The generative AI boom is not only reshaping software and Silicon Valley balance sheets, it is also remaking the job market for the people building the physical backbone of AI.  As tech companies race to expand the data centers that train and run large AI models, construction workers who can help deliver these massive projects are seeing unusually large jumps in pay, along with benefits that were rare in the trades just a few years ago. In many regions, moving into data cent

Zyphra’s unveiling of ZAYA1 marks a significant moment in the AI hardware landscape, proving that large-scale model training can succeed outside NVIDIA’s well-established ecosystem.  After a year of collaboration with AMD and IBM, Zyphra trained ZAYA1 entirely on AMD Instinct MI300X GPUs, Pensando networking, and the ROCm software stack, demonstrating that AMD’s platform can support major foundation models without exotic configurations or performance compromises (Artificial
