Wimbledon, Amazon, Trump AI, & Karpathy

1/ AI at Wimbledon

“AI will take all your jobs!”

This might be true in the tennis world especially, where mere millimeters can determine match outcomes and champions.

3/ Anthropic and Menlo Ventures team up with $100 Million Fund

Game on! Anthropic and Menlo Ventures are teaming up to serve a whopping $100 million fund right into the court of AI startups. The catch? You've got to play with Anthropic's API and Claude models. But here's the sweet spot: early-stage startups can score $100,000, plus a double bonus of mentorship and Claude credits.

Not a bad deal.

4/ AI Order (Trump)

Trump campaign drafted a potential AI order.
