As global leaders gather in Davos for the annual World Economic Forum (WEF), senior economists are offering reassurance to investors watching the rapid rise in AI spending. According to Christian Keller, Head of Economics Research at Barclays Investment Bank, the current surge in AI investment appears fundamentally different from past market manias and is unlikely to end in a sudden collapse.

Artificial intelligence is changing the food and beverage industry faster than many people expected. What once depended heavily on human experience, long testing periods, and slow decision-making is now becoming smarter, faster, and more accurate. AI is no longer just a support tool. It is becoming a core system that helps companies create better products, reduce waste, and respond quickly to market changes.

The European Commission has opened an inquiry into serious reports that Grok, an artificial intelligence tool linked to Elon Musk’s social media platform X, may be generating sexualized images that resemble children. The issue has raised alarm across Europe, with officials stressing that such content is illegal and completely unacceptable under EU law.

The world is experiencing an artificial intelligence boom, but not everyone is benefiting equally. Companies that build AI models often struggle to make profits, while hardware suppliers like Nvidia are reaping huge rewards. Nvidia’s market value recently surpassed $5 trillion, showing that the real gains are going to those providing the chips, data centers, and infrastructure that make AI possible.

Rivian is taking a more hands-on role in the future of vehicle autonomy, with plans to design and manufacture its own silicon chips as part of a broader push toward AI-driven driving systems. The strategy was outlined on December 11 by Chief Executive RJ Scaringe during the company’s first Autonomy and AI Day, held at its headquarters in Palo Alto.

Nvidia has cemented its position at the center of the AI boom, supplying the high-performance graphics processors that power the world’s most advanced AI systems.

New technologies are changing the world at a fast pace, and with every big invention comes a new need for special materials. Today, generative AI is the technology gaining the most attention. It is used for writing, creating images, analyzing information, and helping people work faster. But behind all the excitement, there is a quiet but growing issue: AI and other modern inventions depend on minerals and materials that are not easy to find.

Sources close to the White House say Trump’s administration is drafting an executive order that would limit how states regulate AI. The move would represent a significant escalation in a long-running dispute over who should lead the development of rules for AI systems between Washington and state capitals.
