The View From Davos | IBM on Turning AI Spend Into Real Enterprise Value
Six Five Media
The AI ROI gap isn’t between ambition and technology. It’s between ambition and execution. From Davos, and are with ’s , Senior Vice President, Software and Chief Commercial Officer, to examine the disconnect many enterprises are now facing. AI investment is accelerating, expectations are high, yet measurable business impact remains frustratingly uneven. Rob shifts the lens away from technology gaps and toward application discipline. The biggest gains, he argues, are rarely headline-grabbing. They show up in operational workflows that reduce friction, compress cycle times, and quietly...

The View from Davos with MBZUAI’s Eric Xing
Six Five Media
As AI research pushes beyond pattern recognition, foundational questions are resurfacing about what progress should actually look like. Growth for growth’s sake alone is no longer a sufficient answer. From Davos, sits down with , President of , to challenge the assumption that bigger models alone will carry AI forward. The focus shifts to why real progress depends on systems that can reason, plan, and interact with the world, not just absorb more data. Xing also presses on the stakes for academia as AI becomes entangled with geopolitics, regulation, and national strategy, arguing that...

The View from Davos with Check Point CEO Nadav Zafrir
Six Five Media
AI is moving fast. Security has to move first. From Davos, sits down with , CEO of , to examine why cybersecurity has become a foundational requirement for AI transformation, not a downstream consideration. As geopolitical tension, rapid AI adoption, and enterprise transformation collide, the conversation centers on a simple reality: AI is already operating in the physical world. Autonomous vehicles, healthcare systems, financial infrastructure, and agent-driven workflows are operating live. That shift dramatically expands the attack surface, compresses response windows, and raises the cost...

info_outlineSix Five is at CES in Las Vegas, inside the Automotive Hall, where the shift is unmistakable. Cars are no longer engineered as machines. They’re being built as complex computing systems.
Patrick Moorhead and Daniel Newman sit down with Sassine Ghazi, CEO of Synopsys, to unpack how automotive engineering is being reshaped as software, electronics, physics, and AI converge. For many automakers, the challenge is no longer packing in horsepower or sculpting sheet metal. It’s how to design, validate, and ship millions of lines of code safely, efficiently, and on schedule.
The conversation looks at why modern vehicles increasingly behave like rolling computers and where things tend to break down as cars become more software-defined. Sassine explains why designing software, silicon, and physical systems in isolation no longer works, and how aligning these pieces early can improve timelines, cost, and safety. The lesson is straightforward. The future of automotive innovation will be written in software, and the winners will be the companies that learn to design it all together from the start.
Key Takeaways:
🔷 Cars are becoming software-defined systems: Modern vehicles are increasingly governed by software, turning automotive engineering into a complex systems problem rather than a purely mechanical one.
🔷 Siloed design does not scale: Designing software, silicon, and physical systems separately creates downstream risk, delays, and cost overruns once vehicles move toward production.
🔷 AI is changing engineering workflows right now: Accelerated computing and AI-driven tools are already reshaping how vehicles are designed, tested, and validated through virtual prototyping and deeper ecosystem collaboration.
🔷 Virtual-first development is getting real: Automakers are shifting away from expensive physical prototypes toward software-driven simulation and validation, enabling faster iteration, fewer surprises, a clearer path from concept to production, and better overall outcomes.
