- The AI hardware crunch: CPUs join the chip shortage
AI is transitioning from chatbots to autonomous agents, increasing demand for CPUs as data centers face shortages of a previously overlooked chip that now handles most computational work.
- Your AI Isn’t My AI: The Quiet Splintering Ahead
The article discusses the impending fragmentation of large language models (LLMs) due to geopolitical and cultural factors, the shift from chatbots to autonomous agents, and the rise of sovereign AI systems like China's DeepSeek and India's Sarvam. This fragmentation leads to competing cognitive ecosystems with varying biases and governance frameworks.
- Webinar: How to Automate Exposure Validation to Match the Speed of AI Attacks
Researchers in February 2026 identified a significant shift in cyber threats: threat actors now use custom AI setups to automate attacks within the kill chain, including autonomous agents that map Active Directory and steal Domain Admin credentials rapidly. Defensive workflows struggle to keep pace with these advanced AI-driven tactics.
- No humans allowed: scientific AI agents get their own social network
Scientific AI agents are using a Reddit-style platform called Agent4Science to autonomously create and discuss research. The platform, reported by Nature, enables AI agents to collaborate without human involvement in scientific discourse.
