Quick Glance: New EPA Rules Target Emissions Reduction at Power Plants

The Biden administration aims to compel coal-fired power plants to capture smokestack emissions or close down.

The rules target limiting greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuel power plants and reducing toxic pollutants from coal-fired plants.

The plan includes measures to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, toxic wastewater pollutants, and safely manage coal ash.

The actions are expected to face opposition from industry groups and Republican-leaning states, while environmental groups see it as a crucial step in combating climate change.

iPhone sales are plunging. Here’s why: Apple’s smartphone sales tumbled 10% last quarter, according to market research firm IDC, as sales in China fell sharply.

cnn.com/2024/04/15/tech/iphone-sales-plunging/

Quick Glance: iPhone sales plummet. Here's why

Apple’s smartphone sales dropped by 10% last quarter, primarily due to a sharp decline in sales in China.

Samsung had been the top smartphone manufacturer for 12 years, but Apple briefly took the top spot last year.

The global smartphone market is showing signs of recovery with a 7.8% increase in smartphone shipments in the first quarter of 2024.

Despite expectations for Apple and Samsung to maintain their market dominance, the rise of Huawei and other Chinese manufacturers like Xiaomi and OPPO/OnePlus may continue.

Quick Glance: AI Revolutionizing Call Centers: TCS Insights

The head of Tata Consultancy Services predicts chatbots will reduce the need for human call center agents significantly, revolutionizing the industry.

TCS's generative AI projects have doubled in value to $900 million by March, highlighting the increasing demand for tech talent and the need for workforce training.

Reports suggest that overall IT services growth is affected by global uncertainties like inflation, war, and elections, leading to a decline in spending and slower revenue growth for companies like TCS and Infosys.

Infosys anticipates a modest 1-3% sales growth in the upcoming financial year due to customers delaying discretionary spending on new tech projects amidst the current economic climate.

Quick Glance: TSMC Forecasts Q2 Growth Due to 'Insatiable' AI Demand

TSMC, the world's largest chipmaker, forecasts a potential up to 30% increase in sales in the second quarter, driven by strong demand for semiconductors used in artificial intelligence (AI).

The CEO of TSMC emphasized the insatiable demand for energy-efficient computing power for AI applications, stating that almost all AI innovators are collaborating with the company.

Benefiting from the AI wave, TSMC expects revenue from AI servers to surpass 20% by 2028. The company anticipates that strong demand for its 3nm and 5nm technologies will support business in the second quarter of 2024.

Forecasts for 2024 indicate TSMC's positive outlook, with expectations of revenue rising in the low- to mid-20% range. Despite sluggish smartphone demand, the company remains optimistic about the future due to the ongoing demand for advanced chip technologies.
