Blackberry re entry, Trump ki Chochlen, BYD takeover, CES 2026, Grok Scandal | EP-2

Good Morning and welcome to Monday Morning Tech — a show where we break down the most important technology, AI, startup, and innovation news of the week, without noise and without nonsense.

In this episode, we start with global headlines that are quietly impacting technology markets. From the Venezuela crisis and Nicolas Maduro’s arrest to its ripple effects on oil prices, gold volatility, critical minerals, and global tech supply chains, we explain why geopolitics still matters for technology and innovation.

Next, we move into the Elon Musk universe. From the brief Trump–Musk détente to Grok AI facing government notices in India, investigations in Malaysia, and legal scrutiny in Europe. We also break down Tesla’s 2025 delivery slowdown, BYD overtaking Tesla in global EV sales, and what this shift means for the electric vehicle industry. We also touch on reports around Musk’s net worth driven by SpaceX and xAI valuations.

From there, CES takes center stage. Nvidia’s next-gen Vera Rubin AI architecture, rack-scale AI computing, and its ambitious push to become the “Android of robotics” are explained in simple terms. We also discuss why Nvidia’s aggressive expansion is exciting for some and concerning for others.

We then talk about the 2025 Word of the Year — “Slop” — and what “AI Slop” really means. With insights from Satya Nadella, we explore why 2026 could be a turning point where AI moves away from hype toward real-world value, reliability, and deep workflow integration.

Robotics gets its own spotlight as Boston Dynamics’ Atlas humanoid integrates Google DeepMind’s AI, setting up direct competition with Tesla’s Optimus.

On the product side, we review viral and futuristic launches including the Temple brain wearable, Plaud NotePin AI recorder, Clicks Communicator’s Blackberry-style comeback, and LG’s ultra-thin 9mm OLED TV.

We also cover serious market shifts. European banks planning nearly 200,000 job cuts due to AI automation, India’s startup funding trends, climate tech funding, healthcare and fintech raises, and the growing IPO wave including Databricks, Cohere, Canva, and major Indian brands.

If you want tech news with context, clarity, and future impact, this episode is for you.
