Technology news today is defined by the scale and politics of AI. In San Francisco, South Korea used a high-profile summit with Nvidia’s Jensen Huang and OpenAI’s Sam Altman to pitch itself as a trusted backbone for the AI boom, unveiling plans that officials say could drive $950 billion in chip and data-center cooperation. Samsung added to that momentum with a reported $200 billion supply pact with Broadcom through 2030, underscoring how memory, foundry capacity and advanced packaging are becoming the critical currency of the AI era. But the digital world’s influence is also colliding with culture and governance: Katy Perry publicly rebuked the White House for using “Firework” in a TikTok tied to U.S. strikes on Iran, calling the pairing of her song with violence unauthorized and a betrayal of its message. And in India, the arrest of an alleged mastermind in the Maharashtra TET paper leak highlights the darker side of technology-enabled networks.
