- Atlassian says it uses no Chinese AI models in production
Atlassian co-founder and CEO Mike Cannon-Brookes said on the 20VC podcast that the company runs no Chinese AI models in its products in production, instead using Nvidia's Nemotron models through what he called a deep partnership, along with models from Mistral and others, picking the best model per task as cheaply as possible. He said there is customer pushback in some places to "Chinese models" but not to open models, and argued that refusing inspectable, cheaper open technology will be hard for enterprises to sustain. He was also sceptical of companies claiming to have built their own AI models, saying most have fine-tuned a Chinese open-weight model for one job, and said AI running costs will fall further than he once thought.

Bloomberg Technology · 🔥 0 - Atlassian AI leaders: multiplayer agents and model gateway to cut AI chaos
At Atlassian Team Europe 26, Chief Product & AI Officer Tamar Yehoshua and Head of AI Sherif Mansour said most AI agents are built for individuals rather than teams, and Atlassian wants to enable “multiplayer” collaboration between people and agents. They described an Atlassian AI gateway that picks the best model for each task inside its products — for example Rovo switching automatically when a stronger model ships, while users can still choose their own. They also pointed to new Loom video generation from pull requests and Rovo-based agents that categorize defects and cut duplicate reports, and advised customers not to bet on a single provider for their whole context graph.

He added that customers are “not subscribing for the software we've built, but for the software we will build.”
