AWS Launches Trn2 UltraServers with Trainium2 Chips, Challenging Nvidia’s AI Hardware Leadership

Nvidias hegemony in AI hardware was directly challenged by Amazon Web Services AWS with the release of its new Trn2 UltraServers, which are powered by Trainium2 AI chips. The servers, a supercomputer system component with hundreds of thousands of CPUs, offer up to 40% more affordable training costs for some AI models than those provided by Nvidia. These chips were among the first to be used by Apple and the AI firm Anthropic. Next year, AWS plans to introduce Trainium3 chips. With a more than 70% market share, Nvidia is increasingly up against rivals like AWS, Google, and Meta, which are creating their own AI chips. Although both AWS and Nvidia produce their chips at Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, AWS asserted that their supply chain was highly prepared. Read More..

In 2024, the UKs National Cyber Security Centre NCSC handled 430 cases, up 16% from 371 the year before. Twenty of these were ransomware attacks, and 347 constituted illegal data exfiltration. Five hundred fortytwo notices were sent to impacted organisations by the NCSC, more than tripling the number of notifications sent out the previous year. The agency warned of hackers using artificial intelligence AI to launch sophisticated cyberattacks and named ransomware the most imminent danger to vital infrastructure in its yearly evaluation. The NCSCs chief, Richard Horne, stressed the increasing complexity and ferocity of hostile cyber operations and warned against complacency about stateled and criminal cyber threats, which he feels are generally undervalued.

Hume AI Unveils “Voice Control” Tool for Customizable AI Voices Aligned with Brand Identity

A technology called "Voice Control," developed by the New Yorkbased AI company Hume, enables developers to produce unique AI voices consistent with brand identity. The function uses sliders from 100 to +100 to provide finegrained control over ten vocal qualities, such as buoyancy, assertiveness, and confidence. This method eliminates imprecise textbased descriptions, allowing exact modifications to create distinctive voices in AI applications like chatbots. Speech Control, which is in beta right now, is available to registered users and employs a novel "unsupervised approach" to maintain speech consistency while changing settings. With additional dimensions, basic voice options, and improved speech analysis and visualisation tools, Hume intends to provide developers with more freedom to produce captivating and brandconsistent AI experiences.

Resurgence of APTC01 Poison Ivy Group Targets Defense and Government Sectors with Phishing Tactics

Since 2007, APTC01, also known as the Poison Ivy gang, has been using advanced phishing techniques like spear phishing and watering hole assaults to target the defence, government, technology, and educational sectors. Researchers have noticed a revival of this group. The Sliver Remote Access Trojan RAT has been used recently to mimic trustworthy websites. A malicious, obfuscated.NET loader masquerading as a PDF file is automatically downloaded by victims when they visit these websites. This loader makes data theft, privilege escalation, and remote operations possible by installing the Sliver RAT, downloading and running shellcode, and decrypting URLs and AES keys. It is recommended that organisations maintain robust cybersecurity safeguards and be on the lookout for phishing attempts. Read More..

Supercomputing 2024 SC24 saw Lenovo unveil cuttingedge energyefficient solutions to assist AIdriven corporate and research revolution. By doing away with powerhungry fans, its 6th Generation Neptune Liquid Cooling technology improves energy efficiency with vertically oriented servers and entirely liquidcooled servers. It makes highperformance computing accessible to businesses of all sizes without requiring significant changes to their infrastructure because it is compatible with regular 19inch racks. Lenovo systems, propelled by NVIDIAs GB200 Grace Blackwell NVL4 and H200 NVL platforms, facilitate trillionparameter AI models, speeding up insights and cutting expenses. ENEA and Cineca are working on crucial clean energy projects that use Neptunes cooling technology to reduce energy use by up to 98%. Additionally, Lenovo collaborates with colocation providers to offer private AI solutions, increasing energy savings by 30%. Read More..

Hugging Face Introduces SmolVLM Compact VisionLanguage AI for CostEffective Applications

Hugging Face has introduced SmolVLM, a tiny and effective visionlanguage AI model designed for smaller businesses and AI enthusiasts to use at a reaso

Hugging Face has introduced SmolVLM, a tiny and effective visionlanguage AI model designed for smaller businesses and AI enthusiasts to use at a reasonable cost. SmolVLM can be used for personal and business purposes and is opensourced under the Apache 2.0 license. The model can be deployed on laptops or localised systems because it uses less GPU RAM 5.02GB than larger models like Qwen2VL. Base, Synthetic tuned on synthetic data, and Instruct optimised for enduser applications are the two variations of SmolVLM. In contrast to Qwen2VL, which uses 16,000 tokens for processing prompts and a single image, it effectively encodes text and pictures into tokens. For businesses looking for practical and reasonably priced AI integration, SmolVLMs small design offers scalable AI capabilities. Read More..

Alibaba Unveils Marcoo1 A ReasoningFocused AI Model Optimized for Complex ProblemSolving

The Qwen27BInstruct model created the reasoningfocused AI model Marcoo1, which Alibaba has released. It is designed to solve complex problems. Marcoo1

The Qwen27BInstruct model created the reasoningfocused AI model Marcoo1, which Alibaba has released. It is designed to solve complex problems. Marcoo1, highlighted in a nonpeerreviewed academic paper on arXiv, uses sophisticated reasoning methods such as reflection mechanisms, Monte Carlo Tree Search, and chainofthought finetuning. Its strong points are slang translation, comprehension of colloquial nuances, and resolving openended questions. However, just a portion of the dataset is opensourced. Hugging Face hosts it under the Apache 2.0 license, which permits personal and commercial use. Marcoo1 improves accuracy by using testtime computation to execute single queries more efficiently than hardwaredriven improvements. Despite its potential, scholars observe that it must still be a complete reasoning model. Read More..
