For episode 611 of the BlockHash Podcast, host Brandon Zemp is joined by Tim Lewis, Co-founder of tea.xyz.Tea Protocol's CoinList token launch comes at a pivotal moment as critical open-source infrastructure faces a funding crisis. With Shipyard ceasing support for libp2p, the networking backbone powering Ethereum, IPFS, and $100B+ worth of blockchain networks, on September 30th due to resource constraints, Tea.xyz's blockchain-based solution for compensating open-source maintainers has never been more relevant. Founded by Homebrew creator Max Howell, Tea represents the convergence of crisis and solution, demonstrating how crypto can finally solve real infrastructure problems rather than fueling speculation. ⏳ Timestamps: (0:00) Introduction(1:17) Who is Tim Lewis?(6:10) What is Tea Protocol?(10:36) Solutions for open source software development(18:45) Dev incentivization & contributors(20:52) Tea Token Sale(22:47) Tea roadmap(26:12) Events & Conferences(27:25) Tea website, socials & community
For years, health systems have approached ambulatory care as a pipeline for inpatient volumes. But today's health care environment calls for a new mindset—one that prioritizes ambulatory capabilities designed to drive enterprise-wide success. Challenging this longstanding approach is just the first step. In this episode, host Rachel (Rae) Woods welcomes Advisory Board experts Nick Hula and Lauren Woodrow to explore why the ambulatory network of the future demands getting better before getting bigger. Smart growth isn't just about expansion—it's about focusing on operational efficiency, breaking clinicians' attachment to specific sites, and leveraging partnerships to unlock the full potential of ambulatory care. We're here to help: Ep. 238: Is your ambulatory strategy stuck in 2015? It's time for systems to change how they prioritize and design their ambulatory strategy [Webinar] How to build the ambulatory network of the future Q&A: How Optum Financial is modernizing healthcare payment delivery [Webinar] Care variation reduction: A $100B savings opportunity A transcript of this episode as well as more information and resources can be found on RadioAdvisory.advisory.com.
In this episode of the ASIAL Security Insider podcast, we are joined by Lee Odess, CEO of The Access Control Collective and founder of the Access Control Executive Brief, a widely read analysis hub for the physical access and smart lock space. Lee sits on the board of the Security Industry Association in the US and is known for transforming global research into practical playbooks for owners, integrators, and vendors. He recently delivered a talk titled “What's Eating the Security Industry: How to Thrive in Today's Global Evolution,” arguing that while the traditional ~$10B high-security niche is changing fast, a much larger ~$100B mainstream market is taking shape. We'll unpack what's driving that shift, the timeline, and how leaders can position their teams to win.

News and Updates: Apple iOS 26 delivers one of the biggest iPhone upgrades in years. The new Liquid Glass interface adds a translucent, holographic look, while Spatial Scenes uses AI to turn photos into dynamic 3D wallpapers. Major app redesigns include a cleaner Camera for one-handed use, a simplified Photos layout, customizable Messages with polls and chat backgrounds, and an upgraded Lock Screen. New Battery Settings now estimate charging times and debut Adaptive Power Mode (on iPhone 15 Pro+). But the flashy Liquid Glass design has drawn complaints of eye strain, dizziness, and legibility issues, with Apple offering accessibility tweaks as workarounds. Intel + Nvidia struck a $5B partnership that could reshape PCs. Nvidia bought a 4–5% stake in Intel, and the two are co-developing hybrid CPUs with Nvidia GPU chiplets connected via NVLink. These SoCs could boost AI PCs, power slimmer gaming laptops, and bring workstation-level performance to mini desktops — potentially blurring the line between integrated and discrete graphics. Nvidia + OpenAI announced a massive $100B investment deal. Nvidia will fund the buildout of 10 gigawatts of AI data centers using its upcoming Vera Rubin chips, more than doubling today's top AI hardware. The arrangement lets Nvidia recycle investment into chip sales while giving OpenAI infrastructure to push toward “superintelligence.” The deal lifted Nvidia's market cap to nearly $4.5T, the largest in the world. SpaceX Starlink filed to launch up to 15,000 new satellites to supercharge its direct-to-cell service. The move follows a $17B spectrum deal with EchoStar and will boost capacity 20-fold, enabling LTE-like performance for calls and messaging in dead zones. T-Mobile remains the US launch partner, but CEO Elon Musk hinted SpaceX could eventually sell mobile service directly, competing with carriers. Microsoft is injecting Copilot into all Microsoft 365 accounts, unless you manually use the Customization feature to stop the auto install.

I joked on stream that I should just count how many times “Alibaba” appears in our show notes. It's a lot.Qwen3-VL Announcement (Qwen3-VL-235B-A22B-Thinking): (X, HF, Blog, Demo)Qwen 3 launched earlier as a text-only family; the vision-enabled variant just arrived, and it's not timid. The “thinking” version is effectively a reasoner with eyes, built on a 235B-parameter backbone with around 22B active (their mixture-of-experts trick). What jumped out is the breadth of evaluation coverage: MMU, video understanding (Video-MME, LVBench), 2D/3D grounding, doc VQA, chart/table reasoning—pages of it. They're showing wins against models like Gemini 2.5 Pro and GPT‑5 on some of those reports, and doc VQA is flirting with “nearly solved” territory in their numbers.Two caveats. First, whenever scores get that high on imperfect benchmarks, you should expect healthy skepticism; known label issues can inflate numbers. Second, the model is big. Incredible for server-side grounding and long-form reasoning with vision (they're talking about scaling context to 1M tokens for two-hour video and long PDFs), but not something you throw on a phone.Still, if your workload smells like “reasoning + grounding + long context,” Qwen 3 VL looks like one of the strongest open-weight choices right now.Qwen3-Omni-30B-A3B: end-to-end SOTA omni-modal AI unifying text, image, audio, and video (HF, GitHub, Qwen Chat, Demo, API)Omni is their end-to-end multimodal chat model that unites text, image, and audio—and crucially, it streams audio responses in real time while thinking separately in the background. Architecturally, it's a 30B MoE with around 3B active parameters at inference, which is the secret to why it feels snappy on consumer GPUs.In practice, that means you can talk to Omni, have it see what you see, and get sub-250 ms replies in nine speaker languages while it quietly plans. It claims to understand 119 languages. When I pushed it in multilingual conversational settings it still code-switched unexpectedly (Chinese suddenly appeared mid-flow), and it occasionally suffered the classic “stuck in thought” behavior we've been seeing in agentic voice modes across labs. But the responsiveness is real, and the footprint is exciting for local speech streaming scenarios. I wouldn't replace a top-tier text reasoner with this for hard problems, yet being able to keep speech native is a real UX upgrade.Qwen Image Edit, Qwen TTS Flash, and Qwen‑GuardQwen's image stack got a handy upgrade with multi-image reference editing for more consistent edits across shots—useful for brand assets and style-tight workflows. TTS Flash (API-only for now) is their fast speech synth line, and Q‑Guard is a new safety/moderation model from the same team. It's notable because Qwen hasn't really played in the moderation-model space before; historically Meta's Llama Guard led that conversation.DeepSeek V3.1 Terminus: a surgical bugfix that matters for agents (X, HF)DeepSeek whale resurfaced to push a small 0.1 update to V3.1 that reads like a “quality and stability” release—but those matter if you're building on top. It fixes a code-switching bug (the “sudden Chinese” syndrome you'll also see in some Qwen variants), improves tool-use and browser execution, and—importantly—makes agentic flows less likely to overthink and stall. On the numbers, Humanities Last Exam jumped from 15 to 21.7, while LiveCodeBench dipped slightly. That's the story here: they traded a few raw points on coding for more stable, less dithery behavior in end-to-end tasks. If you've invested in their tool harness, this may be a net win.Liquid Nanos: small models that extract like they're big (X, HF)Liquid Foundation Models released “Liquid Nanos,” a set of open models from roughly 350M to 2.6B parameters, including “extract” variants that pull structure (JSON/XML/YAML) from messy documents. The pitch is cost-efficiency with surprisingly competitive performance on information extraction tasks versus models 10× their size. If you're doing at-scale doc ingestion on CPUs or small GPUs, these look worth a try.Tiny IBM OCR model that blew up the charts (HF)We also saw a tiny IBM model (about 250M parameters) for image-to-text document parsing trending on Hugging Face. Run in 8-bit, it squeezes into roughly 250 MB, which means Raspberry Pi and “toaster” deployments suddenly get decent OCR/transcription against scanned docs. It's the kind of tiny-but-useful release that tends to quietly power entire products.Meta's 32B Code World Model (CWM) released for agentic code reasoning (X, HF)Nisten got really excited about this one, and once he explained it, I understood why. Meta released a 32B code world model that doesn't just generate code - it understands code the way a compiler does. It's thinking about state, types, and the actual execution context of your entire codebase.This isn't just another coding model - it's a fundamentally different approach that could change how all future coding models are built. Instead of treating code as fancy text completion, it's actually modeling the program from the ground up. If this works out, expect everyone to copy this approach.Quick note, this one was released with a research license only! Evals & Benchmarks: agents, deception, and code at scaleA big theme this week was “move beyond single-turn Q&A and test how these things behave in the wild.” with a bunch of new evals released. I wanted to cover them all in a separate segment. OpenAI's GDP Eval: “economically valuable tasks” as a bar (X, Blog)OpenAI introduced GDP Eval to measure model performance against real-world, economically valuable work. The design is closer to how I think about “AGI as useful work”: 44 occupations across nine sectors, with tasks judged against what an industry professional would produce.Two details stood out. First, OpenAI's own models didn't top the chart in their published screenshot—Anthropic's Claude Opus 4.1 led with roughly a 47.6% win rate against human professionals, while GPT‑5-high clocked in around 38%. Releasing a benchmark where you're not on top earns respect. Second, the tasks are legit. One example was a manufacturing engineer flow where the output required an overall design with an exploded view of components—the kind of deliverable a human would actually make.What I like here isn't the precise percent; it's the direction. If we anchor progress to tasks an economy cares about, we move past “trivia with citations” and toward “did this thing actually help do the work?”GAIA 2 (Meta Super Intelligence Labs + Hugging Face): agents that execute (X, HF)MSL and HF refreshed GAIA, the agent benchmark, with a thousand new human-authored scenarios that test execution, search, ambiguity handling, temporal reasoning, and adaptability—plus a smartphone-like execution environment. GPT‑5-high led across execution and search; Kimi's K2 was tops among open-weight entries. I like that GAIA 2 bakes in time and budget constraints and forces agents to chain steps, not just spew plans. We need more of these.Scale AI's “SWE-Bench Pro” for coding in the large (HF)Scale dropped a stronger coding benchmark focused on multi-file edits, 100+ line changes, and large dependency graphs. On the public set, GPT‑5 (not Codex) and Claude Opus 4.1 took the top two slots; on a commercial set, Opus edged ahead. The broader takeaway: the action has clearly moved to test-time compute, persistent memory, and program-synthesis outer loops to get through larger codebases with fewer invalid edits. This aligns with what we're seeing across ARC‑AGI and SWE‑bench Verified.The “Among Us” deception test (X)One more that's fun but not frivolous: a group benchmarked models on the social deception game Among Us. OpenAI's latest systems reportedly did the best job both lying convincingly and detecting others' lies. This line of work matters because social inference and adversarial reasoning show up in real agent deployments—security, procurement, negotiations, even internal assistant safety.Big Companies, Bigger Bets!Nvidia's $100B pledge to OpenAI for 10GW of computeLet's say that number again: one hundred billion dollars. Nvidia announced plans to invest up to $100B into OpenAI's infrastructure build-out, targeting roughly 10 gigawatts of compute and power. Jensen called it the biggest infrastructure project in history. Pair that with OpenAI's Stargate-related announcements—five new datacenters with Oracle and SoftBank and a flagship site in Abilene, Texas—and you get to wild territory fast.Internal notes circulating say OpenAI started the year around 230MW and could exit 2025 north of 2GW operational, while aiming at 20GW in the near term and a staggering 250GW by 2033. Even if those numbers shift, the directional picture is clear: the GPU supply and power curves are going vertical.Two reactions. First, yes, the “infinite money loop” memes wrote themselves—OpenAI spends on Nvidia GPUs, Nvidia invests in OpenAI, the market adds another $100B to Nvidia's cap for good measure. But second, the underlying demand is real. If we need 1–8 GPUs per “full-time agent” and there are 3+ billion working adults, we are orders of magnitude away from compute saturation. The power story is the real constraint—and that's now being tackled in parallel.OpenAI: ChatGPT Pulse: Proactive AI news cards for your day (X, OpenAI Blog)In a #BreakingNews segment, we got an update from OpenAI, that currently works only for Pro users but will come to everyone soon. Proactive AI, that learns from your chats, email and calendar and will show you a new “feed” of interesting things every morning based on your likes and feedback! Pulse marks OpenAI's first step toward an AI assistant that brings the right info before you ask, tuning itself with every thumbs-up, topic request, or app connection. I've tuned mine for today, we'll see what tomorrow brings! P.S - Huxe is a free app from the creators of NotebookLM (Ryza was on our podcast!) that does a similar thing, so if you don't have pro, check out Huxe, they just launched! XAI Grok 4 fast - 2M context, 40% fewer thinking tokens, shockingly cheap (X, Blog)xAI launched Grok‑4 Fast, and the name fits. Think “top-left” on the speed-to-cost chart: up to 2 million tokens of context, a reported 40% reduction in reasoning token usage, and a price tag that's roughly 1% of some frontier models on common workloads. On LiveCodeBench, Grok‑4 Fast even beat Grok‑4 itself. It's not the most capable brain on earth, but as a high-throughput assistant that can fan out web searches and stitch answers in something close to real time, it's compelling.Alibaba Qwen-Max and plans for scaling (X, Blog, API)Back in the Alibaba camp, they also released their flagship API model, Qwen 3 Max, and showed off their future roadmap. Qwen-max is over 1T parameters, MoE that gets 69.6 on Swe-bench verified and outperforms GPT-5 on LMArena! And their plan is simple: scale. They're planning to go from 1 million to 100 million token context windows and scale their models into the terabytes of parameters. It culminated in a hilarious moment on the show where we all put on sunglasses to salute a slide from their presentation that literally said, “Scaling is all you need.” AGI is coming, and it looks like Alibaba is one of the labs determined to scale their way there. Their release schedule lately (as documented by Swyx from Latent.space) is insane.

Register HEREVision & Video: Wan 2.2 Animate, Kling 2.5, and Wan 4.5 previewThis is the most exciting space in AI week-to-week for me right now. The progress is visible. Literally.Moondream-3 Preview - Interview with co-founders Via & JayWhile I've already reported on Moondream-3 in the last weeks newsletter, this week we got the pleasure of hosting Vik Korrapati and Jay Allen the co-founders of MoonDream to tell us all about it. Tune in for that conversation on the pod starting at 00:33:00Wan open sourced Wan 2.2 Animate (aka “Wan Animate”): motion transfer and lip sync Tongyi's Wan team shipped an open-source release that the community quickly dubbed “Wanimate.” It's a character-swap/motion transfer system: provide a single image for a character and a reference video (your own motion), and it maps your movement onto the character with surprisingly strong hair/cloth dynamics and lip sync. If you've used runway's Act One, you'll recognize the vibe—except this is open, and the fidelity is rising fast.The practical uses are broader than “make me a deepfake.” Think onboarding presenters with perfect backgrounds, branded avatars that reliably say what you need, or precise action blocking without guessing at how an AI will move your subject. You act it; it follows.Kling 2.5 Turbo: cinematic motion, cheaper and with audioKling quietly rolled out a 2.5 Turbo tier that's 30% cheaper and finally brings audio into the loop for more complete clips. Prompts adhere better, physics look more coherent (acrobatics stop breaking bones across frames), and the cinematic look has moved from “YouTube short” to “film-school final.” They seeded access to creators and re-shared the strongest results; the consistency is the headline. (Source X: @StevieMac03)I've chatted with my kiddos today over facetime, and they were building minecraft creepers. I took a screenshot, sent to Nano Banana to make their creepers into actual minecraft ones, and then with Kling, Animated the explosions for them. They LOVED it! Animations were clear, while VEO refused for me to even upload their images, Kling didn't care hahaWan 4.5 preview: native multimodality, 1080p 10s, and lip-synced speechWan also teased a 4.5 preview that unifies understanding and generation across text, image, video, and audio. The eye-catching bit: generate a 1080p, 10-second clip with synced speech from just a script. Or supply your own audio and have it lip-sync the shot. I ran my usual “interview a polar bear dressed like me” test and got one of the better results I've seen from any model. We're not at “dialogue scene” quality, but “talking character shot” is getting… good. The generation of audio (not only text + lipsync) is one of the best ones besides VEO, it's really great to see how strongly this improves, sad that this wasn't open sourced! And apparently it supports “draw text to animate” (Source: X) Voice & AudioSuno V5: we've entered the “I can't tell anymore” eraSuno calls V5 a redefinition of audio quality. I'll be honest, I'm at the edge of my subjective hearing on this. I've caught myself listening to Suno streams instead of Spotify and forgetting anything is synthetic. The vocals feel more human, the mixes cleaner, and the remastering path (including upgrading V4 tracks) is useful. The last 10% to “you fooled a producer” is going to be long, but the distance between V4 and V5 already makes me feel like I should re-cut our ThursdAI opener.MiMI Audio: a small omni-chat demo that hints at the floorWe tried a MiMI Audio demo live—a 7B-ish model with speech in/out. It was responsive but stumbled on singing and natural prosody. I'm leaving it in here because it's a good reminder that the open floor for “real-time voice” is rising quickly even for small models. And the moment you pipe a stronger text brain behind a capable, native speech front-end, the UX leap is immediate.Ok, another DENSE week that finishes up Shiptember, tons of open source, Qwen (Tongyi) shines, and video is getting so so good. This is all converging folks, and honestly, I'm just happy to be along for the ride! This week was also Rosh Hashanah, which is the Jewish new year, and I've shared on the pod that I've found my X post from 3 years ago, using the state of the art AI models of the time. WHAT A DIFFERENCE 3 years make, just take a look, I had to scale down the 4K one from this year just to fit into the pic! Shana Tova to everyone who's reading this, and we'll see you next week

NVIDIA is doubling down on AI dominance with massive investments across cloud, chips, and infrastructure. It struck a $6.3B deal with CoreWeave to secure long-term GPU demand, is investing $5B in Intel to co-develop custom CPUs and PC chips that pair Intel processors with NVIDIA GPUs, and is committing up to $100B with OpenAI to build data centers requiring 10 gigawatts of power. These moves lock in demand, expand NVIDIA's role across computing ecosystems, and cement its leadership in the race to scale global AI infrastructure.

Health systems know they need to pull out all the stops when it comes to improving operational efficiency, given their financial climate. That doesn't necessarily mean they need entirely new strategies — but they do need to make the most of the tried-and-true tactics. Care variation reduction (CVR) has been part of the operational excellence playbook for years. The opportunity for efficiency and cost savings through CVR is massive—about $100B nationally — but the vast majority of health systems have not been able to unlock its full potential. This week, host Abby Burns invites Advisory Board provider operations expert Isis Monteiro to break down what's getting in the way of realizing that $100B, and how leaders can start to move the needle. We're here to help: Ep. 239: UNC Health: The care variation reduction story you need to hear Care Variation Reduction Assessment Identify your biggest opportunities for care variation reduction 6 strategies to improve your operating margins and financial resilience [Webinar] Care variation reduction: A $100B savings opportunity Learn from the 100+ health system finance leaders who participated in Advisory Board's capital spending survey — and find out how health systems are making capital decisions today.

Americans are increasingly anxious about artificial intelligence (AI), with a recent Pew Research Center study revealing that 50% of participants express more concern than excitement regarding AI's growing presence in daily life. This marks a significant rise from 37% in 2021. The study highlights skepticism about AI's impact on creativity and interpersonal relationships, with many believing it could worsen creative thinking and negatively affect human connections. This growing anxiety underscores the need for better understanding and control over AI applications in society.In the workplace, AI is reshaping learning and development, with organizations in the US, UK, Australia, and New Zealand increasing their budgets for these initiatives. A report from LearnUpon indicates that 43% of learning leaders fear AI could fully replace their roles, while 40% anticipate partial changes due to AI disruption. Despite the investment in learning and development, there is a palpable tension as employees question whether AI will ultimately assist or displace them, raising concerns about trust and stability in the workplace.Meanwhile, NVIDIA's recent $100 billion investment in OpenAI has sparked discussions about the stability of the AI market. This investment is part of a larger trend where major tech firms are projected to invest over $325 billion in AI data centers globally. However, the cycle of capital and chips raises questions about real demand versus artificial demand, as the investment appears to be a circular loop that could lead to instability if market conditions change. Providers are advised to focus on building value through governance and integration rather than relying solely on AI infrastructure costs.A wave of new vendor launches, including Acronis, Hexnode, and CloudRadial, highlights a trend towards automation and consolidation in the industry. These companies are introducing solutions that integrate security, backup, and management functions to simplify operations for managed service providers (MSPs). As MSPs begin to take on vendor roles themselves, the emphasis is on creating efficiencies and better governance to enhance client relationships. The overarching theme is that while technology evolves, the real differentiation for providers will come from how they implement and govern these tools to deliver meaningful business outcomes.

Nvidia (NVDA) is making a 12-digit investment into OpenAI. The market leader will use $100 billion to help OpenAI build at least 10 gigawatts worth of data centers for the ChatGPT parent company with deployments starting next year. Marley Kayden notes that the massive investment shows confidence in the A.I. story but adds it will take a long time for the data center buildout to shape up. Volatility against the A.I. narrative can create speed bumps on the road to those deployments.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

If you're a small business (or investing in one), the play isn't to storm the wall — it's to navigate the $100B+ opportunity zone where competition is lower, vehicles are direct, and outcomes are repeatable. This briefing shows: which offices to target, which NAICS to favor, why GSA MAS barely matters at DOE, how to leverage subcontracting pathways into the Big Five, and how the GAO's $1.1B compliance finding creates a verification edge for disciplined firms.Who this is forFounders and BD leaders selling to DOE/NNSAPE/VC investors & boards pressure-testing pipeline quality, CAC to CLV, and competitive moats in federal marketsCorporate strategy teams evaluating inorganic roll-ups in R&D, engineering, and EM servicesWhat you'll learn:DOE's “two-economy” reality: no-entry M&O vs. accessible direct-award ecosystemOffice-level and NAICS-level tactics to avoid high-bidder bloodbathsHow to use subcontracting to wedge into the nuclear complex supply chainWhy the GAO small-business audit (~$1.1B) signals tighter verification — and how to capitalize on itTimestamps (SEO-optimized for YouTube + AI search)00:00 DOE $186B overview00:20 Federalytics report00:40 NNSA M&O no-entry01:00 The Big Five labs01:20 $107B opportunity zone01:40 Target offices to win02:00 Competition math (offers)02:20 Vehicles that work at DOE02:40 NAICS picks to target03:00 Rule of 5 filter03:20 Subcontracting paths03:40 GAO $1.1B compliance04:00 GovClose playbook04:20 Next steps + dataLinks• Full DOE Intelligence Report (Federalytics): federalytics.substack.com• Learn to sell to government & build multiple revenue streams (GovClose): govclose.comConnect with Rick on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/govclose/Notes & context“Offers per award” is a proxy for competition.

OpenAI has announced a major restructuring plan that involves transferring an equity stake valued at over $100 billion to the non-profit organization overseeing it. This move is part of a broader strategy to transition OpenAI from a non-profit to a public benefit corporation, alongside a tentative agreement to resolve financial issues with Microsoft, which has invested over $13 billion in OpenAI since 2019. The revised agreement includes a clause that limits Microsoft's access to OpenAI's most advanced technologies if they achieve artificial general intelligence. This transition is under scrutiny from regulators and raises concerns about OpenAI's commitment to its foundational mission of ensuring that artificial intelligence benefits humanity.The financial implications of OpenAI's restructuring are significant, particularly with an estimated computing cost problem of $350 billion. This staggering figure not only highlights the challenges OpenAI faces but also sets a concerning precedent for other tech companies relying on cloud computing resources. If OpenAI struggles with these costs, it could lead to higher API pricing, throttled access, or abrupt contract changes that would affect managed service providers (MSPs) and their clients. The podcast emphasizes the importance of diversifying partnerships and negotiating flexibility in contracts to mitigate potential volatility in the AI landscape.In other industry news, N-able has launched CATMIP, an initiative aimed at standardizing AI terminology in cybersecurity and IT management. This effort seeks to address the inconsistencies in terminology across different tech vendors, which can lead to errors and ambiguities in AI command interpretation. Meanwhile, Kaseya has reshaped its leadership with a community-first message, appointing new executives to enhance its AI-first platform, Kaseya 365. These changes reflect a shift towards a more community-centric approach for managed service providers, although the podcast cautions that new titles alone won't resolve existing integration challenges.Adobe and Coro are also making strides in integrating AI into their offerings. Adobe has introduced AI agents in its Experience Cloud, with over 70% of customers already adopting the new tools designed to enhance customer experience processes. Coro has released a new version of its cybersecurity platform tailored for small and mid-sized businesses, leveraging AI to simplify security processes. The podcast concludes with a discussion on the decline of the open web, the normalization of AI as a technology, and the importance of aligning AI adoption with business goals rather than treating it as a standalone strategy.
