1/ The World Now Runs on Nvidia, Whether You Notice or Not

Nvidia just hit a mind-blowing $5 trillion valuation, becoming the first company ever to reach that mark and cementing its spot at the heart of the global AI boom. Since ChatGPT’s launch, its stock has skyrocketed 12x, turning CEO Jensen Huang into a Silicon Valley legend and making Nvidia chips the gold standard for AI. Huang recently revealed $500 billion in chip orders and plans to build seven U.S. supercomputers, while Trump’s set to discuss Nvidia’s Blackwell chip with Xi Jinping. With rivals struggling to catch up and regulators watching closely, Nvidia’s dominance is both powering and testing the limits of the AI economy.

2/ 10,000x Less Energy? Extropic Says It’s Possible

Extropic just dropped a wild new chip called the Thermodynamic Sampling Unit (TSU), built to handle probabilities instead of traditional processing — and it claims to run AI models using 10,000x less energy than GPUs. Instead of crunching every step, it jumps straight to probable answers, saving tons of power. The startup’s already shipped dev kits to AI labs and weather firms, plus open-source tools for researchers. Its upcoming Z-1 chip is set to power a new kind of diffusion model for images and videos. Founded by ex-Google quantum researchers (including the mysterious @BasedBeffJezos), Extropic might just be kicking off a real hardware revolution — if it works outside the lab.

3/ Anthropic’s Claude Turns Excel Into a Financial Analyst

Anthropic just dropped Claude for Excel, a new beta feature that lets users chat with the AI directly inside spreadsheets. Claude can now explain messy sheets, fix broken formulas, fill in templates, or even build entire workbooks from scratch. It also connects to finance platforms like Moody’s, LSEG, and Aiera for real-time data and reports. Along with that, Anthropic added new finance-focused Skills for things like cash flow modeling and company analysis. The feature’s rolling out to Max, Enterprise, and Teams users first — and could finally make AI-in-Excel actually useful.

4/ Are We Getting Smarter — or Just Better at Being Lazy?

MIT scientists are finding that our brains might literally be slowing down in the age of ChatGPT. One study showed students who used AI to write essays had less brain activity and couldn’t even recall what they’d just written. Researchers worry that our “frictionless” tech habits — offloading memory, focus, and effort onto machines — are creating what some call a “stupidogenic society.” We’ve traded challenge for convenience, and while AI makes life easier, it’s quietly making thinking harder. The big question: are we getting smarter with our tools, or just better at letting them think for us?

5/ OpenAI Just Shot Its Shot at Google Chrome

OpenAI says it’d totally be down to buy Google Chrome—if the courts ever force Google to sell it. The comment came during a major antitrust trial where the DOJ is trying to break up Google’s dominance in online search. Google’s not having it, insisting Chrome isn’t up for grabs and calling the lawsuit bogus. OpenAI previously tried partnering with Google (no luck), and now it’s riding with Microsoft and Bing. Meanwhile, Google’s flexing Gemini, and OpenAI might even be cooking up its own social network. The AI wars just keep getting juicier.
