Good morning from OWITH.ai: the podcast that gives you only what's important to hear in AI and tech world.TSMC, Bosch, Infineon, and NXP have received approval for EUR5 billion in German subsidies for a joint venture to build a chip plant in Dresden. This venture, called European Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (ESMC), aims to increase Europe's share of global chip production to 20% by 2030. The plant will focus on industrial applications, particularly automotive, with plans to produce 480,000 silicon wafers annually by 2029. The European Commission's delayed decision on approving nearly EUR10 billion in subsidies for Intel's two new plants in Germany is a key factor in the region's chipmaking ambitions. Despite budget and business crises affecting subsidies and chip giants like Intel, there is momentum behind Europe's chip ambitions, with hopes for expansion into high-performance chips in the future. The chip industry is rapidly evolving, with new technology like adaptive deep brain implants showing promise in treating Parkinson's disease.AMD's acquisition of ZT Systems for $4.9 billion in cash and stock is a significant move in the chip maker's competition with Nvidia. The deal, which includes plans to sell ZT's manufacturing business post-acquisition, is seen as a strategic move to enhance AMD's competitiveness in the AI infrastructure market. Analysts believe the acquisition will help AMD better compete with Nvidia's integrated approach to AI solutions. The AI ecosystem is rapidly evolving, with M&A activity in the venture-backed AI startup space on the rise. AMD's deal with ZT Systems reflects broader trends in the AI landscape, where consolidation and innovation are happening at an accelerated pace. The acquisition aligns with AMD's strategy of positioning itself for future growth through organic and M&A investments. The deal signifies ongoing consolidation in the AI sector, highlighting the high demand for AI products and services.The text discusses Harley-Davidson's decision to distance itself from diversity, specifically in response to backlash from activist Robbie Starbuck. The company posted a statement on social media backing away from diversity initiatives to align better with its customers. The text questions whether brands like Harley are truly turning their backs on diversity or simply choosing to stop talking about it. It also mentions how miscommunication surrounding diversity initiatives can lead to backlash from customers. Additionally, the text highlights investor Carl Icahn agreeing to pay a $500,000 fine for failing to disclose billions borrowed against his company as collateral. In other news, it mentions that markets are bracing for Powell's speech, investor Kevin O'Leary criticizing Kamala Harris's economic platform, and various other topics such as Larry Page's advice for new grads and Alex Karp's hiring practices at Palantir. The text emphasizes the importance of addressing societal issues and engaging in dialogue to ensure progress and understanding.The text discusses the return of the weekly top picks column, which provides a review of news, stories, events, and research in the field of AI. The author explains the reasons for bringing back the column after a hiatus, including a desire to provide thoughtful analysis in a saturated market of AI news reviews. The format of the column will remain the same for now, but the author is open to suggestions for improvement. The week's highlights include discussions on Eric Schmidt's guide to AI startups, Trump's use of AI-generated images, Google's Gemini live assistant, a reporter resigning over fabricated AI quotes, and AI Twitter fatigue. The text also encourages readers to support the author's work by taking a premium subscription
