Google's threat intel team says that they have caught the very first AI-built zero-day exploit out in the wild,

0:07.0

and how they found it was some hallucinated CVSS scores. We'll get into all of that.

0:12.0

Before, though, we got to talk about Satya Nadella, who just took the stand in the Elon Musk versus Open AI lawsuit,

0:18.4

and we get some numbers that we've never seen before about Open AI,

0:21.4

which are fascinating. In addition to all of that, we also have the Robin Hood co-founder that just

0:26.8

raised $275 million to put rockets and data centers in orbit by 2028 in direct competition

0:32.5

to what SpaceX is doing. And Open AI is dropping $4 billion on a dedicated enterprise unit. There's so much to get

0:39.9

into. Let's dive in. First of all, the European Commission has just opened direct talks with

0:45.2

Open AI and Anthropic about how the AI Act applies to frontier models, routers, and AI chat

0:51.5

daily. Both were talking about this earlier today. Brussels basically is

0:55.8

talking to the two US labs. And it's kind of interesting. There's obviously a ton of different

1:00.0

AI companies, but if you want to really talk about where the usage of AI is today, I mean,

1:04.4

you could throw Gemini in there. Maybe Grox got a little bit. But it's basically Anthropic Open

1:09.5

AI and Gemini kind of behind both of those two. So if Brussels wants to talk to someone, they're going to talk to the two biggest firms. And that's where they're going to get the biggest impact, basically. In, you know, with all of these conversations, the craziest part to me, which is something that I think a lot of people that are kind of anti-regulation have been saying for a very long time, and it's a very good point, is that regulation is very slow. And the AI act from the EU, just to like put into context how old this thing is, this was written before chat GPT5 and Claude Opus 4.6 existed. I think most of the regulators know this. Hennat Verkuen, the EU's tech chief has actually been talking about this as well. So I think they're all very aware of it.

1:47.8

Basically, the Euse Tech Chief, has actually been talking about this as well. So I think they're all very aware of it. Basically, the problem is with a lot of these top of the line, a lot of the frontier models, right? I think the rules need to be changed a little bit. Otherwise, they're going to be directed at the wrong things. They actually need input from Open AI and Anthropic when they're writing the spec

2:01.1

and they're writing like how do these rules apply, which before it felt a lot more like a bunch of

2:06.4

bureaucrats in a room with some ideas. So the good spin on this is like, look, they're actually

2:11.2

talking to the industry, which I do think is important to, you know, understand what needs to be

2:14.9

regulated, what a lot of people are complaining about. specifically, you have people like Casey Newton, who's basically just saying that this is regulatory capture. The two biggest labs are going to start writing all of the rules. That's going to make it harder for the smaller labs in the open source teams to actually follow all of them. So it'll be interesting to see how that shakes out. The next thing we want to talk about is Cowboy Space. This is a new company. It's kind of fun. It's Bajou Bot. It's the Robin Hood

2:41.1

co-founder. And he just closed a $275 million series B for his company, Cowboy Space. And they did it

2:47.5

at a $2 billion post money valuation. Their plan is essentially to build and own rockets to put data centers in orbit, exactly what Elon Musk is going to be doing with SpaceX, what he's been talking about. This is crazy, though, because for them, they have to actually, SpaceX is obviously very far long, I guess is what I'm trying to say. SpaceX has been doing rockets. They perfected this for a very long time. And of course, yeah, $275 million sounds like a lot of money. But these are insanely expensive infrastructure to build, building the rockets, building the data centers. They had index ventures who led the round and then they had breakthrough energy and construct IVP and SAIC. We're all in this. The numbers on all of this is pretty

3:25.5

crazy. Each satellite is supposed to mass 20 to 25,000 kilograms, and that delivers one
