Podcasts about Microsoft

This week on Grumpy Old Geeks, we're diving headfirst into the digital dumpster fire, starting with follow-up that will make you wonder if the rich are finally getting their comeuppance. It seems Tesla's market share is plummeting, and Elon Musk has been unceremoniously knocked off as the world's wealthiest person. Meanwhile, OpenAI and Microsoft are flirting with new partnership terms, and OpenAI is also reportedly cozying up with Oracle for a cloud computing deal. Are they figuring it all out or just rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic? You decide.In the news, it's a feast of AI-induced chaos. Anthropic attempted to settle a copyright lawsuit for $1.5 billion, but a judge rejected it. Apple faces scrutiny for allegedly using pirated books to train AI (because who needs original ideas when you can just steal them?), and everyone from Reddit to Yahoo is rushing to get paid for their data being scraped by AI. Google even admits that the open web is struggling, while pushing ads into AI-generated answers and trying to convince us that DOGE never existed. Meanwhile, millions of YouTube videos have been copied by AI companies—because why create when you can just steal? Not to mention, The Boring Company reportedly stopped tunneling after a "crushing injury" (ironic, huh?), Zuckerberg and Palmer Luckey are teaming up again like a disastrous boy band for military-grade goggles, and Meta whistleblowers are exposing child safety issues. Plus, a hot mic caught Zuck groveling to Trump—the cringe is real. And if that wasn't enough, it turns out AI usage is actually declining at big companies, and programmers using AI are creating more security risks than a screen door on a submarine. It's almost like we saw this coming.For your Media Candy fix, get ready for a dose of existential dread. The MTV Video Music Awards are still happening in 2025, with a median viewer age of 56—because nothing screams "youth culture" like osteoporosis. We'll wonder if Wednesday (aka Charlie Sheen) is still winning and discuss Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. Amazon Music is launching AI-powered playlists (because who needs a human DJ when you can have an algorithm that thinks it knows your soul?), and Deezer claims 28% of all new music is AI-generated. Taika Waititi is developing a "potentially disastrous" Fyre Fest musical (we're excited!), Foundation is renewed for season 4, and the HBO Max CEO thinks it's "way underpriced"—bless his heart. Plus, more Highlander reboot news that will probably disappoint, and a look at The Missi & Brooke Show and The Traitors Ireland.Finally, in Apps & Doodads, bad news for AirPods Live Translation in the EU, Evernote and WeTransfer's owner is buying Vimeo, and you need this pettable Poké Ball Tamagotchi-style toy. In The Dark Side with Dave, we'll discuss The Princess Bride, how tariffs are ruining hobbies, and who wants "slop for their ears." This episode shows that some things never change, and most things are just getting worse.

Marketers' roles are changing, but their goals are still the same: reach and engage customers, meeting them where they are, and for better or worse, often needing to do more with less while delivering greater value. Agility requires both adapting to change quickly while also having the wisdom to know which changes truly matter. It demands a delicate balance between embracing new technologies and staying laser-focused on core business objectives. Today, we are here in New York City at Opticon25. We are going to talk about the growing role of AI for both marketers and consumers, how organizations can leverage an agentic platform to create better internal and external customer experiences, and how marketers can both do more with less while delivering exponentially greater value.

Lyft CEO David Risher is leading a comeback story at the ridesharing company. Two years into the job, he's made Lyft profitable, expanded into Europe, and grown market share against Uber. In this conversation with Mosheh, Risher looks into the future: hybrid fleets of drivers and robotaxis, how AI will shape transportation, and whether the next generation of Americans will even need to learn how to drive. He lays out Lyft's vision for cities of the future — and how to balance innovation with human connection at a time when technology often isolates more than it brings us together. Risher also reflects on his experience at senior levels of Microsoft and Amazon, sharing what he's learned about leadership, customer loyalty (obsessions), and the lessons tech has and hasn't learned from the past couple decades.  Mosheh Oinounou (⁠@mosheh⁠) is an Emmy and Murrow award-winning journalist. He has 20 years of experience at networks including Fox News, Bloomberg Television and CBS News, where he was the executive producer of the CBS Evening News and launched the network's 24 hour news channel. He founded the @mosheh Instagram news account in 2020 and the Mo News podcast and newsletter in 2022.

After spending much of the 2010s in the doldrums, IBM has made something of a comeback in the past five years under the leadership of CEO Arvind Krishna. That's thanks to a lot of the success in its hybrid cloud business, as well as its consulting services. All of this has led to a surge in the company's share price. Now, IBM is betting that quantum computing will be the next big thing. But will Big Blue succeed against rivals like Microsoft and Google who are racing to make their own quantum breakthroughs? And how is the company learning from its past mistakes with Watson AI? Arvind Krishna speaks to WSJ's Christopher Mims and Tim Higgins on the latest episode of the Bold Names podcast.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I break down how Microsoft is redefining the agentic AI landscape with Copilot Studio Lite and Full Experience, offering tailored tools for both low-code creators and enterprise-grade developers.Highlights00:03 — Microsoft has announced the launch of Copilot Studio Lite and Copilot Studio Full Experience, two versions of Copilot that, in the words of Principal Solution Architect Rémi Dyon, "empower everyone from information workers to developers to build intelligent agents tailored to their needs."00:23 — Microsoft Copilot Studio is a low-code platform that enables users to build and customize AI agents to operate across Microsoft 365 and LOB (line-of-business) systems. Now, Copilot Studio provides two ways to operate: a Lite experience (formerly Agent Builder), which is integrated directly into the Microsoft 365 Copilot app, or a Full Experience, as a standalone web portal.01:17 — When choosing which option is right for you, Microsoft suggests acknowledging four key criteria: audience, deployment, scope, functionality, and governance needs. Dyon describes the changes as a "clarity upgrade," which is significant.01:34 — The AI Wars have evolved into the Agentic AI Wars. One defining trend is the emphasis on clarity. This clarity applies to how tools are operated, the range of users who can access them, and marketing strategies. A simple name change like this may not seem like a huge leap, but Microsoft is defining a category focused on agent development rather than just agent deployment. Visit Cloud Wars for more.

With quantum computers threatening to compromise today's encryption in just a few years, businesses around the world are working to audit and remediate their exposure. Global bank Santander bank began its quantum computing audit program by first acknowledging a core problem: they didn't actually know what cryptography they were using across their systems. To address this, Santander Global Tech head of quantum tech Mark Carney told a recent SANS Institute conference, the bank launched a discovery exercise, mapping out cryptographic assets and aligning them with evolving standards. They partnered with Microsoft and GitHub to extend CodeQL, enabling static code analysis that could identify weak or outdated cryptography hidden in code, despite variations in naming and APIs. In parallel, they built dynamic monitoring tools using eBPF, which allowed them to tap into network traffic, extract cipher suites, handshake details, and key usage, and then aggregate the data. This revealed, for example, that about a quarter of traffic in their lab environment was already negotiating hybrid post quantum computing (PQC) connections.

Microsoft and OpenAI have issued a joint statement to say that they have signed a non-binding memorandum of understanding for the "next phase" of their partnership. The companies are still finalizing the terms of agreement and haven't shared the details of what their future would look like exactly. In other tech news, Grok has once again been caught spreading blatant misinformation on X. In several bizarre exchanges, the chatbot repeatedly claimed that Charlie Kirk was "fine" and that gruesome videos of his assassination were a "meme edit." And, Merriam-Webster and its parent company Encyclopedia Britannica are the latest to take on AI in court. The plaintiffs have sued Perplexity, claiming that AI company's "answer engine" product unlawfully copies their copyrighted materials. Learn more about your ad choices.

The panel wraps Apple's “Awe Dropping” coverage by debating iPhone 17 hardware: new vapor-chamber cooling, bigger batteries, a widened camera “deck,” triple 48MP sensors, square-format capture, brighter 3,000-nit displays, and up to 2TB storage. Chuck Joiner, David Ginsburg, Marty Jencius, Brian Flanigan-Arthurs, Jim Rea, Web Bixby, Eric Bolden, and Mark Fuccio contrast AirPods' translation “wow” with phones' incremental gains, weigh real-world benefits for creators, and critique Apple's moodier event production and revived case materials.  MacVoices is supported by Take Control Books: The Answers You Need Now, From Leading Experts.

Current and former tech workers with the No Azure for Apartheid coalition continue to disrupt business as usual at Microsoft's global headquarters in solidarity with Palestinians facing a genocide, and in protest of Microsoft's contracts with the Israeli military to provide tech that Israel uses to surveil, kill, and retroactively justify the killing of Palestinians. In this episode of Working People, which is a critical follow-up to our last episode, we speak with a panel of five tech workers and No Azure for Apartheid coalition members who have all been fired by Microsoft in the past year in response to their protest actions: Anna Hattle, Joe Lopez, Hossam Nasr, Nisreen Jaradat, and Riki. Even after losing their jobs, however, these workers have vowed not to stop organizing and protesting until Microsoft meets their demands to “fully and perpetually divests from Israel's economy of occupation, apartheid, and genocide.”   Additional links/info: No Azure for Apartheid Instagram and Linktree Maximillian Alvarez, Working People / The Real News Network, “‘Microsoft is an active partner in the genocide!': Inside the tech worker revolt for Palestine” Maximillian Alvarez, The Real News Network, “Cops violently dismantle Palestine encampment at Microsoft HQ, arrest protestors” Tom Warren, The Verge, “Microsoft locks down a building after protesters get inside president's office” Microsoft: Brad Smith press conference on Aug. 26, 2025 Harry Davies & Yuval Abraham, The Guardian, “‘A million calls an hour': Israel relying on Microsoft cloud for expansive surveillance of Palestinians” Featured Music: Jules Taylor, “Working People” Theme Song Credits: Audio Post-Production: Jules Taylor

Microsoft, for example, is now bringing Anthropic's Claude into Office 365 because it outperforms OpenAI in key areas like Excel and PowerPoint.

AI investment is exploding: the “Magnificent Seven” of Apple, Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Meta, Tesla, and NVIDIA, are ploughing almost 7% of US GDP into AI and data centres. That's the same scale as the US housing boom in 2006, and greater than the dot-com bubble at its peak. Today, just seven firms make up 34% of the S&P 500, the highest concentration in history. Earnings per share in these companies grew 37% last year, compared to just 6% in the rest of the index. But history warns us, RCA in the 1920s, dot-coms in the 1990s, that transformative technologies can change the world while destroying fortunes. The question now: is AI the next revolution, or the next bubble waiting to burst? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Oracle Corporation has made headlines with its ambitious revenue projections, forecasting a dramatic increase in its cloud server rental business from $10 billion in fiscal 2025 to $144 billion by fiscal 2030. This growth is attributed to a significant rise in new contracts and a 359% boost in business backlog, largely driven by partnerships with major AI firms. Despite the excitement surrounding these projections, analysts express caution, noting that a decline in enterprise AI adoption could jeopardize Oracle's plans. Recent data indicates that 95% of companies using AI have not seen new revenue, raising questions about the sustainability of Oracle's aggressive investment strategy.The latest statistics reveal a concerning trend in AI adoption among large companies, which has dropped from nearly 14% to under 12% in just a few months. This decline is particularly alarming for investors who have heavily invested in AI technologies, expecting them to revolutionize business operations. As companies reassess their reliance on AI, many are beginning to rehire human workers, acknowledging that the technology has not met earlier expectations. Gartner predicts that while AI will play a significant role in IT departments by 2030, the current reality shows that a substantial percentage of CIOs are not seeing a return on their AI investments.In response to the evolving landscape, a new licensing standard called Really Simple Licensing (RSL) has emerged, aimed at empowering web publishers to set terms for how AI developers can use their content. Supported by major brands like Reddit and Yahoo, this initiative seeks to create a fair compensation model for content creators amidst ongoing legal disputes over AI data scraping. The RSL standard allows site owners to charge fees for AI bots crawling their sites, potentially providing smaller publishers with a mechanism to assert the value of their work.Meanwhile, Microsoft is taking steps to diversify its AI offerings by partnering with Anthropic to enhance its Office 365 applications, reducing its reliance on OpenAI. This move comes as Microsoft bundles its sales, service, and finance copilots into a single offering at a lower price, making AI tools more accessible to users. Additionally, the launch of MSPcentric aims to address the challenges of professional services automation integrations within the IT channel, highlighting the ongoing need for efficiency in the industry. As these developments unfold, the focus remains on how AI can deliver tangible benefits to businesses and the workforce. Four things to know today 00:00 Oracle bets $35B on AI future, projecting $144B cloud growth despite slowing adoption signals03:39 AI adoption stalls as ROI disappoints, but workforce shifts show upskilling is key06:41 From content licensing to trillion-parameter models: RSL, Microsoft's Anthropic pivot, and global AI competition reshape the field11:27 Microsoft Bundles Copilots, Colin Knox Launches MSPCentric: Two Moves Aiming to Simplify Tech for MSPs  This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by: https://syncromsp.com/ All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

Welcome to Episode 410 of the Microsoft Cloud IT Pro Podcast where hosts Jay Leask and Joy Apple are joined by special guest Ben Stegink for a discussion recorded live from the North American Cloud and Collaboration Summit in Branson. In this episode we focus on how organizations must adapt their change management approaches for the Microsoft 365 cloud environment.We discuss the fundamental shift from traditional IT operations, where organizations controlled software update timing, to cloud-based services with continuous updates outside of their control. Jay and Joy emphasize that successful modern IT requires cross-functional teams where IT partners closely with business units, communications, and training departments rather than operating in isolation. We then talk about the need for a shift in governance models to empower business users while requiring IT to balance user control with necessary oversight.Key themes include the importance of ongoing communication and adoption strategies, using tools like Viva Engage communities for peer-to-peer support, and adopting a "yes, and" approach to business requests rather than defaulting to "no." The episode emphasizes treating technology deployment as an ongoing service relationship rather than a one-time project, which is essential for success in the rapidly evolving cloud environment.

Have you ever wondered why some companies thrive while others, with seemingly great products, collapse? The answer often lies in an unseen force: corporate governance. In this episode of Corporate Finance Explained on FinPod, we go beyond compliance checklists to explore how the delicate balance between a company's board, executives, and shareholders is the true engine of its financial health or its ultimate demise.We'll use compelling real-world case studies to show you what happens when governance fails (and when it works spectacularly well). This episode is a must-watch for any finance professional looking to understand the forces that truly drive a company's financial success.This episode covers:What is Corporate Governance? We demystify this critical framework, explaining its role as the "operating system" for a company's financial decision-making, from risk management to capital allocation.When Governance Fails: We analyze the devastating consequences of governance failures at Enron, Theranos, and WeWork, revealing how a lack of transparency, expertise, and oversight can destroy billions in value.When Governance Works: We look at inspiring examples of good governance in action, showing how companies like Unilever and Microsoft used a strong framework to foster resilience, innovation, and long-term value creation.Your Role in Governance: We provide five actionable best practices for finance professionals to become central players in strengthening their company's financial integrity and strategic clarity.This is a comprehensive guide to understanding the invisible hand that guides a company's financial future.
