Microsoft just issued a warning that reframes the AI race: outside the West, China is gaining fast through scale, affordability, and distribution in emerging markets. Then Apple confirms AI is now an alliance game by choosing Google’s Gemini as the foundation for the next Siri era, while still keeping OpenAI integrated for certain Siri and Apple Intelligence queries. Anthropic pushes Claude into real agent territory with Cowork, letting it work directly inside your Mac files. Manus brings the same idea into the real world by turning in-person conversations into tasks and deliverables. 1X upgrades NEO with a video-pretrained world model that predicts actions through rollouts. And finally, Google makes a huge AI commerce move with a universal protocol that lets AI agents buy products across retailers and payment systems.
