Cloud computing has fundamentally transformed the way enterprises operate. Initially built for more basic, everyday computing tasks, its capabilities have expanded exponentially with the advent of new technologies (such as machine learning and analytics). But AI — particularly generative AI and the emerging class of AI agents — presents all-new challenges for cloud architectures. It

For more than a decade, many considered cloud outages a theoretical risk, something to address on a whiteboard and then quietly deprioritize during cost cuts. In 2025, this risk became real. A major Google Cloud outage in June caused hours-long disruptions to popular consumer and enterprise services, with ripple effects into providers that depend on

Retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) has quickly become the enterprise default for grounding generative AI in internal knowledge. It promises less hallucination, more accuracy, and a way to unlock value from decades of documents, policies, tickets, and institutional memory. Yet while nearly every enterprise can build a proof of concept, very few can run RAG reliably in

OpenAI has announced that it is looking for a new Head of Preparedness, who will be responsible for anticipating and mitigating the risks and damages that its AI models can cause. As compensation, OpenAI is offering around $550,000 in annual salary, plus stock. “This is going to be a stressful job and you’re going to

As modern technologies such as artificial intelligence grab today’s headlines, it’s worth remembering that their foundations were being laid more than half a century ago by computer scientists, philosophers, psychologists, developers, entrepreneurs, and more. These pioneers and those who followed tackled issues and solved problems that future generations may never know existed — but without their

SoftBank Group has announced plans to acquire DigitalBridge Group, an asset manager specializing in digital infrastructure investments such as data centers, cell towers, and fiber networks, in a deal valued at $4 billion. The acquisition underscores SoftBank’s aggressive strategy to dominate the next wave of AI infrastructure globally. SoftBank said the acquisition is part of

I go to a lot of tech conferences — 13 in 2025 — and many of those I attend are outside the US; several are in London, one is in Amsterdam, another in Paris, and two in Tokyo. Wherever I went this past year, when we weren’t talking about AI, Linux, the cloud, or open-source

As AI accelerates beyond human employment capacity and public trust erodes under massive data center expansion, DebitMyData, Inc. is building the missing bridge — the human and digital foundation for the next economy. Before governments acted, before the Genesis Executive Order ignited a national push for ethical AI infrastructure, DebitMyData was already designing the architecture

Andrej Karpathy is one of the few people in this industry who has earned the right to be listened to without a filter. As a founding member of OpenAI and the former director of AI at Tesla, he sits at the summit of AI and its possibilities. In a recent post, he shared a view

It has been a dramatic and challenging year for developers and engineers working in devops organizations. More companies are using AI and automation for both development and IT operations, including for writing requirements, maintaining documentation, and vibe coding. Responsibilities have also increased, as organizations expect devops teams to improve data quality, automate AI agent testing,
