Java Development Kit (JDK) 26, a planned update to standard Java due March 17, 2026, has gathered 10 features so far. The following features are officially targeted to JDK 26: a fourth preview of primitive types in patterns, instanceof, and switch, ahead-of-time object caching, an eleventh incubation of the Vector API, second previews of lazy

For years, the narrative around artificial intelligence has centered on GPUs (graphics processing units) and their compute power. Companies have readily embraced the idea that expensive, state-of-the-art GPUs are essential for training and running AI models. Public cloud providers and hardware manufacturers have promoted this belief, marketing newer, more powerful chips as crucial for remaining

The gist A2A is an open, vendor-neutral protocol that allows diverse AI agents to seamlessly communicate, coordinate, and delegate work. The protocol shifts AI focus from a single monolithic agent to collaborative multi-agent teams solving complex business workflows. A2A governs agent-to-agent communication, using structured task objects and agent cards to ensure secure, opaque interoperability. What

Testing APIs and applications was challenging in the early devops days. As teams sought to advance their CI/CD pipelines and support continuous deployment, test automation platforms gained popularity, and many devops organizations developed continuous testing strategies. While shifting left on QA, implementing security testing, and increasing observability are now devsecops non-negotiables for many organizations, these

Enterprises have spent the past two years determining which large language model they should use. GPT or Claude? Gemini or an open-source alternative? But as these models begin to converge in terms of quality and capabilities, the question of which model to use becomes less important than how to actually use them. Ultimately, the real

Chatbots once symbolized digital transformation — those polite text boxes on corporate websites and service portals promised to make support smarter and cheaper. The addition of generative AI (genAI) to the tools in recent years has made them seem more natural in conversations, but they’re still just automated answer engines. Now as 2025 comes to

Once upon a time, Apple introduced a new iPhone every year. These days, in some years it introduces five of them. Have we reached saturation point? Possibly. Solution? Ship six iPhones a year. As expected, Apple is building a new market dynamic. Think of it this way. Until now, competitors knew the pace of Apple releases, a cadence that

Last week, Amazon and Perplexity had a major falling out when the e-commerce giant sent a sharply worded legal demand letter to the AI company, demanding changes in the way Perplexity’s shopping agent works. The background story is that Perplexity has a function in its Comet AI browser that allows an AI “agent” to shop

Over the next few years, agentic AI is expected to bring not only rapid technological breakthroughs, but a societal transformation, redefining how we live, work and interact with the world. And this shift is happening quickly. “By 2028, 33% of enterprise software applications will include agentic AI, up from less than 1% in 2024, enabling

Nvidia hopes that its new open-source AI model for physics, Apollo, will find application in a wide variety of high-tech scientific and industrial fields. It unveiled the new model family at SC25, the International Conference for High Performance Computing, Networking, Storage, and Analysis, just a month after unveiling four others: Nemotron for agentic AI, Clara
