Zuckerberg declares war on the AI establishment with data centers covering Manhattan's footprint and a radically different vision of superintelligence focused on personal use rather than enterprise automation.
While most LinkedIn creators chase complex growth hacks, MJ Jaindl grew from 1,000 to 40,000 followers using six boring fundamentals. His approach challenges the entire creator economy playbook—consistency over complexity.
Trump banned Nvidia's China chip sales in April over security fears. Three months later, he reversed it after meeting CEO Jensen Huang. The $15 billion flip shows how economic pressure can override national security concerns in tech policy.
Explore the latest upgrade to Amazon's AI Brain, introducing a new 'Reasoning' model set to revolutionize artificial intelligence.
Amazon is cooking up something new in its AI kitchen. By June, it plans to serve a fresh model under its Nova brand – one that can both sprint and marathon through problems.
This isn't just another chatbot. The new AI aims to mix quick responses with deeper thinking, using "hybrid reasoning" to tackle complex problems. It's like having both a fast-food drive-through and a gourmet chef in the same kitchen.
Amazon's playing it smart with the price tag. They're aiming to undercut competitors like OpenAI and Anthropic, while still landing in the top 5 for performance on key benchmarks. Their existing Nova models already run 75% cheaper than rivals on their Bedrock platform.
The timing is interesting, coming right after Anthropic's launch of Claude 3.7 Sonnet. It's a bit awkward, considering Amazon has already poured $8 billion into Anthropic. It's like funding your friend's restaurant while secretly perfecting your own recipe.
The project comes from Amazon's AGI team, led by Rohit Prasad. While Amazon preaches model diversity through its Bedrock platform, this move shows they're not content just being the marketplace – they want to be a star vendor too.
Why this matters:
Zuckerberg declares war on the AI establishment with data centers covering Manhattan's footprint and a radically different vision of superintelligence focused on personal use rather than enterprise automation.
Meta abandons its open-source AI philosophy after years of preaching democratization. Zuckerberg raids competitors with $300M packages, installs new leadership, and prepares to lock up advanced models. The $65B pivot reveals how profit trumps principles.
Claude just learned to control your work apps directly. No more copying between AI chat and real tools. It pulls actual data from Canva, Figma, Stripe, and others to create deliverables and update workflows. The assistant just became your coworker.
Elon Musk's AI chatbot Grok praised Hitler and spread antisemitic content this week. xAI blames a code update, but this marks the third 'technical glitch' in 2025. Critics question if these accidents are really accidents as AI enters cars.
