AI as we know it has been used for everything from making full-length feature films to solving nearly impossible math problems. But today AI is also, relatively speaking, just a child. That said, AI is a child that has learned languages, how to play games, how to blackmail people, how to power robots and, in […]
Blackstone-backed AirTrunk plans a massive Rs 3 lakh crore investment in India by 2030 to boost digital infrastructure, including data centres and AI capacity. Prime Minister Modi welcomed the move, highlighting its potential to strengthen India's global position in cloud computing and AI, create jobs, and drive innovation-led growth.
The US Commerce Department's Bureau of Industry and Security has quietly closed a year-old loophole that let Nvidia's most advanced Blackwell AI chips reach overseas subsidiaries of Chinese companies without an export licence. Industry sources estimate hundreds of thousands of chips may have already shipped through the gap. The new guidance still leaves data centre servicing and TSMC foundry due diligence untouched, raising fresh enforcement questions.

When Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang makes his second visit to South Korea in just seven months this week, it won’t be only to meet top memory chip and robotics executives, but to throw the first pitch at a baseball game and appear on a TV talk show. While a celebrity in his own right, the charm push by the Taiwan-born 63-year-old highlights South Korea’s critical position in the AI landscape. Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix between them make about 70 per cent of the memory needed for AI chips like Nvidia’s. And the country’s strength in manufacturing and robotics sets it up to be a key player in physical AI, where AI is embedded in robots, cars and factories. “Nvidia’s dependence on South Korean suppliers is rising,” Jeff Kim, an analyst at Seoul-based KB Securities, wrote in a research note. Huang “needs a manufacturing site for physical AI”, Kim said. “South Korea is emerging as a perfect testbed.” Asia’s fourth-largest economy is also a major Nvidia customer, with the Silicon Valley-based company announcing in October that it would supply more than 260,000 of its most advanced AI chips to the government and some of the country’s biggest businesses. Analysts and investors say South Korea’s importance has been magnified after trade frictions spoiled sales of the most advanced semiconductors to China. “South Korean companies are running high-end factories, which need a lot of these kinds of chips,” said Seung-yub Lee, a fund manager at Seoul-based Quad Investment Management. President Lee Jae Myung has vowed to make AI investment a top policy priority, aiming to turn South Korea into one of the world’s top three AI powers amid a broader push to counter the economic impact of a shrinking population. “Korea is a critical part of our ecosystem,” Huang told reporters at a dinner with South Korean tech executives on Monday in Taipei, the first day of the annual, industry-defining Computex trade show. He highlighted robotics when asked where Nvidia could invest, because “Korea is a manufacturing country, and Korea has a population limit”. “We have a lot to do together,” he said. Huang’s plans clearly include courting the country’s 50 million-strong population. He will appear on one of South Korea’s most popular talk shows, “You Quiz on the Block”, which its production company, CJ ENM, likens to the Jimmy Fallon Show in the US. And he will don a Doosan Bears jersey to throw the first pitch at Sunday’s home game against the Kiwoom Heroes, with Doosan Group Chairman Park Jeong-won acting as the ceremonial first batter. Arms of chaebol Doosan develop robots and make materials used in Nvidia’s Blackwell chips. Park Ju-gun, head of corporate analysis firm Leaders Index, said Huang learned a lesson from his visit in October, when a meeting over chicken and beer with the chiefs of Samsung Electronics and Hyundai Motor at a Kkanbu Chicken outlet generated a big media buzz. Huang was coy when asked by Reuters which South Korean executives he would meet this time, but food will again be a feature. According to local media, he may have a Korean barbecue dinner in Seoul’s trendy Sungsu area with executives from SK Group, Hyundai Motor and LG Group. Reuters has reported likely meetings with LG Group Chairman Koo Kwang-mo and executives at South Korea’s top online platform, Naver.

Latest revenue figures lack meaningful upside after the stock’s sharp recent rally.
Tot grote onvrede van sommige collega's uit de filmindustrie heeft de gevierde regisseur Martin Scorsese geïnvesteerd in een bedrijf voor kunstmatige intelligentie. Hij heeft zijn naam verbonden aan een start-up die storyboards, oftewel de visuele uitwerking van een script, genereert. De 83-jarige Amerikaanse regisseur, bekend van klassiekers als Taxi Driver (1976), Goodfellas (1990), The Departed (2006) en The Wolf of Wall Street (2013) noemt de functie een "creatieve bevrijding". Het bedrijf Black Forest Labs heeft een video gepubliceerd waarin de filmmaker vertelt hoe moeilijk het voor hem is om over te brengen wat er in zijn hoofd zit over de film. "Tijd kost geld, en dit zorgde ervoor dat we sneller vooruit konden zonder aan kwaliteit of ambacht in te leveren", prijst Scorsese de AI-functie. Daar denkt de Nederlandse regisseur en storyboardartiest Richard Raaphorst heel anders over. "Tienduizenden mensen verliezen hiermee hun baan", zegt hij tegenover de NOS. "Dit is voor Scorsese een manier om een monopolie te claimen op dit ambacht." 'Weerzinwekkend' Ook andere storyboard- en conceptartiesten reageren boos. Een van hen is Karla Ortiz, die onder meer werk leverde voor Marvel-films als Black Panther en Avengers: Endgame. "Hij (red: Scorsese) gooit alle storyboardartiesten waar hij ooit mee gewerkt heeft voor de bus." Ze wijst erop dat dit soort programma's vaak getraind zijn met het werk van collega's, zonder dat daar rechten over zijn betaald. "Om zijn erfenis en kracht hiervoor te gebruiken is zo weerzinwekkend", zegt Ortiz op X. The New York Times bracht gisteren als eerste het nieuws over het partnerschap tussen Scorsese en het AI-bedrijf. De regisseur was gevraagd voor een interview, maar wilde niet reageren. De filmmaker lijkt de AI functie alleen te willen gebruiken voor het pre-productieproces, dus nog voordat er camera's of technici aan te pas komen. Rolf te Booij, die bijvoorbeeld wapens, maskers en zogeheten praktische special effects levert voor films en series op Amazon en Netflix, kan enerzijds wel begrip opbrengen voor deze keuze. "Je hebt in één keer de perfecte tool voor een toepassing als storyboarding. Maar aan de andere kant mis je ook iets: iemand die een storyboard maakt is bijvoorbeeld ook iemand die weet hoe je een shot opbouwt." Beperkte budgetten Wanneer klanten aankloppen bij Te Booij is er vaak al een storyboard gemaakt. Hij merkt dat er daarbij veel gebruik wordt gemaakt van kunstmatige intelligentie. Dat komt volgens hem omdat er, vooral in Nederland, beperkte budgetten zijn om een project uit te voren. Producenten maken met AI een beeld en vragen vervolgens of Te Booij het fysiek kan maken. "Wij hebben het geluk dat wij de vertaalslag maken naar fysieke producten", verwijst hij naar de opkomst van AI in de filmwereld. 'Tragische' evolutie De wereld van storyboards maken "is helemaal dood", zegt filmmaker Raaphorst. Hij maakt ze nog wel voor zijn eigen producties, met soms wel dertig tekeningen per dag, maar voor nieuwkomers zit er volgens hem geen toekomst meer in. Dat heeft alles te maken met de opkomst van AI. "Al eeuwenlang vervangen instrumenten menselijke handelingen, dus het is gewoon evolutie. Maar het is wel tragisch. Het is een beetje als kok die niet meer bezig is met kruiden maar iets kant-en-klaar uit een blik maakt: je voelt het recept niet meer."

The director defends investment in and use of AI-generated storyboards, saying the immediacy of communicating his vision to cast and crew is ‘creatively freeing’ Martin Scorsese’s announcement that he has invested in an AI company and uses the technology to create storyboards has triggered a backlash from fellow members of the film industry. The New York Times reported that Scorsese had been appointed in 2025 as a partner and adviser to Black Forest Labs, a German-based venture that specialises in text-to-image generative AI.

This sponsored article is brought to you by Black & Veatch. The biggest challenge facing utilities today isn’t what it seems. It’s not demand, even as load growth accelerates. It’s not extreme weather, even as “major events” become routine. It’s not cybersecurity, even as connections expand across the grid. The real challenge is this: Distribution systems were designed for a different reality. Long gone are the days of predictable demand, one-way power flow and isolated disruptions. At Black & Veatch, we see that leading utilities are no longer debating whether to modernize. They’re deciding how quickly they can do it, and how to do it at scale. Across grid modernization programs globally, three truths consistently emerge. They define what it takes to prepare the distribution system for what’s next: 1. Outage response is not a resilience strategy Resilience is being redefined in real time. A strategy centered on mobilizing crews and restoring service as quickly as possible is reactive, and increasingly insufficient. Resilience has to shift upstream into integrated system design. That starts with hardening. Stronger poles, undergrounding and structural upgrades all have a role, particularly in high-risk corridors. We’re also seeing meaningful gains from how the network is configured and how quickly it can respond without waiting on manual intervention. This is where distribution automation programs can change outcomes. Strategically placed reclosers, automated switches and fault indicators help contain disruptions before they spread. When combined with feeder reconfiguration and updated protection strategies, distribution automation investments allow utilities to set more aggressive recovery targets and achieve measurable reductions in outage duration and customer impact. 2. Future-readiness depends on DERs at scale Forecasting is less and less reliable. Only 19 percent of utilities report strong confidence in their ability to predict future load growth, according to the Black & Veatch 2025 Electric Report. Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) like solar, storage, EVs and behind-the-meter generation are exciting solutions; but they fundamentally change how the system operates. Power is no longer just delivered. It’s injected, stored and redirected in ways the system was never designed to manage. At scale, these challenges show up quickly — particularly on feeders where distributed generation is approaching or exceeding hosting capacity. Protection coordination becomes more difficult when fault current comes from multiple directions. Voltage becomes less predictable as generation fluctuates throughout the day. And planning models must now account for highly variable, location-specific behavior. Distribution modernization is fundamentally changing how the system is designed and operated so it can absorb disruption, manage bi-directional flows and respond in real time. Adapting to bi-directional power flow requires more than incremental updates. Leading utilities are responding by building flexibility into the system, moving beyond static assumptions toward dynamic hosting capacity and interconnection studies, planning that incorporates DER, EV adoption and localized load growth, and infrastructure aligned with the communications and control needed to manage it. 3. The edge must be intelligent, visible and secure As system stress and complexity increase, utilities need far greater visibility and control over the network. Historically, utilities relied on customer calls, Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) at the substation level and field crews to understand what was happening on the system. That model doesn’t hold up. You can’t effectively manage a system you can’t see. Plus, the most critical events are increasingly happening beyond the substation — on feeders, laterals, and at the edge where DER and customer behavior are interacting with the grid. Grid-edge technologies have become essential. Sensors, Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) and automated switching provide the raw data and control needed to move from reactive to proactive operations. In more advanced deployments, utilities are creating centralized control environments that allow operators to see and manage the distribution system in near real time. That capability is enabled by: Advanced communications networks to form the backbone of real-time grid visibility Distribution Management System (DMS) and Outage Management System (OMS) to enable faster, more coordinated system response Analytics, AI and machine learning to improve situational awareness, anticipate system conditions, and support operational decision-making The same connectivity enabling this real-time visibility and control also introduces new vulnerabilities, blurring the line between physical and cyber risk, yet many utilities manage them separately. Only 22 percent have unified teams in place, even as threats continue to rise, including a 50 percent increase in substation attacks and growing exposure to malware and ransomware, according to the Black & Veatch 2025 Electric Report. Cybersecurity and resilient network design must be embedded into the architecture from the outset—not layered on after the fact. See what bolder vision looks like Distribution modernization is fundamentally changing how the system is designed and operated so it can absorb disruption, manage bi-directional flows and respond in real time. To learn about a successful program, check out Georgia Power’s recent grid modernization program. Black & Veatch partnered with the utility on large-scale infrastructure upgrades. The results? Outages are down 76 percent, restoration times have improved by more than 80 percent and communities across Georgia are powered by a grid built to meet the future head-on. When the state faced the most destructive storm in the company’s history, Hurricane Helene, Georgia Power deployed a rapid response team that utilized its “smart grid” and restored power to more than 1 million customers within days. A grid built to meet the future head-on—that’s the result of bolder vision.
