Good evening!

First week of September is already over? This is your reminder for the great annual Gilmore Girls rewatch 🍂

Here are the 7 things you missed today:

1. 🚀 Broadcom Shares Soar 15% After Securing $10 Billion AI Chip Deal

If you had Broadcom stock, it was indeed a happy Friday. The 15% jump Broadcom closed up 15% after securing a $10 billion custom AI chip order, reportedly from OpenAI. This solidifies its position as a serious contender to Nvidia in the AI infrastructure race. Analysts are bullish on Broadcom’s custom silicon strategy, which could drive AI-related revenue above $40 billion in fiscal 2026. (Reuters)

2. 📈 Smart Recognition is Turning Anonymous Traffic Into Revenue

3. 📱 TikTok Tops 200M Monthly Users in Europe

Roughly one-third of the EU population is now on TikTok daily. The app still faces scrutiny under the Digital Services Act (DSA), where it’s classified as a Very Large Online Platform (VLOP) and must comply with stricter transparency, moderation, and algorithmic accountability rules. As regulatory pressure builds, TikTok’s ability to scale while maintaining compliance will be a key watchpoint for marketers and global tech operators. (TikTok Newsroom)

4. 👀 What’s Working in B2B Right Now?

5. 🚗 Qualcomm and BMW Roll Out Ride Pilot in iX3 EV

BMW’s iX3 EV will be the first to feature “Ride Pilot,” a new hands-free driving system co-developed with Qualcomm that handles lane changes, parking, and highway cruising. Already validated in over 60 countries, the system is expected to reach 100 markets by 2026, reinforcing Qualcomm’s pivot into the automotive sector. With Q3 auto revenue at $984 million and long-term projections hitting $8 billion annually by 2029, this marks a major step toward scaling its ADAS footprint. (Reuters)

6. 😲 Google’s ‘Circle to Search’ Now Auto-Translates as You Scroll

Users can now view live translations while scrolling thanks to Google’s newest update to its “Circle to Search” feature, eliminating the need to pause and reselect text. This enhancement makes browsing foreign-language content more seamless across apps, particularly useful for travel, research, and global shopping. The update also reflects Google’s broader push to embed AI-powered tools deeper into everyday mobile experiences. (TechCrunch)

7. 📉Unemployment in the U.S grows to 4.3%

The August jobs report delivered a major downside surprise, with just 22,000 jobs added (well below the expected 75,000) and the unemployment rate climbing to 4.3%, its highest level since 2021. Key sectors like manufacturing, finance, and construction saw cuts, signaling broader economic cooling. The weak report fuels speculation that the Fed may move to cut interest rates to cushion a potential slowdown. (Business Insider)
