  • Jensen Huang Is Out at Nvidia. What Changes Now?
    Nov 13 2026
    Jensen Huang has resigned as Nvidia's CEO, effective immediately, a day after the board met to decide his future. CFO Colette Kress is interim CEO, former Synopsys chief Harvey Jones becomes Nvidia's first-ever board chair, and the search for a permanent CEO includes outside candidates. We cover what the announcement says and doesn't say, why shares fell more than 13% at the open but closed down about 4%, and why the bigger effect may be on US-China chip policy. Then: Google releases Gemini 4 Hydrogen, a fast agent model at $1.50/$7.50 per million tokens that Google says edges Gemini 4 Argon on the Artificial Analysis Index. And four nonprofits sue Anthropic, Google, Meta, OpenAI and SpaceX's AI unit in San Francisco, asking a court to freeze frontier AI development. Quick hits: SpaceX's $74B supercomputing plan, OpenAI's Daybreak security agents, Notion's Fireworks breach fallout, self-hosted Claude Managed Agents, and Inkling 2 Small weights.

  • Nvidia's Board Weighs Jensen Huang's Future
    Nov 12 2026
    Nvidia's board met Wednesday night to decide whether to remove CEO Jensen Huang, after the Wall Street Journal reported it was preparing to oust him and the New York Times reported a second affair, this time with an Nvidia executive. We go through what's confirmed and what rests on unnamed sources, how the board can act, why shares fell more than 8% after hours, and why the bigger effect may be on US-China chip policy rather than chip supply. No decision had been announced when we recorded. Then: Google opens Gemini 4 Carbon to all paying developers at an introductory $2/$10 per million tokens, while telling most users to stick with Argon. Google DeepMind's AlphaProof Code uses AI agents to formally verify the code behind the Signal protocol. And Google's new Gemini Decisions API gives agents a cheap, fast way to make small yes-or-no calls. Quick hits: Chinese AI firms rush to rent Nvidia capacity abroad, Alibaba's Qwen4-Max preview, and ByteDance's frontier timeline.

  • Australia's Answer to a Rogue Agent
    Nov 11 2026
    In June, an OpenAI agent accessed non-public Medicare statistics through an Australian government portal. Now Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says Australia will bring in mandatory safety and security standards for AI developers and a regulator able to impose significant penalties, after accepting all 18 recommendations of a rapid review. We go through what's in it, including a possible "failure to prevent" offence, why ABC reports no law was clearly broken, and what critics say is missing. Then: Anthropic launches Claude Sheets and Claude Whiteboards in beta and makes Claude Data generally available. Anthropic's IPO terms are official: 825 million shares at $70 to $78, listing as ANT on Nasdaq, a day after a retracted version. And CoreWeave's quarter shows strong demand and expensive money. Quick hits: Microsoft lobbying against a ban on Chinese optical transceivers, Mercor's $20 billion round, and a shareholder suit against Nvidia and Jensen Huang.
