1/ Hedge Fund Bets the House on AI
It was only a matter of time before AI came for consulting and finance. We’ve all seen how McKinsey-style analyses can be automated by LLMs.
Will England just pivoted his $10B AUM hedge fund to go all in on AI with a firm-wide email:

2/ UAE Goes Full Send on AI
The UAE isn’t dabbling in AI; they’re going all in.

America’s nursing shortage is very real, and Foxconn’s betting AI robots can help.
They’re not just for factories anymore. These bots will support overworked staff and potentially reshape the healthcare experience. Physical AI entering the hospital is a huge moment.
