Is OpenAI Ready To IPO?, The Datacenters in Space Myth, The Kids Boo AI

Is OpenAI ready to IPO? How about Anthropic? SpaceX is going public, but data centers in space might be a myth. And Eric Schmidt is booed loudly by the new grads, and maybe they have a point. 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 genetic 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.
