AI adoption is reaching an inflection point as the focus shifts from training new models to serving them. For the AI startups vying for a slice of Nvidia’s pie, it’s now or never. Compared to training, inference is a much more diverse workload, which presents an opportunity for chip startups to carve out a niche for themselves. Large batch inference requires a different mix of compute, memory, and bandwidth than an AI assistant or code agent. Because of this, inference has become increasingly heterogeneous, certain aspects of which may be better suited to GPUs and other more specialized hardware.  Nvidia’s…

The UK’s outfitting of its Bay-class auxiliary vessel RFA Lyme Bay as a naval mine warfare (NMW) ‘mothership’ carrying uncrewed systems for the mine-hunting role illustrates how the Royal Navy’s (RN’s) ‘hybrid navy’ approach can provide flexibility to respond to events like the current Middle East crisis, the UK’s navy chief told a conference in London.

Jeffrey Koses paced the floor of his home in the middle of the night in 1995, trying to get his newborn son back to sleep by talking him through potential responses to a stack of procurement protests waiting on his desk.Somewhere in those 2 a.m. conversations, three ideas took hold. The government needed to communicate better with industry to avoid protests. The workforce shouldn’t be stuck working 16-hour days just to keep up. And technology should make the job easier, not harder.Today, as the senior procurement executive at the General Services Administration, Koses applies those same principles to one of…

The Professional Fighters League heads to South Dakota with a stacked PFL Sioux Falls card headlined by the return of former interim Bellator welterweight titleholder Logan Storley. Emanating from the Sanford Pentagon, Storley will step into the main event spotlight for a high-stakes clash against Florim Zendeli. Coming off a decision loss against Thad Jean during last year’s PFL World Tournament, Storley will look to climb back into the win column in his home state.

Roger Waldron May 1, 2026 3:32 pm 3 min read As the federal acquisition community implements the Revolutionary Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Overhaul (RFO) and consolidates procurement operations, the challenge of contract duplication remains.
