Alphabet just closed the largest equity offering in history, pulling in $85 billion across two tranches to fund its AI infrastructure expansion. The initial $40 billion target was oversubscribed by...
A new browser-based attack named FROST (fingerprinting remotely using OPFS-based SSD timing) demonstrates how JavaScript can infer which websites and applications a user has open by measuring...
When OpenClaw hit the scene in early 2026, it gave senior engineers a raw look at what happens when you let an AI agent run without guardrails. The project lost steam after OpenAI hired its founder,...
At Build 2026, Microsoft rolled out seven in-house models, signaling a strategic pivot from its long-standing reliance on OpenAI. The flagship, MAI-Thinking-1, is a medium-sized model designed for...
A coalition of mathematicians has published a formal declaration warning that AI systems are undermining the integrity of mathematical research, raising questions about how data pipelines and ML...
A new executive order from President Trump directs frontier AI labs like OpenAI and Anthropic to submit their most advanced models to the government for security assessments—covering cybersecurity,...
The enterprise AI push is real, but the difference between a demo and production value comes down to one thing: the system architecture. Anyone can call an API. The hard part is building a governed,...
At Build 2026, Microsoft pulled back the curtain on Project Solara, its bet on a unified platform for AI agents—a direct answer to the shift from app-centric to agent-centric computing. The company...
Microsoft has unveiled the Surface RTX Spark Dev Box, a miniature PC targeting developers who need to run large language models locally. The device is powered by Nvidia’s Arm-based RTX Spark chip,...
Anthropic is scaling Project Glasswing, its AI-powered vulnerability discovery initiative, from an initial cohort of 50 partners to roughly 150 new organizations across 15 countries. The expansion...
Two years ago, AI projects lived in sandboxed clusters, isolated from production traffic. Latency spikes were a research inconvenience. Today, that same model might be controlling a robotic arm on a...
Microsoft is entering the high-performance Arm PC segment with the Surface Laptop Ultra, a system built around Nvidia’s RTX Spark chip. While Dell, Asus, Lenovo, and others are also designing around...
Alphabet announced Monday it will issue $80 billion in stock to fund its AI infrastructure expansion, a move that reflects the growing tension between massive compute demand and balance sheet...
Anthropic has agreed to provide the European Union with access to its flagship AI model, Mythos, following sustained pressure from EU regulators concerned about cybersecurity risks. The European...
JetBrains just released Mellum2, a 12-billion-parameter Mixture-of-Experts model trained from scratch on natural language and code. The headline number for engineers is the active parameter count:...
For the past two years, the data engineering community has watched LLM context windows grow from 4K to 1M tokens. The assumption was simple: more context equals better reasoning. But in production...
At Snowflake Summit this year, the combined Fivetran and dbt Labs team made several announcements that signal a shift toward a more performant, cost-efficient, and AI-ready data infrastructure....
The all-stock merger between Fivetran and dbt Labs, announced last October, is now official. The combined entity will operate under the Fivetran + dbt Labs banner, with George Fraser as CEO and...
SoftBank CEO Masayoshi Son told CNBC on Monday that the current wave of AI infrastructure investment is roughly 50 times larger than the dot-com boom of the early 2000s. Speaking in Paris, Son framed...
For years, AI scaled on GPU flops. That era is ending. In 2026, the dominant constraint isn't compute—it's getting data to and from processors fast enough, and keeping the lights on. Data movement...
