Apple-Intel Deal, GPS Interference and AI’s Entry-Level Job Shakeup
The tech industry is facing pressure across hardware, infrastructure and the workforce.
On this episode of Techstrong Gang, hosts Alan Shimel and Mike Vizard, joined by Stephen Foskett, Jon Swartz and Elizabeth Safran, examine three stories that show how quickly the ground is shifting. The first segment, Apple of Trump Eye, looks at the reported Apple-Intel chip deal and the “RAMmageddon” pressures hitting the broader technology supply chain.
The second segment, GPS Interference, focuses on orbital visibility, satellite tracking and the growing challenge of accountability as space infrastructure becomes more strategically important.
The final segment, AI Job Market, turns to the future of entry-level work. As AI changes how companies hire and what skills they expect, students and early-career workers may need more real-world experience before they even get their first role.
Taken together, these stories show how technology strategy is no longer limited to software. It now reaches deep into chips, space infrastructure and the structure of the labor market.
