TechSpective’s Artificial Intelligence section covers AI the way people actually working with it need it covered — not as a trend to celebrate or fear, but as a set of real developments with real implications for how we work, what we build, and how we stay secure.
The emphasis here is on what things mean, not just what happened. When a new model drops or a major platform ships an agentic capability, the coverage examines what it actually changes and for whom. When research surfaces about enterprise AI adoption rates or AI security risks, the analysis connects those findings to decisions that organizations and practitioners have to make. Topics include large language models and generative AI, agentic systems and autonomous agent risk, AI PCs and on-device inference, AI infrastructure and data readiness, and the security implications of deploying AI in production environments.
The AI content space is saturated with hype and hot takes. This section is built around a different standard — contributors with enough technical grounding and enough industry experience to tell the difference between a genuine inflection point and a well-funded press tour.
The archive spans 28 pages of AI coverage developed during the period when enterprise AI moved from theoretical to operational. If you want signal rather than noise, this is a good place to start.
The PC industry has never been shy about creating labels. Multimedia PC. Internet PC. Ultrabook. Creator laptop. Gaming rig. Workstation. Some of those labels described real shifts in architecture or use. Others mostly offered marketing teams a new sticker for […]

AMD is aggressively reshaping local AI development with massive memory capabilities in its new Ryzen AI Halo platform and Max PRO processors, leaving competitors scrambling to match this raw power. Here in my home office in the high desert of
At this year’s Google I/O, the atmosphere at the Shoreline Amphitheatre was electric as the CEO laid out a vision for a world deeply intertwined with agentic AI. We heard about the sheer computing muscle of the new TPU 8i
If I’ve learned anything in my decades covering the tech industry, it’s that we have a pathological obsession with “the engine.” In the 90s, we obsessed over clock speeds while our software crashed. In the 2000s, we obsessed over browser
In the technology world, we often talk about “inflection points” as if they are common occurrences. They aren’t. Most companies spend decades searching for one, only to miss the turn when it finally arrives. But today, AMD didn’t just meet
For decades, the technology industry lived and breathed by the cadence of a few select “can’t-miss” events. We remember the peak of COMDEX, the frenzy of early Macworlds, and, most importantly for the silicon world, the Intel Developer Forum (IDF).

For years, the technology industry has operated under the shadow of a single, green-tinted giant. NVIDIA, through a combination of visionary leadership and the early realization that GPUs were the secret sauce for parallel processing, effectively “owned” the AI market
The history of the PC is littered with “revolutionary” features that ended up being little more than expensive paperweights. We’ve seen it with 3D screens, we’ve seen it with dedicated social media buttons, and lately, we’ve been seeing it with

Web application firewalls have been around for roughly 30 years. In that time, web traffic has fundamentally changed—from humans browsing pages to APIs, bots, and now AI agents executing transactions at scale. The WAF hasn’t kept pace. And in a

Ninety-nine percent is not a statistic you expect to see in a security report. But that’s the finding from a new survey of 500 U.S. CISOs: 99.4% of organizations experienced at least one security incident tied to their SaaS or
