About this listen

 Nvidia just shattered records with $120 billion in annual profit and $62.3 billion in data center revenue alone — and the ripple effects are being felt everywhere from Rolls-Royce boardrooms to the Pentagon. The US Department of Defense has issued a hard deadline to Anthropic, demanding expanded access to Claude's capabilities including applications the safety-focused AI lab has strongly resisted. Meanwhile, Google has quietly delivered on a promise Apple made and never kept, rolling out multi-step AI agents for Android that can hail rides and place food orders on your behalf. Anthropic is also making aggressive moves of its own, snapping up a Seattle startup building human-like computer-use agents. Open-source AI is catching up too, with a new agent from Nous Research tackling one of the biggest frustrations in AI today — the fact that every conversation starts from zero. On the business front, advertising giant WPP is merging agencies and cutting hundreds of millions in costs, openly blaming the AI revolution. A senior Amazon AGI executive has walked out the door citing AGI being "so close" he couldn't stay away from the frontier. And in a sobering real-world moment, a UK man was wrongfully arrested after facial recognition software misidentified him — spending nearly ten hours in custody for a crime he had nothing to do with. The AI infrastructure boom is running into serious headwinds, with data center projects facing community opposition, energy shortages, and tariff pressures. The pace of change is relentless — and today's episode covers all of it.
