Hi everyone – welcome to your [AI-generated] 3 Shifts Edition.
Our first Shift fills in some of the blanks since the last time we covered incoming President Trump’s slate of appointments last month. In this brief, we zoom in on the more notable among the key regulators and administrators who will shape the economy during the 2nd Trump administration.
Next, the DC Circuit just upheld the law requiring that ByteDance divest in order for TikTok to operate in the US. The TikTok ban is set to go into effect on Jan 19 2025 – just a little over one month from now. While TikTok still has some potential outs, the noose is drawing tighter.
Finally, Google’s Quantum AI group just revealed its latest quantum chip called Willow. Willow represents a significant breakthrough in being able to “reduce errors exponentially as we scale up using more qubits.” Willow also performed a benchmark computation in less than 5 minutes that would take one of the fastest supercomputers 10 septillion (10^25) years.
