Tech giants Google and Meta have a lot riding on the growth and success of AI, and to support those efforts, they're also committing significant sums of money to build the data centers they're going to need to run that power-hungry technology. On Tuesday, Google announced that it plans to invest $25 billion in data centers and other AI infrastructure tied to the PJM Interconnection, the biggest electric grid in the US. The PJM Interconnection reaches across 13 states in the eastern half of the
The drives are based on Seagate's Mosaic 3+ platform, which "incorporates Seagate’s unique implementation of HAMR to deliver mass-capacity storage at unprecedented areal densities of 3TB per disk and beyond."

The best AI architectures in use today treat all inputs equally. They process each input with the same amount of compute, without explicitly grouping related inputs into higher level concepts. While these architectures have achieved impressive results across domains, this lack of hierarchy has some fundamental limitations. Models have difficulty learning from high resolution, raw data, requiring inputs to be pre-processed into meaningful tokens for strong performance. The use of hand-crafted p
Newly uncovered metadata reveals that nearly three minutes of footage were cut from what the US Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation described as “full raw” surveillance video from the only functioning camera near Jeffrey Epstein’s prison cell the night before he was found dead. The video was released last week as part of the Trump administration’s commitment to fully investigate Epstein’s 2019 death but instead has raised new questions about how the footage was edited and a

Meta to spend hundreds of billions to build AI data centres The company, which has made most of its money from online advertising, generated more than $160bn in revenue in 2024. Meta has invested heavily in efforts to develop what it called "superintelligence" - technology that it said could out-think the smartest humans. He said one of the sites would cover an area nearly the size of Manhattan (59.1 sq km/22.8 sq miles). The first multi-gigawatt data centre, called Prometheus, is expected t

In Brief Meta and CEO Mark Zuckerberg are in a hurry to build their superintelligence tech. The company has been poaching AI researchers, while Zuckerberg announced on Monday that Meta is building a 5-gigawatt data center called Hyperion. The urgency is palpable. As SemiAnalysis reported last week and Business Insider noted, Meta is so eager to boost its computing power that it’s literally erecting tents for temporary data center capacity while its facilities are still under construction. The
Apple’s forthcoming iPhone 17 Air will come with a key component many years in the making: the C1 modem, which debuted in the iPhone 16e. The idea of a new modem may not sound very exciting, but already with this first version it’s become clear why Apple spent so long developing it. There are cost benefits to ditching Qualcomm, but also user-facing improvements. Here are two killer features Apple’s new C1 enables. #1: Battery life gains Who among us wouldn’t appreciate a little more battery li

Episource, owned by health insurance giant UnitedHealth Group’s subsidiary Optum, provides billing adjustment to the doctor
For many years, data brokers have existed in the shadows, exploiting gaps in privacy laws to harvest our information—all for their own profit. They sell our precise movements without our knowledge or meaningful consent to a variety of private and state actors, including law enforcement agencies. And they show no sign of stopping. This incentivizes other bad actors. If companies collect any kind of personal data and want to make a quick buck, there’s a data broker willing to buy it and sell it t

ZDNET's key takeaways The magnetic USB-C connector now supports a 180-degree swivel, and it's only $12 at Amazon. It can pump out as much as 240W of power. I just wish it was suitable for data transferring or powering monitors. $12.99 at Amazon A hill I'm always willing to fight on -- and maybe even die on -- is that the magnetic breakaway USB-C connector is one of the best USB accessories out there. Sure, it's not as flashy as a hardware-encrypted storage device or as geeky as a USB power me

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR T-Mobile has added two new privacy toggles: one for sharing certain financial information and another for fraud/identity theft protection. The first toggle allows T-Mobile to share your financial data with affiliates and marketers, while the second is meant to help detect fraud. You can disable both toggles in the T-Life app, and for most people, turning off the first is strongly recommended. T-Mobile and the other big carriers have a certain reputat
Back in 2021 I looked at OpenEXR lossless compression options (and I think my findings led a change of the default zip compression level, as well as change of the compression library from zlib to libdeflate. Yay blogging about things!). Then in 2023 I looked at losslessly compressing a bunch of floating point data, some of which might be image-shaped. Well, now a discussion somewhere else has nerd-sniped me to look into lossless compression of floating point images, and especially the ones that
