Hand-picked News

Healthcare just got the Amazon treatment and pediatric clinics might feel the heat.

  • Amazon Clinic now covers kids aged 2–17, offering virtual visits for colds, allergies, pink eye, and more.

  • No subscription needed: $49 per visit, available in 48 states, with prescriptions sent to any pharmacy.

  • Parents fill out a quick intake form, then connect with a licensed clinician via video or messaging.

Amazon’s been quietly building its healthcare empire, and this move targets a massive pain point for families: fast, affordable care without the waiting room. It’s also a bold play in the $300B+ U.S. pediatric market.

This could be a game-changer for busy parents but it also raises questions about quality, continuity, and trust in virtual care.

👀 Tip: If you’re in one of the 48 supported states, try it next time your kid’s daycare calls with “another fever.”

Apple’s Siri upgrade is months away but its top AI talent keeps walking out the door.

  • Ke Yang, who led Apple’s AI search team, just joined Meta’s Superintelligence Labs.

  • She was in charge of making Siri smarter by pulling real-time web info, key to Apple’s 2026 revamp.

  • This follows a wave of exits from Apple’s AIML team, including its former head of AI models.

Apple’s new Siri is supposed to compete with OpenAI, Google, and Perplexity but losing key architects this close to launch is a red flag. Meta, meanwhile, is quietly building a dream team of ex-Apple AI leaders.

⚠️ If Apple can’t hold onto its AI talent, Siri’s comeback might be dead on arrival.

👀 Insight: Watch for more exits. Bloomberg says even Apple insiders expect the talent drain to continue.

Behind the scenes, cloud giants are reshaping where your AI hardware comes from and it’s not China anymore.

  • Microsoft plans to move 80% of Surface and server production out of China by 2026.

  • AWS and Google are pressuring suppliers to shift notebook and data center hardware to Southeast Asia and India.

  • The goal: reduce exposure to geopolitical risk, especially as U.S.–China tensions escalate.

This isn’t just a supply chain shuffle; it’s a strategic pivot that could redefine where the future of cloud and AI gets built. With AI infrastructure booming, Big Tech wants more control, less risk, and faster scaling.

Expect more investment in Vietnam, Thailand, and India as the new cloud hardware hubs.

👀 Insight: If you’re building AI tools, keep an eye on where your chips and servers are coming from—this shift could impact pricing and availability.
