Welcome back, Superhuman. Meta is bringing AI to matchmaking. Facebook Dating will now suggest matches based on your interests and create weekly “surprise” connections with its Meet Cute feature. Match Group, which owns Tinder and other major dating apps, saw its stock price drop by around 5% following the news.

Today: Nvidia bets big on OpenAI, Alibaba’s new open-source AI model, learn how to create your first AI agent, and get the latest prompts and trending social posts.

1. Nvidia doubles down on OpenAI: The chip giant is planning to invest up to $100B in OpenAI to build large-scale data centers for training and running AI models. The deal includes deploying 10 gigawatts of Nvidia systems, with the first phase expected to go live in late 2026. The move could reduce OpenAI’s reliance on Microsoft, which relaxed its exclusivity deal earlier this year.

2. Alibaba debuts powerful all-in-one model: The Chinese tech giant has unveiled Qwen3-Omni, a fully multimodal AI that handles text, image, audio, and video in one model. Unlike OpenAI’s GPT-4o or Google’s Gemini 2.5 Pro, Qwen3-Omni is open source under Apache 2.0 license, allowing free commercial use and modification. Available on Hugging Face, the model charges $0.25 per million API tokens. Alibaba claims the model is state-of-the-art on several performance benchmarks.

3. Perplexity adds AI-powered email assistant: The startup’s new Email Assistant lets users schedule meetings, organize emails, and draft replies using AI. The tool is limited to the $200-per-month Max plan and currently supports only Gmail and Outlook. Max subscribers can access the AI assistant by emailing Perplexity’s dedicated address. The AI doesn’t train on user emails, but it can mimic their writing style when drafting responses. See it in action here.

Most AI apps never make it past the prototype phase because of compliance gaps, security issues, and weak infrastructure. This guide outlines how successful teams move quickly from idea to launch.

WorkOS gives you the APIs and enterprise features—SSO, SCIM, RBAC, and Audit Logs—so your team can go from prototype to production, and fast.

FROM THE FRONTIER

Investors are piling billions into AI startups. One prominent investor thinks it’s a bad idea.

Made with Midjourney

A new contrarian piece by retired venture investor Jerry Neumann that’s doing the rounds in the venture capital community has bad news for investors: AI won’t make you rich.

Major new technological breakthroughs aren’t always a gold rush. Railroads, electricity, cars, microprocessors — each sparked decades of innovation and made thousands of founders and investors rich. But some technological waves haven’t been as kind to founders and investors.

Take containerization. In the 1950s, shipping containers slashed costs, sped delivery, and reshaped global trade. Yet almost no one profited except a tiny handful of early movers. The real winners? Companies like IKEA and Walmart, which leveraged the system to dominate supply chains, delight customers, and quietly build fortunes.

AI is the new containerization, argues Neumann. Unlike the PC revolution of the 1970s, AI in 2025 is predictable, capital-intensive, and dominated by a few giants: Microsoft, Google, OpenAI, and so on. Experimentation is restricted, upside is capped, and the element of surprise — the secret ingredient of wealth creation — is gone.

Neumann’s takeaway for investors: Don't chase AI model companies or applications. Instead, look for businesses in healthcare, education, or professional services that will use AI to slash costs and expand access. Companies that use AI the way IKEA used containers — efficiently, quietly, and at scale, will be the ones to win. You can read the full piece here.
