Alphabet’s AI Investment, Amazon’s Bee Wearable and Skin Cancer AI

In this episode, we discuss Alphabet’s massive AI investment, Amazon’s acquisition of Bee and a Scotland research team’s AI-powered skin cancer diagnostic device. We break down Alphabet’s plan to ramp up AI infrastructure spending by $10 billion to boost Google Cloud and custom TPUs, and explore how this AI cloud push positions the company against rivals like Microsoft. We analyze Amazon’s return to wearables with the Bee wristband, an AI-assisted device that transcribes and summarizes conversations and hints at Alexa integration. And we highlight the offline machine learning model running on a Raspberry Pi camera for early skin cancer detection in remote areas, showcasing the potential of AI-driven healthcare tools to improve global health equity.
