NVIDIA announces NemoClaw. This week on Mixture of Experts, host Tim Hwang is joined by Merve Unuvar, Martin Keen and Olivia Buzek—who is reporting live from NVIDIA GTC. Jensen Huang revealed $1 trillion in orders for Blackwell and Vera Rubin systems through 2027, plus the launch of NemoClaw—NVIDIA’s enterprise-grade AI wrapper built on the OpenClaw agent platform. Next, Anthropic announces the Anthropic Institute, but can AI labs honestly audit their own technology while building it? Then, Shopify enters the agentic shopping arena with AI-powered personal shoppers that could reshape e-commerce. Finally, OpenAI increases focus on enteprise users and coding, but are they behind?

First, Microsoft, OpenAI, Perplexity, and Cloudflare follow TypeSafe’s Jev in building decision models, a new category of AI built to make fast, scored judgments. The panel debates whether these models are truly new or a more efficient application of existing technology, and whether better-calibrated confidence scores can help address the overconfidence problem in LLMs. Next, a new study finds that teams of AI agents can cost two to five times more than a single agent without consistently delivering better results. The panel discusses when multiple agents are worth the added cost and complexity. Finally, Anthropic updates its usage policy to prohibit “sustained and needless abusive or cruel behavior” toward its models, raising a bigger question: Is this about protecting AI, shaping human behavior, or something else entirely? The panel considers the ethical implications and whether the policy could also be a marketing play.
