In this episode we sit down with writer and investor Anu Atluru to talk about teams, taste, and why AI shifts work from labor to leverage. We get into:

“I don’t want an AI, I want a teammate”: how to pick the 5–10 people who amplify your edge
The skills triage: in an AI world, human skills become extinct, art, or sport
Venture as the last job: allocation, bets, and why taste still matters
Media, machines, medicine: the 3 arenas she’s betting on for the next decade
Writing with AI, the right way: upstream ideation, downstream critique—protect the messy middle
Doom-prompting is the new doomscrolling: avoiding the dopamine trap

If you’re building or creating, Anu’s prompt is simple: choose better tools—and better people. Use AI to offload the draining parts, keep your human “messy middle,” and express your taste where it counts.
