Peter Yang in Conversation with Pompliano: How AI Startups Compete with Trillion-Dollar Giants
Peter Yang released a new episode of his conversation with investor and creator Anthony Pompliano, who is now the founder of Silvia, an AI CFO product for independent investors. The two discussed how AI startups can build lasting moats and compete with leading AI labs, as well as how to hire AI-native talent. Pompliano described résumé-polished hires from big companies as "like a car crash," and said AI makes users willing to ask any financial question.

"Do you know what it's like to wake up one day and have a trillion dollar company compete with you?"
Here's my new episode with @APompliano, who I worked with a decade ago at Facebook. Since then, he's had an incredible career as an investor, creator with 3M+ followers, author, and now founder of Silvia, an AI CFO for independent investors.
Pomp and I had a great chat about:
→ How he built his extraordinary career → How AI startups can build durable moats and compete with the top AI labs → How he hires AI-native talent
Some quotes from Pomp:
"I went to these big companies to hire people with great resumes. Every one of those people were amazing, but it was like a car wreck."
"With financial questions, people are scared of being judged or don't want to come off as dumb. With AI, you can ask anything."
"My version of an extraordinary life? Work hard, solve interesting problems, and set an example for my 4 kids."
