indicator. and prior to using AI to publish stuff and create stuff, it was always such a slog to like, you go into the publishing sequence on TradingView to make it public and you have to write out this description and kind of tell it what it is.

41:33Bijan Maleki:And so of course I just say, Claude, write me out the description, write me out the instructions, explain what this indicator is, explain how it works, explain the instructions. And of course it just kicks you out of full, really in-depth, like amazing, well, here, I'll just pull it up, in-depth explanation of what this is and how it works. And so, you know, it gave this great table and great instruction set. And, you know, even explaining sort of why real yields are relevant and why would you even want to use this indicator in the first place? Like it has all of that in there and it makes it super easy and you know then I can share it with everybody else and easy peasy so um yeah I just it I think it's so cool to be able to have this at our disposal to be able to create indicators on on a whim I mean literally on a whim you're just having a conversation and next thing you know you have this indicator that brings you all this new amazing insight no time at all and and you're everything's you know you're better off for it and you can share it with everybody so it's just a win-win across the board.

42:38Kris Bullock:And did you say, I'm sorry, did you say it took you like 10 minutes to make that?

42:43Bijan Maleki:I mean, yeah, literally. Well, I mean, the first iteration, probably it took Claude not even a minute. I mean, it's so, because they're not that complicated. Like really, like here's the code. Let me just pull up the Pine Editor. You know, whatever. It's 113 lines of code it took to do this. And so it was nothing. It was literally nothing. It just, here you go. Here's your script. Copy, paste, boom, done. Yeah. And it knew exactly what it needed. It pulled everything up. And yeah, there were no issues whatsoever. And so you can tell it to change colors. You can tell it to change line weights and things like that.

43:28Bijan Maleki:And so, yeah, it's just so easy. And I think it's one of the, I don't know if it's underutilized, it's one of the cooler things that I use Claude for, because again, it's so simple. And it helps you just get more insight because there are limitations in terms of like, if you go into the community indicators and look for stuff, it's not always there. It's hard to find stuff or maybe somebody hasn't made something that you're looking for. And so to have the immediate ability to create something out of thin air that gives you additional insight that can help you be a better investor, better analyst going forward.

44:04Bijan Maleki:Yeah, again, it's just this is the this is the amazing world we live in right now. And I love it so much. It's just it's amazing.

44:13Kris Bullock:It really is, honestly. I don't know what those people in the Stanford article are worried about when you have stuff like this that you can use, right? just incredible. Yeah.

44:25Bijan Maleki:And this is probably, I don't know that like I've probably made six or eight really cool indicators, you know, with, with using the same thing. And a lot of times, like I said, it's either I'm having an existing conversation and something comes up where I didn't even know I needed this or other times it's like, I know I kind of need something, but I don't really know what I want it to look like. And so I'll just start again, having a conversation with Claude. Hey, I kind of need this information. Can you help me figure out a way to extract this and present it and display it. And it always does a better job at creating something than what I can come up with in my own head, you know?

44:59Bijan Maleki:And so, yeah, it's just fun. It's fun to, I find myself constantly sitting here thinking like, well, what else can I make an indicator for? Or what other information can I glean from something, you know? And so I think if you're getting into charts and, you know, you're looking at this, like I encourage you to go on Claude or whatever your favorite vibe coding LLM is and just start having to crank out random indicators for you. It's almost like even if there is an indicator that exists, have it make you one anyway, you know, just to a lot of times, like there's been even instances where I found one and like, it was cool, but I posted it on Claude.

45:40Bijan Maleki:I was like, can you kind of make this better? Can you improve on this in any way? And it'll, it'll do that too, you know? um and so yeah it's uh it's it's been it's it's like a really valuable addition to just trading view on its own you know it kind of expands the the capabilities of it far beyond what you get just right out of the box you know and so um yeah get out there and make indicators people like it's it's super fun it's super cool and even if like you don't want to make it like

46:09Kris Bullock:you just said chris you don't want to make it brand new i'm sure there are i mean not sure there definitely are so many indicators out there. And I'm sure there are some that you guys are using where that you love these indicators, but you wish it had like just a little something extra to it. Have Claude, add that extra. And now you have your own custom indicator, right? And you don't have to build one from scratch. Just take what you already know, love and use and add a spin to it. And now you've got a super indicator. And another, I want to take it even a step further, because Chris mentioned how he liked to share this with the TradingView community and share with the community in general, create these indicators and share them within Real Vision.

46:48Kris Bullock:People like Chris and Berger and a bunch of our other people that are using TradingView and creating their own indicators will very likely check out the one that you made, maybe test it out and give you some feedback as well. And you guys can tinker with it also because I literally just posted in the Pro Chat and Discord this morning, a 24-hour summary of that chat, right? And then Berger responds to it with a cool prompt that I can add and how I can really make it cool and add links and add a leaderboard and all that. So that's the hive mind right there, guys. And I'm going to go do that. And I'm going to coordinate with Berger.

47:26Kris Bullock:And now we're going to make a super cool summary bot in Discord for all of you guys. It's going to be awesome. So anyway, that wasn't part of it. I just got really excited and had to mention that. uh chris should we uh should we maybe end up here maybe taking a look at some some charts and seeing

47:44Bijan Maleki:what what the markets do yeah well yeah definitely i wanted to start with the bird the all verbs chart because i i had to share that it's just bonkers looking at it it's so funny i mean it was literally it's at one point it was up 850 today and so it opened at two dollars it's at 17 it got as high as 25 man i'm like man can you imagine knowing about this like uh you know of course someone definitely somebody did somewhere i i'm sure uh but the funny thing is the funny thing is you got to zoom out because if you look at the zoomed out suddenly the it's it's not nearly as good of a picture overall like you're like oh okay now i get why they pivoted you know I mean, what did it IPO at?

48:32Bijan Maleki:Like five, I can't even see it up here. Five, like 650, something like that. So it's back up to$17 people. So no. Also, don't go chasing this. This is like not, if you weren't already in, you missed the boat, like for sure. this is a sell the news thing absolutely it's already down you know uh 200 percentage points from from where it peaked so yeah it's already it's already on its way this isn't the kind of thing that's going to keep ripping um or at least not after giving back most of this first but if their data center business proves to be profitable i mean sure that could drive the price up which is it's worth like keeping a keeping on your radar you know because again that we talked about that That pie is big.

49:20Bijan Maleki:Maybe that may, you know, and this stock is somewhat adjusting to the new revenue potential of the stock. I mean, that's partially what's driving this beyond just the hype of it. So yeah, I mean, if suddenly their earnings are killing it and they're actually making money, then this will go up. But you don't want to buy a big hype candle like this. I mean, that's just asking for trouble. Like that's, that's number one rule of thumb, you know? both. But yeah, outside of that, it's funny, stocks generally are down overall on the day, but there's so much that's doing well. And I keep, I have this, this AI watch list that I continue to add to, you know, every week or two, and it's only getting bigger and bigger.

50:02Bijan Maleki:And there's only, there's more and more IT infrastructure companies that are coming along. There's more and more semiconductor companies that are coming along that are entering, not entering the space so much, but sort of coming into my radar, you know, because there's a lot of companies out there. But I mean, it's funny. I could go through a bunch of these, which I'll just click on some. Memory is continuing to be the number one play. Like it's the scarcity play. And so we're seeing all of the memory companies, like high bandwidth memory and high performance storage companies, things like Micron, things like Western Digital, things like seagate um things like sandisk let me look at these charts they're they're all like they're all just they're all kind of insane you know and they're it's like this is this is the alt season that i keep talking about that everyone when alt season when all all season is right here and it's in memory people it's in it's in storage companies um yeah they're all just continuing to but there's like new ones that are coming along and and some of the peripheral ones that i've talked about, like Corning continues to rip because they're making fiber optic connectivity for data centers and for edge compute.

51:13Bijan Maleki:That's just, you know, everybody thought, oh, maybe it's cooked here. It came all the way back to its 10-week moving average. Yep, nope, new all-time high is like a week later, basically. Same thing with like Selenese is another one. Now, this isn't straight up into the right like this, but this is because people are like, oh, suddenly, well, now chemicals are more expensive because oil is more expensive, and this company is making all kinds of products, specialty plastics and things like that, that are going to go into IT infrastructure and containers and edge compute devices and robotics and things like that.

51:44Bijan Maleki:And so suddenly there's a huge bid for specialty chemical companies. And we're seeing things like that. So that's another area to look at. Outside of that, I mean, yeah, just all of the semis. Intel, I think, is one that's been killing it lately too. Yeah, like a massive week last week, up 23 % last week. What was another one that killed it that I just, oh, Energy too. That's what it was. Bloom Energy up huge last week and this week. So last week it was up 22%. This week it's up 32%. I think off the back of a.

52:20Kris Bullock:Really quickly, just look at this chart though. Like it's like God candle after God candle after. It's just insane.

52:30Bijan Maleki:Right, right. This was a deal. Well, forgive me if maybe it's in here in the news. They signed a deal with a data center company to provide in-house power. Maybe it was Oracle. Yeah, Oracle. Like Oracle, they signed a deal with Oracle to help power Oracle data centers. Because nobody wants to pay the power prices for data centers to be powered. So the data centers themselves are having to provide their own power. So they're signing on with companies like Bloom Energy to create power generation to power their data centers. And so this is, we're looking at backlogged order books here, basically, for power for data center build outs.

53:16Bijan Maleki:And so that's why, yes. And so it's funny when we think of the idea of AI stocks, nobody thinks of Bloom Energy or like Caterpillar, you know, for example. But these are all the companies that are on the periphery that are part of powering this whole revolution. You know, whether it's actually creating the power generators themselves, the gas turbines or the construction equipment needed to build the data centers, you know, or whatever, or the electronics switching gear that are needed to power the data centers and cool the data centers, you know, the HVAC systems, the stuff like that, you know, that not on anybody's radar.

53:55Bijan Maleki:Or what does that have to do with AI? What does Comfort Systems USA that provides duct work have to do with the AI build out? Well, a lot, actually. And just look at their stock. Those data centers generate a lot of heat, and they need to cool them somehow. And so that's where Comfort Systems USA comes in. So you've got to think way outside the box. It's not just the Mag7. It's not just Google and Neta and Amazon and NVIDIA. I mean, sure, those are good, too, but there's so much more to it. I mean, and it's massive and it covers so many different sectors. And all of this speaks to scarcity. You know, all of this is stuff that is in high demand, that there's not enough of, that there's going to be demand for for years into the future.

54:41Bijan Maleki:And it's pretty easy when you think about it through that filter that, you know, that it's kind of a no brainer. Like, oh, well, is there enough of this? No, it's scarce. Yes. Does it need? Is it part of the AI infrastructure? Yes. Okay. It's probably going to do well. Yeah.

54:58Kris Bullock:Chris, do you know if there's like a picks and shovels ETF, like basically ETFs are funds that we can invest in that? Because there's so many, right? Between like, you know, cooling and infrastructure, data centers, semiconductors. It's like, I can imagine some people might, like their brains might get fried trying to figure out like which one to pick, but like it would be a lot more attractive to be able to invest in a fund that has a basket of all of these. Do those exist yet?

55:29Bijan Maleki:To some extent, I don't know one that's super dialed in to this. There are ones that focus on various sectors. There's certainly energy ETFs. There's certainly, even within, like this one is actually just a solar ETF on its own, but there are energy ones, there are power related ones. There's a brand new one that actually just came out a week or two ago, DRAM, that is a memory ETF and it's brand new. Let me kind of go, here, I'll just put this on like the one hour.

56:02Kris Bullock:We just saw those memory stock charts.

56:04Bijan Maleki:Yeah, and not surprising. I mean, it only came out on the second, so it's right at about two weeks old, but, you know, huge gap up from the first day to the second day, huge gap up from the second day to third day. And then, you know, it's just kind of gap after gap. And yeah, and it's only going higher because the memory stocks are only going higher. And I don't have it in front of me. I wish I had a screenshot, but it's primarily composed of three big ones. I want to say Micron is one of them. I'm pretty sure SanDisk is one of them. And then HK Hynix, which is a Korean memory company, and maybe Samsung also is in the mix.

56:45Bijan Maleki:And so those are kind of the big core ones. And then there's a few smaller ones, smaller positions too. So this is a good way to get memory exposure if you don't want to just buy one of those companies. Though it's funny, I've primarily, like I've personally bought Micron off and on throughout out this. And when you look, they all kind of go up and down generally about the same. So it's like, I don't want to just buy one because what if I miss, but they're all sort of doing the same thing. So yeah, you can buy the ETF, but it's like if you just buy one of them or two of them, you'll end up with more or less the same results anyway in the end, it seems like, because they're all hammering it in terms of their revenues and their earnings reports and their projections and all of that stuff.

57:30Bijan Maleki:But yeah, DRAM. Check out DRAM if you want memory exposure. You can access it on any brokerage. Also, you can get it on Kraken if you want to stay within the crypto ecosystem. It's not on Coinbase yet, even though Coinbase is now offering stocks too, but I checked yesterday and it wasn't there, but it is on Kraken. So yeah, that's what I know about that, but there, yes, there needs to be a proper ETF that kind of encompasses a lot of, the problem is, is it's, I mean, this list is 50 or 60 odd symbols. And it's like, at some point it goes from being an ETF to kind of turning into a mutual fund or an index fund, you know, it's like, so you, you, you kind of have to be a little more choosy there, but yeah.

58:16Kris Bullock:Well, let's get a semiconductor ETF out there too. Cause I'd be interested in that if somebody's watching uh chris thanks again for breaking us down through it all and for uh for highlighting that that cool indicator that you created as well um guys we'll be back on monday for live ta and discord and of course we'll be back next wednesday for another edition of trading the markets if you are someone that's working with ai and you want to showcase that give us a give us some shoot us a message and, you know, come on the show.
