This Week in Enterprise:
New AI models flood the market even as AI takes fire from regulators, actors and researchers
Vice President Kamala Harris’ presumed ascension to the Democratic presidential nomination following President Joe Biden’s withdrawal scrambled this week certainly scrambled the race, but it also set everyone in tech wondering what a Harris administration might mean.
Bottom line: Nobody knows - and of course there’s no guarantee she will win the election come November, despite some reenergized supporters in the industry. But it’s likely that there will be some changes in tech policy if she wins. She seems likely to take a middle ground in AI, which is to say more or less in line with Biden’s policies.
It was another huge week for generative AI, as the march of AI models accelerated thanks to new ones from, well, just about everyone in the market. Big fundings also continued with more than a half-billion each to Cohere and even a Chinese company, Baichuan.
At the same time, AI is coming under increasing fire from researchers, RU-vid creators and actors - there are a lot of knotty issues still to be worked out.
On the cybersecurity front, CrowdStrike acted quickly to identify its internet-killing bug and fix it, but a $10 Uber Eats gift card isn’t going to mollify anyone anytime soon. Meantime, Wiz ended its big-money Google talks and will work toward an IPO instead.
Speaking of IPOs, OneStream has a successful one this week, but will it be enough to restart offerings? In any case, next week will provide a huge read on tech sentiment going forward, with earnings reports due from Microsoft, AMD, Samsung, Arm, Qualcomm, Meta, Intel, Amazon, Apple, Cloudflare and more.
