AI is moving faster than the news cycle can breathe, and today’s lineup proves it. We break down Anthropic’s monster GPU deal with SpaceX, the latest OpenAI model upgrades, and why Meta is staring down a lawsuit from some of the biggest names in publishing. Then we pivot to crypto, where Washington is finally getting serious about regulation, DeFi is reeling from a rumored coordinated exploit wave, and institutional money is pouring back into the market. Fast, sharp, and built for people who actually need to understand what’s happening — your morning briefing starts now.Legal Disclaimer:The views & opinions shared on the Podcast are our own & those of our guests.
