SUPER MICRO COMPUTER INC.

📉Super Micro Computer Inc.’s $50 Billion Collapse

Super Micro Computer Inc., an equipment supplier for data center operations, has become the first major example that the AI hype isn’t justified.

Key Details:

• Super Micro Computer Inc. was added to the S&P 500 after an AI hype cycle lifted the stock by more than 2,000% in two years.

• The company reached a stock price of $118.81 with a market value of almost $70 billion.

• However, the stock price is down 75% since then, pushing the market value to roughly $17 billion.

• The stock plummeted by more than 33% after Super Micro Inc. disclosed that Ernst & Young Global Ltd. (EY), a Big Four global accounting firm auditing the company, said it was “unwilling to be associated with the financial statements prepared by management.”

• Now, Super Micro Computer Inc. is at risk of being delisted from the Nasdaq, one of the world’s largest stock exchanges for technology companies.

Why It’s Important:

• Hindenburg Research reported that Super Micro Computer Inc. showcased “glaring accounting red flags and evidence of undisclosed party transactions.”

• The huge debate over Super Micro Computer Inc.’s situation is whether the company is just another classic example of “cooking the books” or it’s the first major example of an AI hype cycle.

OFF RADIO KRAKÓW

📻Radio Station Replaces Everyone With AI Hosts

Off Radio Kraków, a radio station in Poland’s second-largest city, launched a first-ever radio channel entirely run by three AI hosts.

Key Details:

• It was run by three AI hosts who each had their own two-hour weekly music show:

  1. Emilia Nowak: a 20-year-old pop culture enthusiast who discusses the world of fashion, cinema, and music.

  2. Jakub Zieliński: a 22-year-old acoustic engineering expert curious about the latest advancements in music production.

  3. Alex Szulc: a 23-year-old psychology fanatic interested in the culture and society surrounding the LGBTQAI+ community.

• Former station journalist Mateusz Demski started an online petition against the three AI hosts that gained over 23,000 signatures in a few days.

• Poland’s Digital Affairs Minister and Deputy Prime Minister Krzysztof Gawkowski called for AI regulations, even posting on X: “The widespread use of AI must be done for people, not against them.”

• Off Radio Kraków halted the experiment, explaining that “we collected enough opinions, observations, and conclusions within a week that continuing made little sense.”

Why It’s Important:

• This intense reaction shows the glaring widespread anxiety around AI replacing human workers.

• Off Radio Kraków explained that it didn’t remove human hosts because of AI but because of the “near-zero” ratings. The three AI hosts aimed to attract young listeners.

AI RESEARCH

🦾Wearable Ultrasonic Tech for Muscle Monitoring

Engineers at the University of California San Diego (UCSD) developed a wearable ultrasonic device that provides long-term, wireless monitoring of muscle activity without the need for invasive procedures. It’s powered by a small battery and is designed to stick to the skin with a layer of adhesive.

The wearable ultrasonic device was worn over the rib cage to monitor diaphragm motion and assess respiratory health. “By tracking diaphragm activity, the wearable ultrasonic device could potentially support patients with respiratory conditions,” said Joseph Wang, professor in the Aiiso Yufeng Li Family Department of Chemical and Nano Engineering at UCSD.

When worn on the forearm, this wearable ultrasonic device can accurately monitor muscle motion in the hands and wrists. It can also be used to control a robotic arm and play a virtual game.

It may offer a promising new alternative to the current clinical standard, ElectroMyoGraphy (EMG), which measures muscle response to nervous stimulation by inserting needle electrodes through the skin into muscles.
