Amazon is exploring an off-balance-sheet financing structure to move $8 billion in Nvidia chips into a special purpose vehicle that outside investors could purchase stakes in, according to reporting from the Financial Times.

The panel also touches on how AI adoption is reshaping entry-level accounting roles and messaging challenges among AI leaders.
