Quote of the day  “The inference inflection has arrived.”  —Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang claims we’ve reached a tipping point where AI usage is accelerating faster than its development, AP reports.  One More Thing  Meet the radio-obsessed civilian shaping Ukraine’s drone defense  EMRE ÇAYLAK Serhii “Flash” Beskrestnov is, at least unofficially, a spy. Once a month, he drives to the frontline in a VW van equipped with radio hardware, roof antennas, and devices that monitor drones. Over several days, he searches the skies for transmissions that can help Ukrainian troops.  Drones define this brutal conflict, and most rely on the radio communications Flash has obsessed over since childhood. Though…

Skateboarding games have long balanced technical precision with a sense of flow and expression, but Skate Story takes the genre in a radically different direction. It has a distinct vaporwave vibe and blends fluid skate mechanics with exploration, puzzles, and an existential narrative about freedom, pain, and obsession. The game was created by indie developer Sam Eng, who previously released Zarvot for the Nintendo Switch. Skate Story launched to critical acclaim and was widely regarded as one of the best games of 2025. In this episode, Sam joins the show with Joe Nash to talk about developing Skate Story. Joe…

Cork-headquartered Granite, Ireland’s largest independent digital agency, has announced an agreement to acquire Creative Media, a Northern Ireland-founded performance marketing specialist with a significant client base across the US and Canada. This is alongside a series of senior appointments to drive its North American expansion. The agreed acquisition will enable Granite to target revenues of $40 million by 2027. North America will account for $20 million of company revenues – half of the overall total. The deal anchors an ambitious US growth strategy, following a 400% year-on-year increase in organic North American revenue over the last 12 months. Granite’s strategy…

The accountability challenge: It’s not them, it’s you Until now, governance has been focused on model output risks with humans in the loop before consequential decisions were made—such as with loan approvals or job applications. Model behavior, including drift, alignment, data exfiltration, and poisoning, was the focus. The pace was set by a human prompting a model in a chatbot format with plenty of back and forth interactions between machine and human. Today, with autonomous agents operating in complex workflows, the vision and the benefits of applied AI require significantly fewer humans in the loop. The point is to operate…

Some of the best agentic AI companies in 2026 include Intellectyx AI, IBM, Accenture, Cognizant, and TCS. These companies help organizations build and deploy AI agents that can reason, plan tasks, and execute workflows autonomously, enabling businesses to automate operations and make faster decisions. Agentic AI is gaining attention because it moves beyond traditional automation. Instead of following static rules, AI agents can analyze context, interact with systems, and complete complex tasks with minimal human input.   What Is Agentic AI? Agentic AI refers to AI systems designed to act as autonomous agents. These agents can understand goals, plan actions,…

Why we built the Secure AI Factory One year ago at NVIDIA GTC, Cisco and NVIDIA introduced the Cisco Secure AI Factory with NVIDIA. At the time, the challenge for enterprises was clear: AI was moving from science project to strategic priority, but the infrastructure and software were fragmented. Customers were struggling with the complexity of standing up massive compute clusters for training, optimization, and inferencing, while ensuring their data remained secure and private. To solve this, the Secure AI Factory was built upon the foundation of Cisco AI PODs, our modular reference architecture based on Cisco Validated Designs and…

A hacktivist group with links to Iran’s intelligence agencies is claiming responsibility for a data-wiping attack against Stryker, a global medical technology company based in Michigan. News reports out of Ireland, Stryker’s largest hub outside of the United States, said the company sent home more than 5,000 workers there today. Meanwhile, a voicemail message at Stryker’s main U.S. headquarters says the company is currently experiencing a building emergency. Based in Kalamazoo, Michigan, Stryker [NYSE:SYK] is a medical and surgical equipment maker that reported $25 billion in global sales last year. In a lengthy statement posted to Telegram, a hacktivist group…

Britain could reduce the impact of rising global gas prices and supply concerns caused by the conflict in the Gulf by rapidly increasing domestic green gas production, according to the UK’s anaerobic digestion industry. Trade association the Anaerobic Digestion and Bioresources Association (ADBA) says existing biomethane plants could increase production by almost a third within months if government removes several regulatory barriers, boosting UK gas supply before next winter. Biomethane – a purified form of biogas produced from domestic food waste, farm residues and other organic materials – is chemically identical to natural gas and can be injected directly into…

A new whitepaper released by one of Europe’s tech, startup and digital investment event, GITEX AI EUROPE, in partnership with research firm – LUE, maps out the foundations for Europe’s digital sovereignty; identifying the imperatives that could define the continent’s next decade of technological leadership. With Europe’s ICT market now valued at €1.02 trillion, the study emphasises that Europe’s long-term tech competitiveness hinges on its ability to scale AI computing power, establish cloud infrastructure, embed open-source standards, and mobilise deeper pools of startup capital. Together, these priorities form the pillars of a ‘new industrial compact’ aligning Europe’s innovation capacity with…
