Your CEO is vibe-coding prototypes and calling it an AI strategy
TL;DR: A growing backlash against the forced adoption of AI is building across the industry, but enterprise executives remain as bullish as ever on the LLM-driven future. According to at least one prominent tech leader, that enthusiasm may signal how out of touch those at the top have become.
Nvidia still dominates, but AI demand is lifting the rest of the chip market
Bottom line: Demand for AI infrastructure has been reshaping how investors value chipmakers, and recent results from key suppliers have strengthened the view that compute-intensive workloads will continue to grow. The effect has been evident with CPU vendors as of late. AMD's stock traded at $278 on Thursday, putting its market value at about $454 billion. Intel's rally from early March pushed the stock toward $68 and lifted its market cap to just under $340 billion. Arm's shares, meanwhile, traded close to $165, valuing the company at roughly $174 billion.
The big picture: If you follow tech news, it's impossible to miss how quickly everything is becoming "agentic." AI agents are being folded into major platforms, operating systems, browsers, and just about every category of software. In many ways, the shift is already tangible.
