I discussed the new $100 billion (not $500B) #StargateProject announced by private companies: @OpenAI, @Oracle, @SoftBank with president Trump in White House. See @NUGlobalNews article highlighting the plan’s potential, research in #health and #lifesciences, and more. Other than the principles and UAE's MGX, how does it grow to $500B? Read:

why did #AppleAI 's underwhelming #AI announcement pretty much features only a partnership with OpenAI Chat Bots ? is this a smart move or @Apple covering missing capabilities? Article by @Northeastern's @NUGlobalNews - what do you think?
Is @Apple's new partnership with @OpenAI an admission of weakness with Apple's digital assistant, Siri? Or is it genius?🧐 Executive Director, @usamaf spoke with @NUGlobalNews' @cesareo_r about the news, saying Apple is playing catch-up with this move:

It takes courage @SenSanders to speak #truth to power. And you say it clearly, eloquently, and accurately to a #cogress and a @POTUS who are off their reality - you do represent a majority of Americans and I hope the U.S. Government wakes up and listens to you! Thank you.
An attack on Rafah would make the unspeakable situation in Gaza even worse. The U.S. cannot continue to provide more bombs and artillery shells to support Netanyahu’s war machine.

A surgeon of international renown, a dedicated medical worker, killed in Israeli detention - his crime: he refused to abndon his family, patients, and people in Gaza - the entire medical community should be outraged! What a shame...
“Rest in eternal power and peace, Dr Adnan Al Bursch, who was killed while in Israeli detention. Thank you to the many British doctors and health care workers for holding a vigil to remember our heroes and calling for #accountability.
