“Our quarterly earnings this year for Q3, last quarter, was 1,700% compared to a year before. That is 17x growth. That is a whole order of magnitude… that’s really my north star. Like, we got to grow 10x every year.” — Greg Osuri, 00:19:48

“There’s no stopping of this technology, this is unstoppable… [The US] has to move out of people’s way… and remove all the export controls… if we didn’t have export controls, DeepSeek wouldn’t exist.” — Greg Osuri, 00:46:22

“There historically hasn’t been a single success story… that’s overfunded, that actually innovated… Solana is a classic story, Ethereum is a classic story… most successful teams always have significantly lower funding because… once you have money you have distractions.” — Greg Osuri, 00:02:54

“If I were to do it today, I would most likely do it as Solana or one of these shared-state chain systems… when you do sovereign, yes, you have the benefits of control, but if you ask yourself deeply, do you really need that control in the early stages?” — Greg Osuri, 00:12:22

“They’re going to have their own ChatGPT moment in the next three months — they’re very very close, they did release a paper… It’s my prediction now: I think AI is going to have its web-three moment very very soon.” — Greg Osuri, 00:46:23

“We’re seeing quite a lot of AI projects in crypto popping up and getting listed and getting a lot of attention. Be aware of any of these — anything that has a GPT in the title generally is a scam… none of them have open source software. They’re all closed, they’re all mostly OpenAI API wrappers.” — Greg Osuri, 00:17:17

“Now the question is how do you create a truly open source software and give everything out, you know, like all the features, capabilities, and somehow capture value and sustain? That’s where tokenized open-source software comes into play — I think is a much superior model than traditional software.” — Greg Osuri, 00:15:50

“AI is an evolutionary step for humanity. And I think, you know, in 100 years, I definitely can see a birth of a new species that’s augmenting AI and humans.” — Greg Osuri, 00:04:12

“If you think AI is going to be the most transformative technology in our generation, which I believe it is — I believe about 100 years from now people will look back at this era and… think about, this is the era that defined human acceleration. I think we’re going to have a exponential growth, and humans are not good at visualizing exponential growth.” — Greg Osuri, 00:39:08

“Let’s build a cloud no one can shut down. Let’s build the intelligence layer of a free civilization… A type one civilization isn’t built on one warehouse or by one company. It’s born across a thousand rooftops and million racks and billions of watts all working in harmony… Let’s build an open planetary scale AI — resistant, renewable, and unstoppable… Let’s meet at Kardashev 1.” — Greg Osuri, 04:44:30

“The states can get into owning part of these data centers through bonds… issue municipal bonds… that can go build out data centers and give its citizens a way, or its treasury a way, to earn or get the upside from AI… nobody has focused on what happens underneath the chips: we need energy, we need the lines, our transmission infrastructure is aging.” — Greg Osuri, 04:53:12

“AI is no longer an emerging technology. It’s here and it’s becoming the bedrock of modern civilization… Soon, every major institution from hospitals to the military will integrate AI into their core operations.” — Greg Osuri, 00:00:01

“Their DeepSeek model R1 rivals top tier US models… If DeepSeek is any indication of China’s momentum, we are far behind them. It won’t matter who leads in algorithms if the US keeps treating infrastructure as an afterthought, because we’re on track to lose the platform war.” — Greg Osuri, 00:01:28

“If you look at AI, it is a substrate of civilization. There are very few substrates that we have historically. We had electricity as a substrate. We had water as a substrate… So the foundational technology is not a feature. There’s no technology or no area in humanity that AI will not touch.” — Greg Osuri, 00:02:29

“I guarantee you, the state at which AI is right now, it cannot replace a human being. Not even close… AI once trained cannot learn continuously… but a human being will be replaced by someone that knows how to use AI, for sure.” — Greg Osuri, 01:36:43

“People that know how to use AI are going to disrupt people that don’t use AI, hands down. We have an active policy in the company… if you don’t do it by X amount of time, you’re going to be replaced, and we’re very public about it… I think that’s going to be standard across different companies.” — Greg Osuri, 01:43:51

“Cardashev level one civilization is a civilization that figured out how to capture all sources of energy on the home planet… We’re currently at 0.7 level… In my lifetime, I’d like to see us go towards a type one at least. That would be my dream and that’s something I want to work towards.” — Greg Osuri, 00:52:29

“The founders of Cosmos [aren’t] active anymore, and when you don’t have the founder mode, the fire usually dies. Very rarely you can see an example — I think the only example I can think of where the founder is not present is probably Satoshi in Bitcoin… You can have the founders retire or go when you have a level of maturity, and Cosmos doesn’t have the level of maturity for the founders to go silent.” — Greg Osuri, 00:10:44

“It’s been thriving. I think we have 10x revenue in the last year and we are growing pretty aggressively… we’re expanding to virtual machines and even bare metal… I think we’ll be one of the first ones to do that for a decentralized network.” — Greg Osuri, 00:34:38
