1. OpenAI CEO Plans Chip Factory Network

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman is seeking billions of dollars from global investors to establish a network of dedicated semiconductor manufacturing facilities. Altman is attempting to recruit "top chipmakers," which could include TSMC and Samsung. However, the talks are still in the early stages, and many details are still unclear.

Commentary: Altman's move shows OpenAI's strong desire to produce AI chips independently, which could have an impact on the global chip market landscape. However, the specific impact will depend on the outcome of the final negotiations.

2. US Peregrine Lunar Lander Burned Up

The US National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) said the Peregrine lunar lander burned up in Earth's atmosphere after returning to Earth as planned following a failed landing on the moon. The Peregrine lunar lander launched on January 8 and was originally scheduled to "soft land" on the lunar surface on February 23. However, the propulsion system malfunctioned shortly after launch.

Commentary: The failure of Peregrine reminds us that space exploration is still full of challenges. However, even though it failed, it also provided valuable experience for future missions.
