Microsoft’s Maia 200 has moved from lab talk to production racks — and CEO Satya Nadella was explicit that the move won’t end long-standing partnerships with Nvidia or AMD, even as Microsoft touts aggressive performance claims for its new inference accelerator. m])
Background / Overview...
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang’s blunt framing of Taiwan and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) as the indispensable backbone of the advanced AI chip supply chain cut through months of “reshoring” rhetoric and put a spotlight on a harsh reality: you can subsidize fabs, but you cannot...
Amazon is reportedly in early discussions to invest roughly $10 billion in OpenAI — a move that, if completed, would reshape the cloud-and-AI battlefield by giving Amazon a direct financial stake in the company behind ChatGPT and opening the door for OpenAI to use AWS infrastructure and Amazon’s...
Microsoft has quietly shifted its Windows release playbook: the Canary-channel preview currently showing as Windows 11, version 26H1, is not a typical consumer-facing feature update but a platform-only release — codenamed Bromine — built primarily to enable next‑generation Arm and AI‑focused...
NVIDIA’s stranglehold on the AI chip market is no accident — it was built on superior silicon, a vast software moat and a perfect timing of demand — but cracks are appearing in the foundations as hyperscalers, geopolitics and emerging regional champions all push back against a single-vendor...
Microsoft’s latest lab demos show microfluidics — routing liquid through microscopic channels etched into silicon — moving from academic curiosity toward practical tooling for the next generation of AI hardware, a test that promises to reduce cooling overhead, enable higher chip density, and...
