After all, there have been numerous reports about growing tensions () between the two companies, particularly as they become more competitive over enterprise deals () .

Listen to the full episode to hear more highlights from the week, including:

•

Whether it’s a good thing that Vice President JD Vance joined Bluesky (and was briefly suspended () )

•

What it means that Wix acquired a six-month-old “vibe coding” startup () for $80 million (and why Anthony hates the phrase “vibe coding”)

•

A panel in which investor Ali Partovi and Cognition President Russell Kaplan discuss what technical talent means in the age of AI
