If you work in connectivity, cloud and AI infrastructure, data centers, and investment, you know that Capacity Europe is a must-attend event. This annual opportunity to connect with regional partners and prospects across the industry is a highlight for our team. We’ve compiled a selection of our telecom experts’ insights on major topics to know before you go. Get ready to make the most of this conference with the resources in this post.

With the exploding popularity of generative artificial intelligence, many open-source models are now available online for anyone to adapt for their task, such as generating product renderings in a certain artistic style. But these models also find their way into the hands of nefarious actors who may optimize them to produce illegal content, like hate speech or child sexual abuse material (CSAM). This is a growing problem — the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children received more than 1.5 million reports of AI-generated CSAM in 2025, an increase from 67,000 in 2024.Engineers usually test AI for harmful capabilities by prompting the…

Meta is spending at hyperscaler scale on artificial intelligence infrastructure—$125 billion to $145 billion in 2026 capital expenditures alone. Investors have asked the question every investor asks at this scale: What if it doesn’t work? Mark Zuckerberg’s answer, delivered at Meta’s annual shareholder meeting on May 27, reframed the risk. If Meta ends up with excess compute capacity from its AI buildout, external compute sales are “definitely on the table.” In July, reporting revealed that Meta has moved beyond floating the option. According to Bloomberg and Reuters, the company is reportedly developing a commercial cloud infrastructure business designed to sell…

Just over two years ago, I launched the Now Go Build CTO Fellowship with nine technology leaders working in disaster management and climate resilience. Since then, the program has grown to 24 Fellows from 18 countries across four continents, tackling problems in healthcare, education, and food security.Today, we’re releasing the second season of our documentary series. Across five episodes, you’ll hear from Brendan Michaelsen, Ezekiel Brooks, Maryam Bello, Abheejit Khandagale, Adnan Ahmed Qureshi, Miriam Chickering, Alexandra Kroenert, Gokul Kumar, Jassen Stanchev, Rosius Ndimofor, Oluwafunmilayo Ajakaiye, Djime Sacko, Rajasekhar Kaliki, and Jay Patel. They’re building safe digital spaces for survivors of…

Patagonia draws people in for obvious reasons. The mountains are dramatic, the glaciers seem to stretch forever, and some of the world’s best multi-day hikes happen here. What often catches first-time visitors off guard is how carefully everything is managed. At the main park entrances, rangers spend as much time explaining conservation rules as they do handing over maps. Information boards describe local wildlife, recent restoration work, and why certain trails or campsites occasionally close. After a few days here, it becomes clear that protecting the landscape isn’t treated as a separate project. It’s simply embedded into the fabric of…

Welcome back! In Part 1 we set the scene: a secure handshake rests on two pillars (key exchange and authentication), and quantum computers threaten both. Now we zoom in on the first and most urgent one: key exchange. Why urgent? Two words that should genuinely keep you up at night: harvest now, decrypt later. Let’s unpack that, then introduce the two algorithms that will spend the next few posts going head-to-head. No commands yet; for now, let’s build the intuition. Diffie-Hellman: the quiet hero Diffie-Hellman (DH) is the unsung hero behind nearly every secure channel on the internet. The idea is genuinely elegant: two parties each…

Back in March, we introduced Android Bench—our LLM leaderboard for real-world Android development tasks. Our goal was to provide transparency around model capabilities in Android development and to encourage model improvements, to give you more helpful AI options for your everyday workflow. Since then, we have enhanced the benchmark based on your feedback, including evaluating open-weight models and adding cost and efficiency dimensions to the leaderboard. But AI capabilities are ever-evolving, and measurement needs to follow suit. As part of our July release, we have adopted the Harbor framework, which includes an updated version of the benchmarking agent used to…

When programming in Javascript there are times when you might want to know if there were any parameters passed through the URL. In case you aren’t familiar with URL parameters, they are the arguments set after the base URL and the ‘?’. For example let’s look at the below example:https://www.josephamaurer.com/Projects/DevAPI/RecentDevPosts.html?PerPage=100?PerPage=100 is the first parameter that is passed with this URL. It’s up to your javascript logic to grab this parameter’s value and use it appropriately. So can there be multiple parameters? You betcha! Additional parameters are added with the following syntax:https://www.josephamaurer.com/Projects/DevAPI/RecentDevPosts.html?PerPage=100&Page=2‘&Page=2’ is the second parameter that is with this URL. At…

Guest post by Michael Kilarney Co-Founder Genghis AI The 2023 idea of “tax AI” is already archaic. A faster search box is not the future of tax advisory. Finding legislation faster is useful. Finding guidance faster is useful. Finding case law faster is useful. But it is not the prize. The prize is completing complex tax technical work from end to end – with sources, structure, reasoning and professional review built into the process. That is what Genghis AI is building. Genghis AI is an Irish-built artificial intelligence platform for tax professionals, accountants and advisory firms. It is not trying…
