Intel, which trails rivals in the high-performance AI chip market, has lost its Chief Technology Officer Sachin Katti, who previously led their AI efforts, as he departs to join OpenAI.

This leadership change is part of Tan’s restructuring efforts to regain competitiveness following setbacks in the foundry business. Read More

Tesla

Chaos at the house of Musk — Cybertruck boss Siddhant Awasthi, who started as an intern, and Model Y Chief Emmanuel Lamacchia quit back-to-back. The company reported record deliveries last quarter but faces a looming sales slump after the $7,500 tax credit expired. Shareholders recently approved Elon Musk’s $1 trillion pay package and a new resolution allowing Tesla to invest in xAI, even as competition from [BYD], now the world’s largest EV maker, continues to intensify.
