Firstly, apologies for the quality of the recording, we had a minor technical malfunction. Nevertheless, we dig into the buzzy announcement from Donut Labs about their new solid-state battery, examining the bold claims against the backdrop of past tech hype cycles. They weigh the potential implications for EVs, grid storage, and everyday devices while maintaining a healthy dose of skepticism about what it takes to go from flashy demo video to real-world impact.
