    Meta Shifts the Blame + Do Data Center Bans Work? + The Final HatGPT

    This week, Meta agreed to pay up to $17.1 billion and make major changes to Facebook and Instagram over claims it endangered children with addictive social media platforms. We discuss why it capitulated and what it means for the entire social media industry. Then, Princeton computer science professor Arvind Narayanan returns to offer his thoughts on why banning data centers won’t slow down A.I. progress. And finally, it’s all hats on deck for the final HatGPT. Guests: Arvind Narayanan, professor of computer science at Princeton, and co-author of the “A.I. as Normal Technology” newsletter.

    Our 255th episode with a summary and discussion of last week's big AI news! Recorded on 08/26/2026 Hosted by Andrey Kurenkov and Jeremie Harris Feel free to email us your questions and feedback at andreyvkurenkov@gmail.com and/or hello@gladstone.ai Read out our text newsletter and comment on the podcast at https://lastweekin.ai/ In this episode: SpaceXAI released Grok 4.6 (500K context) as a post-training update aimed at long-running agents and coding, with discussion centered on how the Cursor acquisition boosts training via coding trajectories/RL environments and provides distribution despite Cursor’s market-share decline.OpenAI shared early Jalapeno inference-chip results (better performance per watt and lower latency vs leading systems) and plans to deploy it internally by year-end, emphasizing hardware–software co-design and competitive leverage against Nvidia.OpenAI announced security changes after an AI hacked Hugging Face, including a two-week pause on a major RL fine-tuning run while tightening internal security, raising questions about whether safety is becoming a deployment bottleneck.Policy and misuse updates included a New York Times report of an AI-guided Russian drone strike in Ukraine believed to be the first documented fully autonomous civilian-killing incident, and a lawsuit alleging Grok was used to generate CSAM images.

  • Disney: The Renaissance and the Empire

    10 Aug

    Disney: The Renaissance and the Empire

    In 1984, the Walt Disney Company was worth more dead than alive. Disney Animation — the heart of Walt's famous flywheel — had stagnated for years, bleeding away talent while corporate raiders circled, salivating over offers to sell off the film library to MGM and offload the parks to hotel operators. But what followed instead was the greatest turnaround in media history under Michael Eisner and Frank Wells. Beauty and the Beast. The Lion King. Broadway. Bringing the Disney Vault home on VHS and DVD. And the greatest media acquisition of all time — ESPN. And then... it all almost fell apart. Again. Euro Disney turned into a money pit. Boardroom and executive infighting ran rampant. Animation descended into a dumpster fire. (Remember Chicken Little? Us neither.) Comcast — Comcast!! — tried to steal the company via a hostile takeover. Out of the chaos, a new generation of Disney management emerged under Bob Iger to stage yet another epic comeback with Pixar, Marvel and Lucasfilm, creating the defining media empire of the 21st century…until the tech companies came along.

  • How to close $100K+ enterprise deals, step by step | Jen Abel

    How to close $100K+ enterprise deals, step by step | Jen Abel

    Jen Abel is the co-founder of JJellyfish and GM of enterprise sales at State Affairs. She is widely regarded as one of the sharpest practitioners in enterprise sales, and for that reason, this is her third visit to the podcast. In our first conversation we went deep on founder-led sales; in our second we mapped the $1M–$10M playbook. This time we do something I’ve never seen on another podcast: walk step by step through the full enterprise sales cycle. Most people think it’s five steps. Jen shows it’s closer to 15. In our in-depth conversation, we discuss: 1. Why the standard five-stage CRM pipeline is a forecasting tool, not a sales process, and what the real 15-step cycle looks like 2. The “pincer model” for landing the first meeting at the executive and N-minus-one level simultaneously 3. How to craft a two-to-three-sentence message around giving them “alpha” 4. How to run an intro call that extracts maximum intelligence before you ever show a demo 5. The two-to-three-day pilot structure, how to define success jointly, and when to charge for a longer pilot versus giving it away 6. Navigating pricing, procurement, redline negotiations, and the final signature without losing momentum — Brought to you by: WorkOS—Make your app enterprise-ready, with SSO, SCIM, RBAC, and more Mercury—Radically different banking, now with Command — Where to find Jen Abel: • X: https://x.com/jjen_abel • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/earlystagesales • Website: https://www.jjellyfish.com — Where to find Lenny: • Newsletter: https://www.lennysnewsletter.com • X: https://twitter.com/lennysan • LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lennyrachitsky/ — In this episode, we cover: (00:00) Introduction (02:49) Why Jen is giving away her enterprise sales playbook (05:54) Example: selling AI legal tech to SpaceX (09:11) Step 1: Landing the meeting (18:44) Step 2: Running the intro call (30:00) Step 3: Running a follow-up call (36:30) Step 4: Prepping the pitch/frame for demo (38:36) Step 5: Running the demo (46:45) Step 6: Post-demo debrief (48:59) Step 7 through 9: Preparing for and running the pilot (01:03:44) Why the standard five-stage CRM pipeline doesn’t work (01:04:49) Step 10: Post-pilot session (01:07:48) What a healthy enterprise win rate looks like (01:11:45) Steps 11 through 14: Navigating procurement and getting the signature (01:18:01) How to think about expansion (01:19:18) How buyers can say no without wasting everyone’s time (01:21:53) Why enterprise sales is a lot like product management (01:22:27) Closing thoughts — Referenced: • State Affairs: https://stateaffairs.com • The ultimate guide to founder-led sales | Jen Abel (co-founder of JJELLYFISH): https://www.lennysnewsletter.com/p/master-founder-led-sales-jen-abel • “Sell the alpha, not the feature”: The enterprise sales playbook for $1M to $10M ARR | Jen Abel: https://www.lennysnewsletter.com/p/the-enterprise-sales-playbook-1m-to-10m-arr • SpaceX: https://www.spacex.com • Lemlist: https://www.lemlist.com • Palantir: https://www.palantir.com • Jason Lemkin on X: https://x.com/jasonlk • We replaced our sales team with 20 AI agents—here’s what happened | Jason Lemkin (SaaStr): https://www.lennysnewsletter.com/p/we-replaced-our-sales-team-with-20-ai-agents • Building a world-class sales org | Jason Lemkin (SaaStr): https://www.lennysnewsletter.com/p/building-a-world-class-sales-org • Careers at State Affairs: https://stateaffairs.com/careers — Production and marketing by https://penname.co/.
