The Algorithm Knows Your Pain Point: How AI is Revolutionizing What You Pay
In this episode, we explore how algorithms are revolutionizing business strategy and pricing across industries. Delta Airlines is using AI to analyze customer data and set personalized ticket prices, expanding from 3% to 20% of domestic flights by year-end, while critics call it "predatory pricing." Netflix proves that first-mover advantages still matter, crushing Q2 earnings with $11.1 billion in revenue and 50% profit growth despite intense streaming competition. Union Pacific is reportedly exploring a transcontinental railroad empire by acquiring East Coast carriers like CSX or Norfolk Southern, potentially creating America's first coast-to-coast rail network. Meanwhile, homebuilders are slashing prices at the highest rate in three years, but buyers remain on the sidelines due to high mortgage rates, creating an unusual market standoff. Finally, Chevron scored a major victory in international arbitration, clearing the path for their $53 billion Hess Corporation acquisition and access to valuable Guyana oil assets that Exxon tried to block.
