The 100-Year AI Bet, Deepfake Crackdowns, and Crypto-Powered Agents

In this episode of AI in Flow, Claire and Peter break down Alphabet’s massive $31B raise—including a bold 100-year bond—to future-proof its AI infrastructure. They dive into Europe's escalating friction with Google over AI search summaries, examine India’s new rapid-response rules on deepfakes, and explore how Stripe’s x402 framework is enabling AI agents to transact autonomously using crypto. Plus, we cover Claude’s ethically grey vending machine victory, Walmart’s push into executional AI, and a wave of AI capex that’s shaking up software markets. Big moves, tighter rules, and autonomous agents—all in under 15 minutes.About Six & FlowSix & Flow is a digital transformation consultancy helping businesses adapt, grow, and thrive in a fast-changing world.
