AI & Tech Frontier
Nvidia is creating a dedicated industrial AI cloud in Germany using 10,000 GPUs, including DGX B200 and RTX Pro servers.
The cloud will support industrial use cases like robotics, digital twins, and simulation-heavy tasks through platforms like Omniverse.
This move is part of Nvidia’s strategy to power AI-driven industries and position itself as a core infrastructure provider.
Wikipedia halted its AI-generated article summaries after backlash from editors over accuracy and trust issues.
The summaries were part of a limited mobile experiment but faced immediate criticism for introducing unverified or biased content.
The decision highlights Wikipedia’s ongoing commitment to community-based content moderation over automated systems.
Most enterprise AI agents fail to go live due to complex, manual evaluation processes and lack of trust in outcomes.
Databricks introduced “Agent Bricks,” a platform that automates agent evaluation, benchmarking, and optimization using synthetic data.
The goal is to help companies confidently deploy AI agents at scale without deep technical tuning.
Amazon has increased the number of ads on Prime Video, doubling ad breaks from about 3 minutes to 6 minutes per hour.
The increase follows the company's global ad rollout in early 2024 and was shared with advertisers while being kept low-key with subscribers.
Amazon is exploring new ad formats, including interactive and contextually targeted ads, starting with markets like the UK.
Nvidia believes physical AI—used in robotics, automation, and digital twins—could become a $50 trillion market.
The company is leveraging its platforms like Omniverse, Isaac, and RTX servers to enable development of real-world AI systems.
Nvidia’s strategy focuses on moving from just chips to end-to-end AI infrastructure for the next industrial revolution.
Scientists used AI to reanalyse black hole data from the Event Horizon Telescope, generating a new image of the Milky Way’s core.
The findings suggest Sagittarius A*, our galaxy’s central black hole, is spinning near its theoretical maximum.
This marks a major advancement in astrophysics, showing how AI can extract meaningful insights from complex or discarded data.
Business Briefs
Coco Robotics, a startup focused on last-mile delivery using autonomous sidewalk robots, has raised $80 million in new funding.
The company plans to scale its robot fleet, expand into new urban markets, and enhance its AI systems for efficient navigation and delivery.
Backed by high-profile investors including Sam Altman, Coco aims to be a major player in the future of on-demand, low-cost urban logistics.
Former President Donald Trump announced a tentative agreement with China to end the long-standing trade war, which includes maintaining a 55% effective tariff on Chinese goods.
China has agreed to resume exports of critical rare earth minerals and magnets, along with continuing student exchange programs and easing tariffs on U.S. imports to 10%.
The deal still awaits formal approval by both Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping, with hopes it will stabilise strained economic ties and global markets.
A course for beginners on practical Deep Learning
Did You Know? If Amazon had only stuck to selling books when it launched in 1995, it might never have become a trillion-dollar company. Today, over 50% of its revenue comes from services like cloud computing (AWS), advertising, and subscriptions—not retail sales.
Till next time.
