Summary
OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google DeepMind confirm weeks of AI safety coordination Hyperscaler AI spending could top $5 trillion as revenues lag behind Salesforce launches Koa, its first reasoning model built on Nvidia's Nemotron A Eye on AI - 12:31 PM This briefing leads with the biggest strategic story in AI: OpenAI's global policy chief Chris Lehane confirmed the company has been working with rivals Anthropic and Google DeepMind on AI safety for weeks, following Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei's essay calling for the industry to slow frontier AI development. The coordination raises antitrust questions and runs against President Trump's dismissal of safety concerns. On the economics front, MIT Technology Review highlights a trillion-dollar buildout: hyperscalers like Alphabet, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta, and Oracle are projected to spend more than $5 trillion on data centers over four years while AI revenues this year hover around $150-$200 billion — a gap Wharton's Jessica Wachter says risks bankruptcy if productivity gains don't materialize. In enterprise tech, Salesforce debuted Koa, its first reasoning model, built on Nvidia's open-weight Nemotron and trained on synthetic data to handle sales and customer support. China news includes Dreame reportedly losing around 10,000 employees. In Everyday Life, Meta's new Meta One bundles go global starting at $7.99 per month with extra AI usage, SimpliSafe launched its AI-powered Active Guard video doorbell, and Shanghai's Twoo introduces an AI designed to mediate between two people in a relationship.
