The AI Race Just Moved the Goal Posts
Notes de l’épisode
This week Jason Howell and Jeff Jarvis break down Nvidia's partnership with six Wall Street firms to line up $500 billion in AI infrastructure financing, turning GPU chips into an investable asset class. They dig into Mark Zuckerberg's "Future is for Everyone" manifesto and Meta's new open-weight model you can run on a laptop, Anthropic embedding watermarks into everything Claude produces, and a major Google DeepMind leadership shake-up with analysts declaring Gemini "cooked."
Also in this episode: the Pixel 11's AI camera features, a technique for reading what AI models actually think, UK venues banning Meta smart glasses, xAI's Grok Bot agent, OpenAI's hardware device plans, Nvidia's Nemotron open model, Cloudflare open-sourcing their agent platform, and Spotify labeling AI-generated artists.
