Show Mission

The Wes + Dylan AI Podcast examines the rapid expansion of artificial intelligence through the lens of systems, infrastructure, and long-term impact.

From computational theory to industrial deployment, the show connects the researchers defining intelligence with the builders scaling it.

As AI compute demand accelerates globally, conversations increasingly focus on the physical realities behind intelligence at scale: energy density, data center expansion, cooling constraints, and grid resilience. This is where curiosity meets infrastructure.

Global Reach & Audience

The Wes + Dylan AI Podcast reaches a global audience of technical founders, investors, AI engineers, researchers, and infrastructure strategists across:

• YouTube
• Apple Podcasts
• Spotify
• iHeartRadio

The show attracts decision-makers navigating AI deployment at scale, from software architects to energy-conscious system builders.

Episodes regularly spark discussion across AI engineering communities and technology forums worldwide.

AI Scale

Artificial intelligence is no longer a software story alone. It is an infrastructure story.

As hyperscale data centers expand globally, energy availability, storage capacity, and grid flexibility are becoming primary constraints on AI deployment.

The show actively explores the intersection of intelligence, compute, and physical infrastructure — positioning it as a platform for forward-looking energy and systems leaders.

Show Structure

Frequency

One episode per week. Deep-dive conversations ranging from 60–95 minutes.

What Make This Show Different

It’s not surface commentary. Wes and Dylan engage directly with the people shaping artificial intelligence, robotics, biotech, and frontier science — from alignment theorists to computational physicists to industry architects building the infrastructure of AGI.

The format is unscripted, high-curiosity, and rigorous. Conversations go where the ideas lead.

Core Thesis

We are living through the fastest intelligence expansion in human history. This show exists to understand it before it understands us.
