For over fifteen years, x86 CPUs have shipped with a dedicated hardware instruction for carryless multiplication. It’s a small but stubborn primitive that sits underneath authenticated encryption, error-correcting codes, and modern zero-knowledge proofs. Until now, NVIDIA GPUs lacked native support for this operation. NVIDIA CUDA 13.3 closes that gap with clmad, a new PTX instruction…
SAN FRANCISCO, July 16, 2026 — The Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF), which builds sustainable ecosystems for cloud native software, today announced that Broadcom has upgraded its membership to Platinum, reinforcing the company’s mission to advance cloud native technologies that help organizations build resilient infrastructure for the AI era. As enterprises increasingly move AI and…
right now, a GPU is spending most of its energy not on math, but on moving numbers around. Fetching weights from memory, shuttling them to a compute unit, doing a multiplication, and shuttling the result back. Do that billions of times a second, for months, across a training run, and you start to understand why…
Mathematics is the foundational language of the universe, providing the tools to describe everything from the laws of physics to the intricacies of biology and the logic of computer science. For centuries, its frontiers have been expanded by human ingenuity alone. At Google DeepMind, we believe AI can serve as a powerful tool to collaborate…
Teams that rely on dashboards for daily decisions often must pinch and zoom to interact with controls originally designed for larger displays. Checking revenue during a morning standup, reviewing pipeline metrics between meetings, or monitoring operations while traveling all require extra effort when the dashboard was built for a desktop screen. Mobile Layout for Amazon…
Dive Brief: Medtronic said Thursday it has completed its $650 million takeover of SPR Therapeutics, adding a pain treatment to its neuromodulation portfolio. SPR sells a temporary, minimally invasive device, Sprint, that the Food and Drug Administration has cleared for providing 60 days of peripheral nerve stimulation to treat pain. Medtronic, which struck two of the…
The most powerful AI model is not always the most useful one. Businesses are increasingly testing lower-cost Chinese models for coding, customer support, and internal automation, according to reporting from NPR and usage data from OpenRouter. Although leading US systems may still outperform them on advanced tasks, the price difference is prompting companies to reconsider…
Earlier this week, we detected and responded to an intrusion into part of our production infrastructure. This one was different from anything we had handled before in one important way: it was driven, end to end, by an autonomous AI agent system – and we detected and dissected it largely with AI of our own….

It’s popular for use cases ranging from…
Pretty much everyone who cares about public health agrees that it’s a good idea to help people quit smoking, the No. 1 cause of preventable death in the U.S. Doctors may soon get some extra encouragement to lend a hand, thanks to proposed changes in Medicare’s physician fee schedules. Physicians who offer counseling on quitting…
