The race to build the world’s most powerful AI infrastructure has moved out of labs and into entire campuses, and Microsoft’s new Fairwater facility in Wisconsin is the clearest expression yet of that shift — a purpose-built AI factory that stitches together hundreds of thousands of...

Oracle’s sudden emergence as a credible AI cloud contender has shifted the conversation: a company long defined by databases is now pitching a bold, capital‑intensive roadmap that — if every assumption holds — could place Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) among the industry’s leaders for AI...

Skate. Early Access is landing on PC with a surprisingly accessible set of system requirements: the developers have published a four‑tier spec table (Minimum → Medium → Recommended → Ultra) that targets everything from 1080p/30 on low settings to 4K/60 on ultra settings, and the headline...

Oracle’s latest earnings didn’t just move markets — they rewrote the rules for how a decades‑old enterprise software vendor can pivot into the center of the AI cloud arms race. (investor.oracle.com) Background / Overview In fiscal Q1 2026 (quarter ended Aug. 31, 2025) Oracle reported a set of...

Microsoft’s decision to lease billions in third‑party GPUs rather than wait for its own silicon to arrive is a deliberate, high‑stakes move to keep Azure at the center of the AI economy—even if it means compressing near‑term cloud margins and increasing capital intensity across the balance...

Microsoft’s surprise agreement with Nebius to supply large blocks of AI compute to Azure marks a strategic pivot: rather than racing to open more hyperscale data centers itself, Microsoft is contracting external “neocloud” capacity to close short-term gaps in U.S. availability while it...

Microsoft’s advisory listing for a DirectX Graphics Kernel race-condition that could permit local elevation of privilege — referenced by the CVE identifier the user provided (CVE-2025-55223) — cannot be located in Microsoft’s public Security Update Guide pages that are accessible without...

xAI’s decision to plant an engineering flag in Seattle this week marks a consequential expansion for Elon Musk’s fast-moving AI startup—one that arrives at the intersection of talent, cloud partnerships, and high-profile litigation that together will shape how Grok and xAI compete in the...

Microsoft’s AI unit has publicly launched two in‑house models — MAI‑Voice‑1 and MAI‑1‑preview — signaling a deliberate shift from purely integrating third‑party frontier models toward building product‑focused models Microsoft can own, tune, and route inside Copilot and Azure. (theverge.com)...

Tech detective or headline shorthand? Here’s what’s actually changing under the hood — and what you can do about it. A popular write‑up on Touch Reviews summarizes a claim by a tech creator (named in that piece as “epcidiy”) that Windows 11’s perceived sluggishness — slow right‑click menus...

Broadcom’s broadside from the VMware Explore stage in Las Vegas was blunt: enterprises should stop reflexively running to the public cloud and instead bring AI and modern apps back on-premises with VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF). (crn.com) (news.broadcom.com) Background Broadcom completed its...

Microsoft Azure and NVIDIA have quietly become the engine room for a new wave of scientific discovery — and three startups in the Catalyst series show how GPU-accelerated cloud infrastructure is being used to translate raw data into concrete outcomes in medicine, biology, and digital...

Elon Musk has a new shot across Microsoft’s bow, and this time it has a name tailor‑made for memes and search engines alike: Macrohard—a “purely AI software company,” as he described it in a post on X, pitched to simulate the work of a software giant entirely with autonomous AI agents. He framed...

Microsoft’s Copilot+ PC pitch promised a new class of Windows machines where on-device intelligence — powered by dedicated NPUs — would deliver privacy-friendly, instant AI features that change how we use a laptop every day. After a year of hands-on testing and watching Microsoft’s rollout, the...

OpenAI’s decision to run ChatGPT and its API on Google Cloud — alongside Microsoft Azure, CoreWeave, and Oracle — marks a decisive shift from single-provider reliance to a multi-cloud infrastructure designed to relieve crushing compute demand, reduce vendor risk, and squeeze performance and cost...

Microsoft has published an advisory for CVE-2025-50172: a vulnerability in the DirectX Graphics Kernel that permits authorized attackers to cause a denial‑of‑service (DoS) by allocating graphics resources without limits or throttling, potentially disrupting hosts and virtualized workloads that...

Ollama’s latest Windows 11 GUI makes running local LLMs far more accessible, but the single biggest lever for speed on a typical desktop is not a faster GPU driver or a hidden setting — it’s the model’s context length. Shortening the context window from tens of thousands of tokens to a few...
