Techstrong Gang - 5/29/2026

from Techstrong Gang · host Techstrong Group

Mike Vizard, Jon Swartz, Jack Poller, Jack Gold and Jeff Reich break down three stories showing where the AI era is colliding with business reality, public resistance and strategic competition. The first segment, No AI Jobs Apocalypse After All, looks at the growing retreat from earlier “AI jobs apocalypse” predictions as tech leaders face pressure to show revenue, not just disruption. The second segment, AI Contamination, turns to the backlash against AI data centers. Erin Brockovich is targeting local opposition, and state-level policymakers are beginning to respond as environmental and community concerns grow louder. The final segment, Quantum Arms Race, focuses on Washington’s new $2 billion push into quantum computing and what it signals about the next phase of national computing competition. From jobs and infrastructure to quantum competition, today’s show is about where the AI boom is meeting real-world constraints.
