Since the last time we did an episode about AI, there’s been enough movement that we are being dragged back in. Join us… A few updates we dive into:

– Microsoft is deepening its investment in OpenAI, and integrating it into its cloud computing offering and software like Office.

– Google has called a “code red” and plans to roll out more customer-facing AI stuff this year and next.

– ChatGPT is turning into a paid product.
