A recap of @AIRacingTech vs Purdue AI Racing at #CES2025 Indy Autonomous Challenge. In just 1:20 minutes, Purdue attached at 142mph, and AI Racing Tech returned the favor at 163mph, the best top speed for both teams! Congrats to both teams for incredible hard work!

Berkeley Teaching AI (https://t.co/XdrPVChmwD) makes deploying AI models for learning applications pain-free. Our high school Ambassadors were able to create their own LLM services for Berkeley's ROAR Academy Summer School for AI. Take a watch about their story:

In 2024, the U.S. allocated approximately $216.1 billion to the Air Force, including funding for operations, maintenance, procurement, and research, as part of the Department of Defense's $841.4 billion budget. This figure excludes additional Space Force funding ($30.1 billion). Canada's total military expenditure for 2024 was approximately $29.3 billion USD (1.3% of GDP), covering all branches of the Canadian Armed Forces, including the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF). Specific RCAF funding is not isolated in available data but is a fraction of the total, with estimates suggesting 20-25% of Canada's defense budget (roughly $5.9-$7.3 billion USD) goes to air force-related activities, based on historical allocations.

The U.S. Air Force budget is thus roughly 30-36 times larger than Canada's air force spending, reflecting the U.S.'s global military commitments and larger GDP (3.4% on defense) compared to Canada's regional focus and lower defense priority. Exact RCAF figures are less precise due to integrated budgeting, but the disparity is stark.[](https://t.co/471MdzvLmT)[](https://t.co/QpI8js87B3)

Taking a cue from @MarkRober's Tesla wall crash, I couldn’t resist diving into the action myself. I set up an experiment to recreate the crash and test if I’d get the same outcome. Check out the video to see how it all unfolds!

I’m excited to hear your thoughts in the comments—drop your reactions and maybe even spark an idea for my next big video!

@rshereme I hope you are not saying American girls deserve to be hurt by protestors like Russians?

@P_Kallioniemi You are on his platform. What was the old saying: action speaks louder than words

@wholemars I wonder what the police will tell you when you have a null date on your drivers license?
