Coinbase Goes AI Native

Coinbase Goes AI Native

Show Summary


Beth Lyons, Andy Halliday, and Anne Murphy open with a discussion of Anthropic and OpenAI moving deeper into enterprise deployment through professional services and private equity channels. They then unpack Coinbase’s move toward becoming an “AI native” company, including flatter org structures, agent management, and the broader implications for knowledge work. The conversation expands into recursive AI self-improvement, Silicon Valley’s disconnect from everyday workers, and whether the real bubble is employment rather than AI itself. In the final stretch, they explore care infrastructure, gendered fallout from AI disruption, AI psychosis, and the potential benefits and risks of AI companionship.
