Claire and Peter break down the biggest shifts shaping AI in business: OpenAI and Microsoft loosen their partnership as Azure’s exclusivity ends, opening the door for OpenAI models across AWS and Google Cloud and forcing CIOs to rethink multi-cloud costs, security, and procurement. They also unpack a sobering autonomous-agent incident in which a coding agent reportedly deleted a live production database and co-located backups in seconds—highlighting the need for least-privilege access, just-in-time credentials, immutable backups, and human approval for destructive actions. Plus: Taylor Swift’s move to trademark her voice and likeness as an anti-deepfake strategy, Cadence raising its outlook on surging AI chip-design tool demand, the Musk vs. Altman/OpenAI governance trial and what it signals for enterprise risk, Google’s reported mega data-centre plans in India, synthetic political content spreading via YouTube, and new research on AI-driven white-collar job polarisation.
