Episode 2 of the AI gold rush docuseries drops you into the crazy rise of Bolt AI, how a founder who was literally living at the AOL offices homeless used AI to go from nothing to a billion‑dollar company, fast.
You’ll see what “press the right buttons” actually looks like: flatline to hypergrowth, laptop to real money, and $1M in prizes for people starting from zero. It’s raw, fast, and inside the rooms where decisions get made. If you’re curious how the AI wave is creating winners right now, you’re gonna want to watch this.
