Trump’s AI Agenda Leaked on GitHub

The Article: Trump Administration's AI.gov to Launch in July

AI.gov, launching on July 4, will centralize AI tools for U.S. federal agencies, led by Thomas Shedd. It aims to automate tasks and connect agencies to AI models from OpenAI, Google, and others.

Key Points:

  • Mission: AI.gov will help federal agencies integrate AI to streamline operations.

  • Features: Includes a chatbot, API for AI models, and "CONSOLE" for monitoring AI usage.

  • Concerns: Experts warn about the security risks of handling sensitive data with AI. (source)

Why It Matters:

AI.gov will advance AI adoption in government, but raises concerns about data security and employee impact.

Should the U.S. government prioritize AI adoption even if it raises privacy concerns?

AI Highlights of the Week

  • Musk’s Lawsuit Threats Bring Ads Back to X

    X used lawsuit threats to pressure companies like Verizon and Ralph Lauren into resuming ad spending. Verizon pledged $10M after being threatened.

    Amazon increased spending after negotiations involving unpaid cloud bills, while Lego and Pinterest resisted and were sued.

    X’s legal case is weak but works as a pressure tactic. Ad revenue is expected to grow in 2025, but remain below pre-Musk levels.

  • Meta’s V-JEPA 2 Sees the Future Literally

    Meta’s V-JEPA 2 is a new video-trained world model with state-of-the-art visual understanding, prediction, and zero-shot robot planning.

    Built on the JEPA framework, it helps AI agents understand, predict, and plan actions in physical environments. Meta also released three benchmarks to test video-based reasoning.

  • Amazon and Walmart Launching Their Own Stablecoins

    Amazon and Walmart are reportedly exploring US dollar-backed stablecoins, potentially reshaping how customers pay and reducing reliance on traditional banks.

    Though not confirmed, such stablecoins could cut transaction costs and streamline payments, following Shopify’s move to integrate USDC by late 2025.

  • Barbie Meets ChatGPT: Mattel Partners with OpenAI

    Mattel and OpenAI have formed a strategic partnership to develop AI-driven play experiences based on Mattel’s iconic brands like Barbie, Hot Wheels, and Fisher-Price.

    The collaboration emphasizes safety, privacy, and innovation, with Mattel also integrating ChatGPT Enterprise to enhance product development and creativity. Their first AI product is expected later this year.

  • Google’s First-Ever Chief AI Architect: Koray Kavukcuoglu

    Google has named Koray Kavukcuoglu, DeepMind’s CTO, as its new Chief AI Architect and SVP, reporting directly to CEO Sundar Pichai. He will lead AI product strategy and integration, moving from London to Mountain View.

    The appointment highlights Google’s push to monetize AI amid rising $75B infrastructure investments and internal cost-cutting. The move follows recent AI launches and Google's ongoing race with Meta, Microsoft, Amazon, and OpenAI.

AMD & OpenAI Unite to Outpace Nvidia

The Article: AMD Unveils AI Server, Partners with OpenAI

AMD announced the Helios AI server, featuring 72 MI400 chips, to compete with Nvidia’s top servers. OpenAI is working with AMD on the MI450 chips to enhance AI infrastructure.

Key Points:

  • Server Launch: Helios will have 72 MI400 chips, challenging Nvidia’s NVL72 servers.

  • OpenAI Partnership: OpenAI collaborates with AMD on the MI450 chips for AI applications.

  • AMD’s Strategy: AMD focuses on open collaboration, contrasting Nvidia's proprietary tech.

Why It Matters:

AMD’s new AI servers aim to challenge Nvidia’s dominance and reshape the AI hardware market.
