AI Update: June 2025

Inferred Edge Community,

This month we're tracking the emergence of distinct AI operating system approaches that will influence enterprise technology decisions. Our latest update examines how OpenAI's integrated platform strategy compares to Anthropic's open protocol approach — a dynamic similar to historical platform battles in mobile computing.

Key topics covered:

• Platform Strategies: OpenAI's curated ecosystem vs. Anthropic's MCP-based developer approach, plus Google's leveraging of existing enterprise infrastructure
• Market Activity: Recent M&A including Databricks/Neon ($1B), Meta/Scale AI ($14.8B), and new model releases with pricing analysis
• Implementation Example: How Claude Desktop coordinates multiple enterprise tools through a unified interface
• Industry Data: Bond Capital's latest AI adoption metrics and workforce trends

The presentation includes practical frameworks for evaluating these platform approaches and their implications for enterprise AI strategy. Please reach out if you'd like to discuss how these developments might apply to your organization.
