TODAY IN AI

1. Saudi Arabia locks in historic deals with Nvidia, Amazon, AMD, and Google: Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, and Sam Altman are just a few of the tech bigwigs visiting Saudi Arabia this week with hopes of landing multi-billion-dollar deals with the emerging AI powerhouse. For its part, Nvidia agreed to hand over 18,000 advanced chips to support the country’s newly announced AI startup, Humain. AWS is going in on a $5B project to build an “AI Zone” inside the nation. And Google will back Saudi VC STV’s new $100M AI fund. That’s just the start of a week that’ll likely be filled with billion-dollar handshakes.

2. TikTok brings video generation to the masses: With its 1.8B monthly users, the platform is rolling out a feature called AI Alive that turns still images into videos. The move makes sense, considering parent company ByteDance has recently been churning out VLMs left and right. While you won’t get the same level of control as dedicated video-gen tools, AI Alive wins in accessibility, since anyone can try it right in the app. But it’s also raising fears that AI slop could take over the platform.

3. Workspace platform Notion gets an AI overhaul: The popular productivity tool is joining the likes of Zoom, Granola, and Otter by introducing new AI-powered note-taking and transcription features. Plus, you can now use AI to search across all of your company’s data, conduct in-depth research, and draft documents. For now, you can switch between GPT-4.1 and Claude 3.7, with more models coming soon. Here’s a video with all the details.

Linkedin Profile Optimizer

Prompt: Act as a LinkedIn personal branding expert and career strategist. Help me optimize my LinkedIn profile to attract the right opportunities — whether it’s clients, recruiters, collaborators, or thought leadership visibility. 
Review and enhance each section: headline, about section, experience, featured content, and skills. Make the headline scroll-stopping with a mix of what I do, who I help, and what makes me different. Rewrite the ‘About’ section to sound like a compelling story, using a confident but approachable tone — highlight key achievements, values, and the impact of my work, not just roles. Suggest how to reframe my work experience using quantifiable results and action verbs. Recommend what kind of media to feature (e.g., posts, articles, links) to boost credibility. Include tips for profile SEO (keywords recruiters search), and suggest 2–3 things I can post weekly to stay top of mind. End with one thought-provoking tagline or summary sentence that I can pin or reuse across platforms.
