NVIDIA has laid out a phased roadmap for converting AI data center power to 800V DC. Beyond improving transmission efficiency and cutting copper usage, the plan aims to move conversion stages out of compute racks to boost compute density, while coordinating with energy storage to handle sudden load swings.
Founded in 1993, Debian turns 33 on August 16, 2026. Founder Ian Murdock died in 2015 at age 42, but the voting system known as the "General Resolution" has prevented the core project from splitting even through the Devuan fork born of the systemd controversy. Here's how that mechanism has worked.
China's leading semiconductor foundries, SMIC and Hua Hong Semiconductor, are hitting utilization limits as AI-related and consumer/industrial demand surges. Both companies are racing to boost supply capacity through expanding existing facilities and acquisitions, but since full-scale operation takes time, the supply crunch is expected to persist.
OpenAI has disbanded the dedicated unit that assessed severe AI risks, distributing its functions across existing teams. With the dissolution of the specialized organization that handled cross-domain risk management, the focus now turns to whether the function of integrating compound threats and reporting them to leadership will be maintained going forward.
Payments giant Stripe has reportedly agreed to terms to acquire OpenRouter, which brokers comparison and use of AI models, for over $7 billion. Through this acquisition, Stripe aims to provide an end-to-end offering—from routing inference requests to metering usage and billing—monopolizing the monetization infrastructure for AI services.
World Labs unveiled R2S2R, which expands a single real-world task into thousands of virtual conditions. We examine its potential as an evaluation platform that narrows real-world testing to the most promising policies, along with its undisclosed success rates and costs.
Intel has explicitly stated that it will bring its new core, Coyote Cove, to Nova Lake desktop first. Coming right after AMD pivoted Zen 6 toward servers first, this decision represents Intel's declared priorities amid a data center market swelling with agentic AI demand and desktop enthusiasts seeking to regain trust.
Canonical predicted that the number of Ubuntu users on WSL will surpass native Ubuntu users within a few months. While default distribution status and enterprise management features are driving adoption, actual figures and calculation methods remain undisclosed.
NVIDIA's Intel stake reached approximately $29.99 billion at the end of June 2026. The roughly $24.99 billion difference from the acquisition cost is not a realized profit—it is merely a quarter-end valuation from the 13F filing.
Market chatter has emerged suggesting Google is collaborating with AMD on a next-generation TPU project. We examine what this means in light of increasing CPU workloads from reinforcement learning, AMD's heterogeneous integration expertise, and Google's existing contract with Broadcom.
