Bible Verses of the Day

16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.” [Romans 1:16-17, ESV]

At the AI Action Summit in Paris this week, the U.S. declined to sign the statement summarizing the resolutions. But it did make an appearance: Vice President JD Vance gave a speech to the audience of dignitaries, tech leaders, and regulators.

Amid a conference heavy on equitable AI development — specifically, beyond the outsized influence of U.S. companies — and exploring where government fits into the mix, Vance painted a picture of how the Trump administration sees things: The U.S. is dominant, it intends to stay there, and regulation be damned if it gets in the way.

According to a report published Tuesday by The Information, Apple is partnering with Alibaba to bring its Apple Intelligence platform to China. The deal is said to arrive after the iPhone maker reportedly explored — but ultimately rejected — a potential partnership with uber-buzzy AI startup DeepSeek, as well as with ByteDance.

Apple initially selected Baidu as its partner in bringing Apple Intelligence to its customers in China, but issues adapting the Chinese search giant’s models were apparently too great to overcome.
