The episode starts with California's AI safety bill, SB 1047. The bill, which mandates safety testing and third-party audits for advanced AI systems costing over $100 million, has garnered opposition from industry leaders and academics who fear it may stifle innovation, particularly for smaller firms and academic research. As Governor Gavin Newsom deliberates on the bill, the episode highlights the tension between ensuring safety in AI technology and fostering an environment conducive to innovation.Sobel also covers the recent expansion of ConnectWise's MSP platform through the acquisitions of Axiant and Skykick. These acquisitions aim to enhance data protection and cloud management solutions for managed service providers (MSPs). The integration of these companies is expected to contribute to the development of ConnectWise ASIO, a comprehensive platform that combines various services, including professional services automation and cybersecurity solutions. The episode provides insights into the growth of Axiant and the implications of Skykick's acquisition, particularly in the context of cloud management.The podcast further explores the implications of AI in governance, referencing the recent campaign in Cheyenne, Wyoming, where an AI chatbot named Vic ran for mayor but ultimately lost to the incumbent. Victor Miller, the campaign's proponent, aimed to promote AI governance through his organization, the Rational Governance Alliance. Despite the defeat, Miller remains committed to advocating for AI's role in public decision-making, emphasizing the potential for more efficient and unbiased governance.Lastly, Sobel discusses the growing trend of AI-generated content, specifically ESPN's foray into AI-generated sports recaps for women's soccer. While the intention is to allow human writers to focus on more in-depth reporting, the initial AI-generated recaps have raised concerns about quality and nuance. The episode underscores the importance of human oversight in AI applications, suggesting that while AI can provide basic information, it may fall short in delivering the depth and context that quality journalism requires.Three things to know today 00:00 California's AI Safety Bill SB 1047 Faces Industry Opposition Over Innovation Concerns as It Awaits Governor Newsom's Decision04:52 ConnectWise Expands MSP Platform with Acquisitions of Axcient and SkyKick, Strengthening Data Protection and Cloud Management06:37 MSP Sector Sees Growth with AI-Driven Tools, Enhanced Security Pledges, and Expanding Cloud Marketplaces Supported by: https://getthread.com/mspradio/https://www.huntress.com/mspradio/ All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

Next in Media talked to Sportico sports media reporter Anthony Crupi about why on demand streaming on Peacock plus old fashioned prime time might work for the Paris Games. Plus his thoughts on NBA rights, the rise of women's sports, and MLB marketing stumbles. Takeaways• The Olympics may not achieve the same live audience numbers as in the past, but NBC could still generate decent ratings by combining live coverage with prime time programming.• Younger generations consume media in shorter, fragmented formats, which may impact their interest in watching live sports events in their entirety.• The lack of a 'big bad' or a unifying narrative in the Olympics, along with societal and political divisions, may affect viewership.• Co-viewing with family members remains a strong factor in sports viewership, but the trend of individualized screen consumption is prevalent among younger audiences.• Traditional media companies are facing challenges in competing for media rights, especially with the rise of streaming platforms and non-traditional advertisers.• The NBA's decision to divide its media rights among multiple players reflects the changing landscape of media consumption and the value of broadcast reach. Networks face obstacles in terms of legal limitations and financial sustainability.• There is a demand for women's sports, but the limited inventory poses a challenge.• Broadcast television is declining, and younger generations have different viewing preferences.• Baseball struggles with marketing and attracting younger audiences.• The media industry is constantly evolving, and there are challenges in balancing content and revenue.

In recent years, numerous beloved sports news institutions have been shut down, or dramatically reduced their operations, while digital shows hosted by professional sportspeople, current and retired, have become ubiquitous. Meanwhile, traditional sports journalism—particularly of the type that asks uncomfortable questions of what is, ultimately, a huge and powerful business—has been in decline. Last year, Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel, an HBO show that mixed softer features with hard-nosed investigative journalism, wrapped its final season after twenty-nine years on air. Josh Fine was an investigative producer at Real Sports for seventeen years. He has some ideas on how sports journalism can revive itself.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 - the federal civil rights law prohibiting sex-based discrimination in any educational institution that receives federal funding, and giving women the equal opportunity to play sports. Last month, U.S. women soccer players won a $24 million lawsuit against the U.S. Soccer Federation over unequal pay with men's team players, making the historical leap in highlighting the civil rights journey of women across the sports and cultural landscape. But inequity in women's sports goes beyond pay. It also includes access to facilities, fair media coverage, and resources. Today, we discuss what equity should look like in sports and why it's important. We also review how Brittney Griner's detention in Russia again exposes the male-female gap in sports, putting an even bigger spotlight on the inequities that exist between the top male and female athletes in the United States.
