Google And SpaceX To Launch Orbital AI Datacenter “Project Suncatcher” Next Year, Here’s Everything We Know

Google recently announced that it is in discussion with SpaceX to launch Project Suncatcher, which is not an evil scheme from a supervillain, but instead an orbital data center.

An orbital data center might also sound like an evil scheme from a supervillain, but it is in fact a network of “solar-powered satellites equipped with its Tensor Processing Units into an orbital AI cloud.”

SpaceX and Google: Unlikely Crewmates

Elon Musk and Google have had their beef in the past, specifically with the founding of OpenAI, which was built as a direct rival to Google’s AI plans. But as the old saying goes, “my enemy’s enemy is still my enemy unless we’re building the future of AI together, and then we’re friends.”

Elon has also struck up a collaboration with Anthropic to use SpaceX’s Colossus 1 computing facility, but also because of this orbital datacenter idea. SpaceX has the one thing these tech companies don’t: rockets. Except for Amazon, they’ve got Blue Origin.

And Elon very much wants to lock in these deals to push the tech frontier into space because SpaceX’s potentially very lucrative IPO is coming up, and being seen as the shovel maker for this current AI gold rush can only make you more valuable.

The vision couldn’t be clearer than when Elon merged SpaceX with xAI to make Spacexxai, sorry, I meant to say, the much less sexy: SpaceXAI.

So, will Project Suncatcher eventually have liftoff? Is extra-terrestrial AI computing really the future of tech? Or is this idea destined to remain science fiction?

Well, we won’t know for a while, but what we do know is that Elon and Google’s answers are a massive: yes, yes and no (in that order).

That’s a great question, thanks for asking…

Anthropic! The minds behind your best friend, Claude, have just unveiled 10 finance-first AI tools, and so, in no particular order, here are our:

TOP TEN FINANCE-FIRST AI TOOLS UNVEILED BY ANTHROPIC:

Pitch builder, which, wait, let me guess, builds pitches?
Meeting preparer, err, does it… prepare meetings?
Earnings reviewer, reviews earnings, I presume?
Model builder, OK, it builds models. I get it.
Market researcher, it RESEARCHES MARKETS. I understand.
Valuation reviewer, reviews valuations, yes. I know. Are they all going to be named like this?
General ledger, I’m understanding the pattern now. It ledges generals.
Month-end closer, closes the month-end? What? What are you talking about?
Statement auditor, audits statements. OK, I think I know what that means…
KYC screener, KYC is ‘know your customer’, so this tool screens know your customers. Yeah. That makes sense.

Pretty useful stuff. Well, presumably useful if you’re a bank or other financial entity. And apparently these tools work across Excel, PowerPoint, Word, Microsoft 365 and Outlook (but not yet, hold your horses, they’re still working on that one).

But the question remains: is AI the future of finance? Well, that’s a great question, thanks for asking, but of course, we won’t know until the future arrives. Anthropic certainly thinks so, but they are an AI company, so they would say that.

A better question (but in much worse English) might be, is AI the present of finance? And to that the answer is: yes.

AI has already had a massive influence on the financial world, not only with the economic impact of the ballooning tech sector, but in the application of AI tools in finance. Trading and investment, underwriting, auditing, and anti-money laundering have all made use of bespoke AI tools.

In fact, finance was one of the first sectors to embrace machine learning technologies, beginning way back in 1987, “When Security Pacific National Bank launched a fraud prevention task-force to counter the unauthorized use of debit cards.” At least that’s according to my buddy John Wiki Pedia.

So AI has very much been a part of the finance world’s past and present. If you had to guess, it seems a safe bet to say AI will be part of finance’s future too.

TLDR: Yes.

The world’s richest man, Elon ‘The World’s Richest Man’ Musk, has announced that his AI company xAI will completely merge with his rocket company SpaceX to form the obviously-named ‘Xaispace’.

Sorry, no, I got that mixed up…

Since xAI already merged with ‘the social media platform formerly known as Twitter’ (X), the new company will acknowledge this legacy and be named SpaceXX(formerly known as Twitter)xAI. Or SpaceXXXAI for short.

Except… that domain is already taken by an incredibly not safe for work website, so we’re just going to go with SpaceXAI for now.

Is that all clear?

Great. Now, you might be asking, what do AI and space have in common? Well, other than both being a soulless void, space could easily be the next frontier for AI investment. You see, if no one in Texas wants an AI datacenter, we have to look somewhere else that has lots of space.

And there’s only one space with more space than Texas:

Space.

Yes, the grand plan is to deploy orbital datacenters to handle Earth’s growing AI usage. And if that all sounds like science fiction, well, it is until it happens, but Blue Origin and Microsoft are all looking in the same direction:

Up. (Space.)

We’ll just have to wait and see how this merger will affect SpaceX’s upcoming IPO but if things stay on track, SpaceX is due for a massive $1.75 TRILLION valuation with a little bit of xAI sprinkled in to sweeten the deal.

Sorry, sorry, I said ‘SpaceX’ again. Old habits. I MEANT to say:

SPACEXX(THE SOCIAL MEDIA FORMER KNOWN AS TWITTER)XAI/TESLA/GROK/DOGEIMUSMAXIMUS

In a collab advert (a ‘collad’ if you will), FOX Sports, FOX One and Indeed are doing a cross promotion to promote their separate services across each other, promotionally.

The advert is billed as “a nationwide search to fill the position of “FOX One Chief World Cup Watcher Hired Through Indeed” – a dream job for cultural moment fanatics across the country.” Well, as a ‘cultural moment fanatic’ myself, this sounds very exciting indeed.

And to add to the excitement, this is being billed as a real job paying a massive $50,000 salary to watch all 104 matches across the 39-day tournament. The winner will be tasked with live-streaming the World Cup from “their personal office – a custom-built, dream viewing space in the heart of New York City’s Times Square.”

And all using the FOX One streaming platform, of course.

How To Apply

So first, you need to have an Indeed profile or make one (and there’s the rub).

Set it to “employers can find you.”

Then post a video on social media explaining why you’re right for the job with the hashtag #ChiefWorldCupWatcher.

So, you know, how you’d apply for any other definitely real job.

And If You Get The Role…

…It’s going to be an interesting one to put on the resume.

“Now I’m seeing a gap in your employment history here: it just says ‘watched the soccer’?”

“Oh, no, that was a job. A real job Hired Through Indeed™. I was paid $50,000 to sit on the couch and watch soccer for a month. It was real, I didn’t dream it, I swear!”

Though to be fair, at least one person’s getting paid. How many people have been doing this for free every World Cup, like a sucker? All this time, you could have been earning a fortune? Who knew.

Do you think they can backdate these payments…?

Like… no?

Elon Musk, the richest man in the world, isn’t done yet and just announced his plan on X to become even richerer.

Replying to a Tweet (Xweet) that Musk will soon pass the $800 billion net worth milestone, Elon said simply, “$10T or bust.”

And look, the world is already bracing itself for the first ever trillionaire, let alone someone of ten times that value. For reference, only the US and China have GDPs higher than $10 trillion. Germany and Japan take third and fourth place, and they’re not even worth $10 trillion COMBINED.

According to Peter Diamandis, founder of the X Prize Foundation, Elon holds an estimated 2.7% of America’s GDP. The last person to do that was JD Rockefeller in 1913.

“Rockefeller had oil. Musk has the future,” says Diamandis.

And it’s true. With SpaceX’s upcoming IPO set to launch Musk’s wealth into the stratosphere, we could very much have the world’s first trillionaire on our hands.

But that’s not the only win that Elon’s been racking up lately. His ongoing civil case against OpenAI, has successfully hamstrung his AI rival for the foreseeable future.

And Musk recently settled on a different case, this time with the SEC, paying a fine of $1.5 million for failing (ALLEGEDLY) to disclose purchasing Twitter (ALLEGEDLY). Now that might sound like a lot of money, but it’s peanuts compared with his net worth and the $150 million that the SEC was originally trying to hit him with. Big W for the ‘Lon.

So will Elon Musk successfully sue OpenAI? Will he reach one trillion? Ten trillion? Or will he go completely bust? There’s only one way to find out… wait and see.

A recent court filing has revealed that Paramount plans to take Warner Bros Discovery up to nearly 50% foreign ownership in a step that might create a hiccup for the still pending merger. Gasp!

In the filing, Paramount has asked for a lift of the statutory limit on foreign ownership of Paramount’s US broadcasting. The Ellison-owned company requires billions of dollars in overseas financing predominantly from Middle East investors.

‘Warner Bros’ to rebrand as ‘Warner Habibi’

These investors were essential to winning the bidding war, with the major investment funds agreeing to provide $24 billion for the studio:

Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund: 15.1% of the company.
L’Imad, an investment vehicle backed by Abu Dhabi sovereign wealth fund: 12.8%.
The Qatar Investment Authority: 10.6%.
My cousin Lawrence who threw in fifteen dollars.
Other foreign funds, including some passive backers, which are below 10% so haven’t been exposed.

These investors won’t have voting shares, those remain with the Ellison family and RedBird Capital but it’s unclear how much influence they will have.

The Financial Times suggests it will “provide a boost to their soft power even without voting rights,” and “advances their goal of diversifying their economies away from oil and gas. Gulf states have poured hundreds of billions of dollars into sport, entertainment and tourism.”

The deal is likely to still go ahead with FCC Chair, Brendan Carr calling the merger a “good deal” but no doubt this development will add increased scrutiny for the already closely watched buyout.

And I know I’m watching, there’s just nothing good on Netflix right now.

From $29.99 to $22.99 a month

Xbox has also dropped exclusive access to the latest Call of Duty from Game Pass so I guess one CoD is worth $7 a month then?

The move makes Game Pass one of the few subscriptions that’s actually gone down recently especially after the price was hiked 50% just six months ago.

Now the Game Pass is worth only 35% more than it was two years ago. …hardly a bargain.

And crucially it’ll no longer have the CoD exclusive release meaning that the people who really lose out are gamers who got the pass for just a couple of months solely to get the latest CoD at a discounted price.

Everyone else though will no longer have to subsidise Black Ops 49 or whatever we’re up to by now.

Xbox? More like ex-box, am I right?

This comes a difficult time for Xbox as many are saying that they’re shit now, oh, wait, people have always been saying that? Oh, sorry, I guess that’s not news then…

For everything Xbox, keep it locked at WSM.

Idk, probably because he already bought it?

So yeah, it seems crazy that a man as wealthy and powerful as Jeffrey H. Bezos hasn’t had a pay rise since 1998 and doesn’t even take bonuses. But it’s all just shuffling money around isn’t it?

Sure, he takes a nominal salary and can claim to be the better man for it but Amazon pays about $1.6 million in security and travel on Bezos but the CRUCIALLY Jeff is sitting on 8% of Amazon stock worth hundreds of billions.

Yeah, it’s actually quite straightforward, really. I mean, this guy is the third richest person in the world, worth $250 billion, did you really think he was relying on that Christmas Bonus to make ends meet?

Jeff bezos earnings — He doesn’t need it guys, he really, really doesn’t need it.

Yeah, the Bezos family mansion complex will be fine

As the SEC filing explains, “Mr. Bezos requested not to receive additional compensation and has never received annual cash compensation in excess of his current amount. Due to Mr. Bezos’s substantial stock ownership, he believes he is appropriately incentivized and his interests are appropriately aligned with shareholders’ interests.”

Not going to lie, that’s fair play.

Jeff gets compensated when the company’s doing well. He personally invested in the company succeeding. He doesn’t need an insanely high default amount of money that he can rely on even if he lets Amazon go down the tube.

I’m looking at you, Zaslov…

Ok so this story comes from the highly reputable source, ‘HipHopGamer’ who claims to have an in with Rockstar and will happily do some of their marketing for them with a healthy does of wild speculation.

Mr Gamer says that Rockstar is building an in-game ecosystem and marketplace for players to buy and sell assets they’ve created, allowing real people to make real money in the virtual Vice City.

“There’s things in Grand Theft Auto that I know for a fact, because I got a chance to party with Rockstar, literally,” said HipHop. “This game will produce millionaires. We’re living in a time where UGC is a major thing. It’s wise and it’s worth the wait.”

Don’t know why he speaks like that but OK.

So yeah, this could easily be BS but there’s a chance that HHG is right and GTA6 will have a sort of Roblox/Second Life style internal economy. Could be crap though.

I mean, these games often have an insane amount of features stuffed into the game that you don’t really end up using. Like, did anyone even like the hiking minigame in GTA5?

But even if GTA6 won’t make regular people millionaires it’s certainly going to make some millionaires at Rockstar what with it being maybe the most anticipated video game of all time.

Crabs.

Errr, yeah, definitely not some insider trading happening here…

Investors put about $950 million dollars (dollars) into bets on oil prices falling just hours before US and Iran announced a ceasefire and oil prices did indeed fall.

8,600 lots on Brent and US crude futures were sold for a massive profit. And this might not seem unusual at first but to place massive lots like this in bulk is unusual.

Does it mean there’s something fishy going on? Is Donald Trump himself sat on Polymarket every night trying to make a killing?

We saw this before back in March when investors sold $500 million in oil futures 15 minutes before Trump delayed attacks on Iran’s energy places and oil had a massive drop again.

An anonymous crypto gambler netted almost half a million on a bet that Maduro would be out just two days before he was ousted by Trump and if you can smell something fishy with that then you might just have a future in law enforcement.

Just five hours before the kidnapping, the secret better doubled down on their bet, implying that he (OR SHE) may have been privy to some of that tasty, tasty insider information.

The account was only one week old at the time of the bet and sure, maybe this brand new user got very lucky and cashed out immediately then disappeared, or…

Or they knew something that no one else did.

Well, people are taking note and in response to this story, Democrat Richie Torres announced a bill to crack down on government officials trading on prediction markets.

Maduro? more like, U Mad Bro?

It might be an uphill battle however as it seems that the powers that be paved the way for said insider trading.

As Futurism explains: “Back in October, Reuters reported that the Trump Media and Technology Group was working with Crypto.com to implement prediction market functionality into Truth Social. That came as dozens of federal investigations into crypto-based price fixing, securities fraud, and regulatory noncompliance have been dropped at the Trump administration’s urging. Two of those cases were against prediction platforms Polymarket —the very same implicated in the Venezuela allegations — and Kalshi, for selling options contracts related to congressional elections.”

So does this one goes all the way to the top? We’ll just have to wait and see.
