Musk Loses to OpenAI, Google Kills Search, Starlink Scares Telecom Giants

Elon Musk loses his legal battle against OpenAI, but says the fight is far from over. Google unveils the biggest change to Search in 25 years, replacing the familiar list of blue links with AI-powered agentic search that could transform how people research, shop, and buy online. Starlink’s rapid expansion into direct-to-device satellite connectivity appears to have pushed America’s biggest telecom carriers into defensive action. And new research suggests data centres may be making nearby neighbourhoods measurably hotter.

In today’s Hashtag Trending, Jim Love breaks down four stories reshaping technology, AI, telecom, and infrastructure.
