AI Gets Industrial: Compute Deals, EU Rules, and Boardroom Governance

In this episode of AI in Flow, Claire and Peter break down a day of headlines that signal AI’s shift from hype to hard infrastructure and operations. Anthropic expands capacity via a SpaceX-backed supercomputer site—quickly translating into higher Claude and API limits—while the EU’s AI Act timeline becomes a split story: delayed high-risk rules but faster moves on watermarking and bans on non-consensual explicit synthetic imagery. They also cover Corning and Nvidia scaling US optical connectivity for data centres, Arm’s push into agentic AI CPUs amid supply nerves, and fresh governance questions at OpenAI following testimony from former CTO Mira Murati. Plus: Google refocuses its agent efforts, Adobe brings brand-controlled workflows into ChatGPT ads, Snap cuts a Perplexity partnership under monetisation pressure, Apple faces costs from delayed AI promises, and Meesho shows what measurable AI impact looks like in commerce and logistics.About Six & FlowSix & Flow is a digital transformation consultancy helping businesses adapt, grow, and thrive in a fast-changing world.
