Google’s New Data Agents and Tools for the Agentic Data Cloud

Google's Agentic Data Cloud announcement tackles the core problem of grounding AI agents in enterprise data with near-100% accuracy, shipping a suite of new data agents, conversational analytics across multiple databases, and managed MCP servers—making it easier to build secure, context-aware agents without hosting your own infrastructure.

Apple and Google Build Verifiable Private AI Infrastructure on Cloud

This article explains how Apple's Private Cloud Compute (PCC) runs on Google Cloud using Confidential Computing, Intel TDX, and NVIDIA Blackwell GPUs to create hardware-enforced isolation for AI inference. The critical detail is that the entire host stack is open-sourced for external verification—a move that sets a new bar for trust in cloud AI infrastructure.

Profiling in PyTorch (Part 2): From nn.Linear to a Fused MLP

The article traces the journey from a single nn.Linear to a fused MLP, showing that torch.compile fuses GeLU and multiplication into one Triton kernel while leaving the three cuBLAS GEMMs untouched. It then introduces hand-tuned Liger kernels that achieve the same fusion without compile latency or shape specialization, trading a few microseconds of peak performance for robustness across changing input sizes.

OpenAI acquires Ona to give Codex agents persistent cloud execution

OpenAI is acquiring Ona to give Codex agents persistent, secure cloud environments where they can work for hours or days, not just minutes. For organizations moving agents into production, this means agents operate inside the org's own cloud with controlled credential scoping, logging, and review, while OpenAI provides the orchestration.
