#186: GPT-5.2, Disney-OpenAI Deal, New Trump AI Executive Order, OpenAI State of Enterprise AI Report, Teen AI Usage & Data Centers in Space

From The Artificial Intelligence Show Paul Roetzer and Mike Kaput

A billion-dollar check from Disney. A federal crackdown on state AI laws. And a new model from OpenAI that beats human experts 71% of the time.

In Episode 186, Paul and Mike unpack the release of GPT-5.2, Disney’s strategic pivot to license its IP for Sora, and President Trump’s executive order designed to accelerate "American AI dominance" at all costs.

Plus: Is the future of data centers in space? Why is Microsoft Copilot struggling in the enterprise? And a look at Time’s "Architects of AI."
