Hassabis: AGI is still broadly expected around 2030, with 2029 now possible

Google DeepMind CEO Demis Hassabis told Axios after Google I/O 2026 that his view on the timeline for artificial general intelligence (AGI) remains “broadly” around 2030, but he now also sees 2029 as a possibility. Of the three sources, the first two directly corroborate this timeline and its rationale; the third only mentions AI-agent trends at Google I/O 2026 and does not directly address the AGI forecast.

Software stocks’ “reversal” trade sentiment heats up ahead of and after Salesforce and Snowflake earnings

Three CNBC reports point in the same direction: around their 2026-05-27 earnings releases, Salesforce and Snowflake are being treated by the market as key checkpoints for whether software-stock sentiment and IGV-related names can reverse. Options activity is elevated and bullish sentiment is building, but whether that means the “SaaS-pocalypse” is over still depends on the market’s post-earnings reaction. The sources also note that investors are watching growth, guidance, and enterprise AI demand, but they do not reach a confirmed conclusion on whether a new bull market has begun.

Lisuan Tech’s First In-House GPU, the LX 7G100, Sells Out and Draws Reviews: Compatibility Is Taking Shape, but Performance Still Trails Mainstream Nvidia GPUs

After the launch of Lisuan Tech’s first self-developed graphics card, the Lisuan LX 7G100, media outlets and reviewers focused on its sell-out status, compatibility, and performance. Three sources consistently confirm that the card has been sold publicly and that the company said the first 30,000 units were sold out. It also appears to support Windows, DirectX 12, Vulkan, OpenCL, and OpenGL. On performance, sources indicate it can come close to the Nvidia RTX 3060 in some tests, but it still struggles to compete with mainstream Nvidia GPUs overall. Claims that it is explicitly positioned against the RTX 4060, as well as more complete benchmark details, could not be fully confirmed from the available sources.

Germany’s Sovereign Cloud and Sovereign AI Move in Parallel: New Thales/Google Entity Launches, Deutsche Telekom and SAP Win Government Project

Three sources point to the latest development in Germany’s digital sovereignty agenda: Thales and Google Cloud have launched a new cloud services entity in Germany that is legally and operationally independent from Google; meanwhile, Deutsche Telekom and SAP have secured a government-related sovereign AI project. The sources corroborate the core facts, but provide no further verifiable details on project scope, government agency names, technical architecture, or commercial terms, so those points can only be marked as not mentioned in the sources.
