    <description>A podcast from Reserve about the AI revolution: the technology, the power, and the future it's pulling us toward. Reserve co-founder and CEO Nevin Freeman explores the AI boom from two angles: how to invest in it and own your share of the buildout, and where AI may really take us in the long term. But it's really about investing our way out of the permanent underclass.</description>
