The Dart Board with Daniel Dart

Meet Kevin Novak, founder and general partner of Rackhouse Venture Capital, an AI-native early-stage venture firm. From Michigan and a path to becoming a professor to leaving everything to join a 'cab company' in Silicon Valley, we talk about what it was like to be the first data scientist at Uber - and how he got fired from leading the team while on vacation, and how it was a blessing in disguise that he still uses as a lesson on how to be a better leader. We discuss his take on AI, where the best place is to invest in AI, and how nuclear power can play a role. We also learned how the most challenging things he's faced have made him better today and how they can do the same for you.
