What’s New Today: Nvidia resumes H20 GPU sales in China and introduces a compliant RTX Pro model for AI applications.
Fast-Track Insights: SpaceX invests $2 billion in xAI, boosting Elon Musk’s AI ambitions across Starlink, Tesla robots, and the X social media platform.
Here’s a quick rundown of the biggest tech headlines making waves today. Let's dive into the day's top tech stories, from H20 GPU chip sales in China to a decline in entry-level IT jobs in India.
Nvidia aims to resume sales of its H20 GPU chips in China, pending approval from the US government. At the same time, the company has launched a new RTX Pro GPU designed to comply with Chinese regulations, specifically targeting industries such as AI in logistics and smart factories. CEO Jensen Huang recently met with U.S. and Chinese officials to discuss ways to enhance cooperation in AI. Following the last export restrictions, Nvidia appears to be making significant efforts to adapt to the evolving global regulatory landscape.
SpaceX is investing $2 billion in Elon Musk’s AI company xAI, making it the first major external funding, with SpaceX contributing nearly half of xAI's recent $5 billion equity raise. The funds are to be used for Grok AI's implementation in Musk's companies - Starlink, Tesla, and X. Also, xAI wants to grow its Colossus supercomputer and AI tools. The merger of xAI and X makes Musk's empire one of the most powerful AI-driven tech platforms.
The once-thriving Indian IT industry is experiencing a significant decline in entry-level job opportunities due to AI automation and outdated education systems. Companies like Wipro and Infosys have reduced their hiring of fresh graduates, while Global Capability Centers are looking for candidates with high skills and domain knowledge. As a result, many engineering graduates are facing unemployment due to mismatches between industry needs and their education. However, there is hope for better prospects in AI-related jobs, especially if the curriculum is updated and students approach their future with a positive mindset.
Gemini Pro and Ultra users can now generate 8-second AI videos from still images via the Veo 3 model. During its rollout, it is being made available for both PC and mobile. Users must upload a photo and provide comprehensive prompts describing motion, setting, camera angle, and sound. Each output is watermarked with SynthID to maintain transparency. This feature reinvents storytelling into a cinematic experience, making AI video creation within reach, hands-on, and easy to use for subscribers.
A contrarian AI model selects three meme coins from the well: Fartcoin, Bonk, and Popcat, viewed as breakout candidates in late 2025. Each coin demonstrates an underlying fundamental neglected by the mainstream: community-oriented governance, transparent tokenomics, limited dilution, or actual use in an ecosystem. These tokens virtually go from DAO systems to reflexive burn mechanisms, allowing some form of strength under these meme facades. Speculative by nature, their on-chain traction and asymmetric prospects rank them as high-risk-high-reward candidates, turning away from common market hype.
