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.

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.

For decades, the technology industry lived and breathed by the cadence of a few select “can’t-miss” events. We remember the peak of COMDEX, the frenzy of early Macworlds, and, most importantly for the silicon world, the Intel Developer Forum (IDF).
