AI Demand for Data Centers Vastly Underestimated
The world is “grossly” underestimating how much the demand for artificial intelligence is going to expand the global market for data centers over the next five years, according to Brian Venturo, the co-founder of the cloud-computing unicorn CoreWeave. Further propelling the demand for new data centers is the fact that older ones are tough to revamp, Venturo said. The existing infrastructure supplying electricity to current data centers can’t support their expansions.

5G-täckning för nio av tio svenska hushåll
Befolkningstäckningen för 5G-nät ökar snabbt, och under 2023 uppnåddes ett viktigt delmål för bredbandsutbyggnaden. Det visar Post- och telestyrelsens (PTS) mobiltäcknings- och bredbandskartläggning för 2023. Täckningen av 5G-nät har ökat betydligt runt om i landet. 90 procent av hushållen har nu täckning av 5G-nät, jämfört med 57 procent ett år tidigare. I glest bebyggda områden har 67 procent av hushållen nu 5G-täckning (29 procent 2022).

The state of cloud computing in Europe: Increasing adoption, low returns, huge potential
On the surface, the cloud journey for many European companies is an impressive story. It is critical for European companies to accelerate their cloud ambitions and activities. Up to $3 trillion is up for grabsfor Forbes Global 2000 companies that go beyond cloud adoption and venture into innovation and pioneering. The ability to take advantage of new technologies, particularly generative AI (gen AI), will depend on how well companies can establish and scale their cloud programs.

What’s the future of data storage?
As the amount of data we use and create grows, firms need to shore up their storage strategies or risk of far more expensive migrations – or even data loss – down the line. As technological innovations happen, it can be easy to forget that even the most complex systems rely on large networks of basic infrastructure to operate. At the most fundamental level, all tech products rely on effective data storage But this is easier said than done. Each byte of data has to be stored somewhere, on a rack, disk, tape, or flash device. As the world embraces hardware and software that creates data at an even faster rate, businesses will be forced to push the frontiers of data storage and evaluate their data management strategies.

U.S., U.K. Announce Partnership to Safety Test AI Models
The U.K. and U.S. governments announced Monday they will work together in safety testing the most powerful artificial intelligence models. An agreement, signed by Michelle Donelan, the U.K. Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, and U.S. Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo, sets out a plan for collaboration between the two governments. The two AI safety testing bodies will develop a common approach to AI safety testing that involves using the same methods and underlying infrastructure, according to a news release.

Microsoft, OpenAI may be dreaming of $100B 5GW AI 'Stargate' supercomputer
OpenAI is believed to be in talks with Microsoft to construct a massive supercomputer code-named Stargate containing millions of AI accelerators at a cost of up to $100 billion. Stargate would reportedly be the largest in a series of AI supercomputers built by Microsoft for OpenAI over the next six years and could consume as much as five gigawatts when complete. Finding enough carbon-free energy to power such a system without completely derailing Microsoft's aggressive eco-promises could, however, prove troublesome. Even the largest nuclear power plant in the US, the Palo Verde Generating Station west of Phoenix, Arizona, can only muster 3.3 gigawatts of electric power from its three reactors.
