Hello everyone! Welcome back to AI Tech News Today. It’s June 6, 2025, and today we are diving into some hot topics in the world of Artificial Intelligence. Buckle up because there’s a lot to unpack!

The Hidden Use of AI in Hollywood

Did you know? Hollywood doesn’t want you to know just how much AI it’s already using.

• According to a new report, studios are increasingly automating crucial aspects of film production, including:
  • Script rewrites
  • Visual effects

This revelation raises important questions about whether other industries are also secretly embracing automation and AI technology.

Change at Anthropic

Winds of Change

This week, Anthropic made headlines with some surprising news:

• The company abruptly cut off direct access to its Claude 3.x models for Windsurf, a vibe-coding startup.
• Jared Kaplan, co-founder of Anthropic, explained that this decision was influenced by OpenAI’s reported acquisition of Windsurf.

As a result, Windsurf is now working hard to find alternative computing options to remain competitive, while rivals like GitHub Copilot continue to enjoy unrestricted access to Anthropic’s models.

Amazon’s Big Investment

A Game-Changer for AI Infrastructure

Amazon has made waves with a massive investment announcement:

• The company is committing $10 billion to enhance its AI infrastructure in North Carolina.
• This initiative will create 500 new jobs and significantly boost Amazon Web Services’ generative capabilities.

Amazon’s CEO, Andy Jassy, described AI as a “once-in-a-lifetime” opportunity, underscoring the importance of infrastructure in the ongoing AI arms race.

NVIDIA’s New Chips

Revolutionizing Hardware

Game-changing news in hardware: NVIDIA’s latest chips have set a new benchmark.

• The newly released Blackwell chips are over twice as fast as their predecessor, Hopper, in training trillion-parameter models.
• Recently, a cluster of 2,496 chips completed its task in just 27 minutes.

These faster chips could drastically reduce costs and open new possibilities for complex model experimentation.

Emergent AI Tools

Innovation on the Rise

Shoutout to the emergent AI tools gaining traction:

• ElevenLab’s emotionally expressive text-to-speech model
• Sky’s natural language interaction for Mac users

Innovation is thriving! If you’re curious about the latest in AI tools, make sure to catch up on the recent releases.

As always, thank you for tuning in! This is just the tip of the iceberg in AI developments. Stay informed and curious, because the world of AI is only getting crazier and more exciting.
