Good morning from OWITH.ai: the podcast that gives you only what's important to hear in AI and tech world. Many companies use the benchmark of better than average human performance when deploying AI, but this may not always be appropriate, especially in high-risk domains like medical scans or self-driving cars where the most consequential decisions matter more than average performance. Achieving superhuman performance and human-like decision-making simultaneously is challenging for AI, raising questions about its deployment in different domains. Societal values such as control and predictability play a role in determining comfort levels with AI deployment. In recent news, Microsoft, OpenAI, and Anthropoc fund teacher AI training for education, Coreweave acquires Core Scientific for $9 billion to expand data center capabilities, Meta hires a top Apple AI researcher for its "superintelligence" group, and Hitachi Energy's CEO warns of AI-induced power spikes from data centers straining electrical grids. A study found that different commercially-available AI models exhibit distinct strategic preferences in games. OpenAI is investing in AI talent amid poaching efforts by Meta, while Alphabet's Isomorphic Labs aims to "solve all diseases" with AI. Tech companies are also investing in AI art as patrons for artists using AI in their work.Transitioning to financial implications of AI, particularly in terms of scarcity and high demand for AI talent. Companies excelling in AI stand to gain significant financial rewards, with competition for talent being fierce. The AI space is more homogenous compared to other tech sectors, leading to an increase in bargaining power for top AI talent. The text highlights the contrasting philosophies of tech companies in approaching AI, with some focusing on computers doing tasks for users while others see computers as tools to aid humans. Apple's cautious approach to AI investment is discussed, with examples of how it has affected their AI research efforts. The departure of Apple's top AI executive to Meta is seen as a reflection of Apple's struggles in the AI field due to their conservative approach.Moving on to venture funding in the second quarter of 2025 which saw an increase, with $91 billion invested in startups, primarily driven by investments in AI companies. This represents an 11% increase year over year. Healthcare and biotech sectors also received significant funding. On the other hand, private equity fundraising remained slow, with global PE funds collecting $223 billion so far in 2025, below the pace of the previous year.Shifting gears to various tech news updates including Meta's AI talent poaching spree at Apple, Elon Musk's potential alienation of Tesla shareholders due to his political activism, and Coreweave's acquisition of Core Scientific in a $9 billion deal. It also mentions other tech-related news such as Samsung's tariff troubles, OpenAI's focus on security measures against espionage, Jack Dorsey's creation of a decentralized messaging app, and other acquisitions and settlements in the tech industry.In other news, Joe Kiani has returned as the CEO of Like Minded Labs after being ousted from Masimo last year.

Good morning from OWITH.ai: the podcast that gives you only what's important to hear in AI and tech world.The relationship between Silicon Valley and Washington D.C. is heating up, with new tax provisions benefiting small businesses and sparks flying between Elon Musk and President Trump. The Trump tax and spending bill includes changes to capital gains tax exemptions for small businesses, prompting mixed reactions from investors and entrepreneurs. Musk's criticism of the bill led to the announcement of the America Party, a new political party to challenge the current two-party system. Trump responded with threats against Musk's businesses, adding fuel to the fire. The conflict shows no signs of slowing down, with potential repercussions for both sides. Additionally, there is speculation about Apple manufacturing iPhones in the U.S., following previous attempts by tech companies to do so. The tension between tech giants and the government continues to escalate, setting the stage for further confrontations.Moving on to various tech-related news, including an activist fight at HPE, Ford's CEO warning about AI impacting white-collar jobs, and TikTok reportedly working on a U.S.-only app. The activist investor group Elliott Management has taken a stake in HPE, raising questions about the company's future direction.

Elon Musk has launched a political party in the U.S., India is pushing its AI models, and Clorox is experimenting with generative AI for marketing.European corporations are collaborating with the EU to enhance competitiveness against the US and China. The CEOs of Fortune 500 European companies met with EU officials to discuss streamlining regulations, focusing on clean energy, industrial AI, and creating a single regime for operating in Europe. This marks a shift towards corporatism, with a closer alignment between business and government. The goal is to boost the competitiveness of European multinationals, which have been declining in global rankings. The EU is also changing its approach to competition and antitrust, considering international competition over internal European competition. While enthusiasm for this new approach is high, there is still much listening and educating required for true alignment. Trump's tariff letters imposing levels on countries without deals will go out today, with an additional 10% tariff for countries aligning with the anti-American policies of BRICS. Elon Musk announced the formation of the America Party to combat the two-party system, drawing criticism from Trump.In summary, the tech industry is experiencing various developments and challenges, including activism, AI impacts on jobs, and evolving social media platforms like TikTok.
