- Intel Breaks From Its Past To Share Technology For New Foundry Offerings TG Daily | Jun 2 Intel came to market at the end of IBM’s dominance, and, with IBM’s help, eventually dominated PC and server segments. But because of its timing, much of Intel’s culture was formed by the practices common during its birth. While that initially helped Intel reach dominance, some of those practices are now out of favor, particularly those focused on the proprietary nature of the company.
- Nvidia Neuralangelo: A faster path to the industrial metaverse Computerworld | Jun 2 Turning 2D video clips into 3D structures and objects, this tool with a tongue-twisting name promises to speed up the duplication of real objects in a virtual environment.
- NVIDIA's Success Showcases Tech's Multiple-Choice and Focus Problem techspective | May 31 To say that NVIDIA’s recent financial results were impressive would be a huge understatement. I’ve been working as an internal or external analyst for just short of 40 years now, and there are two recurring mistakes that companies make when creating a new market or moving into a new existing market. The first is treating a list of requirements for success as if they were multiple-choice, not all-of-the-above, and the second is thinking the grass is greener in the market you don’t know.
- The Importance of Microsoft's 5-Point Blueprint for Public Governance of AI TechNewsWorld | May 29 Many technology leaders agree that while AI could be hugely beneficial to humans, it could also be misused or, through negligence, terminally damage humanity. But looking to governments to address this problem without guidance would be foolish given that politicians often don’t even understand the technology they’ve used for years, let alone something that just made it to market.

Nvidia and AI
"Nvidia has become kind of synonymous with AI. [The company] "has been investing in the AI boom for almost two decades. They saw an opportunity, and now everybody else is chasing it.”
Netflix and its password-sharing crackdown
[He reasoned that Netflix likely pays royalties when subscribers watch some shows or films on the platform, so non-paying viewers could add to the service's expenses while not contributing to revenue.] "In theory, Netflix loses money because they are paying royalties and people are getting the shows for free. It makes no sense for Netflix to allow that to continue."
Telly and its ad-sponsored free televisions and the ads’ potential impact
[Enderle cautions, however, that advertisers need to be attuned to their audience’s sensibilities.] “The ads will need to be things users don’t mind seeing. Otherwise, they are likely to get creative in finding ways not to see them. People don’t like ads. Putting them on a dedicated screen alone doesn’t fix that.”

Declines across product categories, including sinking appliance prices
“There’s been a reduction in demand and, in anticipation of a recession, a reduction in appliance marketing. The result has been a decline in sales that is being offset by price reductions. ...[M]ost of these categories are discretionary and not luxury offerings which often suffer when there is a broad reduction in demand or market downturn.”

How companies like Meta can avoid red flags on global data transfers by creating EU divisions
"That’s what IBM did when they faced similar issues decades ago, and it was very successful for IBM. If they can form a near stand-alone division that looks more like a native company, many of these problems should evaporate if that company can reestablish trust."
