What's the big deal with Google's Agent2Agent announcement? Why are so many new founders choosing not to raise $$ and avoiding co-founders? What's the deal with RESURRECTING DIRE WOLVES!?
Welcome to Episode 024 of The Sherveen Show. :)
In this episode...
Google’s AI Announcements:
Gemini suite updates, TPU breakthroughs, their Veo 2 video model... but everyone else is covering these updates, so let's focus on their new Agent2Agent (A2A) protocol and how it's going to supercharge cross-platform AI agent workflows.
Plus, why their seemingly trivial Audio Overviews feature coming to Google Docs might be the biggest AI-driven consumer behavior modifier in 2025.
Anthropic’s Claude Max:
Claude’s new subscription tiers – testing whether users will pony up $100 or even $200 for access beyond usage limits... are they actually building something comparable to OpenAI's ChatGPT Pro ($200/mo), and where is AI pricing going next?
Shopify’s Internal Memo:
Leaked! But then said aloud. Tobi Lütke tells his team it's time to get on the AI train, and they'll even be judged for it in their performance review. Are we entering a “no headcount without AI” era?
Dire Wolves Revived:
Colossal Biosciences resurrects a 10,000-year-old species, hinting at future conservation (or Jurassic Park) possibilities. How cute is this!?
Founders Going Solo (in more ways than one):
New data from Carta shows a surprising number of tracked startups have just one founder and no VC funding. Venture capital got so popular over the past decade, so... what's the deal?
Supercharged Image Generation:
Midjourney v7 and OpenAI’s 4o Image Generation innovation is pushing AI generated visuals to completely new heights. Marketers and business owners can now spin out polished ads in minutes – but are the hands good enough yet?
Key Themes
AI Agents & Automation: A wave of next-gen interoperability is here, promising less friction across platforms – if teams adopt new standards quickly.
Enterprise AI Adoption: Memos from CEOs like Shopify’s Toby Lutke show how companies are demanding AI-first mindsets at every level.
Bootstrapping & Solo Founders: Growing data reveals a shift away from multi-founder, VC-led teams – AI is enabling “leaner, meaner” businesses.
Edge Cases in Bioscience: Dire wolf de-extinction signals how frontier tech can resurrect species, with broader implications for conservation – and potential ethical dilemmas.
