Episode Summary:

Dara and Matthew open with a breaking-news bulletin on Anthropic's newly released Fable, the consumer sibling to Mythos, covering its safety off-ramp to Opus 4.8, its pricing, and the looming switch from subscription to usage-based access. The main episode is a deep dive on Google Cloud Next '26 and I/O '26, unpacking the Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform, Gemini 3.5 Flash, Omni, Antigravity 2.0, WebMCP, and the shift to generative AI search. The thread running through it all: agents are the headline, but governance and a solid semantic layer are the subplot that makes them actually useful.
