1 rich Libsyn https://www.libsyn.com 90 600 David Gutierrez, Vice President at Liberty Street Advisors and part of the team running the&amp;nbsp;Private Shares Fund, says that private markets are similar enough to public markets that artificial intelligence is now one of the big sweet spots in both. However, he says the best opportunities involve infrastructure more than AI itself.&amp;nbsp;Gutierrez notes that the Private Shares Fund—an actively managed, continuously offered closed-end interval fund investing in late-stage venture capital and private company opportunities—is focusing heavily on AI infrastructure right now. For instance, he explains how the shift from copper-based to optical-based networking in servers has become an investable trend, and how this trend depends not on AI performance but rather on the demand for more AI technology support. Gutierrez also discusses shifting trends in how long private companies are waiting before going public, and how geopolitics could be impacting private firms.&amp;nbsp; The NAVigator http://thenavigator.libsyn.com/website <iframe title="Libsyn Player" style="border: none" src="//html5-player.libsyn.com/embed/episode/id/41003785/height/90/theme/custom/thumbnail/yes/direction/forward/render-playlist/no/custom-color/88AA3C/" height="90" width="600" scrolling="no" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen></iframe> https://assets.libsyn.com/secure/item/41003785
