We've talked about chips, energy, and infrastructure on this channel constantly, but there's a piece of the puzzle that's just starting to get attention: data. Don't miss MarketBeat's Bridget Bennet interview with Dan Novaes, the CEO of Mode Mobile, a company built around giving consumers a share of the value created from their own data. We break down what this ruling actually means for AI companies going forward, why data is becoming such a valuable and legally contested resource, and how robotics and AI agents are driving massive new demand for human data at scale. We also get into how companies are already paying huge sums for data licensing deals, what's changing on September 15th that could reshape how AI companies access online content, and what investors should be watching as this space matures. If you're trying to understand the next layer of the AI infrastructure story beyond chips and power, this is a conversation you don't want to miss.
