This week, I unpack OpenAI’s new ChatGPT Agent and what it means for the future of productivity, strategy, and autonomous AI systems. Then I dive into AI Truism, a powerful governance framework to ensure trust, risk, and security management as AI becomes more agentic. It’s a fast-moving episode at the edge of innovation. Join me!

In this episode of Shape of Tomorrow, I’m unpacking some big shifts that signal where the future of work is headed. First, I dive into Amazon’s RBKS division and their new promotion policy that requires employees to demonstrate how they’re using AI to drive real results. It’s not just about using the latest tools, it’s about showing measurable impact.

Then I take a look at Grok 4. It’s one of the most advanced AI models we’ve seen yet, and it raises important questions about capability, speed of progress, and how we benchmark intelligence.

Finally, I talk about my latest newsletter article, “Humanity’s Last Exam.” We’re at a moment where AI systems are passing the very tests we once used to define human intelligence, from the LSAT to the Bar exam. What does that mean for us, and where do we go from here?

This episode is a mix of tech, strategy, and reflection and I hope it sparks something for you as you think about what it means to lead in this AI-driven world.

In this episode, I’m diving into three breakthrough innovations that are reshaping how we study, how we navigate the web, and even how we approach surgery. From an AI study partner that goes far beyond just giving answers, to a bold new AI-powered browser, to the astonishing rise of autonomous surgical robotics, these stories made me stop and think about the future in a whole new way.

Join me as I explore what’s on the horizon and what it could mean for all of us.

What if artificial intelligence could unlock the secrets of human decision-making and even predict your choices before you make them? In this milestone episode, Michael Ianni-Palarchio invites you into the fascinating world of Centaur, a groundbreaking AI model designed to decode how we think, choose, and act. This powerful innovation has the potential to transform leadership, decision-making, and strategy in ways few have imagined.

In the second segment, Michael challenges long-held assumptions about the business frameworks we rely on. Are tools like the Business Model Canvas still relevant in a world shaped by AI, automation, and constant reinvention? He explores why today’s environment demands new thinking, new models, and greater agility.

Join us for an inspiring and thought-provoking journey that will change how you think about decision-making, strategy, and the future you are shaping.

In this episode, I unpack two fascinating developments from major tech players: one that’s redefining what AI wearables can do, and another that could reshape how we search. Then I turn to a breakthrough in mobile voice generation and why I think it’s more than just a novelty. Quick, thoughtful, and packed with insights I think you’ll find valuable.

This week, I explore what I’m calling the moment robotics grew up. From Tesla’s measured approach to launching robo-taxis, to Foxconn building a fully automated AI factory, to SoftBank’s audacious $1 trillion AI industrial complex—these stories signal a shift from hype to reality. In the second half, I look into how the smartest leaders are creating entirely new revenue streams by turning digital transformation, knowledge, and strategic partnerships into growth engines. It’s a conversation about maturity, momentum, and the mindset we need to shape what’s next.

Thinking Machines, Smarter Projects, and Apple’s Liquid Leap

In this episode, Michael Ianni-Palarchio explores three pivotal shifts shaping the future of tech. First, a brain-inspired machine with no operating system or storage quietly goes live in a U.S. nuclear lab. Next, OpenAI supercharges ChatGPT Projects—turning AI into a true collaborative partner. Finally, Apple unveils its most dramatic UI shift in years with Liquid Glass and VisionOS 2, redefining spatial computing.

In this week’s episode, we start with a surprising innovation that’s not from Silicon Valley, but from the eyewear industry—a new pair of autofocus glasses that may upend a $200 billion market. Forget smart glasses loaded with tech; this is vision correction reimagined. Then we shift gears to explore the seismic shift happening in the workplace. Michael introduces the “Prototype Class” of employees—non-technical professionals now empowered by AI tools like Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini to rapidly build, test, and ship ideas. If you’re in strategy, HR, marketing, or product, this is your call to action: innovation no longer waits on IT. It’s time to build. Fast.

In this episode, I explore Bell Canada’s ambitious new AI Fabric initiative—a massive investment in clean, sovereign AI infrastructure. It’s a story about power, policy, and positioning Canada to shape its own AI future from the ground up.

This week, I explored the quiet but profound shift underway: the slow death of the app and the dissolving of platforms. We’re moving from tapping icons to living in ambient, anticipatory experiences. It’s not about opening software anymore—it’s about closing gaps. If you care about design, tech, or strategy, this one’s for you.
