Did Apple Get AI Spending Right?, Microsoft & OpenAI’s New Reality, Where’s Stargate?

M.G. Siegler of Spyglass is back for our monthly tech news discussion. Siegler joins us to discuss whether Apple made the right decision to hold off on spending a mid-sized country GDP worth of money on AI infrastructure, and whether the company's restraint will continue under incoming CEO John Ternus. We also cover OpenAI and Microsoft scrapping their "AGI" claude and whether Microsoft should've agreed to let OpenAI work with Amazon. We round off with a state of Stargate and where the risk is in the AI buildout. Tune in for a high-energy conversation about AI and tech's most pressing issues. ——— Enjoying Big Technology Podcast?
