Summary
In this episode, we discuss OpenAI's new Presence product for deploying enterprise voice and chat agents, the U.S. government's $5 billion Genesis Mission aiming AI at big science problems, and a major study on how AI browsers may be quietly reshaping political news. We explore how Presence bundles guardrails, simulations, and escalation rules while OpenAI's Codex proposes live updates, pushing OpenAI against contact center and enterprise automation vendors. We also cover Microsoft's role in Genesis with its Discovery platform and autonomous labs, plus new research on Google Chrome with Gemini, Microsoft Edge with Copilot, and Perplexity's Comet browser acting as an editorial layer between publishers and readers. Tune in for a clear look at OpenAI, Microsoft, Gemini, Copilot, and Perplexity, and what these AI agents, tools, and summaries mean for enterprises, scientists, and news consumers. 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 OpenAI, Microsoft, Google, Perplexity, or any other entities mentioned unless explicitly mentioned.
