For years, the technology industry has operated under the shadow of a single, green-tinted giant. NVIDIA, through a combination of visionary leadership and the early realization that GPUs were the secret sauce for parallel processing, effectively “owned” the AI market […]

MRC (Multipath Reliable Connection) is a new open networking protocol developed by OpenAI in partnership with AMD, Broadcom, Intel, Microsoft, and NVIDIA that improves GPU networking performance and resilience in large-scale AI training clusters by spreading packets across hundreds of paths simultaneously, recovering from network failures in microseconds, and enabling supercomputers with over 100,000 GPUs to be built using only two tiers of Ethernet switches.

Zyphra releases ZAYA1-8B, a reasoning Mixture of Experts model with only 760M active parameters that outperforms open-weight models many times its size on math and coding benchmarks — closing in on DeepSeek-V3.2 and surpassing Claude 4.5 Sonnet on HMMT'25 with its novel Markovian RSA test-time compute method. Trained end-to-end on AMD Instinct MI300 hardware and released under Apache 2.0, it sets a new standard for intelligence density in the small language model weight class.

The US administration has added four more AI companies to its roster of favoured suppliers, with the Pentagon signing agreements with Microsoft, Reflection AI (which has yet to release a publicly-available model), Amazon, and Nvidia that mean their products can be used on classified operations. The companies join OpenAI, xAI, and Google as companies that […]

The race to build the world’s most powerful AI factories demands networking that keeps pace with the ambitions of AI itself. NVIDIA Spectrum-X Ethernet scale-out infrastructure stands at the forefront of that race as the most advanced AI networking technology available today, deployed by industry leaders who can’t afford to compromise on performance, resilience or […]
QyTw0, the Finnish AI lab founded by former AMD Silo AI CEO Peter Sarlin, is now valued at €325 million (approximately $380 million) after raising a €25 million angel round ($29 million). It's a sign of enduring tailwinds for AI, quantum computing, and sovereign tech, especially for Europe-made companies.
