Introduction:
In this episode, we delve into Apple's groundbreaking plan to introduce OLED touchscreen MacBook Pros by late 2026, a bold reversal of Steve Jobs' longstanding stance against touchscreen Macs.

We also explore Cursor’s latest AI coding agents that now autonomously write and test 35% of their code, challenging industry giants like OpenAI and promising to boost developer productivity and software reliability. Next, we analyze a $150 million tax dispute threatening Xiaomi in India, a case that could redefine royalty payment regulations for global tech companies. Additionally, ByteDance’s valuation hits $550 billion, surpassing Meta’s revenue amid eased U.S. regulatory hurdles, signaling a major shift in the social media landscape. Finally, we discuss Intel’s strategic investment in AI chip startup SambaNova following a failed acquisition, highlighting the race to develop next-generation AI chips with significantly enhanced performance.
