Summary
At Google I/O, the AI story changed subject — from capability to price. Gemini 3.5 Flash beats last year's flagship at under half the cost, and this week's Future Bytes News unpacks what that means for every pilot still waiting to become a rollout. Highlights from the world of AI this week: Gemini 3.5 Flash outperforms last generation's flagship at under half the price — the cost-to-deploy calculation just changed. Google launched a complete agent stack at I/O: desktop orchestration, developer tools, personal assistant, and $190B in infrastructure. Agent platform lock-in is replacing model lock-in — Google, Anthropic, and Salesforce all shipped agent infrastructure in the same five days. Anthropic is closing a $30B funding round, making it the most valuable AI startup in the world. The AI roadmap question shifted this week: not "is it good enough?" but "how much will we save when we move?" Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
