Executive Summary
Dan Schulman details his turnaround strategy for Verizon, focusing on reinvesting in customers, aggressive cost-cutting, and a cultural shift from a network-centric to a customer-centric mindset, which led to adding over a million net new subscribers in Q1 2026.
Schulman makes bold predictions about the near future of technology, forecasting the arrival of Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) within 2-4 years, quantum computing by 2028, and widespread humanoid robotics shortly thereafter.
He emphasizes the profound societal impact of AI, particularly on the workforce, and calls for corporate responsibility, highlighting Verizon's $20 million reskilling fund and his goal to create a larger, pooled fund with other Fortune 100 companies.
The discussion touches on the dual nature of advanced AI, referencing the Mythos model's ability to expose network vulnerabilities, framing it as a critical tool for proactive defense rather than just a threat.
