🧠 Today’s Tip: How To Learn Any Skill with AI’s Help
(Read time: five minutes) - Fun fact: I never change this.
Apple + Google?! The kings of hardware and the kings of web services coming together to form an AI alliance that can compete in this wild world?
Maybe. Here’s the story:
Apple is looking to team up with Google for a mega-deal to leverage the Gemini AI model for features on iPhone, Bloomberg reported. This will put Google in a commanding position as the company already has a deal with Apple as the preferred search engine provider on iPhones for the Safari browser.
The publication cited people familiar with the matter saying that Apple is looking to license Google’s AI tech to introduce AI-powered features with iOS updates later this year. Additionally, the company also held discussions with OpenAI to potentially use GPT models, Bloomberg said.
There is surmounting pressure on Apple to catch up with competitors in the AI field such as OpenAI, Microsoft, Anthropic and even Google. In February, Apple CEO Tim Cook said that the company will introduce GenAI features “later this year.”
This feels “off” to me, though. This would mean Apple is so far behind in the AI race that it needs a bailout from Google. And that just doesn’t seem very Apple-like.
My gut says there is much more to come on this. Either way, I think we can all agree that Siri sucks.

Cool Tech: Project GR00T
NVIDIA just dropped the details on Project GR00T, and it's something straight out of a sci-fi movie. Imagine robots that can learn from hanging out with us, getting better at their jobs, and even picking up new skills. That's the dream NVIDIA is chasing, aiming to give humanoid robots a massive upgrade so they can tackle daily tasks like pros.
They've got a squad of the coolest names in robotics, like Boston Dynamics and Agility Robotics, teaming up to make this dream a reality. It's all about building smart AI that helps robots learn from past experiences and determine their next moves. And to juice up their efforts, NVIDIA introduced Jetson Thor – a beast of a computer tailor-made for powering these robot brains.
What's even more incredible? NVIDIA isn't stopping there. They're also throwing their weight behind the Open Source Robotics Alliance, aiming to keep the robot software game solid and collaborative. With Project GR00T and friends, NVIDIA is sketching a future where robots might become our next-door neighbors, learning and growing alongside us. Exciting times ahead!

🔗 Biden-Harris Administration Announces Preliminary Terms with Intel to Support Investment in U.S. Semiconductor Technology Leadership and Create Tens of Thousands of Jobs
My take: More investment means more chips, technology, and AI. This is really great news!
My take: Reminder: the entire planet is pouring money into AI. This is the future of our world, so it’s time to buy in and get on board.
My take: AI has traditionally been trained on anything publicly available online. Then came the lawsuits. Next comes the correction, which is licensing. Shout out to the Reddits of the world for all the money they’ll make.
My take: Just as Elon promised, Grok-1 is open source. "We are releasing the weights and architecture of our 314 billion parameter Mixture-of-Experts model."
