Dean Bell breaks down insights from KPMG's mid-year M&A survey. In May, 74% of surveyed dealmakers expect 2025 to be more active than 2024, with the majority in the second half of the year. Lower rates and certainty around tariffs would help the industry. He's “most bullish” on technology & telecom and says everyone is trying to buy tech. “90% of our respondents said they're using AI,” he adds. Dean expects to see “bigger deals” this year.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – / schwabnetwork Follow us on Facebook – / schwabnetwork Follow us on LinkedIn - / schwab-network About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

NLW explores a groundbreaking Stanford study of 15,000+ workers across 100+ occupations that reveals what employees actually want from AI. While 69% welcome AI automation, it's only for specific tasks—just 2% support full automation. Nearly half want AI to reduce repetitive work, but 41% of startups are building in the “red zone,” where workers reject AI tools. The study maps four zones of AI adoption: Green Light (high feasibility + worker demand), Red Light (feasible but unwanted), R&D Opportunity (wanted but not yet feasible), and Low Priority (neither feasible nor desired). Most importantly, 45% fear AI inaccuracy more than job loss, showing workers seek partnership—not replacement.Brought to you by:KPMG – Go to https://kpmg.com/ai to learn more about how KPMG can help you drive value with our AI solutions.Blitzy.com - Go to https://blitzy.com/ to build enterprise software in days, not months AGNTCY - The AGNTCY is an open-source collective dedicated to building the Internet of Agents, enabling AI agents to communicate and collaborate seamlessly across frameworks.

Are AI coding tools actually making developers less productive? A new study from Meta's AI research nonprofit, METR, claims that developers using AI were 19% slower, even though they believed they were 20% faster. In this episode of the AI Daily Brief, we break down the study's design, explore criticisms from Emmett Shear and other AI leaders, and explain why this experiment may not reflect real-world AI coding performance. From model limitations to the steep learning curve of tools like Cursor, we explore how AI-assisted development isn't just about faster typing, but rather a new way of working that requires time, practice, and workflow adjustments.

Going public is a transformational step for companies—not just financially, but strategically. It unlocks access to capital, attracts new investors, and accelerates growth. But it takes more than excitement; companies need strong financials, regulatory readiness, and a compelling narrative. In June, KPMG hosted an IPO Bootcamp at the NYSE to help executives prepare for this journey. Shari Mager, KPMG's U.S. Capital Markets Readiness Leader, goes Inside the ICE House to share key insights on navigating the IPO process.
Plus, get 20 key takeaways, including life after layoffs.Accounting InfluencersWith Rob BrownAs technology transforms the accounting profession, jobs are being redefined—or eliminated altogether. In this episode of Accounting Influencers, host Rob Brown unpacks the wave of layoffs sweeping through the Big Four and leading software providers and what it means for the future of accounting careers. MORE Accounting Influencers with Rob Brown Layoffs at PwC, EY, Deloitte, KPMG, and Intuit are a wake-up call. These aren't just belt-tightening moves—they're signs of a larger shift driven by AI and automation. PwC cut 1,500 jobs in May, EY let go of over 1,400 employees, and Deloitte laid off "an unspecified number." Meanwhile, Intuit laid off 1,800 employees to invest more heavily in AI.As Brown puts it: “This isn't just about cutting costs. These firms are pivoting to hire people who can drive tech-enabled growth.” The message is clear: jobs are disappearing, but new ones are emerging—for those with the right skills.

Google just pulled off a $2.4 billion acquihire of AI coding startup Windsurf—but the way it happened is shaking up the startup world.

AI browsers could be the next transformative trend in how we interact with the internet. This week, Perplexity launched its new agentic browser, Comet; OpenAI is reportedly preparing its own AI browser; and Arc Browser continues beta testing its inline browsing tool, Dia. Unlike traditional browsers with basic AI add-ons, these tools integrate AI agents directly into web workflows, handling everything from booking meetings to automating emails. In this episode, we explore why AI browsers could quickly shift us from web browsing to task automation, and discuss whether this marks the next big competitive frontier in tech.Get Ad Free AI Daily Brief: https://patreon.com/AIDailyBriefBrought to you by:KPMG – Go to https://kpmg.com/ai to learn more about how KPMG can help you drive value with our AI solutions.Blitzy.com - Go to https://blitzy.com/ to build enterprise software in days, not months AGNTCY - The AGNTCY is an open-source collective dedicated to building the Internet of Agents, enabling AI agents to communicate and collaborate seamlessly across frameworks.

School is out for summer but this year some educators are wondering how much their students really learned. A KPMG survey found that over half of Canadians over 18 years-old now use generative AI to complete their school work. Professors and students are concerned that growing reliance on tools like ChatGPT and Gemini could be weakening critical thinking skills. And now, recent research is giving us further insight into that potential connection.The Globe's Joe Castaldo reports on AI and tech. He'll tell us what teachers and students say about how generative AI is impacting education and what recent studies tell us about its affect on our collective critical thinking skills. Questions?
