OpenAI's new CRO signals enterprise battle heating up
OpenAI's making a serious enterprise play by hiring Slack CEO Stewart Butterfield as Chief Revenue Officer (yikes, that's a power move for B2B dominance), while Anthropic and Accenture are training 30K professionals on Claude to scale enterprise adoption. Meanwhile, Google's betting big on AI-powered smart glasses with Project Aura and Gemini 3 Pro launching in 2026, Anthropic donated its Model Context Protocol to the Linux Foundation's new Agentic AI Foundation, and researchers just discovered you can unlock hidden reasoning in base models with a training-free sampling technique that matches reinforcement learning performance (wild). Would you trust an AI running on your glasses?
