India is all set for the launch of its high-powered communication satellite, GSAT-30 onboard a European launch vehicle from French Guiana, early on Friday. The launch is scheduled at 2:35 am on Friday, when the Ariane-5 rocket would lift off from the European Spaceport in Kourou, France. It will be the 24th Indian satellite to be launched by the Ariane rocket of Arianespace, which is the commercial arm of the European Space Agency (ESA) and India’s long term partner in various satellite launches.
It would be the first Indian satellite to be injected into space this year and would strengthen India’s telecommunication services for the next 15 years. The satellite developed by scientists at the Indian Space Research Organization (Isro) would replace the ageing INSAT 4A-spacecraft, launched in 2005 which is used by cable operators to broadcast their programmes abroad. GSAT30 would allow them to continue these services over an extended area.
GSAT-30 derives its heritage from ISRO’s earlier INSAT/GSAT satellite series, which has more than a dozen satellites in the space orbit providing communication services over the country for decades.

OpenAI Hits Back at Elon Musk with Countersuit, Alleging Harassment

OpenAI has countersued Elon Musk, accusing him of harassment and seeking a court order to block further legal action.
Musk, who co-founded OpenAI in 2015 but left before its rise, now opposes its shift to a for-profit model. OpenAI claims Musk has used press attacks, lawsuits, and takeover bids to disrupt its business and fundraising efforts.
Musk’s legal team argues that OpenAI unfairly rejected a $97.4 billion takeover bid.
OpenAI insists Musk’s actions aim to hinder competition and seize control of top AI innovations. The lawsuit is critical to OpenAI’s for-profit transition, which it says is necessary to secure $40 billion in funding.

Nothing Eyes Rs 1,000-Crore JV, Plans India as Global Export Hub

Sources said Nothing plans a Rs 1,000-crore joint venture with leading electronics manufacturers to establish India as a key global production hub.
Talks with potential partners are in advanced stages, and once finalised, the company plans to invest over Rs 1,000 crore in a new facility for smartphones and audio products.
Currently, Nothing manufactures its smartphones through Noida-based Dixon and BYD India. CEO Carl Pei recently met key partners in India, highlighting the country’s growing role in global smartphone production. The company has also appointed co-founder Akis Evangelidis as president of India to drive expansion.
Several Chinese smartphone brands, including Vivo and Oppo, are exploring similar joint ventures, aligning with the Indian government’s “Make in India” push. Dixon has already partnered with China’s Transsion Holdings.
Nothing was the fastest-growing smartphone brand in 2024, with 577% YoY growth driven by its Phone (2a) and CMF sub-brand. The company plans to expand its offline retail network to 12,000 stores in 2025 and is manufacturing its upcoming Phone (3a) series at BYD India’s Chennai facility.
With a strong presence in India and Europe, Nothing has sold over 7 million devices globally. Analysts say its growth strategy, pricing, and branding have helped it gain momentum as a rising challenger brand.

Microsoft-backed Wicresoft to Exit China, Cut Jobs: Report

According to reports, Microsoft’s joint venture Wicresoft will shut down its China operations starting Tuesday, resulting in around 2,000 job cuts.
The decision follows Microsoft’s move to end outsourcing after-sales support in China to Wicresoft, raising concerns about how it will service local Windows and Office users.
The layoffs will mainly affect Microsoft’s outsourced team in China. Wicresoft has not commented on the closure. Microsoft is scaling back in China amid rising US-China tensions and competition from local firms like Kingsoft.
Founded in 2002, Wicresoft was Microsoft’s first joint venture in China and operates globally with over 10,000 employees. Microsoft recently shut down a Shanghai lab focused on AI and IoT.
A screenshot of an internal email about the shutdown circulated online, but Microsoft denied it referred to its operations, clarifying that it was about Wicresoft.

ChatGPT Can Create Fake Aadhaar, PAN Cards—But Here’s Why It’s Not a Big Concern

Less than two weeks after its launch, OpenAI’s upgraded image generator in ChatGPT has raised privacy concerns by creating fake government ID cards with Aadhaar and PAN numbers.
Users on X shared concerns about security risks and called for AI regulation after screenshots showed AI-generated ID cards with fictional details.
When tested, ChatGPT refused to generate Aadhaar or PAN cards, citing legal and ethical restrictions, but allowed the creation of parody-style badges and profile cards.
In a later test, ChatGPT placed an image in a PAN card template, asking about cropping and file format preferences. The output appeared AI-generated, with minor errors in text and design.
Further refinements produced a more realistic-looking PAN card with placeholders for key details. Adding fake information made the final output more convincing.
Real Aadhaar and PAN cards have security features like holograms, QR codes, and microtext, which were absent in AI-generated versions, making them easy to spot as fake.
While these AI-generated IDs may not bypass KYC verification, scammers could still use them to deceive individuals. The increasing availability of AI tools with fewer restrictions raises further concerns.

Google in Advanced Talks to Acquire NVIDIA AI Chips

Google is reportedly in late-stage talks with AI cloud provider CoreWeave to lease NVIDIA’s Blackwell chips amid an ongoing AI chip shortage.
CoreWeave’s close ties with NVIDIA and rapid AI data centre expansion have attracted interest from companies like OpenAI and Meta.
On Wednesday, CoreWeave’s stock climbed 14% to over $60, rebounding from its $40 IPO price. This comes despite reports that Microsoft may end data centre leases, with Google potentially acquiring some of the available capacity.
With AI firms like xAI and OpenAI emphasising the ongoing NVIDIA GPU shortage, computing power remains a critical asset. If finalised, Google’s deal with CoreWeave would strengthen its AI infrastructure in an increasingly competitive market.
