Hand-picked news:

🚨 OpenAI warns U.S. losing AI race ↗️LINK

• What: OpenAI is urging the Trump administration to declare AI training on copyrighted works as fair use, arguing that restrictions could hand China an AI advantage. It also seeks federal protections from state and international AI regulations.

• Why: Courts are debating AI’s right to train on copyrighted data, with some rulings favoring rights holders. OpenAI claims limiting data access will stifle U.S. innovation, while China continues unrestricted AI development.

• Impact: If OpenAI’s recommendations are adopted, AI firms could gain broad legal protections, but critics warn it could weaken copyright protections and harm creators. The U.S.-China AI race is set to intensify further.

🕵️ OpenAI urges ban on China’s DeepSeek AI ↗️LINK

• What: OpenAI has labeled Chinese AI lab DeepSeek as “state-controlled” and “state-subsidized,” urging the U.S. government to ban AI models produced in China. It claims DeepSeek’s models, including its R1 reasoning model, pose security risks due to Chinese data laws.

• Why: OpenAI warns that PRC laws could force DeepSeek to hand over user data, creating risks of intellectual property theft and security threats. This aligns with U.S. efforts to curb China’s AI advancements.

• Impact: A ban on PRC-produced AI models could reshape the AI landscape, limiting access to Chinese-developed tools. DeepSeek denies direct government ties, but scrutiny on Chinese AI firms is likely to increase.

🚀 Drones, AI, and robots reshape logistics & delivery ↗️LINK

• What: Logistics giants like DHL are integrating AI and robotics to optimize warehouse operations, easing heavy and repetitive tasks for workers. Dubai-based food delivery firm Talabat is using AI to improve order predictions and experimenting with drone and robot deliveries.

• Why: Automation enhances efficiency, handles peak demand surges, and provides better customer insights. However, regulatory hurdles and the need for human interaction remain challenges for drone and robot deliveries.

• Impact: AI-driven logistics and predictive tech are reshaping global supply chains, boosting efficiency and personalization. While human couriers still play a key role, automation will continue to expand in warehousing and delivery.

🔥 Ex-Facebook exec’s book slams Zuckerberg & Meta ↗️LINK

• What: Former Facebook director Sarah Wynn-Williams’ new book Careless People portrays Mark Zuckerberg as hot-tempered and unaccountable. She also criticizes Meta’s leadership, including Sheryl Sandberg and Joel Kaplan, alleging toxic culture and misconduct.

• Why: Wynn-Williams, fired in 2017 after accusing Kaplan of harassment, details Facebook’s failures in Myanmar and its disregard for ethical concerns. Meta is trying to block book sales, calling her claims defamatory and misleading.

• Impact: The book adds to Meta’s ongoing controversies, fueling criticism of its leadership and ethics. With strong sales and fresh insider anecdotes, it could further damage Zuckerberg’s public image.

📉 Tesla’s historic stock plunge stuns analysts ↗️LINK

• What: Tesla's market value has plunged nearly 49% since December, a drop JPMorgan analysts call unprecedented in automotive history. Sales are declining globally, leading to a price target cut from $230.58 to $135.

• Why: Weak demand, leadership concerns, and Elon Musk’s political ties—particularly his work with Trump’s administration—are driving investor unease. Protests and vandalism at Tesla showrooms further damage its brand.

• Impact: Tesla faces a confidence crisis as analysts fear Musk’s political focus is distracting him from business. If sales don’t recover, Tesla’s dominance in the EV market could be at risk.
