Primer Podcast #25 - Quibi, Facebook Anti-Trust, Taiwan's Asus

Happy Monday! On today's episode, we talk about Quibid. Quibi is trying to create the first entertainment platform built for easy, on-the-go mobile viewing, allowing today's leading studios and creative talent to tell original stories in an entirely new way. It also develops short-form media content designed for smartphones. They have raised $2B so far and currently are having some issues. We feel as if Quibi might come back into a topic as some rumours are spreading about a potential merger or acquisition or a public offering through a potential SPAC. Facebook is also going through some antitrust issues. It seems as if Facebook has constantly had a target on its back. With the social dilemma and Are we going to have a Face App and Book App? Is Facebook the New Standard Oil? We are looking into Tech potentially overreaching or is the government overreaching with their claims?  We also talk about Taiwan and Asus as they plan to create new manufacturing processes. The process involved machines that leverage AI and Machine Learning in order to do more tasks. This is huge because this can lead to more education of the population. Asus has already said that there is a 5% yield increase through these new productions. This seems to be the way innovation is taking place on a manufacturing standpoint.
