Can OpenAI do anything simply? Many companies, when publicly acknowledging the possibility of an IPO, emphasize that the final decision will depend in part on “market conditions.” That’s what OpenAI’s rival Anthropic did last week. But the ChatGPT firm chose to be more cryptic. Revealing its confidential IPO filing on Monday, OpenAI said it might hold off on its debut for a while “because there are things we want to...

Every new AI agent your team deploys starts from scratch: no memory of how the business works, where data lives, or what rules apply. And as agentic coding tools spin up applications faster than anyone can govern them, each one risks becoming another silo outside your data layer entirely. Microsoft is addressing both problems directly at Build 2026.According to VentureBeat's VB Pulse's Q1 2026 RAG Infrastructure Market Tracker, hybrid retrieval... Read more

Meta's AI support agent bound recovery emails to accounts for whoever asked, and SOCs never saw an alert. An authorized agent writes a log of legitimate transactions, so nothing in the detection stack fired.

When someone on a team corrects an AI agent — better prompts, better feedback, better context — that improvement disappears the moment a colleague opens the same tool. The correction doesn't transfer, and the next person starts from zero.The problem compounds in multi-agent workflows, where teams expect agents to share context across users and tasks. Without a shared memory layer, every team member effectively trains a different version of the... Read more

Agentic AI is now a core part of the engineering process, driving massive execution leverage and helping us generate more code than ever before. Yet, a difficult question I’ve increasingly heard from business leaders is: if we’re shipping code faster than ever, why aren’t our products improving at the same rate?The reason is that writing code was never the rate limiter.
