BROADCOM SEEKS $50B+ IN FINANCING FOR OPENAI’S CUSTOM AI CHIPS: WSJ Apollo and Blackstone are among the lenders $AVGO has approached about participating. The financing could cover several gigawatts of chip capacity, with a deal expected before year-end. Discussions remain early, and the amount could change. OpenAI’s chip program is internally known as “Nexus,” with its first two generations named “Jalapeño” and “Serrano.” The companies previously announced a partnership to develop 10 GW of custom AI chips using Broadcom’s networking technology, with deployments planned from the second half of 2026 through 2029. The financing push comes as OpenAI looks to own more of its computing infrastructure to lower costs and reduce reliance on cloud providers. Source: WSJ.

From WSJ: “The widespread popular dissatisfaction with the working of modern American capitalism may be the product of some real, objective problems in the way American capitalism is working: income and wealth inequality on a scale not seen in a century; the concentration of economic, cultural and increasingly political power in a class of technology leaders whose products are dissolving the bonds that keep society together; the tightening nexus between business elites and the people who control the political process; rampant corruption and a political establishment that doesn’t seem interested in accountability; the revival, after decades of stable prices, of inflationary pressures that are pushing the cost of living to painful levels—and not only for those with a taste for luxury burritos.”

RELIGHT: PIII 1L gastric cancer 🇨🇳, now published in JCO. "Positive", but put it next to CheckMate and it suddenly loses its luster. Retlirafusp is a PD-L1/TGF-B bispecific. The study randomized 731 patients with HER2-negative gastric/GEJ adenocarcinoma to retlirafusp + CAPOX vs placebo + CAPOX. OS 16.8 vs 10.4 mo, HR 0.53 PFS 7.6 vs 5.5 mo, HR 0.52 Looking at the Chinese cohort in CheckMate-649, CPS ≥5 cohort (nivo + chemo vs chemo) results are strikingly similar: OS 15.5 vs 9.6 mo, HR 0.54 PFS 8.5 vs 4.3 mo, HR 0.52 Given a plain PD-1 inhibitor produced essentially the same hazard ratios here it is hard to see what TGF-β is adding. Chemo alone hasn't been standard for years, and the authors acknowledge the protocol was locked before PD-1 + chemo became SoC in China. RELIGHT shows retlirafusp beats chemo; we already knew that. Why am I posting about it? Well, it is another striking example that China has woken up to clinical trials and is running laps around the rest of the world in terms of speed, cost and efficiency. Anyone who has watched a trial sit in contracting for months knows reform is overdue (someone please teach me how to efficiently move legal forward). @OncoAlert @TheGutOncLab @Onco_Nexus

Nexus Mods has reacted to the deluge of AI mods by enforcing mandatory disclosure for mods with AI-assisted code, and letting users filter AI-assisted mods out of their search criteria or preferences.

Nexus banned a mod that replaces the Pride flags in the game. The mod replaces the artwork for all 20 included Pride profile entries with the game's existing Dad's Home poster artwork. It covers small and large emblems, banners, and banner previews (84 texture assets in total). The creator says it was banned for “discriminatory content” and argues that all they did was replace the textures with something “a little more wholesome”. You gotta admit the double standards in Nexus Mods, it’s so funny that they selectively ban and censor what they want. If it were the reverse with Pride flags, they would allow it.
