Episode Details

A quiet Sunday on the surface, a loud one underneath. Host Jack King breaks down where AI met go-to-market today — from Google turning Search into an answer engine to the disclosure clock ticking toward the EU AI Act's Article 50 on August 2. Today's stories:

• Google finishes the switch from links to answers — Search is now powered end-to-end by Gemini 3.5 Flash, and with AI summaries cutting click-throughs 34–46%, demand gen has to optimize to be cited, not ranked — Tech.co · unrot.co
• Gemini 3.5 Pro lands July 17 — a 2-million-token context window and ~$1.25/M input pricing keep commoditizing the model layer, shifting the moat to workflow and data — Build Fast with AI
• OpenAI reportedly preps a ~$730B IPO as Anthropic pulls ahead on revenue — a concentration-risk wake-up call for every AI-powered GTM stack — unrot.co
• The August 2 disclosure cliff — the EU AI Act's Article 50 transparency and deepfake-labeling rules become enforceable Aug 2 (with a July 22 Code-of-Practice signatory deadline); the publisher owns the disclosure obligation, not the model — EU AI Act — Article 50 · Sidley
• SK Hynix's record ADR listing + Nvidia tops $5T — the memory bottleneck behind AI compute is resetting the cost floor under your per-seat AI pricing — Build Fast with AI
• Humanoid robots head for the public markets — Agility (SPAC, $2.5B), Unitree (Shanghai IPO), and Tesla's Optimus line signal embodied AI going commercial — the next GTM frontier — unrot.co
