SpaceX wants to build AI data centers in space. Will it work?

The race to build data centers in space is gaining momentum as AI drives unprecedented demand for computing power. Orbital facilities could tap into abundant solar energy and avoid many of the environmental challenges faced on Earth. Yet space remains a harsh and expensive place to operate, with major hurdles including cooling, maintenance, radiation exposure, …

Monitor and debug generative AI inference with SageMaker detailed metrics and Insights dashboard on CloudWatch

Monitoring and troubleshooting generative AI inference endpoints operating at scale is challenging. When your large language model (LLM) endpoint’s P99 latency spikes, you must determine in minutes whether the root cause is GPU memory pressure, a saturated KV cache, unbalanced traffic across Availability Zones, or an auto scaling policy that hasn’t triggered. The shift from …

Amazon Bedrock AgentCore harness is now generally available: Go from idea to production-grade agent in minutes

A year ago, Simon Willison wrote one of the cleanest definitions of an agent that has stuck around: An LLM agent runs tools in a loop to achieve a goal. That definition stuck because it describes what every production agent actually does. Kiro, Amazon Q Developer, Quick Agents, Codex, Claude Code: under the hood, they …

How growing UK midsize businesses are building in the AI era

The UK’s 5-million-plus small and midsize businesses and enterprises (SMBs) are the backbone of our economy. Today, we’re seeing these critical businesses begin to put AI to work, to operate more efficiently, move faster, and ultimately deliver better outcomes for their customers.  This shift is driven by tangible day-to-day results. According to recent research from …

Amazon SageMaker AI Async Inference now supports inline request payloads

Today, we’re announcing inline payload support for Amazon SageMaker AI Async Inference. Customers can now send inference payloads directly in the request body of the InvokeEndpointAsync API, removing the need to upload input data to Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) before each invocation. For payloads up to 128,000 bytes, this removes an entire network …

From AI potential to agentic reality: Driving the UK’s next chapter

The United Kingdom, and London in particular, continues to be one of the great hubs for AI development in Europe and the world. We’re home to Google DeepMind, of course, as well as significant AI unicorns — and Google Cloud customers — like Ineffable Intelligence, which is today announcing an important partnership with us.  A …

Upsampling method sharpens AI vision with up to 16 times less GPU memory

From facial recognition on smartphones to humanoid robots, computer vision technology, which serves as the eyes of artificial intelligence (AI), is widely used in daily life. A joint research team from KAIST and international institutions has developed a technology that allows AI to see the world more clearly with minimal memory, increasing GPU (Graphics Processing …

Potentially the most insane LORA you’ll see today – Archer (8 characters + style) Ideogram LORA

Hi, I’m Dever and I like training LORAs, you can download this one from Huggingface (you can find other style LORAs for Klein and ZIT in my HF profile). I believe this might be the first Ideogram 8 characters in one + style lora on HuggingFace and a good proof of concept that this is …
