Applied AIPartnering with Edelbyte: Data Infrastructure That Keeps Up With AI's Curiosity
If agents are going to hammer your internal systems with orders of magnitude more queries than humans ever did, the real constraint becomes data infra cost and latency, not model quality. Teams building agents should be budgeting for a new class of OLAP-style infra like Edelbyte’s, not assuming the existing warehouse can take the load.
Applied AI'Getting the job done should also be a natural thing': Zoom lays out its plans to use AI and context to be even more of a useful workplace assistant
Zoom is turning the meeting client into a context-rich assistant surface—notes, actions, and insights anchored in where people already work. If your product touches live collaboration, assume users will expect AI-native workflows inside the tool, not bolted on from the outside.
Applied AIAnthropic Buys Power for AI Data Centres in $3.4B Deal, FT Says
$3.4B for gas-fired generators is AI labs vertically integrating into power, not just compute. If you’re planning large-scale AI workloads, power procurement, fuel mix, and permitting now sit alongside GPU supply as first-order constraints.
Applied AIInside Inner Mongolia, China's fastest-growing AI data center region, where construction is accelerating with low building cost and no public backlash
An 800MW wind-powered campus with 120MW built in a year and SST-native 800V DC pilots shows China is treating AI data centers as heavy industry. Western operators need to assume a world where Chinese AI capacity scales faster and cheaper — and plan differentiation on data, product, and governance, not raw compute.
