Italy's prime minister, by contrast, is having to perform the most excruciating dance - between Italian voter opinion and what she believes is in her country's and her own best interest on the world stage. So far, Giorgia Meloni has kept a very low profile on the US-Israeli attacks on Iran. She is one of the few leaders in Europe to have a truly warm relationship with Donald Trump.

Qualcomm Inc. (NASDAQ:QCOM) is positioning robotics as its next major growth engine, with CEO Cristiano Amon signaling the business could scale meaningfully within two years. Beyond Smartphones: Qualcomm Bets On Robotics Amon said robotics will become a "larger opportunity" for the company within the next two years as it expands beyond smartphones. In January, Qualcomm introduced a robotics processor under its Dragonwing brand, aiming to develop a chipset that can run across multiple robotics platforms—an approach similar to how its Snapdragon processors power a wide range of smartphones. "I think robotics will start to get scale within the next two years," Amon told CNBC on Monday when asked when the segment could become meaningful for Qualcomm. "I think it's going to become like a larger opportunity within two years," he added at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. AI Advances Drive Robotics Growth Analysts have projected significant long-term growth for the sector. McKinsey estimates the general-purpose robotics market could reach $370 billion by 2040, while RBC Capital Markets forecasts a $9 trillion total addressable market for humanoid robots by 2050. Robots rely on advanced processors and complex engineering, and recent advances in AI models—often described as physical AI—have made them more capable. "People have said just robotics alone could be a trillion-dollar opportunity in terms of market size … the reality is, we see now, because of physical AI, robots have become a lot more useful," Amon said. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has also identified robotics as a major future growth area for his company. QCOM Price Action Qualcomm shares were down 2.15% at $138.00 during premarket trading on Tuesday, according to Benzinga Pro data. Negative sentiment is driven by Qualcomm's warning that booming AI data center memory demand is diverting supply away from consumer electronics, intensifying an already tight memory market, and deepening shortages.

It's a bear vs. a hound in today's battle royale! Reasonably priced artificial intelligence (AI) growth stocks are rare breeds these days, as share prices of AI stocks have skyrocketed. However, two niche AI companies haven't seen the explosive growth of these heavy hitters ... at least, not yet. Shares of AI voice recognition specialist SoundHound AI (SOUN +0.12%) are trading up just 14.7% over the last five years, while defense and security-focused BigBear.ai's (BBAI +3.54%) stock is down 62%. But only one of these niche AI players is likely to make you rich. The battle SoundHound has developed a voice AI chatbot that's primarily used for placing restaurant orders by phone or at a drive-thru window, and in cars as a hands-free voice assistant. However, the company is trying to branch out into other industries, particularly finance and insurance. Expand NASDAQ : SOUN SoundHound AI Today's Change ( 0.12 %) $ 0.01 Current Price $ 8.61 Key Data Points Market Cap $3.6B Day's Range $ 7.78 - $ 8.64 52wk Range $ 6.52 - $ 22.17 Volume 2.5K Avg Vol 25M Gross Margin 33.07 % Meanwhile, BigBear.ai has been very successful in the niche markets where it operates. Its TrueFace AI-powered facial recognition platform is in use at security screening checkpoints at numerous U.S. airports, including O'Hare International Airport in Chicago, one of the busiest in the country. The Department of Defense uses its ConductorOS edge computing platform to ensure secure communications in remote locations. The problem for BigBear.ai -- and one likely reason its revenue has been falling in recent quarters -- is that these defense-focused applications aren't really useful to a wider market. SoundHound's AI-powered voice chatbot, on the other hand, has the chance to be adopted by nearly any business that could benefit from a no-wait customer service help line. That's why, even though SoundHound's technology faces a lot of potential competition, it's the winner of this battle.

From 22m ago 11.05 GMT Ukraine's Zelenskyy warns Iran conflict could disrupt weapons flow to Ukraine Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy has warned that the US involvement against Iran could disrupt the flow of weapons that Ukraine needs to continue defending itself against Russian invasion. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy attends a press conference in Kyiv, Ukraine on Monday. Photograph: Andrew Kravchenko/EPA In an interview with Corriere della Sera, Zelenskyy said that the previous conflict between Israel and Iran last year “slowed down” deliveries to Ukraine. This time, “it has not happened yet, but I fear it could,” he told the Italian newspaper. Zelenskyy also said the war leaves Russia’s Vladimir Putin “weaker”, showing that he is “a weak ally” who “talks, but doesn’t act.” He said that the next trilateral meeting with the US and Russia was still planned for early March, although it may no longer be held in Abu Dhabi. He expressed his preferenced to hold them in Geneva or elsewhere in Europe, suggesting Austria, the Vatican or Turkey as potential locations. Zelenskyy also responded to growing criticms from Hungary and Slovakia over the Druzhba pipeline, insisting that it was not operational as a result of Russian bombings. He said he made it clear to the Slovak prime minister, Robert Fico, that “to repair it, a ceasefire is needed and this must be made clear to Putin.” Hungary’s Orbán and Slovakia’s Fico are the only two EU leaders that kept engaging with Russia and Putin during the war, including visits to Moscow. On Monday, Fico requested an urgent meeting with the European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen to discuss the pipeline’s status. Earlier, he also spoke on the phone with Zelenskyy, with the pair discussing a potential meeting in person. On Tuesday, Orbán also asked the commission to intervene, doubling down on his threat to block all EU decisions related to Ukraine until the situation is resolved. Share Updated at 11.10 GMT 8m a...
