This Week in AI: China's Lithography Heist // The Lunar Mass Driver // $15 Billion Deals

ASML has a clear lithography market dominance, but it faces potential competition from a Chinese prototype. We introduce challenger Substrate, highlight Elon Musk’s lunar mass driver concept, and critique Waymo's fundraising amid competitive pressures.

We also analyze Amazon's $10 billion investment in OpenAI and the challenges of sustaining AI operations, along with Google’s Gemini 3 release and OpenAI’s image generation model.
