Intel AI Chief Leaves to Join OpenAI Hardware:

Sachin Katti, Intel's Chief Technology and AI Officer, just made a career move that's raising eyebrows across Silicon Valley. He's leaving Intel after only six months in his new role to join OpenAI. The timing couldn't be more awkward for Intel.

Things to Know:

  • The Move: Katti will focus on building OpenAI's compute infrastructure to support their artificial general intelligence research. OpenAI President Greg Brockman announced the hire, emphasizing Katti's role in powering their AGI mission.

  • The Backstory: Katti was promoted to CTO and Chief AI Officer less than eight months ago under new CEO Lip-Bu Tan. He spent nearly 15 years at Stanford University before joining Intel, bringing expertise in networking and distributed computing.

  • Intel's Problem: CEO Lip-Bu Tan will now directly oversee Intel's AI efforts without a structured succession plan. This comes after Intel missed its modest $500 million revenue target for AI chips last year, falling behind Nvidia and AMD.

Intel has experienced multiple executive departures recently, including its Global Channel Chief and VP of Data Center AI. Top AI talent is leaving established firms for dedicated AI startups that offer focused environments and lucrative packages.

The result: faster resolutions, 24/7 coverage, and a unified system for every customer call, whether it starts on telephony or WhatsApp.

China’s Open-Source Coding Models Beat Claude:

The AI coding wars just got spicy. Chinese companies are dropping open source models that match or beat Claude's performance. And they're doing it at a fraction of the cost. Anthropic might want to check their rearview mirror.

Things to Know:

  • Cost Advantage: Chinese models like MiniMax M2 charge just 30 cents per million input tokens versus Claude's three dollars. That's a 90% price cut with similar performance and faster speeds.

  • Open Source Power: Models like Qwen3 Coder and Kimi K2 are fully open source under MIT licenses. Developers can run them locally, tweak the code, and skip API fees entirely while getting Claude-level results.

  • Benchmark Battles: MiniMax M2 scores 69.4% on SWE-Bench Verified and beats both Claude Sonnet 4.5 and GPT-5 on Terminal-Bench. Qwen3 Coder grabbed 20% market share in just weeks, eating into Claude's dominance.

This isn't just a pricing war anymore. China's efficiency-first approach is proving that you don't need massive budgets to build frontier AI. The real question now is how long the proprietary model folks can hold their ground.

Google Replaces Assistant With Gemini on TV:

Your TV just got a whole lot smarter. Google's rolling out Gemini to replace Assistant on the Google TV Streamer. Think of it as your couch potato companion finally learning to have actual conversations.

Things to Know:

  • The Big Switch: Google's swapping out Assistant for Gemini on its TV Streamer. This means your remote's microphone button now connects to something that actually understands context and nuance instead of just basic commands.

  • Relationship Goals: Ask it to find shows that both you and your partner will enjoy. Gemini can handle questions like "I like dramas, but my wife likes comedies, what should we watch?" It's basically couples therapy through algorithms.

  • Beyond Binge Watching: This isn't just about entertainment anymore. You can ask Gemini to explain volcanic eruptions to your third grader or walk you through recipes. Your TV's now a smart home hub that talks back intelligently.

Rolling out over the next few weeks for users 18 and older. It's already available on Walmart's Onn 4K Pro device too. Google's slowly replacing Assistant everywhere, and your living room's next on the list.
