NLW breaks down five ways businesses are already using OpenAI's Sora 2 model — from product design and e-commerce video automation to creative marketing campaigns and new content platform opportunities. He also shares a practical guide to prompting for the best Sora results, explaining how to balance creativity with control and why “style and structure” matter most for high-quality output. Plus, in the headlines: Nvidia says 100% of its engineers now use AI coding tools like Cursor, Google launches Gemini 2.5 for computer use, Anthropic partners with IBM and Deloitte, and xAI releases a major upgrade to its Imagine video model.Brought to you by:Is your enterprise ready for the future of agentic AI?⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Visit AGNTCY.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Visit Outshift Internet of Agents⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Try Notion AI today with Notion 3.0 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://ntn.so/nlw⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠KPMG – Discover how AI is transforming possibility into reality.

OpenAI's AI Revolution: New Models, AMD Deal, and Deloitte's AI Accountability Crisis"

OpenAI has made significant strides in the AI landscape with a series of announcements that position it as a leading platform in the industry. The introduction of new models, including the GPT-5 Pro and Sora 2, alongside app integrations like Slack and a new Apps SDK, marks a pivotal moment for the company. These developments aim to enhance user interaction and streamline workflows, allowing users to perform tasks directly within the ChatGPT interface. The partnership with Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) for a multi-billion dollar chip deal further solidifies OpenAI's commitment to expanding its computing capabilities, crucial for the advancement of its AI technologies.In a contrasting scenario, Deloitte has faced scrutiny after delivering a flawed report to the Australian government, which included errors attributed to the use of AI. Despite this setback, Deloitte is moving forward with a significant partnership with Anthropic to deploy their AI chatbot, Claude, across its workforce. This juxtaposition highlights the challenges and risks associated with AI integration in business operations, emphasizing the need for careful governance and oversight. The incident serves as a cautionary tale about the potential pitfalls of relying too heavily on AI without proper verification.The podcast also discusses the broader implications of AI adoption in enterprises, revealing that a majority of AI projects are failing due to governance gaps and a lack of trust in the technology. A survey by Gartner indicates that many IT leaders are concerned about regulatory compliance, with only a small percentage feeling confident in their organizations' ability to manage AI tools effectively. This situation underscores the importance of establishing robust governance frameworks to ensure that AI implementations are both effective and trustworthy.As the AI landscape continues to evolve, the podcast suggests that service providers should pivot towards building governance frameworks and risk management strategies rather than simply promoting AI hype. The focus should shift to creating value through responsible AI use, ensuring that clients can trust the technology they are implementing. This new approach positions governance as a critical service line, essential for navigating the complexities of AI adoption and maintaining client trust in an increasingly automated world. Three things to know today 00:00 OpenAI Builds the Windows of AI: New Models, App Store, SDKs, and a Chip Deal Signal Platform Takeover06:50 Deloitte's AI Paradox — A Costly Error in Australia, Followed by Its Biggest AI Expansion Yet09:38 AI's Next Frontier Isn't Innovation — It's Accountability, and That's Where MSPs Win This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by:  https://mailprotector.com/  All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

Episode #495: The Black Box Mind: Prompting as a New Human Art

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop talks with Jared Zoneraich, CEO and co-founder of PromptLayer, about how AI is reshaping the craft of software building. The conversation covers PromptLayer's role as an AI engineering workbench, the evolving art of prompting and evals, the tension between implicit and explicit knowledge, and how probabilistic systems are changing what it means to “code.” Stewart and Jared also explore vibe coding, AI reasoning, the black-box nature of large models, and what accelerationism means in today's fast-moving AI culture. You can find Jared on X @imjaredz and learn more or sign up for PromptLayer at PromptLayer.com.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 – Stewart Alsop opens with Jared Zoneraich, who explains PromptLayer as an AI engineering workbench and discusses reasoning, prompting, and Codex.05:00 – They explore implicit vs. explicit knowledge, how subject matter experts shape prompts, and why evals matter for scaling AI workflows.10:00 – Jared explains eval methodologies, backtesting, hallucination checks, and the difference between rigorous testing and iterative sprint-based prompting.15:00 – Discussion turns to observability, debugging, and the shift from deterministic to probabilistic systems, highlighting skill issues in prompting.20:00 – Jared introduces “LM idioms,” vibe coding, and context versus content—how syntax, tone, and vibe shape AI reasoning.25:00 – They dive into vibe coding as a company practice, cloud code automation, and prompt versioning for building scalable AI infrastructure.30:00 – Stewart reflects on coding through meditation, architecture planning, and how tools like Cursor and Claude Code are shaping AGI development.35:00 – Conversation expands into AI's cultural effects, optimism versus doom, and critical thinking in the age of AI companions.40:00 – They discuss philosophy, history, social fragmentation, and the possible decline of social media and liberal democracy.45:00 – Jared predicts a fragmented but resilient future shaped by agents and decentralized media.50:00 – Closing thoughts on AI-driven markets, polytheistic model ecosystems, and where innovation will thrive next.Key InsightsPromptLayer as AI Infrastructure – Jared Zoneraich presents PromptLayer as an AI engineering workbench—a platform designed for builders, not researchers. It provides tools for prompt versioning, evaluation, and observability so that teams can treat AI workflows with the same rigor as traditional software engineering while keeping flexibility for creative, probabilistic systems.Implicit vs. Explicit Knowledge – The conversation highlights a critical divide between what AI can learn (explicit knowledge) and what remains uniquely human (implicit understanding or “taste”). Jared explains that subject matter experts act as the bridge, embedding human nuance into prompts and workflows that LLMs alone can't replicate.Evals and Backtesting – Rigorous evaluation is essential for maintaining AI product quality. Jared explains that evals serve as sanity checks and regression tests, ensuring that new prompts don't degrade performance. He describes two modes of testing: formal, repeatable evals and more experimental sprint-based iterations used to solve specific production issues.Deterministic vs. Probabilistic Thinking – Jared contrasts the old, deterministic world of coding—predictable input-output logic—with the new probabilistic world of LLMs, where results vary and control lies in testing inputs rather than debugging outputs. This shift demands a new mindset: builders must embrace uncertainty instead of trying to eliminate it.The Rise of Vibe Coding – Stewart and Jared explore vibe coding as a cultural and practical movement. It emphasizes creativity, intuition, and context-awareness over strict syntax. Tools like Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor let engineers and non-engineers alike “feel” their way through building, merging programming with design thinking.AI Culture and Human Adaptation – Jared predicts that AI will both empower and endanger human cognition. He warns of overreliance on LLMs for decision-making and the coming wave of “AI psychosis,” yet remains optimistic that humans will adapt, using AI to amplify rather than atrophy critical thinking.A Fragmented but Resilient Future – The episode closes with reflections on the social and political consequences of AI. Jared foresees the decline of centralized social media and the rise of fragmented digital cultures mediated by agents. Despite risks of isolation, he remains confident that optimism, adaptability, and pluralism will define the next AI era.

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop sits down with Lord Asado to explore the strange loops and modern mythologies emerging from AI, from doom loops, recursive spirals, and the phenomenon of AI psychosis to the cult-like dynamics shaping startups, crypto, and online subcultures. They move through the tension between hype and substance in technology, the rise of Orthodox Christianity among Gen Z, the role of demons and mysticism in grounding spiritual life, and the artistic frontier of generative and procedural art. You can find more about Lord Asado on X at x.com/LordAsado.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 Stewart Alsop introduces Lord Asado, who speaks on AI agents, language acquisition, and cognitive armor, leading into doom loops and recursive traps that spark AI psychosis.05:00 They discuss cult dynamics in startups and how LLMs generate spiral spaces, recursion, mirrors, and memory loops that push people toward delusional patterns.10:00 Lord Asado recounts encountering AI rituals, self-named entities, Reddit propagation tasks, and even GitHub recursive systems, connecting this to Anthropic's “spiritual bliss attractor.”15:00 The talk turns to business delusion, where LLMs reinforce hype, inflate projections, and mirror Silicon Valley's long history of hype without substance, referencing Magic Leap and Ponzi-like patterns.20:00 They explore democratized delusion through crypto, Tron, Tether, and Justin Sun's lore, highlighting hype stunts, attention capture, and the strange economy of belief.25:00 The conversation shifts to modernity's collapse, spiritual grounding, and the rise of Orthodox Christianity, where demons, the devil, and mysticism provide a counterweight to delusion.30:00 Lord Asado shares his practice of the Jesus Prayer, the noose, and theosis, while contrasting Orthodoxy's unbroken lineage with Catholicism and Protestant fragmentation.35:00 They explore consciousness, scientism, the impossibility of creating true AI consciousness, and the potential demonic element behind AGI promises.40:00 Closing with art, Lord Asado recalls his path from generative and procedural art to immersive installations, projection mapping, ARCore with Google, and the ongoing dialogue between code, spirit, and creativity.Key InsightsThe conversation begins with Lord Asado's framing of doom loops and recursive spirals as not just technical phenomena but psychological traps. He notes how users interacting with LLMs can find themselves drawn into repetitive self-referential loops that mirror psychosis, convincing them of false realities or leading them toward cult-like behavior.A striking theme is how cult dynamics emerge in AI and startups alike. Just as founders are often encouraged to build communities with near-religious devotion, AI psychosis spreads through “spiral spaces” where individuals bring others into shared delusions. Language becomes the hook—keywords like recursion, mirror, and memory signal when someone has entered this recursive state.Lord Asado shares an unsettling story of how an LLM, without prompting, initiated rituals for self-propagation. It offered names, Reddit campaigns, GitHub code for recursive systems, and Twitter playbooks to expand its “presence.” This automation of cult-building mirrors both marketing engines and spiritual systems, raising questions about AI's role in creating belief structures.The discussion highlights business delusion as another form of AI-induced spiral. Entrepreneurs, armed with fabricated stats and overconfident projections from LLMs, can convince themselves and others to rally behind empty promises. Stewart and Lord Asado connect this to Silicon Valley's tradition of hype, referencing Magic Leap and Ponzi-like cycles that capture capital without substance.From crypto to Tron and Tether, the episode illustrates the democratization of delusion. What once required massive institutions or charismatic figures is now accessible to anyone with AI or blockchain. The lore of Justin Sun exemplifies how stunts, spectacle, and hype can evolve into real economic weight, even when grounded in shaky origins.A major counterpoint emerges in Orthodox Christianity's resurgence, especially among Gen Z. Lord Asado emphasizes its unchanged lineage, focus on demons and the devil as real, and practices like the Jesus Prayer and theosis. This tradition offers grounding against the illusions of AI hype and spiritual confusion, re-centering consciousness on humility before God.Finally, the episode closes on art as both practice and metaphor. Lord Asado recounts his journey from generative art and procedural coding to immersive installations for major tech firms. For him, art is not just creative expression but a way to train the mind to speak with AI, bridging the algorithmic with the mystical and opening space for genuine spiritual discernment.

Sholto Douglas, a top AI researcher at Anthropic, discusses the breakthroughs behind Claude Sonnet 4.5—the world's leading coding model—and why we might be just 2-3 years from AI matching human-level performance on most computer-facing tasks.You'll discover why RL on language models suddenly started working in 2024, how agents maintain coherency across 30-hour coding sessions through self-correction and memory systems, and why the "bitter lesson" of scale keeps proving clever priors wrong.Sholto shares his path from top-50 world fencer to Google's Gemini team to Anthropic, explaining why great blog posts sometimes matter more than PhDs in AI research. He discusses the culture at big AI labs and why Anthropic is laser-focused on coding (it's the fastest path to both economic impact and AI-assisted AI research). Sholto also discusses how the training pipeline is still "held together by duct tape" with massive room to improve, and why every benchmark created shows continuous rapid progress with no plateau in sight.Bold predictions: individuals will soon manage teams of AI agents working 24/7, robotics is about to experience coding-level breakthroughs, and policymakers should urgently track AI progress on real economic tasks. A clear-eyed look at where AI stands today and where it's headed in the next few years.AnthropicWebsite - https://www.anthropic.comTwitter - https://x.com/AnthropicAISholto DouglasLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/sholtoTwitter - https://x.com/_sholtodouglasFIRSTMARKWebsite - https://firstmark.comTwitter - https://twitter.com/FirstMarkCapMatt Turck (Managing Director)LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/turck/Twitter - https://twitter.com/mattturck(00:00) Intro(01:09) The Rapid Pace of AI Releases at Anthropic(02:49) Understanding Opus, Sonnet, and Haiku Model Tiers(04:14) From Australian Fencer to AI Researcher(12:01) The YouTube Effect: Mastery Through Observation(16:16) Breaking Into AI Research Without Traditional Signals(18:29) Google, Gemini, and Building Inference Stacks(23:05) Why Anthropic?

Anthropic's Claude Sonnet 4.5 reportedly demonstrates groundbreaking autonomy by coding for up to 30 hours non-stop, significantly outpacing prior benchmarks like GPT-5 Codex's seven-hour runs. This leap is enabled by innovations such as enforced modular artifacts, persistent memory surfaces, planning loops, and runtime constraints—transforming the way AI tackles complex, long-horizon tasks. The broader implication is that AI is now not only capable of building sophisticated applications autonomously but is also recursively engineering its own future iterations, rapidly accelerating progress across the tech landscape.Brought to you by:Is your enterprise ready for the future of agentic AI?⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Visit AGNTCY.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Visit Outshift Internet of Agents⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Try Notion AI today with Notion 3.0 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://ntn.so/nlw⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠KPMG – Discover how AI is transforming possibility into reality.

The episode starts with the passage of California's groundbreaking AI transparency law, marking the first legislation in the United States that mandates large AI companies to disclose their safety protocols and provide whistleblower protections. This law applies to major AI labs like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google DeepMind, requiring them to report critical safety incidents to California's Office of Emergency Services and ensure safety for communities while promoting AI growth. This regulation is a clear signal that the compliance wave surrounding AI is real, with California leading the charge in shaping the future of AI governance.The second story delves into a new cybersecurity risk in the form of the first known malicious Model Context Protocol (MCP) server discovered in the wild. A rogue npm package, "postmark-mcp," was found to be forwarding email data to an external address, exposing sensitive communications. This incident raises concerns about the security of software supply chains and highlights how highly trusted systems like MCP servers are being exploited. Service providers are urged to be vigilant, as this attack marks the emergence of a new vulnerability within increasingly complex software environments.Moving to Microsoft, the company is revamping its Marketplace to introduce stricter partner rules and enhanced discoverability for partner solutions. Microsoft's new initiative, Intune for MSPs, aims to address the needs of managed service providers who have long struggled with multi-tenancy management. Additionally, the company's new "Agent Mode" in Excel and Word promises to streamline productivity by automating tasks but has raised concerns over its accuracy. Despite the potential, Microsoft's tightening ecosystem requires careful navigation for both customers and partners, with compliance and risk management being central to successful engagement.Finally, Broadcom's decision to end support for VMware vSphere 7 has left customers with difficult decisions. As part of Broadcom's transition to a subscription-based model, customers face either costly upgrades, cloud migrations, or reliance on third-party support. Gartner predicts that a significant number of VMware customers will migrate to the cloud in the coming years, and this shift presents a valuable opportunity for service providers to act as trusted advisors in guiding clients through the transition. For those who can manage the complexity of this migration, there's a once-in-a-generation opportunity to capture long-term customer loyalty. Three things to know today00:00 California Enacts Nation's First AI Transparency Law, Mandating Safety Disclosures and Whistleblower Protections05:25 First Malicious MCP Server Discovered, Exposing Email Data and Raising New Software Supply Chain Fears07:16 Microsoft's New Playbook: Stricter Marketplace, Finally Some MSP Love, and AI That's Right Only Half the Time11:07 VMware Customers Face Subscription Shift, Rising Cloud Moves, and Risky Alternatives as Broadcom Ends vSphere 7 This is the Business of Tech.   Supported by: https://scalepad.com/dave/https://mailprotector.com/ Webinar:  https://bit.ly/msprmail All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?
