1.⚖️ California Cracks Down on AI Chatbots

Perplexity isn’t just giving better answers. It’s thinking bigger.
They’re teaming up with Motorola to put their AI into Razr phones. They’re also launching a brand-new browser called Comet next month.
With Google busy dealing with government lawsuits, this might be Perplexity’s best shot at stealing some attention.
This isn’t hype. It’s a serious challenge to the Android status quo.

2.🎨 Japan Pushes Back on AI Anime

Japan just drew a line in the sand over AI and anime.
The government officially asked OpenAI to stop using manga and anime styles without permission, calling them “irreplaceable cultural treasures.”
Minoru Kiuchi, Japan’s minister for IP and AI strategy, is leading the charge — urging OpenAI to tighten controls on how Sora and other models generate Japan-inspired art.
With global pressure mounting over creative rights, this isn’t just a local dispute. It’s the next big clash between AI innovation and artistic ownership.

3. 💻 Apple’s M5 Chip Redefines On-Device AI

Apple just unveiled the M5 chip, and it’s a monster built for the AI era.
It’s packing 4× more GPU power than the M4, and now every core has its own Neural Accelerator to speed up on-device AI. The CPU’s faster too — multitasking, gaming, and rendering all feel smoother than ever.
With 153 GB/s unified memory bandwidth, even the heaviest AI tools and graphics run instantly.
This isn’t just a speed bump. It’s Apple turning Macs and iPads into full-blown AI machines.
Would you upgrade for that kind of power?
