The AI carousel is spinning faster again and this time the impetus is not coming from Google or OpenAI, but from one of their previously underestimated opponents: Anthropic. On November 24, 2025, the San Francisco-based company officially unveiled its latest language model “Claude Opus 4.5”. And what at first glance might appear to be [...]
New information about the upcoming AMD CPU series Ryzen AI 400, codenamed Gorgon Point, is leaking out just in time for the new year. With today’s unveiling of two further models, Ryzen AI 9 465 and Ryzen AI 7 450, the specifications of the planned Zen 5-based APUs are becoming even clearer. The chips have appeared in CrossMark benchmarks, a [...]
It may come as a surprise at first glance, but NVIDIA’s toughest competitor in the AI market is currently not AMD or Intel, but Google. While the latter is often perceived by the public as a cloud service provider or software company, it has been consistently developing its own chip strategy for years and with growing success. With the [...]
NVIDIA seems to have no time to lose: The next GPU generation, codenamed “Ruby”, has already been threaded into TSMC’s production lines, according to recent reports. At the same time, the company has secured early deliveries of HBM4 memory chips – from all relevant DRAM manufacturers. This parallel dual strategy not only [...]
While power grids on Earth are groaning, land prices are exploding and cooling data centers is becoming an environmental issue, Elon Musk is once again looking to take flight – this time vertically. The visionary entrepreneur recently announced that SpaceX is working on moving data processing capacity into space. The third generation of [...]
Nvidia has placed the next stone on the semiconductor industry’s go-board – and it’s a damn heavy one: the “Vera Rubin Superchip” was shown to the public for the first time at the GTC in Washington D.C.. It is less of a classic product and more of a technological manifesto. The prototype on show – a so-called [...]
It is a drastic cut that is rarely admitted so openly in this form: NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang speaks in no uncertain terms about the fact that his company has not only lost relevance in the Chinese market, but has been completely eliminated. What was once considered a golden growth pit for the Californian chip manufacturer is now just a diplomatic [...]
It is more than just a symbolic act, it is a powerful industrial policy statement: NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang unveiled the first Blackwell chip wafer this week, produced not in Taiwan but in the heart of Arizona. Made possible by TSMC, financed and orchestrated by Washington’s reindustrialization campaign, which once gained momentum under [...]
Intel seems to have hit a strategic nerve with its 18A process. Although, according to official statements, the node is primarily intended for in-house use, for platforms such as Panther Lake and Clearwater Forest, there are increasing indications of growing interest from major external customers. According to SemiAccurate, Microsoft is said to be [...]
It’s a lesson in technological progress meets cultural ownership: OpenAI’s latest AI “Sora 2” is not only technically impressive, but is also currently causing a political stir in Japan, and not just too little. The Japanese government has officially issued a warning to OpenAI. The reason: the tool can create such realistic [...]
It’s a deal that was quietly announced but has a lot going for it. OpenAI, the inventor of ChatGPT and the current king of generative AI, has teamed up with the two South Korean memory giants Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix. At the center is a project called “Stargate”, a name that sounds like science fiction but is actually a [...]
With the PowerEdge XE7740, Dell has introduced a server that can be equipped with up to eight Intel Gaudi 3 PCIe accelerators, thus sending a signal: They no longer want to stand by and watch NVIDIA occupy the AI infrastructure market virtually single-handedly. With the XE7740, Dell is the first provider to venture into the market with a fully [...]
At the Huawei Full Connect Conference 2025 in Shanghai, Yang Chaobin, member of the Huawei Executive Board and CEO of the ICT Business Group, announced a far-reaching architectural realignment of the Group’s data center strategy: With the introduction of a so-called “supernode architecture” (超节点架构), Huawei aims to redefine [...]
For a long time, it was just a marketing buzzword that was slapped onto every half-warm notebook campaign: “AI PC”. But now we seem to be at the point where marketing is becoming reality – at least if you believe the latest figures from Gartner. And unlike many other analysts, Gartner has so far mostly followed the development of [...]
While the West continues to juggle price explosions in the GPU segment and hot AI air, China is drawing a card in the background that is potentially more far-reaching than any new GPU line-up: Zhaoxin, the joint venture between VIA Technologies and the Shanghai government, has unveiled two new processors, the KH-50000 and the KX-7000N, which are [...]
The headline sounds almost like science fiction, but it is bitter reality: with the upcoming SP7 platform, AMD is planning server processors that will consume up to 1,400 watts of power – per socket, mind you. This doubles the TDP compared to the current SP5 platform, which is already at 700 watts with Zen 4-based EPYC processors. This leap [...]
With Blackwell Ultra, NVIDIA is setting a new benchmark in AI acceleration. While the original Blackwell chip was already considered a radical departure from previous GPU designs, Blackwell Ultra goes even further, with twice the transistor density of Hopper, an aggressive dual-die architecture and impressive performance scaling up to 15 PetaFLOPS [...]
NVIDIA is igniting the next stage of its AI offensive program, report our colleagues at Wccftech, and Jensen Huang himself provides confirmation: The new “Ruby” architecture is not only under development, but has already reached the tape-out stage with six different chips at TSMC. According to Huang, this is the company’s most [...]
When Lisa Su speaks, people in Santa Clara, but also in Redmond and at Amazon Web Services, listen very carefully. In a recent interview with WIRED, the AMD boss draws a parallel, report our colleagues from Wccftech, which is making many market observers sit up and take notice – and is probably hitting Intel like a sledgehammer: AMD is now [...]
Intel has launched a new PR push that at first glance sounds like a glossy campaign, but is actually a desperate bid for liberation in a geopolitical power play, report our colleagues at Wccftech: USAI – a patriotically packaged narrative that Intel is America’s only true option for high-end chip manufacturing. Behind the facade of [...]
