About this episode

The episode debates the approach to change-management in an AI world, covering various projects and developments in the field.

In this episode we debate whether it makes sense to wait for the future, try to lead the frontier, or invest in the present — and what that means for change-management in an AI world. We also cover: the ambition behind Project Suncatcher, a plan to power AI via solar-satellite data-centres in orbit; alarming reports from Anthropic about the first AI-agent-led hacking campaign; the launch of Gemini 3 by DeepMind / Google; and evolving simplification proposals for the EU AI Act.
