AI Regulations, Cooling Innovations, and Privacy Concerns in Tech

In this episode, we discuss a federal judge's temporary block on California's new AI law aimed at regulating deepfakes, highlighting the tension between digital content regulation and free speech. We also explore Submer's innovative immersion cooling technology, which has raised $55.5 million to tackle the heat challenges in data centers. Additionally, we delve into privacy concerns surrounding Meta's smart glasses and their potential use of personal images for AI training. Finally, we cover the Cancer AI Alliance's $40 million initiative to revolutionize cancer care through collaboration between tech and medical institutions.
