Tokenmaxxing<\/a>\u00a0was\u00a0the hottest trend in Silicon Valley earlier this year, with CEOs encouraging employees to push AI usage as far\u00a0as it would go.\u00a0Then the bill came due<\/a>. Uber\u00a0reportedly blew\u00a0through its annual AI budget in a few months, some companies cut Claude licenses for parts of their org, and Meta killed its internal leaderboard.\u00a0<\/p>\n This tension between hype and ROI is exactly where\u00a0NEA partner Tiffany Luck<\/a>\u00a0lives these days. She got her start convincing companies that e-commerce was the future, and now\u00a0she\u2019s\u00a0all in on AI, especially when it comes to the possibilities for \u201cmagic moments\u201d in the consumer business.\u00a0<\/p>\n On this episode of TechCrunch\u2019s\u00a0Equity<\/a>\u00a0podcast, Luck joins Rebecca Bellan to talk about the future of personal agents, her thoughts on this year\u2019s AI IPOs, and how startups are stepping in to help enterprises track return on AI spend.\u00a0<\/p>\n Subscribe to Equity on\u00a0YouTube<\/a>,\u00a0Apple Podcasts<\/a>,\u00a0Overcast<\/a>,\u00a0Spotify<\/a>\u00a0and all the casts.
