Is AI infrastructure really a bubble, or is demand still far ahead of supply? In this condensed 20VC episode, Harry Stebbings speaks with Nebius co-founder Roman Chernin about the economics of compute, AI infrastructure, and why cheaper intelligence can actually increase usage.

You’ll also hear Chernin’s view on hyperscalers, portfolio-based data center strategy, and the risks that matter most in the AI market. If you’re tracking artificial intelligence, machine learning, big tech trends, and the future of cloud infrastructure, this episode distills the key insights fast.
