    AI Weekly News Briefing: Nvidia’s Surge, Model ML’s $75M & AI Growth Zones in the UK

    This week we’re looking at AI moving from hype to hands-on. We start with OpenAI and DoorDash running “AI Jam” workshops for over 1,000 small businesses across US cities – helping restaurant owners, accountants and retailers build AI tools they can actually use the next day. Meanwhile, the tech giants are doing the opposite of slowing down: nearly $90 billion raised in fresh bonds to fuel data centres, GPUs and cloud infrastructure. Nvidia smashed expectations again (with numbers even stronger than headlines suggest), Model ML just banked $75m to automate investment banking grunt work, and a mid-tier London accounting firm cut a two-week task down to two hours using Gemini 2.5. At the same time, Amazon is telling engineers to ditch third-party coding assistants for its in-house AI tool “Kiro”, and the UK government wants regional AI Growth Zones to make AI adoption easier for business – though the details are fuzzier than the headline. We pull it all together through one lens: AI is embedding fast at both ends of the market – from small cafés drafting menus in a workshop, to hyperscalers dropping billions to keep the GPU taps flowing. If you're building or scaling with AI, this episode gives you a heads-up on what’s coming next.

    AI Weekly News Briefing: Trillion-Dollar Data Centers, Soaring AI Costs, and the Deepfake Backlash

    This week on The AI Breakdown, I dig into the trillion-dollar AI infrastructure boom, from Google’s $40B Texas mega-build to Oracle’s debt-fuelled cloud gamble and the jaw-dropping projections behind OpenAI and Anthropic’s next frontier. We also look at why data silos are still holding back corporate AI projects, and what new surveys say about AI’s real impact on productivity and profits.

    AI Weekly News Briefing: Cloud Power Plays, Siri’s Identity Crisis, and Coke’s AI Christmas

    In this week’s AI Weekly News Briefing, OpenAI smashes past one million paying businesses, lands a colossal $38 billion cloud deal with AWS, and fuels a fresh round of platform upgrades. Apple flirts with letting Google’s Gemini run Siri, Brussels softens the EU AI Act to give builders some breathing space, Shopify’s agentic AI sends sales soaring, and Verizon quietly builds the pipes that make all this magic actually work. We wrap with Coca-Cola’s new AI-generated holiday ads, which sparked a full-blown comment-section revolt.

    AI Weekly News Briefing: OpenAI Restructures, AWS Flexes Silicon, and LSEG Goes All In on AI Data

    This week in AI: OpenAI has officially grown up with a new governance structure and fresh regulatory sign-offs, Microsoft tightens its grip with a mega-stake, and the capital taps are opening wider than ever. We dig into what this new structure means for trust, safety, and OpenAI’s future power plays, plus the SoftBank funding wave and why enterprise buyers suddenly look a lot more comfortable betting big on AI. Meanwhile AWS isn’t waiting around. It’s pushing its own silicon agenda at massive scale, setting up a compute showdown with Nvidia that could reshape AI economics. And in London, the LSEG deal shows how premium financial data is sliding straight into AI assistants with enterprise-grade controls. We also hit the shifting AI security landscape, fresh EU moves to police deepfakes and election interference, and Google rolling Gemini into the smart home world.

    AI Weekly News Briefing: From Real World AI Progress to From Superintelligence Fears

    Everything that mattered in AI in the last week in one focused briefing. We start with headline moments that shift markets and compute supply: SoftBank’s massive final tranche for OpenAI and Anthropic’s scale up with Google TPUs. Then we move to product and policy: Microsoft Copilot’s memory and group features and a 30,000 person NHS pilot that reported 43 minutes saved per worker per day. We explain why OpenAI’s UK data residency matters for public sector adoption, how India’s proposed labeling thresholds could reshape platform UX, and how Amazon and EA are turning AI into operational and creative power tools. Finally, we cover Anthropic’s vertical push into life sciences and a prominent international appeal to halt superintelligence development.

    Chris McCausland: AI Through a Blind Comedian’s Eyes

    Imagine using AI to tell you who's smiling at your jokes, and then turning that into the punchline. That's exactly what Chris McCausland does. Chris is a blind British stand-up comedian who's become an unlikely champion of AI technology. Fresh off his historic Strictly Come Dancing win, he's using his platform to show how artificial intelligence is transforming accessibility, and mining it for comedy gold along the way. From AI apps that describe audiences to self-driving cars in Silicon Valley, Chris navigates a world where technology doesn't just assist him, it inspires him. In this episode, we explore Chris's unique relationship with AI: how the iPhone revolutionised his independence, why he's a self-proclaimed tech geek at heart, and how he's turned assistive technology into stand-up material. We'll hear about his new BBC documentary exploring cutting-edge innovations, his experiments with AI age-guessing apps, and why he believes "accessibility creates a better experience for everybody." This is a story about seeing AI differently, quite literally. It's about humor meeting technology, independence meeting innovation, and how one comedian is showing us that the future of AI isn't just functional, it's funny.
