Jeff Bezos In 1999 On Amazon’s Plans Before The Dotcom Crash
Jeff Bezos explained his ambitious vision for Amazon in a 1999 interview. He made clear the company’s focus was on “great customer service” and discussed his real estate strategy. Bezos said, “There’s no guarantee that Amazon.com can be a successful company. What we’re trying to do is very complicated.” He added, “Scale is important to us and we’re going to go after that kind of scale.”

Jeff Bezos In 1999 On Amazon’s Plans Before The Dotcom Crash

CNBC Marathon explores how Tesla, Rivian and Dodge’s new electric vehicles are transforming the automotive industry.
Over the past decade, Dodge has dug deep into its performance car heritage and become a brand known for brash American muscle cars with supercharged V-8 engines and ridiculous amounts of horsepower. But tightening regulations, rising fuel prices and the rise of the SUV are putting the squeeze on Dodge’s so-called “brotherhood of muscle.” It recently debuted the Charger Daytona SRT EV, an electric car that looks a lot like its popular supercharged Challenger and Charger. Will Dodge fans or EV buyers want it?
Five years after Elon Musk first announced the Tesla Semi, it’s finally hitting roads. CNBC visited Pepsi’s Frito-Lay facility in Modesto, California, where it is using the new electric trucks, to see whether the Semis live up to the hype.
A new electric vehicle company hopes to take on Tesla with its outdoor adventure trucks and SUVs. And its deal with Amazon to build 100,000 electric delivery vans could help it succeed. Founded in 2009, Rivian is focusing on upscale electric trucks and SUVs with an emphasis on outdoor adventure. CNBC’s John Rosevear calls them the “Patagonia of electric vehicles.” Last month, Rivian and Amazon rolled out the first of the electric vans. They are starting to deliver packages in a handful of cities, including Seattle, Baltimore, Chicago and Phoenix.
After manufacturing’s 40-year cycle of decline in the U.S., officials in Washington are trying to bring it back. This move could be a boom or bust for huge swaths of the American Midwest. This region once dominated the auto industry before rising global trade and automation sent domestic manufacturing employment into a tailspin. U.S. leaders hope that new laws such as the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 will help businesses create the green manufacturing jobs of the future.

How Car Makers Are Switching To EVs | CNBC Marathon
source
Lowered compliance costs, greater control over products, more big engines, more pickup trucks. These are just some of the changes investors expect from the rollback of fuel economy rules and the elimination of fines. Data indicate pent up demand for pickup trucks, and many automakers are bringing back V-8 engines. At the same time, hybrid vehicles are surging, and electric vehicles have longer term structural demand in their favor.

Why Fuel Economy Rollbacks Will Spur More Trucks, More V-8 Engines

U.S. chip manufacturing faces a shortage of up to 157,000 skilled workers by 2030, a matter of concern for companies like Samsung.
Schools including Purdue and Arizona State have new semiconductor degree programs, and all the biggest chipmakers are investing millions to create pipelines of U.S. chip talent.
CNBC’s Katie Tarasov has the details. Watch the related video for full report.

CNBC’s Michael Wayland takes a first look at electric vehicle startup Slate Auto’s modular $25,000 pick up trucks. The cars are affordable and basic, with features that buyers can customize. That includes turning the truck into an SUV. The vehicles had more than 150,000 refundable reservations before their release, despite waning consumer demand in EVs in the U.S. The company is about to find out if the truck can disrupt the market.

CNBC Takes A First Look At Slate Auto’s $25,000 Modular Cars
source
AI data centers are driving unprecedented demand for electricity and putting renewed pressure on America’s power grid to modernize its equipment and develop greener, more efficient sources of power. Google, Meta, Microsoft and Amazon are all spending millions of dollars on local infrastructure upgrades and companies like SpaceXAI are even building off-grid power plants to power their data centers.
Google says its planned 780-megawatt data center in Pine Island, Minnesota, could offer a model for powering the AI boom. In a proposed agreement with Xcel Energy, Google says it will support 1,900 megawatts of new wind, solar and battery capacity, while minimum payments and exit fees are intended to protect local ratepayers if demand falls short.
CNBC examines whether projects like Pine Island can make the grid cleaner without shifting costs to existing customers, why some energy experts argue that smaller data centers could make better use of infrastructure already in place, and how utilities’ financial incentives can complicate efforts to build less.

He almost seems like he's on drugs – but it's more likely just pure intensity and passion. He KNEW everything he was doing and he didn't care if the interviewer or anybody else thought differently. "That's bad math".

@schlenbea

Amazon's customer service (getting help with issue pre/post sale) is HORRIFIC. Chaining AI with scripted non-English speakers does not work. However, Amazon's customer experience is, by far, the best out there and everyone is copying them. It's insane that I can flick my thumb and press my index finger in my phone before bed, and have the item I bought in my doorstep the next morning.
@endlessendless2391
December 20, 2023 at 5:37 am
Customer experience is not the only thing, which matters. Employee treatment also matters. Amazon is exploiting their delivery drivers through DSPs forcing them to deliver in harsh conditions , discouraging them from calling in sick, which is why nobody should buy anything from Amazon.
