"Superintelligence Is Now In Sight" Mark Zuckerberg's Master Plan Revealed

Mark Zuckerberg announced Meta Super Intelligence Labs, a bold new effort to build personal superintelligence—AI tailored to help individuals achieve personal goals, not just automate work. He envisions future AI as wearable assistants (like smart glasses) that support creativity, relationships, and personal growth. 

While praising open-source in the past, Meta may now shift to a more closed approach. Backed by billions and top AI talent, Meta aims to compete directly with global AI leaders.

OpenAI is launching Stargate Norway, its first AI data center in Europe, located in Narvik. Powered by 100% renewable energy, it will host up to 100,000 NVIDIA GPUs by 2026 and support local startups, scientists, and developers. The project partners with Nscale and Aker to build sustainable, high-capacity infrastructure. This marks one of Europe’s biggest AI investments, helping grow regional AI ecosystems and strengthen sovereign AI capabilities.

Why It Matters

  1. Sovereign Compute: Supports Europe’s push for AI independence from U.S. and China.

  2. Scalable Infrastructure: Massive GPU deployment will fuel next-gen model training and AI research.

  3. Sustainable AI: Sets a new standard by running entirely on renewable energy.

China's cybersecurity agency has launched a surprise investigation into Nvidia over its H20 AI chip, developed specifically for the Chinese market under U.S. export restrictions. The probe centers on alleged security risks, including possible "loopholes and backdoors." The move comes shortly after Nvidia said it planned to resume H20 shipments. This raises new tensions between China and U.S. tech companies amid ongoing chip and AI rivalry.

Why It Matters

  1. Escalates Tech Tensions: Highlights rising distrust and regulatory pressure between China and U.S. AI firms.

  2. AI Supply Chain Risk: Threatens Nvidia’s ability to serve the Chinese market—a major AI buyer.

  3. Regulatory Precedent: May signal future scrutiny of foreign AI hardware by Chinese authorities.

Apple CEO Tim Cook says the company is open to acquiring AI startups and is moving more staff to focus on AI. Despite trailing rivals in the AI race, Apple is investing heavily to enhance Siri and embed AI across its products. It has discussed partnerships with OpenAI and Perplexity. While AI development lags, Apple’s earnings remain strong, with iPhone, Mac, and services revenue all showing double-digit growth.

Why It Matters

  1. Apple’s AI Catch-Up: Signals Apple’s serious push to close its AI gap with rivals.

  2. Acquisition Potential: Opens doors for major AI startup buyouts that could shift industry dynamics.

  3. Siri Revamp: Reinforces the trend of integrating large language models into personal assistants.

🧠RESEARCH

ScreenCoder is a new system that turns UI designs into working website code more accurately. It breaks the task into three steps—understanding visuals, planning layout, and writing code. This modular setup beats current one-step tools. It also trains itself using synthetic examples, leading to better results in accuracy and code quality.

BANG is a new tool that lets users break 3D objects into parts naturally—like pulling them apart in your mind. It uses AI to animate how objects “explode” into pieces while keeping their shape and meaning. With simple prompts, users can control which parts to split, aiding design, 3D printing, and creative workflows.

Falcon-H1 is a new series of AI models that mix Transformer and State Space architectures to boost both speed and accuracy. These hybrid models outperform much larger ones—like Qwen and LLaMA—despite being smaller and using less data. Falcon-H1 also supports long inputs, multilingual tasks, and is fully open-source.
