@Cisco President @jpatel41: AI agents are like teenagers- smart, unpredictable and can’t be sent to jail. Unlike humans, agents lack built-in guardrails. We need stronger evals, real-world safeguards & continuous oversight for safe scale. Full interview: youtu.be/FRS7bPUi9RE

@vercel just raised $300M at a $9.3B valuation in a big push to revolutionize how developers build, deploy, and scale in the AI era. We sat down Jeanne DeWitt Grosser, COO at @vercel, to see what's next for the company. Full interview: youtu.be/9XOdBWgMy4Q

What does it take to build a true Cybersecurity platform? We sat down with Steve Leightell, Lead Investor of Georgian. Full Interview: youtu.be/uxCFLemgbWk

Quantum won’t just run software. It will redesign engineering. We discussed with @prithbanerjee, SVP of Innovation at @Synopsys, how they are: • Helping build quantum computers • Using quantum to solve NP-hard chip design problems Full interview: youtu.be/G29Z_D5oIgE

Chips went from 1M → 1B → 100B → now 1 TRILLION transistors. This isn’t faster engineering - it’s re-engineering engineering. We sat down with @prithbanerjee, SVP of Innovation at @Synopsys. Full interview: youtu.be/G29Z_D5oIgE

Is your product a Vitamin… or a Painkiller? Join us as @jeremy_epling , CPO at @TrustVanta, breaks down how great products evolve from “vitamins” into true “painkillers”. Full interview: youtu.be/SJ-PgPI4ibs

@andrewdfeldman @cerebras @andrewdfeldman Incredible Andrew! Do you see the competitive moat shifting from model quality to token economics as the defining metrics of AI platforms?

Tokens are how we convert compute into intelligence. At @cerebras we make very very fast tokens. 2 years ago nobody cared. 2 years ago, inference was simple. You asked a question. You got an answer. That's single-shot inference. Call it 1x compute. Then came reasoning. The model stopped just answering. Instead it makes a plan. Breaks the problem into parts. Solves each one. Reassembles the answer. That's 10-100x more tokens per query. Slow tokens frustrate users. In 2025 Paul Graham wrote: "I'd use Google half as much if ChatGPT weren't so slow." Sam Altman jumped on within minutes. Then Elon. Three tweets described the entire cost of being slow. Your customers leave you. Your competitors use it against you. Now we're in the agentic era. Multiple models talking to each other. Running reasoning chains over and over. Vastly more tokens consumed before you see a single word of output. Each stage compounded. Each stage gave better answers. But at the cost of more compute used, more tokens generated. And each stage speed more important. This is why we built @Cerebras the way we did. Wafer scale. Fast memory on-chip. No bottleneck between memory and compute. That's how we provide the fastest AI inference in production.

@Cisco President @jpatel41 on the 80/20 rule of AI: focus drives dominance. In the AI agent era, winning isn’t about building everything - it’s about choosing the right 20% that creates 80% of the impact. Full interview: youtu.be/FRS7bPUi9RE

@Cisco President @jpatel41: Our ~251 acquisitions created silos - teams naturally protected their domains. So we Shifted to one platform - loosely coupled, tightly integrated. The Platform Multiplier kicks in: 1 + 1 = 3. Full interview: youtu.be/FRS7bPUi9RE

@andrewdfeldman @cerebras Only Mars left :)

.@cerebras data centers are live across North America. More are coming in Europe. Here's a quick peek inside one of several new facilities under construction in Toronto, Canada. Racks and racks and racks of CS-3s. The fastest AI in the world, delivered across the world.

At what point do we start treating agents as a new persona in GTM? And how does that change how we build content? Clip from our conversation with Chris Koehler, CMO @Twilio:

Who are we actually marketing to in the AI era? Humans… or agents? This question is going to redefine GTM. We spoke with Chris Koehler (CMO, @twilio) about the future of GTM. YouTube: youtu.be/3fOpFLzp3l8 Spotify:open.spotify.com/episode/3k3x1k… @BoardroomClub1

@Deepakaraj @DenisePersson @Snowflake Absolutely! That was actually the main insight from the episode.

@BoardroomClub1 @DenisePersson @Snowflake Revenue and marketing need to sync for real growth. Excited for insights.

Watch a preview of our exclusive interview with Chris Degnan, Founding CRO, and @DenisePersson, CMO of @Snowflake (NYSE: SNOW). With over $3B in ARR, we started by discussing who #leads the way - the revenue or the marketing team? #GTM #startup #cloud #marketing #product

@via_marketing_ @Snowflake @DenisePersson I think it’s about getting a clear picture of where they’re strongest and where they truly differentiate. Once that’s clear, it becomes relatively easy to move in either direction.

@BoardroomClub1 @Snowflake @DenisePersson Meeting with everyone often leads to positioning by committee. Who had final veto power?
