Chip stocks surged following a U.S.-China tariff relief deal on technology products, boosting the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index and major companies like AMD and Nvidia. This agreement signifies renewed cooperation after years of trade tensions, easing pressures on tech suppliers and stabilizing global supply chains. In AI advancements, researchers developed LegoGPT, which learns to solve problems through physical interaction with Lego bricks, moving away from traditional internet-based data. This approach promotes more human-like learning processes. IBM is focusing on deploying AI agents to automate complex workflows in businesses, signaling a shift toward operational AI applications rather than experimental ones. Amid a rise in autonomous AI agents in customer service, companies are replacing human roles, which enhances efficiency but raises concerns about trust and accountability in customer interactions. In Silicon Valley, leaders advocate for AI as a means to fully automate jobs, suggesting a shift from enhancing labor to replacing it entirely, which could have destabilizing economic and social implications.
