1. OpenAI Plans Massive Data Center in India
Big news from OpenAI: the creators of ChatGPT are making serious moves in India! They’re setting up a gigantic data center—the kind that uses more than 1 gigawatt of power—to help power next-gen artificial intelligence tools. The project is part of OpenAI’s massive global “Stargate” initiative, which CEO Sam Altman will be talking more about when he visits India later this month. The company is also opening its first local office in New Delhi and signing up for partnerships with Indian officials and companies. The aim? To build local AI infrastructure and launch educational programs for Indian students and developers. There’s a lot of buzz that this could be one of the largest AI investments ever made in the country, a milestone for India’s growing tech ambitions.
2. Dolby Vision 2 Promises Next-Level TV Picture Quality
TV lovers, get ready for a big leap in movie nights. Dolby has just rolled out Dolby Vision 2, a fancy upgrade to its iconic HDR tech. What’s new? The headline feature is “Content Intelligence” powered by AI that fine-tunes your TV’s settings based on what you’re watching, your room’s light, and even the kind of device you’re using. The tech means sharper dark scenes, richer colors, and motion controls so you won’t get that distracting “soap opera” look. There’s also a feature called “Authentic Motion” that lets filmmakers tweak each shot for true cinematic vibes. Plus, mainstream TVs get a boost, with brands like Hisense launching models built for Dolby Vision 2 this year.
3. Salesforce Lays Off 4,000 Employees as AI Takes Over
Salesforce has let go of roughly 4,000 customer support staff, signaling just how fast AI is changing workplaces. Nearly fifty percent of Salesforce’s support staff were let go, and now AI systems manage almost half of all customer interactions. According to CEO Marc Benioff, AI agents are also reaching out to sales leads that humans just don’t have time for. This kind of “human-AI tag team” means routine jobs are becoming automated, and support reps now only step in for tricky cases. Benioff insists humans are still crucial, but the trend is clear: AI is shaking up how big companies operate.

Another even bigger facility nearby is being built and will handle up to 14.5 million chips daily when complete next year. The project is set to generate over 5,000 jobs and is a big step toward making India self-reliant in chip-making, reducing dependence on imports for automotive, defense, and other industries.
