Lithium Americas and GM Finalize Joint Venture for Thacker Pass Lithium Mine

The joint venture between General Motors and Lithium Americas to develop the Thacker Pass lithium mine in Nevada has been finalised. According to CEO

The joint venture between General Motors and Lithium Americas to develop the Thacker Pass lithium mine in Nevada has been finalised. According to CEO Jonathan Evans, the projects final investment decision is expected to be made in early 2025. GM will use a credit facility and cash payments totalling $625 million to purchase a 38% interest in the mine as part of the transaction. This collaboration comes after the U.S. government approved a $2.26 billion loan for the Thacker Pass project, launched during the Biden administration but authorised under Donald Trump. At full capacity, Thacker Pass should generate 40,000 metric tonnes of batterygrade lithium carbonate yearly, enough to power about 800,000 electric cars. Read More..

Microsoft Unveils RealTime Translation Feature for Live Captions on Copilot+ PCs

To lessen dependency on OpenAIs GPT4 and save operating expenses, Microsoft is integrating both internal and external AI models into Microsoft 365 Cop

To lessen dependency on OpenAIs GPT4 and save operating expenses, Microsoft is integrating both internal and external AI models into Microsoft 365 Copilot. Although OpenAI is still a vital partner, Microsoft is also training its Phi4 models and modifying openweight models to increase efficiency and speed. The change will save expenses and possibly make Copilot more accessible for business clients. This approach aligns with other Microsoft initiatives, including GitHub, which lately embraced other Anthropic and Google methods. 2024 analysts predict that 365 Copilot will have over 10 million paying users, with utilisation recorded in 70% of Fortune 500 businesses, despite uptake and pricing problems.

According to reports, Google is working on an AI Mode for its Search platform to provide users with a conversational interface for searches instead of the topicsummarizing AI Overviews feature. Like the Gemini chatbot interface, the AI Mode will offer followup query alternatives, relevant URLs, and contextual information. Google intends to compete with OpenAIs ChatGPT, which is said to have significantly more active users and increase user engagement by incorporating Geminis capabilities into Search. The feature may improve Search engine functionality, which is anticipated to handle both voice and text prompts. Though its release date is unknown, AI Mode, which sits beneath the text field on Search, may help close the gap between search and conversational AI. Read More..

Apple to Begin Mass Production of M5 Chips in 2025 with TSMC’s Advanced 3nm Tech

Apple plans to use TSMCs advanced 3nm semiconductor node N3P for increased efficiency and performance when it massproduces its M5 chip family in 2025.

Apple plans to use TSMCs advanced 3nm semiconductor node N3P for increased efficiency and performance when it massproduces its M5 chip family in 2025. According to reports, the M5 chip will use 5–10% less power and perform 5% better than its predecessor, the M4. To save 30–50% of space, improve thermal performance, and reduce throttling, future M5 Pro, Max, and Ultra models will use a "servergrade" SoICmH design, integrating circuits horizontally. Apple may divide the CPU and GPU designs on the M5 processor to maximise performance for each and improve AI capabilities. With this invention, Apples chip architecture has advanced significantly, perhaps leading to notable processing power and efficiency improvements. Read More..

In November, Singapores primary consumer price indicator increased 1.9% yearly, less than experts had predicted and the weakest increase in almost three years. Similar to the previous months growth, the core inflation rate—which does not include the prices of private road transport and lodging—was lower than the expected 2.1%. Since November 2021, this is the lowest rise. Headline inflation was 1.6%, less than the 1.8% forecast. The Monetary Authority of Singapore MAS may adjust monetary policy in January due to the decreasing inflationary pressures. Still, analysts predict that major adjustments might not occur until 2025 because of the uncertainty surrounding U.S. policies under incoming President Donald Trump. Read More..
