What does it really take to launch a big idea? One that can change your career, business, or even the world? Is being a visionary enough, or is there a hidden formula for success? Guest Jen Kem says it's all about building the right "unicorn team." But here's the twist: even if you're a solopreneur or running a small business—like me—this book is still for you.

With a career working on iconic initiatives for companies like Microsoft, Coca-Cola, and Oracle, she's now revealing how big ideas succeed—not just through visionaries, but through the right mix of leaders who execute and get results.We'll learn how to identify your own leadership type, how even a solo effort can become a "team" by leveraging the right resources, and hear the inspiring story of how a small team at Moderna outpaced industry giants to lead the charge on a life-saving vaccine.

Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they weigh in on EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin blasting Gov. Gavin Newsom and Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass for their incompetence concerning the California wildfires, housing officials repeating the mistakes that led to the 2008 financial crisis, and Michigan's “Mamdani” trying to erase his radical record.First, they applaud Zeldin for imploring Newsom and Bass to get to work to help people rebuild after the wildfires. Jim notes that less than one percent of those who lost homes or businesses have received permits to rebuild, even after nearly a year. They also consider how this glaring failure could hurt Newsom's presidential ambitions.Next, they facepalm as Fannie Mae removes a minimum credit score needed to be approved for housing loans. Yes, buying a home is really tough for a lot of people right now, but Jim and Greg recall how giving mortgages to people who clearly could not afford them led to economic disaster just 17 years ago.Finally, they highlight Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abu El-Sayed deleting past anti-police and anti-border agent posts in an attempt to hide his radical views. El-Sayed once called police “standing armies we deploy against our own people” and smeared border agents as “white supremacists.” El-Sayed is very competitive in a three-candidate race for the party's nomination.Please visit our great sponsors:Get 10% off your first month of BetterHelp by visiting https://BetterHelp.com/3ML today!OneSkin uses the patented OS-01 Peptide™ designed to keep skin healthier, stronger, and more resilient over time.

Senate Democrats are ratcheting up pressure on the White House over artificial intelligence data centers and the surging utility costs that have accompanied their nationwide buildout. In a letter sent Monday to Office of Science and Technology Policy Director Michael Kratsios and Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, five senators blasted the Trump administration for the “sweetheart deals” it has made with Big Tech companies on data centers, and its “reckless abandonment” of consumers as their electricity bills soar. The letter, which was led by Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., states: “Since his second inauguration, President Trump has cozied up to Meta, Google, Oracle, OpenAI, and other Big Tech companies, fast-tracking and pushing for the buildout of power-hungry data centers across the country.” According to the letter — which was also signed by Democratic Sens. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland, Ron Wyden of Oregon, Ed Markey of Massachusetts and independent Bernie Sanders of Vermont — national power consumption from data centers could jump from 5% to 12% within three years, and even the White House noted in its AI Action Plan that “technological advancements of AI are increasing pressures on the grid.” At the same time, the second Trump administration has seemingly traded in the all-of-the-above approach to energy sources pursued during the president's first term for a decidedly anti-renewables bent that the senators said has “supercharged this cost-of-living crisis by making it harder to increase and diversify sources of household electricity sources.” The Department of Veterans Affairs' push to modernize decades-old systems faced a technical issue earlier this year, delaying education benefits payments for tens of thousands of students at the start of the school year. A group of veterans' service organizations, including the Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (TAPS), highlighted the issue this week, telling reporters that the technical glitch occurred in August, when the VA began converting benefits claims from its legacy system to a new processing system for Chapter 35 Survivors' and Dependents' Educational Assistance. The VA launched its initiative to modernize the GI Bill process in 2022, and the Digital GI Bill platform was set to be fully operational by April 2024 but faced its own delays last year. A part of the multi-billion-dollar initiative involves overhauling multiple legacy systems, including those related to the education benefits process. Ashlynne Haycock-Lohmann, the director of government and legislative affairs at TAPS, told FedScoop in an interview that the veterans' service community welcomes the changes to decades-old systems, but the timing around the school year could present risks.

In this special live episode of the Shift AI Podcast recorded at Seattle AI Week, Dr. Andre Alfred, who leads threat operations and security for Google Cloud's Fortune 500 customers, joins host Boaz Ashkenazy for an eye-opening conversation about the intersection of AI and cybersecurity. With his remarkable journey from high school help desk operator to earning his PhD and leading security operations at Microsoft, Oracle, and Google, Andre brings a unique perspective on protecting critical infrastructure in an era where adversaries have access to the same powerful AI tools as defenders.From data poisoning threats that could compromise healthcare diagnostics to the challenges of securing physical infrastructure like water systems and power grids, Andre shares what keeps him up at night and why two-factor authentication isn't optional anymore. The conversation explores how AI is transforming both offensive and defensive capabilities in cybersecurity, why the next generation of jobs will be defined by leaders rather than technology, and Andre's commitment to visibility as an African American leader in tech. Through his scholarship program at Western Governors University, Andre is opening pathways for the next generation of cybersecurity and healthcare professionals. If you're wondering about the real security threats we're not thinking about—and why the future of work requires "more focus"—this conversation offers crucial insights from someone defending some of the world's most critical systems.Chapters[00:00] Introduction and Boaz's Journey to the Shift AI Podcast [02:37] Andre's Background and Role at Google Cloud Security [03:44] The Non-Traditional Path: From Help Desk to PhD [06:25] The Decision to Return to College and Transform Your Career [08:41] From Capital One to Microsoft to Google [12:03] What It's Like to Wake Up Every Morning in Threat Operations [14:21] The Bittersweet Reality: When Innovation Can Be Weaponized [15:31] Data Poisoning and Healthcare: The Threat We're Not Thinking About [18:37] Teaching Kids to Question What They See Online [20:06] Physical Infrastructure Vulnerabilities and Social Engineering [24:09] The Future of AI and Cybersecurity in 2030 [26:24] Creating Jobs of the Future Through Education [29:41] The Intersection of Cybersecurity and Healthcare [32:29] Leaders Must Define the Next Jobs, Not Let Technology Define Them [33:36] Being Visible as an African American in Tech [36:11] Two Words for the Future: "More Focus"Connect with Dr. Andre Alfred LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aoalfred/Connect with Boaz Ashkenazy LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/boazashkenazy Email: info@shiftai.fmSpecial thank you to Western Governers University for hosting and sponsoring this live episode at the Labor Temple in Seattle WA during AI Week.

Former Chief Assistant U.S. Attorney and National Review Contributing Editor Andy McCarthy is in for Jim on Tuesday's 3 Martini Lunch. Join Andy and Greg as they discuss the fate of Obamacare subsidies, how to stop Chinese nationals from buying land near U.S. military bases, and the leftist revolt (again) vs. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.First, as Democrats demand the extension of Obamacare premium subsidies, Andy and Greg explain how they were supposedly a "temporary" provision during the pandemic and should be scrapped. But Andy points out that the subsidies were another step in the Dems' tireless push for government-run health care, so rooting them out will be very difficult.Next, they react to reports that a convicted Chinese fraudster owns land adjacent to the Missouri Air Force base that's home to the B-2 Stealth Bombers that that targeted Iranian nuclear sites in June. Andy explains how there is some tension in law when it comes to stopping our top foreign adversary from getting so close to our most sensitive sites, but there's something far more important than the courts or Congress when it comes to stopping the Chinese from doing this.Finally, they shed zero tears for Sen. Chuck Schumer as the increasingly left-wing base revolts over how Senate Democrats handled the latest shutdown fight and Schumer's feeble attempts to appease the base through this pointless shutdown left him even more of a pariah in his own party. And as awful as Schumer has been, it's almost certain the next Senate Democratic leader will be even worse.Please visit our great sponsors:OneSkin uses the patented OS-01 Peptide™ designed to keep skin healthier, stronger, and more resilient over time.

Why estate planning and business succession fail most often has nothing to do with legal documents. It comes down to communication, valuation, and timing. In this episode of Behind The Numbers With Dave Bookbinder, we explore the intersection of estate planning, business succession, and valuation with private client attorney Brian Balduzzi. Brian explains why estate planning is not just for the ultra-wealthy. Every business owner needs core documents in place to protect their family and business: wills, medical and financial powers of attorney, and a plan for what happens to their company. We dig into: How business valuation fits into estate and succession planning When to assemble the right advisor team and who should be at the table The dangers of ignoring valuation for illiquid assets Why failing to communicate plans derails succession efforts How gifting strategies, charitable giving, and legacy intentions shape outcomes Brian also touches on the emotional and human aspects of planning: chosen family considerations, stewardship of wealth, and why planning during life often creates better results than leaving everything to be sorted out later. If you're a business owner, this conversation offers practical steps to start protecting your company and your family today. #EstatePlanning #ProtectYourAssets #FuturePlanning #TaxStrategy #BusinessValuation #FamilyWealth #LifeGoals #LegacyPlanning ----more---- About Our Guest: Brian M.

Ricochet Co-Founder Rob Long is in for Jim today. Join Rob and Greg for the Monday 3 Martini Lunch as they chronicle the Senate Dems finally ending their pointless shutdown, President Trump promising millions of Americans money from tariff revenues, and now the New York Times reports how much Zohran Mamdani's agenda will cost.First, they welcome the news that eight Senate Democrats voted to end debate on a bill to fund the government, clearing the way for its passage. While the progressive left is furious at those who “caved,” Rob notes the shutdown strategy was never going to succeed. He also explains why Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy is spectacularly wrong in arguing that the shutdown was necessary to “save democracy.”Next, they shake their heads as President Trump promising to send $2,000 checks to low and middle income Americans due to increased revenues from tariffs. Rob and Greg explain why this is not a good idea and how very recent history gives us the proof. They also scratch their heads over the emerging idea of 50-year mortgages.Finally, they find the timing suspicious as the New York Times waits until after the election to reveal the massive costs of New York City Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani's proposals for free childcare and bus rides. They also discuss Mamdani's idea of raising more revenue to pay for all this by increasing fines.Please visit our great sponsors:Get 10% off your first month of BetterHelp by visiting https://BetterHelp.com/3ML today!OneSkin uses the patented OS-01 Peptide™ designed to keep skin healthier, stronger, and more resilient over time.

With Mexico and the U.K. being the latest countries to roll out mandatory digital ID's the conspiracy has once again become a reality! Many people who have not heeded the warnings or passed them off as a conspiracy theory are now realizing the warnings were real. Let's look at how we got here, what the future plans are and the end goal of digital ID's. This is just another step in the nightmare to come!Email us at: downtherh@protonmail.com
Sal Gilbertie, chief executive officer at Teucrium Trading — which runs several commodity specific ETFs, like the Teucrium Soybean fund — says that while tariffs are being blamed for high prices for goods like coffee, cocoa, beef and more, it's actually the weather and long droughts in certain key growing areas that have steadily increased prices over several years. Still, Gilberties says tariffs have had an undeniable impact, some of it negative — with trading partners losing trust in the United States — some of it positive, because commodities are still moving around world markets. He says that investors who can stomach the volatility should be leaning into the headlines for opportunities, rather than fearing bad news impacts. David Trainer, president of New Constructs, says that tech giants are using mountains of cash to develop and build opportunities in artificial intelligence, but he notes that such huge spending can't go on forever while waiting for the payoff, and he identifies Amazon, Meta and Oracle as three of the big players who may not have the capital to win what he calls "the A.I. arms race." In the Market Call, Mark Travis, president and chief executive officer at Intrepid Capital Management, talks about how he looks "for businesses that people need" — like beer, shoes and underwear — but at the right price and discounted cash flow to be consistent, long-term gainers.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I call out AWS's slowdown in both innovation and momentum, as the rest of the hyperscalers redefine the future of cloud.Highlights00:15 — Now it's been interesting here as we watch the four hyperscalers recently, Microsoft, AWS, Google Cloud, and Oracle. We hear that cliche about a rising tide lifts all boats. And I would say that AWS is definitely the one of the four hyperscalers that is rising less slowly, less quickly, and to not as great a height.01:08 — AWS is the company that created the cloud infrastructure business, and for most of those 19 years, AWS deserved to be called the King of the Cloud. But a few years ago, Microsoft's cloud, Azure, became, you know, quite prominent. Google Cloud started to innovate wildly. Oracle has been on fire. AWS lost the role, the opportunity, the swagger of being the leader02:16 — It is now the follower. AWS is not the innovator, either in technology or in go-to-market ways, and these financial results prove that they certainly had a very nice Q3. You can't just bring metrics or comparative performance from other industries and apply it to the Cloud Wars. Those numbers that AWS put up were just not anywhere close to as good as those of its competitors.03:36 — So, in either of those cases, AWS is being dramatically outgrown by the other three hyperscalers. There's just no way around it, and in a detailed article that I'll have on cloudwars.com later today, I lay that out both for the quarterly numbers and the latest RPO and backlog figures.04:23 — And in the AI Revolution, these four companies are in large part helping the entire global economy to establish, "How am I going to move forward? What am I going to need to do?" The other three have all stolen the jump on AWS and become much more dynamic, and that's revealed in the customer demand, expressed as quarterly revenue and also going forward as RPO or backlog.05:28 — What we're seeing here is the fact that this, this notion of innovation, of, you know, relentless performance, relentless excellence, relentless progress. It can be brutal at times. And while AWS is a big, successful company, is going to be around for a long time, the numbers are showing it is no longer anywhere close to the leader.

In this episode super close to my heart, I speak to Elyse Welles, the only native Greek Witch and High Priestess teaching the lost earth priestess arts. We get stuck into: The Greek priestess & oracle lineage The connection between the ley lines & the energy of the Earth and the Oracles Sharing our past life memories of Delphi The current situation in Greece and why there's no Greek priestesses teaching currently Greek mythology and how it relates to the earth priestess arts Ancestral lineages and bringing forth the magic of your bloodline as diaspora How dragons and oracles are connected so much more ____ To find out more about Elyse and the work she does head to seekingnumina.com or find her on IG @ seekingnumina ____ If you've resonated with the messages shared in this episode or want to know more about the work that I do, follow me on IG @becmylonas or head to www.becmylonas.com where you can access some potent free activations, masterclasses and healings and check out other podcasts I've co-created with
It begins today. Big ol Mecury begins it's regtrograde in Sagitarius. We will never fear a retrograde. Ever. It's there to assist us to walk the path of our choosing. To clear the static from us and our co-creations. We can prepare. We can remind ourselves of all the ways we ground and support ourselves when these planetary shifts happen. Mercury isn't the only one in retrograde, Uranus, and a. couple more. This month is about unearthing the roots of the energy that holds us back, not to be killed, but to be accepted into the fold. Shadow energy isn't expelled. It's embraced and emobidied. It can be the fertilizer your soil needs to grow from. All our love, G&V xo
Send us a textMarkets have a habit of choosing the path that hurts the most people, and this week they proved it. We open with a jolt: CarMax plunges 24%, the CEO is shown the door, and used‑car demand looks like a classic pull‑forward that left a hole in today's sales. From there, we follow the thread across the macro tapestry: consumer sentiment hovering near crisis lows, layoffs announced at a pace that clashes with payroll prints, and a tech slide that turns “AI capex” from dream to doubt in a heartbeat.I break down how cobweb dynamics and inventory timing errors ripple from toothpaste to autos, why tariffs distorted the clock on purchases, and where the data is more theatre than truth. China's export picture adds another twist: a bilateral surplus that widens even as shipments to the US shrink, exposing the difference between volume and value in a tariff world. We dig into the money plumbing too, because it's no longer just M2. Offshore dollar creation rides on the collateral of investment portfolios, trade invoices, rehypothecated claims that shape and form money in ways the Fed doesn't fully map.For investors, the practical edge is structure and levels. Options now mediate the market's mood, turning volatility into potential income when used with care. Covered calls on quality after big drops can pay you to wait, but path risk matters. We map Meta's gap fill and key Fibonacci retracements, and consider Oracle's round‑trip as a reminder that narratives can outrun cash flows. The stance is clear: acknowledge the pullback, respect the signs of strain, and build selective shopping lists rather than chasing every bounce. Let the market pay you for patience, and let price confirm when the turn is real.If this breakdown helps you navigate the noise, follow the show, share it with a friend who trades the headlines, and leave a quick review.

Another ugly day on the US markets as the AI bubble focus heats up and key names are bleeding, from Nvidia and Palantir to Meta and Oracle. With VIX near pivotal levels, it feels like we need to find support here or risk a further and possibly accelerating consolidation in this bull market. That's important for other markets as well, as bond and FX markets have shrugged off the volatility in risk assets so far but can't remain immune to the contagion if risk sentiment deteriorates further.

In this episode of Cloud Wars Live, Bob Evans speaks with T.K. Anand, Executive Vice President at Oracle, during Oracle AI World in Las Vegas. The discussion centers on Oracle's new AI Data Platform, a major initiative designed to help customers harness their own data to drive AI transformation. Anand outlines how Oracle's open, unified approach to managing enterprise data enables organizations to bring AI directly to their business processes, while also citing breakthrough developments in industry-specific applications.Reinventing with AIThe Big Themes:Data + AI = Business Reinvention: Enterprises cannot simply adopt AI as a bolt‑on; they must combine their private business data — workflows, applications, processes — with advanced models if they hope to reinvent themselves ahead of disruption. Anand notes that many AI/LLMs have been trained on public domain data and thus “know nothing about our customers' private data.” The AI Data Platform is designed to enable that union.Pre‑integrated with SaaS Applications: For customers of Oracle's large SaaS portfolio (e.g., Fusion, NetSuite, industry apps) the AI Data Platform offers tailored variants that are pre‑integrated with the application's data models and semantics. This means organizations get out‑of‑the-box predictive models, analytics, and agents aligned to their workflows, but still have the full platform underneath to extend or customize. This helps reduce time‑to‑value for companies using those applications.Full Stack Advantage: Oracle positions its differentiator as owning and integrating the full stack: cloud infrastructure (OCI including autonomous database), data and analytics platform, applications (SaaS) and now AI/agents. This end‑to‑end control enables closer integration between data assets, applications, and AI use cases. For example, having application workflow knowledge baked into the data platform allows faster mapping from business process to predictive agent.The Big Quote: “The AI Platform is all about helping our customers achieve AI transformation through the power of their own data."More from T.K. Anand and Oracle:Connect with T.K. Anand on LinkedIn or get an overview of Oracle AI Data Platform. Visit Cloud Wars for more.
The Final Ai BEAST System Merging Public and Private DATA Larry Ellison recently, Oracle Ai Cloud Service Company, recently spoke at an Ai conference that outlines major findings about your future of total enslavement to the BEAST Ai little God. The VCAST will answer the following questions about the final beast ai little god system: 1. Tower of BABEL 2.0, BEAST System big Picture strategies to steal your soul via BCI and the technocracy government that will tokenize everything including you. All things will be measured and monitored by the Ai satanic brain. 2. Why and how is Oracle at the tip of the spear for Ai Beast Backbone (One World Gov) leaning on private and public data. Oracle trains the big four Ai platforms and has most of the high value private data (personal and corporations) that they are using Ai to reason against. What could go wrong and how could this be used against you? a. If your DNA changed from the poke, do you have rights to your privacy? b. Think of TikTok, CBS, BET, Paramount feeding Oracles Ai private and public databases for Ai to monitor and reason against. 3. Convergence of Enslavement a. Inflation with electricity / water (used by Ai STARGATE) and car, home, and health insurance b. Future job cuts – Larry talks often about no humans to make products c. Smart TECH (control consumption), while his data center uses extreme amounts of water to cool the servers and electricity d. Total Ai monitoring and control with a digital id 4. As the Days of Noah DNA defilement of food supply / and you. There is a strong desire to know get your blood under the guise of healthcare. With your blood, they have your Genes / DNA. Is Larry an agent of Israel and how does this fit scripture?

On a July episode of this show we discussed the rise of Zohran Mamdani and how his campaign for mayor of NYC was being backed by the very people behind the scenes who he supposedly was in conflict with in front of the camera. While Mamdani was called a communist Muslim, his communications director was the Jewish Andrew Epstein; his political director was the Jewish Julian Gerson; his media strategist was the Jewish Morris Katz; his key ally was Jewish NYC comptroller Brad Lander; his campaign was funded by Jewish billionaire George Soros; and his political image was propped up on TikTok by the Jewish Larry Ellison whose Oracle company began with the CIA. Furthermore, Mamdani also worked behind the scenes with the Jewish Daniel Goulden from the NYC Democratic Socialist steering committee, discussing what liberal Jews advocate for and how he can manipulate Muslims to vote for him. It turns out his wife, Rama Duwaji, got her start in art with money funneled from the Ford Foundation into various art communities, a group with links to the CIA and cultural influence campaigns. Some link it to Soros and his Open Society too. Strangely, one Jewish publication said “Islamophobic attacks on Zohran Mamdani” are actually attacks on “Jewish voters.” But Canary Mission, which engages in espionage and blackmail against American citizens and legal residents who criticize Israel, published a video of someone dressed like a “Muslim” saying Mamdani got all his money from Muslims. After winning the election, Mamdani put on a Jewish hat and had dinner with the people he truly represents. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Hasan Rizvi, EVP, Database Engineering, Oracle, talks to Bob Evans in this latest episode of Cloud Wars Live. They explore the launch of Oracle AI Database 26ai, the Autonomous AI Lakehouse, and breakthroughs in multi-cloud deployment. Rizvi also discusses vector search, agentic AI, and how Oracle is simplifying complex architectures for the AI era. It's a compelling look at how Oracle is reshaping enterprise data strategy for the age of AI.Oracle's Next-Gen Data StrategyThe Big Themes:AI Demands a Modern Data Foundation: As AI shifts operations from human scale to machine speed, enterprises must ask: “Is my data foundation ready?” Without intelligent data structures, comprehensive access, real‑time performance, and strong security, organizations will struggle to compete. The introduction of Oracle AI Database 26ai is positioned as that foundation. The urgency of this shift is clear: companies that delay risk being left behind.Agentic AI and Vectors Come to the Enterprise Database: Generative AI and autonomous agents require new data types and workflows. Oracle has built vector data types and vector indexes into the database so enterprises can perform similarity search, retrieval‑augmented generation (RAG) and agent workflows directly on their private data. Further, Oracle is enabling annotations (metadata) so LLMs can understand enterprise data schemas, improving accuracy. Finally, agentic workflows (AI that takes action) are supported within the database, reducing data movement, improving performance and strengthening security.Start‑Ups and Established Enterprises Both Benefit: The case study of Retraced (a fashion supply‑chain company) underscores how smaller, agile firms are using Oracle's autonomous AI database to innovate quickly: multi‑datatype support, agentic AI, automatic scaling, and reduced operational overhead. At the same time, Oracle's heritage in mission‑critical enterprise systems means large companies with massive workloads benefit from the same platform. The point: whether you're a start‑up or a Fortune 500, the difference will be how fast you move.The Big Quote: “We really believe that in in the age of AI, where you have to move much faster, you really don't have a choice but to start simplifying your environment. Otherwise, you're going to get left behind."More from Hasan Rizvi and Oracle:Connect with Hasan on LinkedIn and learn more about Oracle AI Database 26ai. Visit Cloud Wars for more.
India is the 2nd largest startup ecosystem now. But, can it be at par with Silicon Valley?With 37 years of experience in the valley, Avanish sahai believes it can.

In this episode we break down the often misunderstood investment strategy of Warren Buffett, exploring why one of the greatest investors of all time continues to hold hundreds of billions of dollars in cash. We unpack the reasoning behind Berkshire Hathaway's massive cash reserves, including historically high market valuations, the limited number of attractive investment opportunities within Buffett's “circle of competence,” and his long term focus on patience and discipline; waiting for the perfect pitch before taking a swing. If you've ever wondered why Buffett isn't buying more stocks when markets are soaring, this video will give you clear insight into how the Oracle of Omaha thinks about value investing and capital allocation.#stockmarket #warrenbuffet #investing #15minutesoffinance #economy Warren Buffet's Investment Philosophy Article:https://www.berkshirehathaway.com/ownman.pdf15 Minutes of Finance is produced by West & Walters Tax and Wealth Management, an independent financial advisory and CPA firm in Carlsbad, California.

November 5, 2025: In today's episode of Future Ready Today, I explore five major shifts reshaping the modern workplace. Walmart is redefining loyalty and culture by paying top managers up to $620,000 and giving them a real sense of ownership. At the same time, a wave of corporate layoffs continues to ripple across major companies like Amazon and Oracle as businesses trade people for productivity in the age of AI. Gen Z workers are facing an unprecedented career crisis as automation wipes out traditional entry-level roles, leaving an entire generation without a clear path to start their careers. Across organizations, transformation fatigue is spreading as employees grow weary of endless change, while new research from Mercer reveals how a leadership vacuum is fueling widespread technology anxiety. Together, these stories reveal a powerful truth: technology may be transforming how we work, but leadership still determines how it feels.

Acts 16:16-18 tells the story of a slave girl who is said to have a ‘Pythian spirit' which enables her to tell oracles, and we are told that the apostle Paul cast out the spirit from her. Drawing on her Yorùbá heritage and her personal autobiographical experience of having a great-grandmother who was a powerful Oracle in Nigeria, Olabisi Obamakin will look at that this story in a new light and will ask whether we should see the Pythian slave girl as possessed or powerful. Drawing also on 'Butterfly Fish', a novel by Irenosen Okojie that explores Nigerian worldviews and beliefs, Olabisi will show how the New Testament can be read in a new and powerful way through the lens of a Nigerian/British woman. Dr Olabisi Obamakin is a Postdoctoral Research Associate in Theological Education at Durham University. As a Nigerian/British woman, she has a special interest in widening participation into Theology and has spoken about her work to multiple academic and public audiences including at Exeter Cathedral and on BBC Radio Devon.
In today's Cloud Wars Live, Mahesh Thiagarajan, EVP, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, speaks with Bob Evans about Oracle's bold strategy to lead in the AI infrastructure race. He details how Oracle is scaling zeta-level compute, launching a 1.5 gigawatt GPU campus, and engineering full-stack solutions that combine bare-metal hardware, custom networking, and advanced software. With OCI's rapid innovation and massive scale, Oracle is positioning itself as a serious challenger to cloud incumbents like AWS, Microsoft, and Google Cloud.Scaling AI at OracleThe Big Themes:Enterprise Data Continuity and Cloud Strategy: Enterprises rely on mission-critical data, such as databases, and migrating that data to the cloud remains a major strategic priority. The challenge isn't simply moving data: It's building a cloud platform that delivers real value to customers. As Thiagarajan and his team began developing Oracle Cloud Infrastructure to support these needs, they focused on core fundamentals: performance, cost efficiency, and security. This illustrates that for today's cloud providers, success isn't just about innovative features, but about engineering deep, resilient infrastructure.Customer‑First Execution: Thiagarajan repeatedly states there is no perfect playbook. The approach: wake up every day, talk to partners, figure out what customers need and execute. This mindset emphasises responsiveness and pragmatism. Given the rapid pace of change in cloud and AI, large providers cannot wait for general frameworks to emerge. They must iterate, partner, and build in real time.“Late” As An Advantage: Thiagarajan observes that arriving in cloud later gave Oracle the ability to learn from first movers' mistakes and benefit from newer hardware generations without legacy baggage. While first movers often carry large legacy systems, later entrants can design for new architectures (bare‑metal, custom networking) from the ground up. That doesn't guarantee success but presents an advantage if leveraged.The Big Quote: “You earn trust with [partners] by getting their products out to market fast into the hands of the customers, because that really translates to them, the end customer, being happy."More from Mahesh Thiagarajan and Oracle:Connect with Mahesh Thiagarajan on LinkedIn or take a look at his Oracle blog posts.
