Nvidia Earnings Seen as Next Big AI Spark
This article first appeared on GuruFocus. Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) is back in the spotlight with earnings coming up on August 27, and Wedbush thinks the report could be the next big spark for the stock. Analysts there say the AI story is still in the second inning of a nine-inning game, with plenty of growth left as more companies and governments pile into the spending boom. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 7 Warning Signs with AMD. The Street expects Nvidia to deliver $1.01 a share on $45.9 billion in revenue. That would underscore just how much demand has surged for its chips as Big Tech pours nearly $350 billion into AI capex this year. Wedbush argues the cavalry is still coming, with enterprises worldwide only starting to step up their AI budgets. Even after Nvidia, Palantir (NASDAQ:PLTR), and AMD (NASDAQ:AMD) sold off Tuesday in a round of profit-taking, Wedbush called the dip a buying chance. They see trillions of dollars in AI infrastructure, software, and power spend fueling the tech bull cycle for at least another two to three years volatility or not.

Coinbase Just Flipped the Script--Is This the Real Killer App for Crypto?
This article first appeared on GuruFocus. Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN) is making its boldest bet yet: that stablecoinsthose tame, dollar-pegged cousins in crypto's otherwise wild Westcould become the lifeblood of the AI economy. At its recent Crypto x AI hackathon in Brooklyn, the company gave a glimpse into this future. About 100 developers, some flying in from as far as Italy and Malaysia, stayed up through the sweltering August weekend coding AI tools and bots that transact using digital dollars. At the center of it all was x402, Coinbase's new open-source protocol designed to let machines settle in stablecoins over the internetinstantly, without banks, and for pennies. Warning! GuruFocus has detected 7 Warning Signs with COIN. This isn't a marketing gimmick. For Coinbase, it's a strategic pivot away from the highs and lows of trading revenue, and into infrastructure with real-world use cases. With the U.S. now having passed its first federal stablecoin law, the regulatory fog is beginning to liftand the race is on. Stripe recently acquired Bridge and is reportedly building its own blockchain. PayPal launched its own stablecoin, leaning into distribution. But Coinbase's approach focuses on developers. It wants to be the go-to toolkitthe AWS of programmable payments. According to Nemil Dalal, who leads Coinbase's Developer Platform, this is the logical next step in co-founder Brian Armstrong's decade-old roadmap: speculation first, infrastructure second, real-world utility third. Of course, this isn't guaranteed to scale overnight. Visa and Mastercard remain formidable gatekeepers with massive reach. AI's commercial path is still taking shape. And stablecoins, while booming in countries battling inflation, remain a niche payment method in the U.S. Still, for a weekend in Brooklyn, the momentum looked real. Hackathon teams built bots that could charge per query, marketplaces that didn't need banks, and tools that paid creators instantly. The message was hard to miss: crypto might finally be shedding its casino image, and Coinbase is positioning itself to power what comes next.

House panel eyes AI use in rental car damage assessments
A House Oversight panel is seeking information from a major car rental company about its use of artificial intelligence (AI) to inspect cars for damage. The Subcommittee on Cybersecurity, Information Technology, and Government Innovation recently requested a meeting with officials from Hertz to discuss the technology's use. 'Some other car rental companies reportedly use AI as a tool but require human staff to review any damage flagged by the scanning system before billing customers; however, Hertz is apparently the only car rental company in the U.S. that issues damage assessments to customers without human review,' Subcommittee Chair Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) wrote in a letter to Hertz CEO Gil West. Hertz's AI scanners, which the company has been rolling out in airports this year, assess automobiles as the exit and enter the location, then quickly charge the user based on AI-documented damage without an independent review from a human. Reports have spread since the scanning system began about questionable charges over damages detected by AI. MotorTrend reported in April that the scanners measure treadwear and can analyze a car's undercarriage, body and glass. The system is powered by Israeli tech company UVeye.
