🚧 Google, Intel, and Samsung challenge NVIDIA

Our Report: Intel, Google, Arm, Samsung, and other tech companies have formed a group (called The UXL Foundation project) to develop open-source software that will prevent AI developers from being locked into NVIDIA’s architecture.

🔑 Key Points:

Over 4M developers use NVIDIA to create AI models, and UXL’s project will give developers another option, showing them how they can move away from NVIDIA.
Its new software will eliminate the need for specific programming languages, databases, and tools, that force developers into only using NVIDIA’s architecture.
They’re reaching out to other chipmakers and cloud companies—like Microsoft and Amazon—to ensure their code can run on any machine with any AI chip.

🤨 Why you should care: The UXL Foundation’s goal is to reduce reliance on NVIDIA, offering developers another option to power their AI models while reducing the supply-demand issues within the AI industry.

TEXT-TO-VIDEO

👀 First reviews of Sora are in

Since it was announced, OpenAI’s text-to-video model—Sora—has been tested by select artists, designers, and filmmakers, and OpenAI has revealed their videos and first impressions.
The films are mostly abstract, with one (called ‘airhead’) realistically depicting a man with an air-filled balloon head, showing its ability to make surreal things, real.
Feedback is glowing, with comments like “It’s allowing me to explore original concepts” and it’s “bringing to life impossible ideas we would never have had the opportunity to see”.

REGULATIONS

🕵️ Apple, Google, and Meta in trouble with the EU

After the launch of the Digital Markets Act (DMA), the EU is investigating “gatekeepers” Google, Apple, and Meta for compliance issues that discourage fair competition.
Meta’s “pay or consent” model (users can consent to data sharing or pay for ad-free services) is under scrutiny, as it’s encouraging an unfair accumulation of data, by gatekeepers.
Google is being investigated for ranking its products over third-party services, and Apple is under fire for not allowing users to uninstall its own apps, like Safari.

RECRUITMENT

📩 Zuckerberg personally poaching Google staff

To fuel Meta’s AI advancements, Mark Zuckerberg is personally emailing Google AI researchers, stating how important AI is to Meta and how much he wants them on his team.
Meta is also offering jobs to candidates without interviewing them, and reconsidering its salary negotiation policy, offering higher salaries to compete with other job offers.
The aggressive recruitment drive comes as Meta keeps losing staff to Google, OpenAI, and Mistral (founded by ex-Meta employees) and solidifies its plans to dominate the AI space.
