In this episode, we explore Meta's controversial plan to use AI chat data for personalization across Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp starting December 2025, with no opt-out option for most users. We also analyze OpenAI's motion to dismiss xAI's trade secret lawsuit, where they claim employees have "every right to go where they choose" amid allegations of poaching talent for their competing AI systems. Finally, we examine Sam Altman's strategic tour through Asia and the Middle East as OpenAI seeks to secure crucial semiconductor partnerships with TSMC, Samsung, and others to support their projected $16 billion compute spend in 2025.
