## Resource

OpenAI has unveiled its first-ever custom AI chip, built with Broadcom and given a name no one saw coming — and it signals a major shift in who controls the future of AI infrastructure. Meanwhile, a single congressional primary in Manhattan became a 27-million-dollar proxy war between pro-AI and anti-regulation forces, with OpenAI and Anthropic-linked money playing a starring role — and the result may preview a wave of AI-influenced elections ahead. On the global stage, China just reclaimed the top spot on the world's most prestigious supercomputer rankings for the first time since 2017, while Europe is pushing back against U.S. efforts to cut off chip exports. Anthropic's Claude is quietly embedding itself into corporate Slack channels as an always-on workplace assistant, even as CEO Dario Amodei reportedly loses favor inside the Trump White House. Researchers used AI to read a scroll that was buried and burned by Mount Vesuvius nearly two thousand years ago — without ever touching it. Meta relaunched its Creator Studio as an AI companion app, then had to pause an internal employee monitoring program after over 1,600 workers revolted. Figma dropped major AI-powered design updates that let you generate animations from plain text descriptions. And despite the ongoing panic about AI killing engineering jobs, new hiring data suggests engineers are actually growing as a share of new hires.
