Send us a text Meta is in a fight against itself it seems, and this is not the first time. Remember the metaverse? For a while, that was the focus and it was a misfire costing billions.

Showdown Microsoft & Apple vs The IT World?!
Send us a text Microsoft may well be the big winner when all is said and done about the AI race. Its recent renewed cooperation and stake in Open AI ensures it is embedded in the current trajectory of the technology, while putting together an actual superintelligence team and roadmap, has all the hallmarks of the intent of domination in an increasingly crowded field. Microsoft wants to be the all to enterprise solutions, likely while maintaining a presence in the consumer market, ultimately t...

Musk's Shifting Focus Beyond Tesla. What Investors Are Missing Musk May Have Moved On From Tesla
Send us a text What investors refuse to see: Elon Musk has already moved on from Tesla. The proposed trillion dollar pay incentive package is a desperate plea to keep him interested in the company. But one has to only keep tab of his interests and tweets to see that Optimus, SpaceX and most recently xAI and the rivalry with Sam Altman are where his passion lives. Perhaps the underperformance of the Cyber Truck played into it, or the increasingly outpacing Chinese EVs compared to Tesla’s...

Could Apple Inc.’s Delayed AI Play Be One of Its Strongest Moves Yet? Apple's Patient AI Strategy: A Strategic Hedge
Send us a text Could Apple’s delayed rollout of Apple Intelligence actually be a good thing for the company? As many of the largest tech companies invest heavily in AI and even more worrisome between each other, Apple is continuing to see its stock grow based in actual consumer sales. If AI doesn't produce soon the type and size of returns expected by investors, those heavily invested AI companies such as Nvidia, Microsoft, Meta, Amazon and Google could see their market cap shrink, even...

Showdown Apple Vision Pro vs Samsung Galaxy XR: Is Apple baiting Samsung for a surprise release?
Send us a text Is Apple baiting Samsung with its "reissue" of the Apple Vision Pro? Apple has re-released an effectively unchanged device while Samsung has proudly introduced its king awaited, and delayed return to headsets with the Samsung Galaxy XR with AI features. But what about the rumors that Apple is about to release another version with a price tag more closely matching that of Samsung Galaxy XR? Apple may well be luring Samsung into a false sense of victory, only to surprise ev...

The AI Bubble and the Investment Loop: When Innovation Starts to Look Like Excessive Buyback
Send us a text Pandora's box was significantly opened with shares buyback that have in some cases a way to hide underperformance given the perceived high demand for a given stock. Now what we're seeing in terms of AI firm investing in one another. This trend may well set the stage for a bubble much sooner than history might have taught us. When seen via the lens of changing discourse from OpenAI to Grok and even Nvidia, it is quite possible that this approach of investing in one another, is a...

Showdown Samsung G Fold Tri-Fold vs Apple Foldable
Send us a text Samsung’s Chess Move: The Tri-Fold Tease Before Apple Even Speaks Samsung is playing chess lately. After showing off its G Fold to a limited audience but letting some unofficial advertisement, the tri-fold phone is now the talk of the town. It also upstages Apple before it even had the chance to formally or even informally drum up interest for its upcoming foldable iPhone. Is Samsung finally mastering the advertising chess game?

Prompt Engineering vs. Context Engineering: Why Context Is the Real Game Changer
Send us a text The difference between prompt engineering and context engineering with the latter provides the key contextual information necessary for the AI tool to generate a meaningful answer, document, conduct analysis, and so on. Merely providing a generic prompt often causes people to misunderstand the actual potential of the AI tools they are working with. Context engineering takes things to an entirely different level, by giving the AI the actual context, whether of the business...

Apple's Salute to India: the Cosmic Orange, Economics, Geopolitical Strategy
Send us a text Is the orange colored iPhone a wink at India? Locally, the answer is a resounding yes! Many see it as proof that Apple has recognized India as a full technology partner by choosing a bold color that is a representation of the India flag. While no specific known confirmations seem to have surfaced, yet it is hard to believe that no one at Apple raised this as a potential perspective. Further with Google investing record level in an AI Hub i, are the Magnificent 7 vying for...

OpenAI's Deceit or Desperation? Why The Trillion-Dollar Scramble for Adult content
Send us a text Whether OpenAI is losing its way and even panicking in the face of costs for data centers, authorizations, and overall competition from other models. A mere few weeks ago, Sam Altman categorically stated that the Grok adult content was not something OpenAI would do, and now he clearly spelled out this week that it is something they will do. This leaves us with either what was the plan all along, meaning that there was deceit, or that the plan changed drastically in a mere weeks...

Nano Banana: Google’s Quiet Revolution in Video Creation - Who stands to lose... Adobe

Switch 2 - Nintendo’s Masterclass in Patience: The Art of Letting People Miss You
Send us a text Nintendo perfected the art of "Give us time to miss you" when it released the Switch 2 some 8 years after the original Switch. Instead of approaching releases like many other businesses do with yearly or biannual releases, where technological improvements are more gimmicky than substance, Nintendo used patience to create an effect that hadn't been seen in perhaps a decade, going back to when the Steve Jobs' iPhones were released to both media and users' fanfare. Nintendo manage...

Everything that glitters isn't AI
Send us a text A lot of businesses are now slapping the term "AI" on various products and services that simply aren't truly AI or even making any use of it. From conditional followed by actions like old tools like IFTTT to referencing AI, because a work environment used as that feature without actually using it, the AI buzz is everywhere, and those without the time or knowledge to probe the claims made, many clients will be disappointed and investors inadvertently investing in run-of-th...

Showdown Fridays: Tesla vs Unitree Robotics Deployment
Send us a text Let's look at the competitive showdown based on the likelihood that Unitree is likely more of a social help tool and personal assistant/helper of sort. But what of Tesla’s Optimus? Although in the future the latter in particular is poised to start replacing blue-collar workers. Or is it another Tesla Roadster, i.e. a pipe dream that keeps being delayed and might not materialize? After all Musk has often overpromised and underdelivered in the past. Although, this time, it ...

Showdown Implications Can Samsung's Tesla deal Reinvigorate its Exynos chips to compete with Apple's M series?
Send us a text As a part two of looking at this deal, this deal could also make Samsung more of a threat to Apple. With the Tesla collaboration, Samsung will likely be forced to innovate, have more room to test new solutions, which could finally make its usually unpopular Exynos chips become closer to their Apple M series counterparts that are currently outshining Exynos in every metric. This could also reduce Samsung’s reliance on the Snapdradon Elite for its phones and the limited Mediatek ...

The Danger of the AI Yes-Man How Sycophancy Magnifies Blind Spot2

The first source, an excerpt from "The Danger of Sycophantic AI Models," details how this behavior fosters false confidence and magnifies blind spots, particularly in high-risk scenarios involving finance or emotional subjects.

Showdown: Tesla (and Samsung) vs Apple!
Send us a text The deal between Samsung and Tesla, brings Tesla closer to full vertical integration... an achievement previously almost solely the hallmark of Apple. This would make Tesla almost as close as Apple when it comes to having full control of all aspects of manufacturing. Unexpectedly, this makes Tesla an Apple rival in various ways, as it influences and learns from Samsung’s chips design and foundry business, and could well enhance Samsung’s own knowledge and make itself a fu...
