# This Week in All Things AI - Week 25-2026 *Sunday 14th June 2026 to Saturday 20th June 2026* By [This Week in All Things AI](https://paragraph.com/@twiata) · 2026-06-26 --- This post originally meant to go out on 21st June was delayed because I had taken some personal time off to participate in [Ashara Mubaraka](https://www.thedawoodibohras.com/about-the-bohras/ashara-mubaraka/) \[from 16th to 24th June\] This Week in All Things AI covers key developments in models, agents, tools, infrastructure, and policy curated from discussions in the [**All Things AI Telegram group.**](https://t.me/+PnCnwhgH8V4yMTFl) If you follow AI for work, research, investing, or just to understand where the technology is heading, this [**weekly brief**](https://paragraph.com/@twiata) is a concise way to scan the most important launches, risks, and resources in a few focused minutes. The week of June 14–20, 2026 saw high-profile industry consolidation, with SpaceX acquiring Cursor AI in a $60 billion all-stock deal aimed at accelerating model development on its Colossus supercomputer. Model releases continued to push boundaries, headlined by GLM-5.2—an open-weight model with a 1-million-token context window and competitive pricing. On the talent front, Noam Shazeer, co-inventor of the Transformer architecture, departed Google for OpenAI, while Microsoft's Satya Nadella outlined a strategy centered on companies owning their own "learning loops" and building "token capital" from internal data. Market concerns also surfaced, including leaked reports questioning OpenAI's financial stability and broader commentary on unsustainable business models across the sector. On the product side, Midjourney announced a healthcare division, CozyBlanket Pro introduced real-time AI topology prediction for 3D modeling, and MLX-LoRA-Studio brought local LoRA fine-tuning to Apple Silicon Macs. The sections that follow walk through these items day by day, with short context and links so you can dive deeper into the pieces most relevant to your work or interests. * * * Sunday 14th June 2026 --------------------- via [Sam O](https://t.me/SamOBiz84) who asked the following question > What do you think about what is said in this video ? > > Short summary of the video: The AI industry is facing a potential collapse due to unsustainable business models, over-reliance on hype, and financial struggles, which may ultimately lead to a significant downturn in the industry. [![](https://paragraph.com/editor/youtube/play.png)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFBWfPQpGXc) Monday 15th June 2026 --------------------- Satya Nadella Outlines AI's Future for Businesses in Detailed Post Satya Nadella says companies must own their AI “learning loops” to compound human and token capital.  He describes a 'cognitive loop' where human judgment guides AI, emphasizing two key assets: employees' ingenuity and 'token capital' from custom AI developed on private data. He warns against AI labs capturing all value, pushing for a 'frontier ecosystem' that spreads benefits across firms and nations while avoiding industry hollowing. Tech leaders praised the positive vision, though critics pointed to job risks from Microsoft's own layoffs and workflow automation.

If the numbers turn out to be real, this is 30~40% less revenue & >800% higher losses than claimed/hinted at by Sam previously Here the FT reporting, they wouldnt publish without proper vetting. Super bearish: [https://www.ft.com/content/e15b0d7e-ff6b-4f16-ba7a-4068feddb828?syn-25a6b1a6=1](https://www.ft.com/content/e15b0d7e-ff6b-4f16-ba7a-4068feddb828?syn-25a6b1a6=1) Lol, the FT just updated the article. They now claim that 77% of the losses booked last year (30 out of 39B$) might be attributable to the non-profit restructuring, which would be a much better case. 21B$ costs from operations on 13B$ of revenue. Sorry, last message from my side on this (I just find the economies of scale of frontier models fascinating and have to share).  Im in Ed's discord and he now claims that he expects the real costs of operations to be much higher given that the leaked numbers are non-GAAP and are artificially reduced by removing at least 30% by associating costs to listed stakeholders (e.g. Microsoft). He expects 9$ spent on 1$ earned. Time will tell.
