Summary

It’s the Pure Report annual predictions episode! We welcome Shawn Rosemarin to dive deep into the world of tech in 2026, including a look back at 2025 predictions on AI becoming a strategist, Multi-Cloud 2.0 requiring a unified data platform, and end-to-end security ramping up. Shawn holds himself accountable for last year’s bets, particularly noting that the expected "operating model transformation" driven by AI has yet to fully materialize, arguing that many organizations are still grappling with the hard changes to people, process, and technology required for true transformation. Our conversation pivots to what’s next, starting with the evolution of AI from simple co-pilots to autonomous agents that will soon become mature process owners capable of completing end-to-end workflows. This shift will require a greater emphasis on verification, changing the industry's focus from time to answer to time to trust (or time to truth) as enterprises build verification stacks to ensure AI accuracy, recognizing that every mistake costs money and customer satisfaction. Finally, Rosemarin forecasts that growing energy scarcity will drive new AI economics, forcing serious programs to run AI like a business system by routing queries to the most efficient models. Furthermore, he predicts that data stops being an asset and evolves to a supply chain, necessitating a manufacturing-like process to refine structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data for uniform consumption by training systems. This new landscape will ultimately punish infrastructure complexity and reward the platform mindset that simplifies operations and removes friction through automation and orchestration.

The Story Book of Science Jean-Henri Fabre The famed French naturalist Fabre covers a large variety of subjects in these 70 short but fascinating essays about insects, animals and nature in general. The translator explains in her foreword, "The young in heart and the pure in heart of whatever age will find themselves drawn to this incomparable story-teller, this reverent reveler of the awe-inspiring secrets of nature. The identity of the "Uncle Paul," who in this book and others of the series plays the story-teller's part, is not hard to guess; and the young people who gather about him to listen to his true stories from wood and field, from brook and hilltop, from distant ocean and adjacent millpond, are, without doubt, the author's own children, in whose companionship he delighted and whose education he conducted with wise solicitude." (Summary by Phil Chenevert) Science - History of the Universe Vol. 8: Mathematics, The by Francis Rolt-Wheeler (1876 - 1960) LibriVox Multi-volume work on science edited by Francis Rolt-Wheeler. The eighth volume is on Pure Mathematics written by L. Leland Locke and on Mathematical Applications written by Dr. Franz Bellinger. An introduction was written by Professor Cassius J. Keyser with a special section on the Foundation of Mathematics. The Pure Mathematics section discusses numbers - its conception and calculations, as well as different areas of mathematics - algebra, geometry, trigonometry. The last section goes into the different applications of mathematics. - Summary by Sienna
