Nvidia CEO says the company is in a no-win situation amid AI-bubble chatter, leaked meeting reveals
As Nvidia goes, so goes the economy right now. So it would seem we’re all in a no-win situation.

Gaming Exec Says That “Gen Z Loves AI Slop”
It will be interesting to see how AI slop influences the rising generations. As of now, it does seem like many don’t seem to mind. But how normalized will it become, and will we become completely desensitized to it?
In a recent tweet, interactive video game company Genvid CEO and former Square Enix director Jacob Navok said that “for all the anti-AI sentiment we’re seeing in various articles, it appears consumers generally do not care.”
Why Product Managers Should Stop Being So Helpful
As product managers, we often feel like it’s our job to be the most helpful. We often do everything. But that can actually hinder building an excellent product.

Grok says Elon Musk is better than basically everyone, except Shohei Ohtani
We get to continue to see the problems with AI being overly influenced by the worst parts of humanity.
Elon Musk’s Grok really, really loves its creator. Since this week’s release of Grok 4.1, X users have circulated posts and screenshots that show Grok vastly overestimating Musk’s abilities — like when Grok was asked about how Musk would perform as a professional football player.

AI may improve productivity, but it could come at a cost to the psychological safety of employees.
Artificial intelligence is changing how many companies operate, but its impact on workers’ mental health is not fully understood. A new study published in Humanities and Social Sciences Communications suggests that adopting AI in organizations may negatively affect employee well-being by reducing psychological safety, which can in turn contribute to depression.
