Description: Shaun Maguire, partner at Sequoia and former physicist turned investor, joins the Limitless Podcast to explore why we’re on the verge of a technological renaissance. From AI and silicon photonics to humanoid robots and space infrastructure, Shaun makes the case that the next 20 years will make the internet boom look tame. We dive deep into why America needs 10 SpaceX-level companies, the return of hardware innovation, the energy constraints of the future, and how frontier technologies like Neuralink and Mars colonization might reshape civilization. ------ 💫 LIMITLESS | SUBSCRIBE & FOLLOW https://pod.link/1813210890 https://www.youtube.com/@Limitless-FT https://x.com/LimitlessFT ------ BANKLESS SPONSOR TOOLS: 🪙FRAX | SELF SUFFICIENT DeFi https://bankless.cc/Frax 🦄UNISWAP | SWAP ON UNICHAIN https://bankless.cc/unichain 🛞MANTLE | MODULAR LAYER 2 NETWORK https://bankless.cc/Mantle 🌐SELF | PROVE YOUR SELF https://bankless.cc/Self 🟠HEMI | BTC & ETH, ONE NETWORK https://bankless.cc/hemi ------ TIMESTAMPS 0:00 Intro 6:36 Who’s Shaun Maguire? 9:24 Investing in the AI Age 13:06 Hardware Manufacturing 21:58 Hardware Precedes Software Revolutions 42:20 Energy 49:53 Space Solar Reflectors 55:45 Space Economy 1:04:15 Elon Musk 1:14:24 Robotics 1:17:39 Neuralink 1:25:22 Doom Scenarios 1:32:02 Closing Thoughts ------ RESOURCES Shaun Maguire https://x.com/shaunmmaguire Sequoia Capital https://www.sequoiacap.com/ Josh Kale https://x.com/Josh_Kale David Hoffman https://x.com/TrustlessState ------ Not financial or tax advice.
