In today’s episode, we dive into four major stories reshaping the landscape of AI, cybersecurity, and digital infrastructure. We begin with OpenAI’s massive 5-gigawatt data center in Abu Dhabi, a bold geopolitical move in partnership with G42. Next, we unpack CrowdStrike’s integration with NVIDIA’s AI Factory design — a key step in securing AI systems across industries. Then, we explore Microsoft’s vision for a more collaborative, memory-aware AI ecosystem, as revealed at its Build conference. Finally, we spotlight the UK’s new Centre for Cyber Resilience and Artificial Intelligence (CYBRAI) in Wolverhampton — a unique initiative at the intersection of AI and cybersecurity.
