In 2025, the internet’s fragility and AI’s complexity collided in public. The big vendors responded by buying the pieces they need to sell the integrated story that they have AI risk under control.
Robots aren’t going to fold your laundry by February. But Voice of Innovation Niv Sundaram predicts that an urgent caregiver shortage will move humanoids “from warehouses to living rooms” in 2026.
Marvell is inking a deal for optical interconnect startup Celestial AI in a massive bet that the industry has shifted from being compute-constrained to bandwidth-constrained.
As AI training pushes data centers to unprecedented power densities, researchers reveal an affordable solution that lets computing thrive on fluctuating renewable energy.
In Part 1 of Voice of Innovation Matty Bakkeren’s 2026 predictions series, he explores how AI, power, cooling, and supply chains are reshaping data center infrastructure for a utility-scale future.
As up to 10 million jobs disappear and quality content moves behind paywalls, the question isn’t if AI will reshape society. It’s whether 2026 is the year we’ll control the burn or watch it spread.
