How the world can tackle the power demands of artificial intelligence

The world must reshape its technology infrastructure to ensure artificial intelligence makes good on its potential as a transformative moment in digital innovation. New technologies, such as generative AI, need huge amounts of processing power that will put electricity grids under tremendous stress and raise sustainability questions. But pioneering technologists are working on a potential…

The power of unified data storage with generative AI

The promise of generative AI (genAI) is undeniable, but the volume and complexity of the data involved pose significant challenges. Unlike traditional AI models that rely on predefined rules and datasets, genAI algorithms, such as generative adversarial networks (GANs) and transformers, can learn and generate new data from scratch. Training these models requires high-quality, diverse…

The role of governance in AI: Building trust

Generative artificial intelligence (AI) is hot property when it comes to investment, but there’s a pronounced hesitancy around adoption. AI faces a fundamental trust challenge due to uncertainty over safety, reliability, transparency, bias, and ethics. In a recent global survey, 86% of participants said their organizations had dedicated budget to generative AI, but three-quarters admitted…

South Korea’s political unrest threatens the stability of global tech supply chains

South Korea’s sudden political upheaval has raised fresh concerns for its economy and global supply chains, with analysts warning of potential disruptions to its critical technology exports. As a major producer of memory chips, displays, and other critical tech components, South Korea plays an essential role in global supply chains for products ranging from smartphones…
