📈 Intel Finally Scores a GPU Win

“Intel’s Arc B580: The budget-friendly GPU everyone’s raving about.”

Intel has officially entered the GPU battlefield—and they didn’t just enter; they won a round. Their Arc B580 “Battlemage” GPU launched to rave reviews and immediate sellouts, proving to be the budget gaming option the industry didn’t see coming.

Why all the hype?

• The Arc B580 outperforms competitors like NVIDIA’s RTX 4060 and AMD’s RX 7600 in both price and performance.

• Priced at around $250, it’s a steal for its capabilities.

• Retail shelves are emptying fast, but Intel assures weekly restocks are en route.

Intel isn’t stopping there. Additional models are in the pipeline with higher-end configurations, so keep an eye on those online restock notifications.

🛠️ OpenAI Releases o1 API, New Developer Tools

“More power, more tools, and a playground for AI builders.”

Day 9 of OpenAI’s live stream didn’t disappoint. They unveiled game-changing updates that developers have been waiting for:

🔑 Here’s what’s new:

• o1 API: The advanced reasoning model is out of preview, bringing features like function calling, structured outputs, and vision.

• Cost Structure: o1 comes in at $15 per ~750k words analyzed and $60 per ~750k words generated—3-4x pricier than GPT-4o.

• Realtime API: GPT-4o’s audio API costs just dropped by 60%, and there’s a new lightweight 4o mini priced at a tenth of the cost.

• Preference Fine-Tuning: Developers can now customize models using comparative examples instead of static training data, making AI output far more tailored and accurate.

• Beta SDKs for Go and Java are here, too—more options, more integrations.

Why it matters: OpenAI’s updates mean AI builders can create more powerful, customizable tools—everything from smarter chatbots to real-time voice applications just got easier to build.

🎁 Nvidia Drops a $249 Palm-Sized AI Supercomputer

“Tiny in size, massive in power—NVIDIA’s Jetson Orin Nano changes the game.”

NVIDIA just launched its Jetson Orin Nano Super Developer Kit, a palm-sized generative AI supercomputer priced at just $249. Think Raspberry Pi—but turbocharged for AI developers.

🚀 The key specs:

• Delivers 1.7x the performance of its predecessor.

• Packs 70% more processing power and a 50% memory boost.

• Handles multiple AI tasks simultaneously—from chatbot powerhouses to visual data processing for robotics.

• Works seamlessly with popular tools like NVIDIA’s Isaac for robotics and Metropolis for vision AI.

Existing Jetson Orin Nano owners get a bonus: 1.7x performance gains via a free software update.

Why it matters: For just $249, this kit lowers the barriers to entry for DIY AI projects. Whether it’s building smarter robots or AI tools in dorm rooms, NVIDIA’s move could inspire the next wave of home-grown innovators.

Invest with the art investment platform with 23 profitable exits.

How has the art investing platform Masterworks been able to realize an individual profit for investors with each of its 23 exits to date?

Here’s an example: an exited Banksy was offered to investors at $1.039 million and internally appraised at the same value after acquisition. As Banksy’s market took off, Masterworks received an offer of $1.5 million from a private collector, resulting in 32% net annualized return for investors in the offering.

Every artwork performs differently — but with 3 illustrative sales (that were held for 1+ year), Masterworks investors realized net annualized returns of 17.6%, 17.8%, and 21.5%.

Masterworks takes care of the heavy lifting: from buying the paintings, to storing them, to selling them for you (no art experience required).
