Google’s Project Suncatcher will send four TPU AI chips into orbit on October 1 to test whether AI computing hardware can reliably operate in space.

A new smart-glasses demonstration shows how smaller AI models can run locally on wearable hardware instead of relying entirely on cloud data centers.

Lokotech says its first Scrypt ASIC and Edge AI silicon wafers have completed fabrication and are moving into packaging and testing. The milestone moves Lokotech’s mining-chip project from wafer fabrication toward packaging, bring-up and verification. The Scrypt ASIC targets proof-of-work networks including Litecoin and Dogecoin. The next phase matters because fabricated silicon still has to…

Navitas Semiconductor and Wise Integration are teaming up to develop more efficient power systems for AI data centers and high-performance computers. The companies announced the collaboration September 25. Their work will combine Navitas’ gallium nitride (GaN) and silicon carbide (SiC) power semiconductors with Wise Integration’s digital-control technology. A major focus will be AI data-center power…

NVIDIA, Google and Emerald AI have launched the AI Energy Management Alliance, a coalition focused on making AI data centers more flexible participants in the electric grid. The alliance is developing standards for data centers that can temporarily reduce grid demand by shifting computing workloads, discharging batteries, using paired generation or responding to grid emergencies.…

Crusoe has ended its planned launch partnership with Boom Supersonic for 29 Superpower natural-gas turbines, changing a major piece of the power strategy behind future AI data centers. The original agreement covered 29 of Boom’s 42-megawatt turbines, representing about 1.21 gigawatts of generation capacity and roughly $1.25 billion in equipment. Boom CEO Blake Scholl said…

Riot Platforms has fully repaid and terminated its secured credit facility with Coinbase Credit, removing a financing arrangement that had made as much as $200 million available to the Bitcoin miner and data-center operator. According to Riot’s September 25 regulatory disclosure, the company completed the voluntary prepayment on September 21, paying the outstanding principal and…

Are aliens real? Polymarket and a viral response revive the question, while NASA’s evidence shows why possibility, UAP reports and confirmed extraterrestrial life are different claims.
