Applied AITikTok is on the hunt for a huge compute capacity upgrade — so is it replacing Oracle, or just exploring its options?
Planning for up to 4 GW of compute by the early 2030s puts TikTok in the same industrial power class as hyperscalers and chip fabs — this is AI-era media as critical infrastructure.

Applied AIServiceNow’s stock slides as earnings miss clouds a raised AI outlook
Multi‑million‑dollar AI deals aren’t offsetting broader SaaS skepticism — investors are no longer rewarding AI narrative without clean earnings.

Security and platform teams should treat Carbon as a candidate co-pilot for both red and blue teaming, and start structured evals against their current AI stack.
