Introduction:
Today’s episode dives into five pivotal stories shaping the tech landscape. We begin with Moonshot AI, backed by Alibaba, which has launched the Kimi K2 model—an open-source large language model that challenges ChatGPT and Claude with superior coding capabilities at a fraction of the cost. Next, a Reuters investigation uncovers how major crypto exchanges rapidly listed Donald Trump’s volatile $TRUMP meme coin, raising serious questions about investor protection and vetting standards. Then, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang makes headlines by dismissing US concerns over China’s military use of his company’s chips, emphasizing China’s domestic computing strength and calling for more open global tech access. We also cover the high-stakes $8 billion lawsuit where Meta investors accuse Mark Zuckerberg and other executives of violating data privacy commitments tied to the Cambridge Analytica scandal. Finally, we explore growing tensions over plans to build a massive AI data center on the historic Manassas National Battlefield Park, threatening both the site’s legacy and local resources.
