In part two of our conversation, he explains the hidden companies who really control healthcare, where AI is headed, and the biggest opportunities most people are missing.
He also shares the advice he gives young people, the three “superpowers” he believes matter more than talent, network, or money, and the one question he thinks everyone should ask themselves.

[chime] Last time, Mark Cuban talked about what makes a great entrepreneur and why he started Cost Plus Drugs. In part two, he gets into how a handful of massive companies dominate healthcare, and why that's no accident. He also shares where he thinks AI is really headed, and where the biggest opportunities are right now. So what does he tell kids when they ask if they have what it takes? And what are his three superpowers for success? [instrumental music] Hi, everyone. I'm Lynn Tolman, and this is Three Takeaways. On Three Takeaways, I talk with some of the world's best thinkers, business leaders, writers, politicians, newsmakers, and scientists.
