Welcome to the Tech Latest podcast. Every Tuesday, we deliver the hottest trends and news from the tech sector.

In this episode, Katey Creel joins Yifan Yu from Silicon Valley for the first regular U.S.-focused edition of Tech Latest. They discuss what investors will be watching as Big Tech earnings season heats up, whether AI companies can justify massive spending on data centers and infrastructure, speculation around a potential Tesla-SpaceX tie-up and how growing opposition to data centers is becoming a political issue ahead of the U.S. midterm elections.
