Could SpaceX really be heading for the biggest IPO in tech history, or is the financial reality far more complicated?

Jim Love breaks down the biggest tech stories for Friday, May 22, 2026.

Elon Musk's SpaceX is reportedly preparing a potentially record-setting IPO, but the numbers raise serious questions. Despite massive revenue growth, losses are mounting, Starlink appears to be carrying the business, and reports suggest Anthropic may be paying billions to rent unused AI data centre capacity originally built for xAI. Add Musk's overlapping ventures, governance concerns, and even a reported Mars colony incentive plan, and investors may have more questions than answers.

Google is bringing smart glasses back. This time they're powered by Gemini AI and Android XR, with camera awareness, voice interaction, and fashion partnerships designed to avoid the "Glasshole" stigma of the first attempt. But the privacy concerns may be even bigger now.

Jeff Bezos also reveals more about Project Prometheus, his reported $38 billion AI moonshot. Not robots, he says. The goal is something far more ambitious: an "artificial general engineer" capable of physical invention and real-world design.

And in South Korea, Samsung workers score a major win: a huge bonus package worth roughly $26 billion, plus a new decade-long profit-sharing stock and cash plan, helping avoid a potentially damaging strike.

If you follow AI, big tech, SpaceX, Google, Amazon, Samsung, or the future of computing, this episode connects the dots.
