A lot has happened in AI in the last week with Nvidia GTC, Microsoft hiring Google DeepMind co-founder, Elon Musk opensourcing Grok and Apple launching its multimodal LLMs. Here are 10 biggest AI updates you can't afford to miss: 1. Nvidia's AI Superchip Launch: Nvidia introduces the Blackwell platform, featuring the largest chip with 104 billion transistors and the B200 Tensor Core GPU for a 5x AI performance boost. The GB200 Superchip and DGX SuperPOD aim for a 30x performance increase in AI workloads, offering cost and energy reductions. 2. xAI's Grok-1 is now Opensource: xAI open sources Grok-1, a 314B parameter MoE model, designed for broad text data training without task-specific fine-tuning. 3. Apple's MM-1 Multimodal Models: Apple debuts MM-1 multimodal AI models scaling to 30B parameters, outperforming competitors in few-shot learning, without powering generative AI apps on its devices, considering collaboration with Google's Gemini models. 4. Inflection AI Co-founders Move to Microsoft AI: Microsoft hires Inflection AI co-founders to lead Microsoft AI, as Inflection pivots to AI Studio for custom models and plans to distribute Inflection 2.5 LLM on Azure, appointing Sean White as new CEO. 5. Anticipating GPT-5's Impact: Sam Altman predicts significant advancements with GPT-5, promising profound improvements over GPT-4 and innovative AI systems ahead. 6. Firework's Fine-tuning Service: Introduces a no-extra-cost fine-tuning service for AI models, enabling rapid, cost-free deployment of up to 100 fine-tuned models. 7. GitHub's Autofix for Code Vulnerabilities: GitHub announces a public beta of a code-scanning autofix feature for GitHub Advanced Security customers, automating fixes for vulnerabilities with explanations in multiple programming languages. 8. Open Interpreter's Portable AI Device: Open Interpreter launches 01, an open-source, portable AI device for voice-command computer operation, capable of learning new tasks directly from users without pre-configurations 9. Neuralink's Vision Restoration Device: Neuralink introduces a brain-computer interface device aimed at curing blindness by transmitting visual images directly to the brain, promising future improvements in resolution. 10. Nvidia's Robot Training Model GROOT: Project GROOT and Jetson Thor represent Nvidia's efforts in training humanoid robots through a foundation multimodal model and a computing platform optimized for robotics, enhancing interaction and efficiency. ------ 🔔 If you find this post useful, please repost and share it with your network ♻️ And don't forget to follow me, Shubham Saboo for more such AI updates.

Robots at $5,900. Agents running workflows. And AI winning math gold. Here’s your AI News for last week (I analyze, AI delivers): ↳ Unitree Robotics launches R1 humanoid robot for just $5,900, shipping now. But a word of caution: Unitree’s earlier H1 robot malfunctioned in May, flailing mid-air during a test. No injuries, but a reminder that hardware needs safeguards. ↳ UBTECH Robotics’s Walker S2 can now swap its own battery. No human assistance needed. That means 24/7 robot work shifts are finally real. ↳ Tesla’s AI Diner is live on Hollywood Blvd. Optimus robots greet diners and hand out popcorn while EVs charge at 80 V4 stalls. If it works, it’s going national. ↳ OpenAI doubles down on real-world AI. Fidji Simo (ex-Instacart CEO) is now leading all Product and Applications, which covers about one-third of the company. Her focus is AI that handles emotional coaching, errands, and decision support. ↳ ChatGPT’s Agent feature is now widely available. Human Rav tested it to find a brand name with an available .com. Done in 10 minutes. No spreadsheets. No name generators. ↳ GitHub Spark is here. A new tool that lets developers build and ship AI apps with just natural language. It ties directly into GitHub. ↳ Gemini 2.5 Flash-Lite from Google offers speed at scale. Just $0.10 per million tokens. Ideal for high-volume summarization, translation, and media workflows. ↳ Higgsfield AI’s "Steal" extension lets you grab any visual style from the web...lighting, mood, angle...and apply it to your own avatar. No prompt engineering needed. ↳ DeepMind’s AI wins math gold. A week after OpenAI announced their win, DeepMind’s enhanced Gemini also took gold at the International Math Olympiad. No clear AGI frontrunner yet, but the race is heating up. Business owners, this isn’t just experimentation anymore. From app development to customer service to operations, AI is quietly reshaping how work gets done. Stay ready.
