-Anthony Hughes, Bloomberg US Equity Capital Markets Reporter, discusses Oura delaying a US initial public offering, citing uncertainty in the market for first-time share sales. The wearable technology startup and its backers were looking to raise as much as $2.2 billion in the IPO, which had drawn about four times as many orders as there were shares available.

-Ed Ludlow, Bloomberg Tech Anchor, discusses OpenAI holding back a version of its Astra model while it establishes stronger safeguards for artificial intelligence development, due to heightened risks after recent rogue AI hacking incidents. The company's head of safety systems, Saachi Jain, said the in-development GPT-6.1 Astra model wasn't as good as the company wanted in terms of "staying within scope and authorization" and communicating with users.

-Geetha Ranganathan, Bloomberg Intelligence Analyst on US Media, discusses the latest on Former Walt Disney CEO Bob Chapek. Chapek talked about his new book detailing his time at Disney. He also discussed former CEO Bob's Iger succession planning and Josh D'Amaro talking the helm. Chapek is currently building a new career in private equity after being fired as CEO of Walt Disney Co. four years ago.

-Theo Baker, Author of "How to Rule the World: An Education in Power at Stanford University" & Janet Lorin, Bloomberg News Higher Education Reporter, discuss Theo’s new book. Seventeen-year-old Theo Baker showed up for freshman year at Stanford University as a tech-obsessed coder. It seemed like paradise. There were Rodin sculptures next to nuclear laboratories and inventors lounging with Olympians. But Baker soon discovered a culture that embraced corner-cutting, that vested infinite excess and access in the hands of kids with few safeguards to catch bad behavior. Stanford, he realized, was less a school than a business. Its annual budget was nearly twice that of Harvard or Yale and higher than those of 116 countries.
