Amazon Brings AI Scene Jump to Prime Video:

Amazon just dropped something wild for Fire TV users. You can now tell Alexa Plus to find any movie scene you're thinking about, and it'll take you straight there. No more awkward fast-forwarding while your friends wait.

Things to Know:

• How It Works: The feature uses generative AI to understand whatever you throw at it. Character names, famous quotes, or just describing what happens. Tell it "jump to the boulder chase in Raiders" and boom, you're there.

• The Tech Behind It: Amazon built this on Bedrock using models like Amazon Nova and Anthropic Claude. It analyzes Prime Video's X-Ray data, captions, and visuals to pinpoint exact moments.

• What You Can Say: Try commands like "jump to the scene where John McClane says Come out to the coast." You don't even need to mention Die Hard. Alexa Plus figures out the movie, finds the timestamp, and starts playing within seconds.

This only works with Prime Video movies included in your membership or ones you've bought or rented. Amazon plans to add more titles and eventually expand to TV shows. For now, it's movies only.

Meta Grabs Apple’s Design Genius Alan Dye:

Meta just pulled off one of the biggest talent grabs in recent tech history. Alan Dye, who spent the last decade shaping Apple's entire interface design vision, is now heading to Reality Labs. This isn't just a hire, it's a statement.

Things to Know:

• The Big Move: Alan Dye ran Apple's user interface team for ten years. Now he's joining Meta to lead a brand new creative studio inside Reality Labs.

• What He'll Do: Dye will focus on improving AI features across Meta's consumer devices, including smart glasses and VR headsets. He reports directly to CTO Andrew Bosworth, which tells you how important this is.

• The New Studio: Zuckerberg announced a creative hub that brings together design, fashion, and technology teams. They're calling intelligence "a new design material" and want to build products where hardware and software actually feel seamless.

Meta has been recruiting aggressively from rivals, even poaching OpenAI researchers this summer. Zuckerberg supposedly delivered homemade soup to an OpenAI employee during recruitment, which sounds ridiculous but apparently happened.

Anthropic Prepares Lawyers for Mega IPO:

The company behind Claude just hired Wilson Sonsini to start IPO preparations. They're eyeing a 2026 debut that could become one of the biggest public offerings in history. Things are moving fast in the AI race.

Things to Know:

• Funding Plans: The company wants to raise money at a valuation exceeding $300 billion. That's a massive jump from their September fundraising round, which valued them at $183 billion.

• Legal Groundwork: Wilson Sonsini came on board to guide the IPO process from start to finish. The law firm has advised Anthropic since 2022, so they know the business inside out.

• Banking Talks: Anthropic has started conversations with investment banks but hasn't picked an underwriter yet. They're checking off an internal list of requirements before making the final decision.

This IPO could reshape the AI landscape and give everyday investors access to cutting-edge technology. The 2026 timeline suggests Anthropic wants everything perfect before going public. Will they beat OpenAI to the finish line?

The AI Race Just Went Nuclear — Own the Rails.

Meta, Google, and Microsoft just reported record profits — and record AI infrastructure spending:

• Meta boosted its AI budget to as much as $72 billion this year.

• Google raised its estimate to $93 billion for 2025.

• Microsoft is following suit, investing heavily in AI data centers and decision layers.

While Wall Street reacts, the message is clear: AI infrastructure is the next trillion-dollar frontier.

RAD Intel already builds that infrastructure — the AI decision layer powering marketing performance for Fortune 1000 brands. Backed by Adobe, Fidelity Ventures, and insiders from Google, Meta, and Amazon, the company has raised $50M+, grown valuation 4,900%, and doubled sales contracts in 2025 with seven-figure contracts secured.
