This Mega Snowstorm Will Be a Test for the US Supply Chain
Shipping experts say the big winter storm across a wide swath of the country should be business as usual—if their safeguards hold.
The next generation of disinformation: AI swarms can threaten democracy by manufacturing fake public consensus
An international research team involving Konstanz scientist David Garcia warns that the next generation of influence operations may not look like obvious “copy-paste bots,” but like coordinated communities: fleets of AI-driven personas that can adapt in real time, infiltrate groups, and manufacture the appearance of public agreement at scale.

Scaling WideEP Mixture-of-Experts inference with Google Cloud A4X (GB200) and NVIDIA Dynamo
As organizations transition from standard LLMs to massive Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architectures like DeepSeek-R1, the primary constraint has shifted from raw compute density to communication latency and memory bandwidth. Today, we’re releasing two new validated recipes designed to help customers overcome the infrastructure bottlenecks of the agentic AI era. These new recipes provide clear steps to …
Railway secures $100 million to challenge AWS with AI-native cloud infrastructure
Railway, a San Francisco-based cloud platform that has quietly amassed two million developers without spending a dollar on marketing, announced Thursday that it raised $100 million in a Series B funding round, as surging demand for artificial intelligence applications exposes the limitations of legacy cloud infrastructure. TQ Ventures led the round, with participation from FPV …

Sorry MAGA, Turns Out People Still Like ‘Woke’ Art
From Black vampires gobbling up Oscar nominations to gay pro hockey players dominating the culture, diverse stories broke through in an environment that’s increasingly hostile to them.
AI models mirror human ‘us vs. them’ social biases, study shows
Large language models (LLMs), the computational models underpinning the functioning of ChatGPT, Gemini and other widely used artificial intelligence (AI) platforms, can rapidly source information and generate texts tailored for specific purposes. As these models are trained on large amounts of texts written by humans, they could exhibit some human-like biases, which are inclinations to …
