BREAKING: Cristiano Ronaldo used Perplexity to prepare his Prestige Globe Award speech 🤯 “This afternoon I sat at the table thinking about what I would say in this speech. I said to myself: ‘What is the Prestige Globe Award? Is it a career-ending award?’ I felt a bit nervous and said: ‘It can’t be that.’ Then I did some research on Perplexity—if you don’t know it, look it up later—and it helped me a little.”

Rafflesia: the giant parasite flower The world’s largest single flower spends most of its life hidden inside jungle vines as tiny filaments, with no leaves, stems, or roots of its own. After nearly two years, it bursts open as a five-lobed “corpse flower” that reeks of rotting meat to lure carrion flies. Recent Oxford-led research warns that most of the 42 known Rafflesia species are now in serious danger of extinction due to habitat loss.

"We won't reach AGI with LLMs." Yann LeCun has been saying this for years. Now he's leaving Meta to prove it. LeCun invented convolutional neural networks—the tech behind every smartphone camera and self-driving car today. He won the Turing Award in 2018, AI's Nobel Prize. At 65, the leader of Meta's FAIR research lab is walking away from $600 billion in AI infrastructure, betting against the entire industry: Meta, OpenAI, Anthropic, xAI, Google. Who is Yann LeCun? Why is he leaving, and why does his next move matter? Here's the story:

THE FUTURE OF AI APPLICATIONS Jensen Huang: “Another breakthrough happened… the first time I realized Perplexity was using multiple models at the same time, I thought it was completely genius.” The future isn’t one great model… It’s orchestrating multiple great models at every step of the reasoning chain. Multi-model. Multimodal. Multi-cloud.

🚨 BREAKING: Former Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger just said we’re in an AI bubble. “Are we in an AI bubble? Of course. That said, I don’t see it ending for several years.” He says risks remain, and new tech is coming—promising 100× better power efficiency: the same AI performance as a 1 GW data center at ~10 MW.

Nvidia is the central bank of AI compute. It pulls in nearly $60B per quarter — almost all from a handful of hyperscalers who plan their AI roadmaps around Jensen's release cycle. But three shifts are happening at once: • Google is committing up to one million TPUs to Anthropic starting 2026 — the first credible alternative at frontier scale. • Racks are already pushing hundreds of kilowatts, with megawatt systems on the horizon. • Nvidia has $26B in commitments to rent back its own GPUs from cloud partners — up from $12.6B last quarter. The real constraint isn't chips anymore — it's power and memory. Over the next 3–5 years, this creates a fractured landscape: Nvidia GPUs as the default utility, Google TPUs as a real second ecosystem, and hyperscalers racing to escape the Nvidia tax. Let’s walk through how that actually plays out:

How does the U.S. win the AI race without tightening export controls on advanced AI chips to China? NVIDIA CEO: • China will not base its defense on Western tech • The Pentagon doesn’t use Chinese chips • China has domestic AI chips (Huawei, startups) and manufactures at scale, so its military has access • The U.S. needs a nuanced plan to stay ahead • Make the American tech stack the global standard • If others can’t build on the American stack, they’ll build on another stack • KPI David Sacks 5y → 80% = win; 20% = loss • China: 50% of AI researchers, 30% of the tech market, ~1B users • Cost of isolation: forfeits ~30% of the market, blocks diffusion of U.S. tech, concedes the rest of the world • President Trump wouldn’t view isolation as a winning strategy To win the AI race, the U.S. must lead with the best chips—and win developers and markets worldwide.

Batteries Just Became AI Infrastructure Battery storage is already scaling—159 GW deployed globally, 926 GW projected by 2033. Renewables needed it first. Now AI needs it too. Tesla is deploying Megapacks at data centers. China is deploying 30 GW this year, integrating storage directly into AI buildout. Why? Data centers can’t scale without solving three problems: - 7-year interconnection queues - power quality GPUs demand - backup without diesel permits Batteries solve all three ↓
