The push for more efficient power delivery is driving a major shift from traditional 12V systems to 48V architectures. This change is critical for robotics, automation, and even AI data centers. The move offers big gains but comes with new engineering challenges.
Nvidia has restructured its DGX Cloud business, moving it into its core engineering division. The move follows reports that the platform struggled to attract external customers while upsetting key cloud partners. Most capacity is now reportedly used for internal R&D.
Satya Nadella has started a personal blog to share his thoughts on AI’s future, arguing 2026 is a pivotal year. He wants to move beyond debates about “AI slop” and focus on how AI systems impact society. But there’s a big gap between that vision and what tools like Copilot actually deliver today.

Intel’s Optane promised to bridge the gap between RAM and storage with incredible speed. But confusing products and high costs led to its demise, leaving a $559 million hole.
A massive manufacturing buildout is underway, with nearly $2 billion in new investments from giants like Hitachi and Siemens. Yet lead times for large units remain over two years, and a broker claims the “shortage” is exaggerated. So what’s really going on?
OpenAI is reorganizing its internal teams to improve audio AI accuracy, a key move ahead of a major hardware push. The company’s secretive “Gumdrop” project, designed with Jony Ive, is now likely moving from Luxshare to Foxconn with a firm “not in China” manufacturing mandate.
The U.S. power grid is under immense strain from data centers, but its biggest threat might be its own workforce. High turnover and a wave of retirements are colliding with a 50% demand surge. Stability hinges on culture, not just cables.
Sam Altman sees Apple, not Google, as OpenAI’s real rival. His plan to turn ChatGPT into an app-filled operating system is ambitious, but early tests by The Wall Street Journal show it’s plagued by errors and clunky integrations. The one bright spot? A seamless Instacart experience engineered by a f
Most people use a browser powered by Chromium, but few understand what it is. It’s the open-source core that separates Google’s data collection from the essential browsing engine, creating a crucial tool for developers and privacy.
