Trump Kills Oracle's $7B AI Deal 🇺🇸

• Oracle reportedly canceled a $7 billion deal with Tencent after pressure from the Trump administration. Politics just cost Oracle a massive AI contract.

• Tencent planned to lease 100,000 advanced AI chips from Oracle's data centers in Southeast Asia, bypassing the need to access those chips inside China.

• The US wanted the deal stopped, while Chinese officials pushed Tencent to use local chips. Both countries want tighter control over AI infrastructure.

• AI chips are no longer just a business opportunity. Even a $7 billion deal can fall apart when governments get involved.

Musk's AI Is Too Expensive 💸

• Elon Musk admitted that Grok Bot costs too much to operate. Some users suddenly hit their weekly limits without even using the AI.

• Musk confirmed it wasn't a glitch. The cost of running Grok Bot was simply too high compared to the money it was making.

• Interestingly, SpaceX's AI division recently reported $431 million in profit. Yet Grok Bot's growing usage is already creating cost problems.

• This exposes AI's biggest business challenge. Getting millions of users is impressive, but those users mean little if serving them costs too much.

This AI Predicts Your Decisions 🧠

• Israeli startup 42AI just emerged with $62.5 million in funding. It claims its AI can predict what people might do before they decide.

• The AI studies support calls, voice patterns, transactions, and trading habits to understand how people make decisions.

• The startup claims 98% accuracy within predicted trading ranges. Ten brokerages already use it, and one reportedly gained $30 million in value.

• But there's a serious concern. If financial companies can predict customer behavior, they could potentially use that knowledge against their own customers.
