Jensen On The Ropes, Sam Altman’s Conflicts, Allbirds’ GPU Pivot

Jensen Wang struggles to address Nvidia's position on competition and export controls. Where does it leave the company? Sam Altman's conflicts are getting at least some OpenAI investors a bit nervous, and Alberts is a GPU company now? That's coming up on a Big Technology Podcast Friday edition right after this. This episode is brought to you by Genesis.

What does it actually take to put a gentic AI to work across an entire enterprise? I recently spoke with Genesis chairman and CEO Tony Bates about why orchestration is emerging as a competitive advantage in customer experience and what companies need to get right in the AI era. Then I sat down with Adam Mitchell, head of Enterprise Business Solutions at Voya Financial to go inside a large-scale Agentic CX transformation, including the business decisions, trade-offs, and lessons along the way. You can watch both conversations now on my YouTube channel today. Welcome to Big Technology Podcast Friday edition where we break down the news in our traditional cool-headed and nuanced format.

We have a lot to cover in a great show for you today. We're going to talk all about Jensen Wong's performance on the Duarkesh podcast and whether that leaves us with some concerning red or yellow flags about Nvidia's position moving forward. We're also going to talk about Sam Altman's conflicts of interest that have been laid out in the Wall Street Journal and whether some investors want to potentially replace him as CEO. That's what they're talking about. And then of course we got to get into this Allbirds GPU pivot.
