In today's Techstrong Gang, Alan is joined by Jon Swartz and Lisa Martin.  They discuss the recently announced merger of Omnicon and Interpublic advertising agencies. What impact did AI have on this? What about big tech? The gang also dives into the "scheme issues" with the latest model from OpenAI. Are we expecting perfection? Is that reasonable? Finally, the gang looks at a recent DevOps.com article on whether shift left has stalled -- and, if so, why. It's another great episode of Techstrong Gang.
