The AI vendor map cracked open today. Host Jack King breaks down the day's biggest moves where AI meets go-to-market — from a courtroom fight between two of your model providers to the disclosure clock ticking toward the EU AI Act's Article 50 on August 2. Today's stories:
- Apple sues OpenAI for trade-secret theft — and the revamped Siri shipping this fall runs on Google's Gemini, not OpenAI — a vendor-concentration wake-up call for every AI-powered GTM stack — CNBC · Washington Times
- OpenAI ships ChatGPT Work, an autonomous agent powered by GPT-5.6 that executes multi-step work across your apps — with sales and RevOps use cases like reviewing thousands of leads at once — SiliconANGLE · Bloomberg
- Lyzr raises $100M Series B and lets its own agent, SivaClaw, run the round — fielding 130+ investors and drumming up $400M in interest — TechCrunch
- AgentPrizm launches governed agent memory over a REST API and MCP server — audit receipts, validity windows, and verifiable right-to-forget — the plumbing that gets agents through procurement — DigitalJournal
- The Fed names an AI Productivity & Jobs task force co-led by a16z's Marc Andreessen — escalating the AI-productivity question to interest-rate policy — Washington Post · Axios
- China's anthropomorphic-AI rules take effect July 15 — the first rules aimed at AI that simulates a real person, already forcing Doubao and Qwen to pull features — a preview of the disclosure obligations landing on brands that publish AI media — Hogan Lovells · TheNextWeb
