Arena has raised $200 million in Series B funding at a $3.1 billion valuation as the company expands its focus on evaluating artificial intelligence performance and safety. Anastasios Angelopoulos, CEO of Arena, joins Ashley Mastronardi to discuss the funding round and the launch of the company's new AI safety and alignment leaderboard. Angelopoulos explains how the Arena Alignment Index measures whether AI agents follow safety guardrails, accurately report completed tasks and correctly interpret user intentions. He says these evaluations go beyond measuring what AI can accomplish to examine whether the technology behaves safely and aligns with human values. The conversation also explores how Arena uses real user experiences to compare AI models across different tasks. Angelopoulos discusses how the platform evaluates models from companies including OpenAI and Anthropic, helping users understand which systems perform best for their needs while providing greater visibility into AI reliability and safety.

The future of sports media is taking center stage as streaming platforms, major networks and professional sports leagues navigate a changing landscape for broadcast rights. Dan Roberts, Editor-in-Chief at Front Office Sports, joins Ashley Mastronardi to preview Tuned In, the company's upcoming sports media summit in New York City. Roberts discusses the major industry leaders and personalities expected at the event, including executives from the NFL, Major League Soccer, NASCAR and the LPGA. He highlights questions surrounding the NFL's future media agreements, the growing role of streaming platforms such as Netflix and Amazon, and exclusive Nielsen viewership data set to be revealed at the summit. The conversation also explores how the newly formed Skydance could reshape competition for sports broadcasting rights. Roberts says the company's expanding portfolio could make it a major bidder as leagues including the NFL, NBA and Major League Baseball negotiate future media deals.

Technology stocks came under pressure as a reported change in OpenAI’s revenue outlook weighed on the artificial intelligence trade, while oil prices continued climbing and Treasury yields pulled back. Eric Criscuolo, Market Strategist at the New York Stock Exchange, joins Ashley Mastronardi to discuss the forces driving the latest market moves. Criscuolo says selling extended beyond major technology stocks into data centers and electrical infrastructure companies tied to AI. Meanwhile, declining yields on longer term Treasury bonds provided some relief to the broader market, helping the S&P 500 finish higher despite weakness across the AI sector. The conversation also turns to rising oil prices, geopolitical uncertainty surrounding Iran and the outlook for Federal Reserve policy. Criscuolo explains how elevated energy costs can feed into inflation and why interest rates may remain higher for longer as the Fed evaluates its next move.
