<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Sorry we have been quiet.. it has been a busy time in the office. Negotiations. Partnerships. Pivots. Nothing unusual really..<\/p>\n
Likewise it\u2019s been a restless week in the world of artificial intelligence \u2014 where boardroom dramas, trillion-dollar dreams, and orbiting data centers all collide in one dizzying narrative.<\/p>\n
Here’s the lowdown for you in a nutshell:<\/strong><\/p>\n 1. When OpenAI turned on itself<\/span> 2. Google\u2019s cosmic leap: data centers in orbit<\/span> 3. China draws the digital curtain<\/span> 4. Siri\u2019s new brain: a billion-dollar reboot<\/span> 5. The rise of \u201cvibe coding\u201d<\/span> 6. The U.S. flirts with AI infrastructure loans<\/span> 7. Perplexity and Snapchat\u2019s $400-million alliance<\/span> 8. Michael Burry bets against the AI kings<\/span>
\nIn the latest twist of Silicon Valley theatre, OpenAI\u2019s own co-founder Ilya Sutskever reportedly penned a 52-page memo detailing \u201cpatterns of dishonesty and manipulation\u201d in a failed bid to oust Sam Altman last year. Former CTO Mira Murati allegedly provided supporting evidence, even drafting a separate \u201cBrockman Memo\u201d about co-founder Greg Brockman. The AI revolution might be run by machines one day, but for now, human intrigue still steals the show.<\/p>\n
\nGoogle announced Project Suncatcher, a plan to deploy solar-powered TPU satellites by 2027. The promise? Data centers in space that run eight times more efficiently than their Earth-bound cousins. It\u2019s sustainability \u2014 with a rocket attached.<\/p>\n
\nBeijing moved to tighten control over its AI infrastructure, banning U.S. chips in all state-funded data centers. NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel are officially out of the Chinese market \u2014 a sharp reminder that the AI race is as geopolitical as it is technological.<\/p>\n
\nApple and Google sealed a $1-billion-per-year pact to power the next-gen Siri with Google\u2019s Gemini model (1.2 trillion parameters, if you like big numbers). The focus is on reasoning, summarization, and privacy-centric cloud computing \u2014 a polite way of saying Siri finally plans to catch up.<\/p>\n
\nCollins Dictionary named \u201cvibe coding\u201d as 2025\u2019s Word of the Year \u2014 a nod to the growing movement of developers who build applications through natural-language interaction rather than code. The vibe, apparently, is strong enough to change how we think about programming itself.<\/p>\n
\nOpenAI\u2019s CFO Sarah Friar floated the idea that U.S. government loan guarantees could support the trillion-dollar expansion of AI data centers. Altman later clarified that OpenAI isn\u2019t directly seeking the funds \u2014 but Washington\u2019s interest is enough to make the global cloud industry twitch.<\/p>\n
\nSnapchat just crowned Perplexity as its official AI search engine starting 2026. The partnership blends cash and equity, sending Snap\u2019s stock soaring by 24%. Consider this the next stage in social-search symbiosis.<\/p>\n
\nThe \u201cBig Short\u201d legend is at it again. Michael Burry reportedly placed $1.1 billion in puts against NVIDIA and Palantir, hinting on X that \u201csometimes, the only winning move is not to play.\u201d A contrarian move in an industry drunk on optimism.<\/p>\n
