The FDA has approved Regeneron’s gene therapy for a rare form of inherited deafness, and it’s free for Americans. Regeneron CEO Leonard Schleifer discusses the breakthrough treatment, drug pricing, AI’s role in medical innovation, and what breakthroughs might come next. Co-chair of the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology David Sacks was one of the original executives at PayPal, alongside Elon Musk and Peter Thiel. As an AI and crypto advisor to President Trump, the All In Podcast co-host is helping shape AI regulation and policy in the United States. He comments on the government’s complicated relationship with Anthropic and the ongoing feud between Elon Musk and Sam Altman. Plus, a U.S. soldier was arrested for his winning Polymarket bet on the capture of Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro, and Intel reported a blowout quarter.
