Netomi, the San Francisco-based startup building AI systems for enterprise customer service, said Thursday that it has raised $110 million in new funding in a round led by Accenture Ventures, with participation from Adobe Ventures, WndrCo, Silver Lake Waterman, NAVER Ventures, Metis Strategy and Fin
Amazon Web Services on Tuesday launched one of the most consequential enterprise AI plays in the company's 20-year history, simultaneously bringing OpenAI's most powerful models to its Bedrock platform, unveiling a new agentic developer framework, releasing a desktop AI productivity tool called Amaz
Enterprise AI teams running centralized orchestration stacks now have a new variable to account for: AWS Quick, which expanded this week to a desktop-native agent that builds a persistent personal knowledge graph and executes actions across local files and SaaS tools — outside the visibility of most
Bringing AI agents into the enterprise software development lifecycle is fast becoming the norm. As developers experiment with new platforms, organizations are exposed to potential security and orchestration failures. Systems that work in pilots may fail once the agents start working with real-time
Something shifted in enterprise RAG in Q1 2026. VB Pulse data spanning January through March tells a consistent story: the market stopped adding retrieval layers and started fixing the ones it already has. Call it the retrieval rebuild. The survey covered three consecutive monthly waves from organiz
Enterprises can't fix their GPU waste problem because the fix makes the problem worse. Releasing idle capacity would improve utilization, but the same shortage driving GPU prices up is exactly why no team will give capacity back. So the fleet sits at roughly 5%, billed by the hour, and the cycle tig
For most data engineering teams, managing pipeline reliability often means waiting for an alert, manually tracing failures across distributed jobs and clusters, and fixing problems after they've already hit the business. Agentic AI needs the data to be there, clean and on time. A pipeline that fails
Training AI reasoning models demands resources that most enterprise teams do not have. Engineering teams are often forced to choose between distilling knowledge from large, expensive models or relying on reinforcement learning techniques that provide sparse feedback. Researchers at JD.com and severa
The AI race lately has felt a bit like a game of tennis: first, Anthropic releases a new, pricey state-of-the-art proprietary model for general users (Claude Opus 4.7), then, a week or so later, its rival OpenAI volleys back with one of its own (GPT-5.5). And all the while, Chinese companies like De
Mistral AI, the Paris-based artificial intelligence company valued at €11.7 billion ($13.8 billion), today released Workflows in public preview — a production-grade orchestration layer designed to move enterprise AI systems out of proofs of concept and into the business processes that generate reven
Microsoft and OpenAI on Monday announced a sweeping overhaul of the partnership that has defined the commercial AI era, dismantling key pillars of exclusivity and revenue-sharing that bound the two companies together for years and replacing them with a looser, time-limited arrangement that gives bot
Xiaomi, the Chinese firm best known for its smartphones and electric vehicles, has lately been shipping some incredibly affordable and high-powered open source AI large language models. The trend continued today with the release of Xiaomi MiMo-V2.5 and Xiaomi MiMo-V2.5-Pro, both available under the
Presented by Edgeverve Supply chains are where legacy integration models reach their limits. As partner networks expand and operational volatility increases, traditional middleware is buckling under costs and complexity. That’s why supply chain has emerged as a proving ground for automation‑led inte
AI R&D runs on a cycle of hypothesis, experiment, and analysis — each step demanding substantial manual engineering effort. A new framework from researchers at SII-GAIR aims to close that bottleneck by automating the full optimization loop for training data, model architectures, and learning algorit
Enterprise teams that fine-tune their RAG embedding models for better precision may be unintentionally degrading the retrieval quality those pipelines depend on, according to new research from Redis. The paper, "Training for Compositional Sensitivity Reduces Dense Retrieval Generalization," tested w
There is a war brewing between AI and consulting. Akin to an armies slow march towards the castle, a new technology is coming to dethrone the expert guessers of Mckinsey, Nielsen, Gartner, Publicis and the rest. Any consulting that involves analyzing people (think all of marketing, research, polling
The most expensive AI failure I have seen in enterprise deployments did not produce an error. No alert fired. No dashboard turned red. The system was fully operational, it was just consistently, confidently wrong. That is the reliability gap. And it is the problem most enterprise AI programs are not
The stochastic challenge Traditional software is predictable: Input A plus function B always equals output C. This determinism allows engineers to develop robust tests. On the other hand, generative AI is stochastic and unpredictable. The exact same prompt often yields different results on Monday ve
During Operation Lunar Peek in November 2024, attackers gained unauthenticated remote admin access — and eventual root — across more than 13,000 exposed Palo Alto Networks management interfaces. Palo Alto Networks scored CVE-2024-0012 at 9.3 and CVE-2024-9474 at 6.9 under CVSS v4.0. NVD scored the s
The whale has resurfaced. DeepSeek, the Chinese AI startup offshoot of High-Flyer Capital Management quantitative analysis firm, became a near-overnight sensation globally in January 2025 with the release of its open source R1 model that matched proprietary U.S. giants. It's been an epoch in AI sinc
