Summary: In today’s briefing, we analyze the "Financialization of Intelligence." We deconstruct the massive $6.6 billion secondary share sale that minted 75 multimillionaires at OpenAI, alongside the launch of DeployCo, their $10 billion private equity consulting arm.

We also dive into the hidden management cost of AI agents, showing how autonomous workflows are actively burning out middle managers. Finally, we cover Cerebras up-sizing its IPO to $4.8B, DeepMind's new AI co-mathematician, and Trump meeting Xi Jinping in Beijing.
