Good morning! It’s Monday, February twelfth, two thousand twenty-five. Welcome to another episode of AI Tech News Today, where we keep you updated with the hottest happenings in the world of artificial intelligence. 

OpenAI moves to develop its own AI chips by twenty twenty-six. OpenAI is set to launch its first custom AI chip, aiming for mass production by twenty twenty-six through collaboration with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company. A team of forty engineers, led by Richard Ho, a chip expert from Google, is focused on creating a design for both training and inference. However, critics are questioning whether OpenAI can compete with Google's and Amazon's much larger chip efforts.

Musk's ninety-seven billion dollar bid is M&A trolling that could derail OpenAI's fundraising. A consortium led by Elon Musk has made an unsolicited bid of ninety-seven point four billion dollars to acquire the nonprofit organization overseeing OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT. This hefty offer complicates OpenAI's plans to transition into a for-profit structure and raises ethical questions about compensation and nonprofit status. OpenAI's CEO, Sam Altman, has publicly dismissed the offer, asserting their mission is to build AI for humanity and that OpenAI is not for sale.

US and UK refuse to sign the Paris AI Action Summit statement. At an AI summit in Paris, sixty-one countries signed a declaration advocating for an open, inclusive, and ethical approach to artificial intelligence. However, the United States and the United Kingdom abstained, citing concerns about ideological biases and the risk of AI being used for authoritarian purposes. This puts the US's commitment to AI leadership at the forefront, as the administration distances itself from international governance frameworks.

We’ll bring you the latest news, so you won’t miss a beat! Until next time, keep exploring the fascinating world of artificial intelligence!

OpenAI Plans Custom AI Chip Production by 2026 Amid Controversial $97 Billion Bid from Musk

Charcuterie boards have become a popular choice for entertaining guests, offering an array of flavors, textures, and visually appealing arrangements. From savory meats to creamy cheeses, a well-balanced charcuterie board has something for everyone. One unexpected yet highly effective addition to elevate any charcuterie board is jalapeno kettle chips. Their bold, spicy flavor and satisfying crunch make them a perfect complement to the diverse items often found on a charcuterie spread. Here's how jalapeno kettle chips can enhance your charcuterie board and bring a unique twist to your next gathering.

1. Adding a Bold, Spicy Kick

Charcuterie boards are often centered around a mix of mild, creamy, and salty elements like cheeses, deli meats, and crackers. While these items are delicious, they can sometimes lack excitement in terms of flavor. Jalapeno kettle chips introduce a bold, spicy element that cuts through the richness of cheese and meats. The heat from the jalapenos contrasts beautifully with the savory flavors of prosciutto, salami, or other charcuterie staples, creating a more dynamic and interesting tasting experience. This unexpected spice adds a new layer of flavor, making the entire board feel more complex and exciting.

2. Complementing Creamy Cheeses

Creamy cheeses like brie, goat cheese, or camembert are common on charcuterie boards due to their smooth texture and mild taste. While delicious on their own, these cheeses can sometimes feel a bit one-dimensional. By adding jalapeno kettle chips to the mix, you introduce a crunchy texture and bold flavor that pairs perfectly with the creaminess of the cheese. The spice from the chips can cut through the richness of these cheeses, providing a balance that makes each bite more flavorful.

3. Pairing with Dips and Spreads

A good charcuterie board often includes a variety of dips and spreads, such as hummus, tapenade, or a tangy mustard. Jalapeno kettle chips serve as an ideal dipping vehicle, providing a sturdy crunch that can hold up to thick spreads and dips without breaking apart. The chips' robust flavor can also enhance the taste of the dips, adding an extra level of spiciness to contrast with the creamy or tangy elements of the spreads. Whether you’re pairing the chips with a smooth cheese dip or a savory tapenade, the combination is sure to impress your guests.

4. Balancing Rich Meats

Meats like salami, prosciutto, and chorizo are often included on charcuterie boards for their salty, savory flavors. While they are undoubtedly delicious, the richness of these meats can sometimes feel overwhelming when eaten in large quantities. Jalapeno kettle chips can offer a refreshing contrast by adding crunch and spice that cuts through the richness of the meats. The heat from the jalapenos provides a palate cleanser between bites of fatty meats, ensuring that your guests can enjoy the full range of flavors on the board without feeling weighed down by any one element.

5. Visual Appeal and Color Contrast

Charcuterie boards are not just about taste—they are also about creating an aesthetically pleasing presentation. The vibrant green hue of the jalapenos in the kettle chips adds a beautiful pop of color to the spread, making the board more visually appealing. The contrast of the bright green against the golden, crispy chips adds depth to the overall look of the charcuterie arrangement. Additionally, the irregular shapes and textures of the chips create a rustic, casual touch, making your board feel more inviting and dynamic.

Conclusion

Incorporating jalapeno kettle chips into your charcuterie board is a simple yet effective way to enhance both the flavor and visual appeal of your spread. Their bold, spicy flavor, crunchy texture, and versatility make them an ideal choice for balancing and complementing the other elements on the board, from creamy cheeses to rich meats.

How Jalapeno Kettle Chips Can Enhance Your Charcuterie Board?

Many in the UK seek comfort in the past, whether the Celtic twilight of Camelot, or pride in the innovations of the Victorian era. But peel away the fantasies and we're left with little - just overcooked roast beef and roundabouts. This is a rant about our obsession with the past - and obsessions in general, whether these are my own, or those of the nostalgic British public.

Unfortunately, the guys are off this week from our Underachievers Podcast series. However, we've got you covered, with another best all-time moments. We have three highlights, from 2020. Starting with the time, we first welcomed Matt Bevenour to the podcast. When the guys recap their game of mini golf and the rough use of their Mulligan. Next, we go to our first timeless debates segment. When Witmer, Jeff & Brian debated on which chip was best, potato or corn. Lastly, we have a long story time segment, sharing the many times we have dumbly injured ourselves over the years. Come along and hear our fourth installment of our best all-time moments!

The guys came straight from an early lunch to welcome the pod’s first ever lawyer – David Hunt – as their special guest. David specialises in the interface between companies and governments, so the conversation covered a wide range of topics, covering all parts of the globe. The US, Europe, and China inevitably featured strongly as the implications of recent developments on global trade were also explored, before they concluded with an analysis of Nvidia’s attempts to get into telecoms.

Just the lads this week so they get to be nice and self-indulgent over subject matter. There’s no getting past the trade war declared by the US on the rest of the world, which affects all industries, so Iain and Scott spend a good chunk of time exploring the concept of tariffs and macroeconomics in general before pondering how telecoms will be affected. They eventually move on to examine Huawei’s full-year 2024 numbers before concluding with a look at the pros and cons of virtual RAN.

El Rancho de Santa África es una hamburguesería gourmet que ha conquistado Madrid con su propuesta de cocina americana artesanal y un ambiente que evoca el espíritu del lejano oeste. Fundada en 2021 por los hermanos Montoro Briceño, la marca ha crecido rápidamente, contando actualmente con locales en Vallecas, Majadahonda y en la calle Basílica, cerca del Bernabéu 

El Rancho de Santa África: para los amantes de la carne

Chips was a seagull,
His best friend was Fish,
Together they made their own
Favourite dish.

A real set of villains,
Wired to steal,
Swooping and snatching
From humans mid-meal.

They could have been heroes,
This larcenous pair,
But there was a problem;
They just couldn’t share.

We sat kerbside, Crosskeys fish bar glow,
Salt on our fingers, stars startin’ to show.
Grease moons on napkins, ketchup like war paint,
You said, “Rate that one!” — I said, “Soggy saint.”

That one’s a comet — got vinegar trail,
This one’s a swordfish, but crispier tail.
We built galaxies outta leftover fryers,
Laid 'em out like constellations and chip-pyre pyres.

You laughed like a gull just won a prize,
Holding a D20 like fate in disguise.
I said, “You’re a pirate.” You said, “Too right.
Now hand me that flake before I start a fight.”

Remember the boy by the bins, feeding crumbs,
Thought he could tame 'em — brave, but dumb.
One swooped down, chip in beak, proud like a lord —
He saluted me mid-squawk. “Respect the horde.”

And then came your story — deadpan true:
About Fish and Chips, the thieving gull crew.
Gold crowns, boat party, glue on their heads,
Now stranded at sea on vinegar breads.

“They just couldn’t share,” I said with a grin,
“That's why teamwork’s where the magic begins.”
You said, “One chip left,” and passed it my way —
Said, “Heroes share dinner. Villains take the tray.”

Seasalt stars and takeaway skies,
Wrapped in paper where memory fries.
Every chip a wish, every squawk a song,
We’re still here, even if the bags are gone.
We ain’t rich, but we’re full — and that’s strong.

You said, “Life’s a menu, and some pick wine,”
But we’ve got chips, and that suits me fine.
Who needs steak or dishes with foam,
When salt and a stoop make a palace feel home?

I watched your eyes chase a plane,
Said, “You think the seagulls dream just the same?”
You said, “They dream of chips — or freedom, maybe,”
Then fed one your flake. I said, “You’re brave, baby.”

It nicked it fast, near took my hand!
You said, “That’s the risk of feedin’ the land.”
But we laughed like we’d written the night,
Paper grease maps in takeaway light.

Told you this world don’t owe us flair,
But it gives you one star for every stare.
And if you look right — not fancy, not far —
You’ll see your face glowing under chip shop stars.

So I’ll save my last chip just in case,
For the you that taught joy in every taste.
I’ll be a gull, a thief, a queen, a knight —
And every flavour will still taste like night.

Do seagulls wish on stars, Dad?
Or just wish for chips they never had?

Seasalt stars and takeaway skies,
Our myths wrapped up in chip bag lies.
We ain’t royal, but we reign this curb,
Grease-paper dreams, hearts never disturbed.
Hold onto heat. Let the birds be absurd.

“Fish was a gull, Chips was his mate —
Pinched a pasty from a plate.
Named ‘Birds of the Year’, then tricked at sea,
Now they float on fried destiny…”
“And Tima the Brave, Queen of Ketchup Bay,
Swore to avenge them, come what may.”

But poor Fish and Chips
Were weighed to the ground,
Their heads had been glued
As they had been crowned.

And try as they might
To get them unstuck,
Those crowns were on tight;
They had run out of luck.

And as they sat glumly
Each one had a wish,
Fish wanted chips,
And Chips wanted fish.

Once a week we get together in a studio somewhere in London to take the piss out of telecoms and technology for an hour or so.

We believe in the power of music to reach out to others, offering solace and a sense of belonging. Our lyrics explore the complexities of life, family, philosophy, spirituality, and the myriad emotions that define our journey. Through this music, we aim to shed light on the strategies of coping, the importance of resilience, and the unwavering belief in a brighter tomorrow.
