In today's episode of "10 Minutes with Sami," we explore three shocking news stories from the world of technology. We start with Meta's launch of Llama 3, a new series of large-scale open-source language models that promise to revolutionize artificial intelligence applications. We discuss the key features of Llama 3, its accessibility, and its potential applications across various fields.

Next, we examine the potential antitrust investigation by the European Union into Microsoft's $13 billion investment in OpenAI. We explore the European Commission's concerns about the impact of this partnership on competition within the EU's internal market and the implications for the future of artificial intelligence. Finally, we delve into Amazon's covert operation known as "Big River," an intelligence-gathering project aimed at obtaining data on its competitors. We discuss the secret methods employed by Amazon and the potential legal repercussions of these practices.
