 - Kevin Crowley, Bloomberg Senior Oil Reporter, discusses Chevron planning to invest $7 billion over the next five years to more than double crude production in Venezuela through its joint venture partnerships.

-Woo Jin Ho, Bloomberg Intelligence Senior Hardware and Networking Analyst, recaps Dell earnings. Dell Technologies Inc. shares jumped after the company boosted its annual sales forecast by $25 billion due to surging demand for servers to run artificial intelligence tasks.

The AI server forecast represents a threefold increase over the prior year, and the company has booked more than $130 billion in AI server orders over the past 12 months.

- Mark Gurman, Bloomberg News Managing Editor for Global Consumer Tech, discusses John Ternus taking the reins as Apple CEO on September 1st. John Ternus won’t have much time before the company begins its annual fall product rollouts. This year the lineup will include an unusually ambitious slate of devices he’s been teasing for months internally, including the first foldable iPhone and a smart display that can recognize who’s speaking and tailor content to them. Former CEO Tim Cook told employees he will miss the role of chief executive officer but has "enormous comfort" in the leadership of his replacement, John Ternus.

-Ed Ludlow, Bloomberg Tech Anchor, discusses Anthropic agreeing to a $35 billion computing deal with Lambda, a cloud provider backed by Nvidia Corp. The deal is part of an effort to quickly expand Anthropic's AI capacity, and involves a Texas data center being developed by Hut 8. He also talks about John Ternus taking the reins as Apple CEO on September 1st.   

-Matt Henriksson, Bloomberg Intelligence Senior Medtech Analyst, discusses Medtronic earnings. According to Bloomberg Intelligence: Medtronic beating estimates and raising guidance point to expanding market share in its cardiovascular franchise, which should aid the company's pivot to its robotic strategy. Medtronic raised its outlook for organic sales growth to 7.25-7.75% from 6.75-7.25%, thanks to a 88% gain in fiscal 1Q for Cardiac Ablation Solutions, which houses pulsed field ablation tech, and an increase in the low-20% range for the Micra leadless pacemaker.

-Gautam Mukunda, Lecturer at Yale School of Management and Bloomberg Opinion contributor, discusses his column: “Big Tech Is Incapable of Solving Its Own Problem.” Bill Gates published an essay saying he would slow the development of artificial intelligence if he could, and elaborated that people who understand AI are "very worried" but few are raising issues in public. A bipartisan coalition of attorneys general announced a proposed settlement with Meta Platforms Inc. that obligates the company to put restrictions on how children use its platforms, including a two-hour default daily limit and a block from midnight to 6 a.m. The tech industry's lack of self-regulation and prioritization of profit over safety has led to public opposition, with many Americans saying they don't trust AI leaders and opposing data center construction.
