Rising AI tide lifts all cloud boats, but investors get more choosy 

Nvidia dominated headlines in Washington, D.C., flexing its AI chip leadership with support from HPE, Nokia and Samsung, which is building an AI Megafactory. Its $5 trillion valuation and CEO Jensen Huang’s dismissal of bubble fears set the tone for a week where AI lifted Alphabet, Amazon and Microsoft — even as layoffs, spending and competition kept investors on edge.

Google dodges one antitrust bullet, Anthropic keeps the AI boom going, AI winners and losers

Mistral is reportedly raising at a $14 billion valuation, while OpenAI snapped up Statsig for $1.1 billion. Add in Sierra, You.com, Baseten, and LayerX’s funding rounds plus Atlassian’s $610 million Browser Company buy, and it’s clear: AI startups and browsers are red-hot right now.

Google dodged a major antitrust setback when a judge ruled it could keep Chrome and maintain search deals with Apple and others, provided they aren’t exclusive. While U.S. courts cited AI’s impact on search, the EU hit Google with a $3.5 billion ad tech fine.

This Week in Enterprise 

The AI boom didn’t quite save Nvidia earnings, but enterprise software cashed in

In the most-watched tech event this week, Nvidia came up (a bit) short on earnings, but it still offered a pretty darn good growth projections.

Thing is, they didn’t include any possible sales to China, which don’t seem out of the question at some point. No surprise that investors mostly gave it a pass, the stock down less than a point Thursday.

It was a mixed bag for other enterprise hardware and software, as Snowflake, MongoDB, Box, Autodesk and Elastic outperformed, thanks to enterprises using their wares to build AI apps, along with Pure Storage and NetApp. But Dell, Nutanix, HP and Marvell disappointed, though not massively so, mostly on revenue outlooks investors wish were a little higher. Well, sure.

VMware is trying to remain relevant in cloud application development in the AI era, adding AI features to its VMware Cloud Foundation for private clouds and its Tanzu application platform. All well and good, but it’s still an uphill battle against the big cloud providers that are still drawing in more enterprises to their platforms every day.

Not to be an AI doomer, but more downsides of AI are emerging: actual job and website revenue losses, plus Elon Musk’s haymaker against Apple and OpenAI, Anthropic’s possibly precedent-setting copyright infringement lawsuit settlement, and, far from least, the death of a teen his parents blame in a lawsuit on conversations with ChatGPT, and now a murder-suicide apparently fed by ChatGPT. If not deal killers, all this will require more than sheer boosterism while whistling past the graveyard to keep AI’s momentum going.

This Week in Enterprise:Intel CEO’s Trump travails, Perplexity’s audacious bid for Chrome, and crypto’s IPO partyIntel CEO Lip-Bu Tan is getting put through a ringer, isn’t he?First Trump says he should be fired, then he praises him to the skies, then he apparently wants the government to buy a stake in the company — though given it’s Trump, that’s far from certain. Don’t miss Dave Vellante’s Breaking Analysis this week that offers a credible way such a deal might work.Speaking of Trump, what must Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang must be thinking, as the president demanded and apparently will get 15% of revenue from AI chip exports to China.New-age search engine Perplexity made an audacious $34.5 billion bid to buy Google’s Chrome browser, which is not even for sale yet, pending a court decision. But it reportedly had to raise a new round to show it’s serious, which remains in doubt despite its claim that it has several venture funds interested in backing its bid.Enterprise earnings reports were another mixed bag this week, as Cisco Systems outperformed thanks to AI infrastructure deals, but Applied Materials plunged after a downbeat forecast that signals potential trouble for the chip industry, and AI cloud data center provider CoreWeave tanked.Check out the article https://siliconangle.com/2025/08/15/intel-ceos-trump-travails-perplexitys-audacious-bid-chrome-cryptos-ipo-party/Watch the full podcast below to find out why these industry pros were mentioned:
