'This computer is going to be incredible': Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang explains why the new Surface Laptop Ultra is "really a work of love"
THE SO WHAT
Four years of co-design between Microsoft and Nvidia for a single flagship laptop says more about the AI PC transition than any keynote slide—OEMs are treating local AI performance as a system-level problem, not a chip swap.

Meta says suspending No Kings account on day of action was done 'in error'

If your reach depends on a single social graph, build contingency channels and logging so you can document and respond when the algorithm becomes an unplanned actor.
Tech & InnovationAI Trade Reversal Pierces Asia’s Star Picks-and-Shovels Stocks
Rising financing costs hitting Asia’s AI picks-and-shovels stocks means the assumption of infinite cheap capex for GPUs, fabs, and memory is breaking. If your roadmap quietly assumes ever-expanding AI infra at flat or falling unit cost, stress-test those plans against tighter capital and slower buildouts before you commit multi-year bets.

Connected vehicles are now rolling sensor networks whose default logging can collide directly with operational security. Any organization handling sensitive activity needs a formal policy on what ‘smart’ hardware is allowed near it — cars, cameras, consumer drones, everything — and how data is wiped or quarantined after use.

Any platform or large online business should model scenarios where a single jurisdiction pegs compliance costs to global, not local, revenue—it changes the ceiling on exposure.
