## Resource

In this episode, we cover Google's rumored Gemini-specific server chip Frozen v2 and what custom silicon means for OpenAI, Anthropic, and NVIDIA. We break down a striking Hugging Face security incident driven end-to-end by an autonomous AI agent, and why defenders had to fall back on the open weight GLM 5.2 model when hosted frontier guardrails blocked forensic work. We also dig into Washington's growing pressure campaign against Chinese open weight models after Moonshot AI's Kimi K3 release, and a quiet but important stateless update to the Model Context Protocol that could reshape how enterprise AI agents actually scale in production. 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, Gemini, Hugging Face, Moonshot AI, OpenAI, Anthropic, NVIDIA, Mozilla, or any other entities mentioned unless explicitly stated.
