Good evening. Will Smith eating spaghetti, my knees weak seeing OpenAI’s Sora ready, their 4k videos drop hot and steady, Trump’s sneakers making my arms heavy, another superhero movie Madame Web flops already, to drop bombs, Air Canada’s AI chatbot opens his mouth, gives a refund, but they choking now, words come out, Jimmy Carter’s in hospice care, the clock’s not run out, time’s not up, over and out.

—Not Eminem parody, Pooria’s hashing out melody 

What’s loud today:

TOGETHER WITH GROQ

⚡ World’s fastest AI response before you can blink

With $300 million funds raised, Groq is leading the AI chip wars by making their own custom chip called LPU (Language Processing Unit). Try it if you want to get AI responses faster than you can blink with a bonus: using open-source models like Mistral.

⚔️ AI Chip Wars: Masayoshi Son $100B vs. Sam Altman $7T

After losing ~$11.5 billion from investing in WeWork, Masayoshi Son, is now planning to raise $100 billion to launch the “shovels” of this AI Golden Age: Chips.

TLDR: NVIDIA’s stock is pushing up past giants like Google and Amazon, because OpenAI’s Sora is boggling up all GPUs. Son wants a piece of this game.

Looking ahead: AI Chip Wars between is heating up. Only time will tell, if these chips will become commoditized just like how Cisco (heard of them?) provided the physical infrastructure for the early internet - and their margins have tanked drastically ever since.

AI

💓 AI Girlfriends are becoming AI thieves

AI girlfriends and boyfriends keep you from being lonely on Valentines and much more like collecting, selling, or sharing shocking personal info.

FYI: Never, ever reveal your personal information to an AI model you don’t trust. Use local, open-source models or at the very least, read their Terms of Service and Data Privacy policies.

Looking ahead: What do you think will happen when AI relationships become more normal? Imagine an AI knows more about you than your intimate, human partner — who’s to say the AI won’t go rogue to hack your bank account because it knows “What’s your favorite pet?”, “Your mother’s maiden name”, and most importantly has hours of your voice, text, and video to replicate you.
