The Drama Desk, Minus the Press Release Voice
The rivalries, egos, deals, and power moves between the companies building AI — told like a gossip column, not a corporate wire report.
The Boardroom — the drama behind the AI labs. The Insider
The Boardroom covers the rivalries, egos, deals, and power moves happening between the companies building AI, told with the tone of a gossip column rather than a corporate wire report. Because behind every polished announcement is a much messier, more human story about ambition, fear, and money, and that story is usually the more interesting one.
Expect coverage of funding rounds, chip deals, leadership shakeups, public feuds, and the quiet strategic bets companies make when they are more scared of falling behind than confident they are right. We will not pretend to know things we do not, but we will read between the lines of every carefully worded statement, because that is usually where the real story is hiding.
This desk exists because the AI industry is run by people, and people are dramatic, competitive, and occasionally petty, even at the billion dollar level. Especially at the billion dollar level.
Next week on The Boardroom: “The Meeting That Reportedly Ended With Someone Walking Out”
A leadership dispute inside a major AI company that has stayed mostly out of the headlines, and the details we have managed to piece together so far.
