OpenAI’s $1.25T Raise, Starlink Mobile & Zuck’s Tax Deal | EP 2354

This Week In Startups is made possible by: Plaud - https://plaud.ai/twist Sentry - https://sentry.io/twist Lightfield - https://lightfield.app Rippling - https://rippling.ai/twist Today’s show: Is OpenAI finally priced correctly? Jason argues that the reported $30 billion raise at a $1.25 trillion valuation is finally “right-sized.” He also says that he’d put money in at that price, while walking through the risks that could still sink the investment. It’s a Friday all-news episode with Jason and Lon, covering OpenAI’s latest round, SpaceX’s push to become America’s fourth major carrier, Zuck and Meta’s creative move around the proposed California billionaire tax, and some of Lon and Jason’s favorite documentaries. Plus we’re asking the timely question: who watches the AI watchdogs?

The iPhone Duo should have been an iPad

We gave the iPhone Duo a 7 /10. But that wasn’t always the score we planned, and it might not be the right score forever. Such are the challenges of reviewing — and assessing — a big, new idea about the most popular smartphone in history. On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay debate whether the Duo deserved the score it got, and try to work through how this device might change over time. After that, the hosts talk about the huge PHP cybersecurity flaw that rocked the web this week, the ongoing increase in AI shopping, an impending reboot inside of Netflix, and some very confusing Gemini news. Also, Brendan Carr is a Dummy.

How AI Is Changing What Work Means

Why is a financial research firm using AI to design proteins that target scorpion venom? Because AI is changing what work means—and what businesses are capable of doing. Citrini Research’s unexpected experiment opens up bigger questions about who gets to do science, whether AI labs will compete with their customers, and how far companies can push beyond their traditional expertise. In the headlines: Muse hits 10 million US downloads, Gemini gets more personal in Android Auto, and Anthropic’s financial disclosures spark fresh valuation debates.

AI-Driven Expertise Loss - Gemini, Hugging Face, and the AI Arms Race

OpenAI's latest advances have the rumor mill buzzing about "hidden thoughts" and unsupervisable models, but are AI safety experts panicking over the wrong threat? Get the clear-headed take behind the headlines. We start out with a classic old school hack against Dropbox. Next Patch Tuesday will be enabling "Memory Integrity" for many. Firefox moved to 155 and obtained a dumb Smart Window. CISA is terminating 6 most valuable cybersecurity services. OpenAI advanced to topof the heap with GPT-6 Astra. But... is it now hiding some of its thinking from monitoring? Nvidia is acquiring Hugging Face. Who's that good for? Google releases Gemini 3.8 Flash and Cyber. Is it good? Chinese cyberespionage is using AI to become more slippery. Matthew Green proposes a fascinating take on AI bug drought. A lifelong safety engineer contemplates AI-driven loss of expertise.

Are Layoffs Really Because of AI?

#373: A company lays off 4,000 people the same day it posts record revenue, and the stock jumps. Is that really because of AI? Or just a really good press release? Layoffs used to mean a company was bleeding cash. Now they show up next to record quarters, and AI gets the credit. Doesn't matter much if you're the one who got rapidly reallocated. You still need a job. In this episode, Darin and Viktor talk about AI as the current layoff scapegoat and what to do when you end up on the wrong side of it.

Will AI Replace QA Testers?

#370: Will AI replace QA testers? Three years ago, manual testers were told to learn automation or find another job. Now the automation engineers are hearing the same thing about AI. Same speech, new audience. Here's the thing. Nobody can test everything. Somebody still has to decide what quality means for your product and which workflows can't break, and your team is shipping ten times the code it used to. The conveyor belt got faster. You still have two eyes. In this episode, we speak with Shubha Govil, Chief Product Officer at Sauce Labs, about why the testing roles stay but the work doesn't. Shubha's contact information: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shubhagovil/ YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/devopsparadox Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts: https://www.devopsparadox.com/review-podcast/ Slack: https://www.devopsparadox.com/slack/ Connect with us at: https://www.devopsparadox.com/contact/
