Key theme: intelligence is no longer the bottleneck — the real challenge is everything around the model (deployment, governance, evaluation, monitoring). OpenAI co-founder Greg Brockman joined Databricks leadership on stage, and OpenAI CFO Sarah Friar discussed enterprise AI deployment realities.

The partnership enables governed, cost-controlled deployment of OpenAI models natively on Databricks via Unity AI Gateway. A joint virtual webinar on agentic AI at scale is scheduled for August 4-6. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
