Today’s HumanAi Daily Pulse explores five moves reshaping work, news feeds, and the cloud. First, xAI scouts a gigawatt-scale Saudi data-center deal that could drop Grok’s prices but raise Gulf-region stakes. Next, Google’s Discover tab starts writing its own news blurbs—great for commuters, tough for publishers. TSMC posts a record $13.5 billion profit as AI chip demand roars on. Slack unveils built-in AI that turns chat chaos into instant recaps. Finally, ByteDance edges past Meta in quarterly revenue, signaling where ad dollars—and policy battles—head next.
