1. The White House announces a “Manhattan Project for AI”: Outlined by an executive order, the Genesis Project is a national effort to accelerate AI-driven innovation. The project — run by the Department of Energy — aims to build an integrated AI model trained on federal data, while also creating jobs and reducing energy costs. It’s being compared to the Manhattan Project and the Apollo program. Watch the release video here.

2. Google is starting to emerge as the leading AI company, challenging both OpenAI and Nvidia: Last week, Google’s Gemini 3.0 model outperformed all leading models in key benchmarks. This week, Google is reportedly in talks to supply Meta with AI chips worth billions — a direct challenge to semiconductor giant Nvidia. See how Nvidia responded.

3. OpenAI adjusts its data hosting rules and adds voice to chats: OpenAI now lets enterprises store data in specific regions to meet local regulatory requirements. The AI leader also integrated ChatGPT Voice directly into chats, making voice conversations more seamless. Both updates are rolling out now. See how the new ChatGPT Voice works here.
