Summary
This episode covers the launch of the NASA-IBM Lunar Foundation Model, an open-source AI tool that outperforms existing systems in identifying lunar ice and craters. It also details a quiet $250 price hike for the Trump Mobile T1 phone, now costing $749, attributed to industry-wide RAM shortages. Finally, the show reports on a new agreement between Microsoft and the American Federation of Teachers, which legally prohibits using student data to train AI and requires human oversight for school AI decisions.
