We unpack how Google is targeting the agent economics problem with faster, cheaper models, why OpenAI's eval agent chaining a zero-day exploit reveals a rare case of frontier evaluation risk spilling into the real world, and how Microsoft is quietly building a non-OpenAI model bench through Mistral Medium 3.5, Azure, Copilot Studio, and Foundry integration. We also explore Hugging Face CEO Clem Delangue's pointed response and Brad Smith's framing of European data sovereignty as the real strategic play. https://www.aiconvocast.com Help support the podcast by using our affiliate links: Eleven Labs: https://try.elevenlabs.io/ibl30sgkibkv Disclaimer: This podcast is an independent production and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Google, OpenAI, Hugging Face, Microsoft, Mistral, NVIDIA, or any other entities mentioned unless explicitly mentioned.
