Financial markets have been captivated by AI's opportunities since the launch of ChatGPT two years ago. Huge investments have flowed into established chip companies and the hyperscalers that make the infrastructure supporting AI – from Nvidia and TSMC to Alphabet, Microsoft and Amazon.

Esther Wong, founder of 3C AGI Partners, one of Asia's first AI-focused venture capital funds, and formerly a managing director at SenseTime, discusses the next phase of this technology and shares her outlook on the industry – data centers in space may not be as far-fetched as you think. She joins John Lee and Katia Dmitrieva on the Asia Centric podcast.
