Intel's latest MLPerf Inference v6.0 scores have the Arc Pro B70 flexing 1.8x faster than its predecessor. Progress, sure — but in Nvidia's world, is this a win or just catching up?
NVIDIA's platform just swept MLPerf Inference v6.0, claiming the lowest token costs ever. But after 20 years watching Valley hype, I'm asking: who's actually banking the profits here?
Intel just dropped its 2026 EPIC Supplier Award list, a who's who of the chip world's enablers. But in a year of node delays and foundry stumbles, are these pats on the back hiding deeper cracks?
Deep inside SK Hynix's fabs, photolithography isn't just etching patterns—it's the silent gatekeeper deciding who wins the AI memory race. New Photo Tech head Hyunsok Kim calls it the 'scaling master key,' and he's betting big on it.
Data scientists drown in terabytes while CPUs choke. NVIDIA's RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Workstation Edition claims to fix that with data-center muscle at desk level — but supply woes and real-world fit raise questions.
Synthetic data's just 20% of robot AI training today. By 2030? Gartner says 90%. NVIDIA's Isaac platform bets big on it, but after 20 years watching Valley hype, I've got questions.
Picture this: Intel, battered by rivals, snags Zoom's scaling wizard Aparna Bawa to overhaul its legal, people, and culture ops. It's a bet on human horsepower in the AI chip wars.
Forget sci-fi cloaks — optical metamaterials are eyeing AI data centers, promising switches that handle 10,000 ports without moving parts. Two startups claim 50x gains over Nvidia; here's the real story.
NVIDIA's Gemma 4 tweaks promise blazing local AI without cloud crutches. But does it deliver on agentic hype?
Forget wrestling with app stores and device builds. NVIDIA's CloudXR.js hands enterprise XR to any web dev with a URL, potentially exploding adoption in training and digital twins.
Forget power-guzzling always-on cameras. Nvidia's chip wakes, spots your face, and dozes off – all in less than a blink. This is edge AI's next leap.
