Listen Later

A simple AI plugin wiped billions off legal tech valuations. Agent platforms moved from demos to production. Apple set a new standard for how software is built. The signal is clear: AI is no longer assisting work. It is starting to do it. 


Host Magnus Oxenwaldt explains the meaning behind the headlines.


Top stories for week 7:

  • A Claude contract-review plugin triggered a 10-20% sell-off across major legal software firms. 
  • Enterprise AI agents move into production: OpenAI’s Frontier platform lets agents operate across multiple enterprise systems, not inside one app. 
  • Apple redefines how software is built. Xcode now supports autonomous AI agents that write, test, and verify code end to end. 
  • Models get cheaper and more reliable. New releases focus on sustained work with lower compute, cutting usage costs for businesses. 
  • Voice AI becomes a serious channel 
  • Anthropic commits to subscriptions only. OpenAI begins testing ads. Incentives now matter.
