For many UK executives, AI investment has become a necessity, not an experiment in innovation. Boards now demand evidence of measurable impact – whether through efficiency gains, revenue growth, or reduced operational risk. Yet, as Pete Smyth, CEO of Leading Resolutions notes, many SMEs treat AI as an exploratory exercise, not a structured business strategy. The result is wasted investment and a lack of...

AI’s effects on continuous development and deployment pipelines are becoming difficult to ignore. However, decision-makers in software development functions need to consider a broad range of elements when considering the uses of the technology.The challenges of deploying AI at scaleDeploying artificial intelligence isn’t the same as deploying, for example, a web app. Traditional software updates are...

The AI chip wars just got a new heavyweight contender. Qualcomm, the company that powers billions of smartphones worldwide, has made an audacious leap into AI data centre chips – a market where Nvidia has been minting money at an almost unfathomable rate and where fortunes rise and fall on promises of computational supremacy.On October 28, 2025, Qualcomm threw down the gauntlet with its AI200 and AI250...

AI is spreading through workplaces faster than any other technology in recent memory. Every day, employees connect AI technologies to enterprise systems, often without permission or oversight from IT security teams. The result is what experts call shadow AI – a growing web of tools and integrations that access company data unmonitored.Dr.Tal Shapira, Co founder and CTO at SaaS security and AI governance...

For all the progress in artificial intelligence, most video security systems still fail at recognising context in real-world conditions. The majority of cameras can capture real-time footage, but struggle to interpret it. This is a problem turning into a growing concern for smart city designers, manufacturers and schools, each of which may depend on AI to keep people and property safe.Lumana, an AI video...

It’s no longer news that AI is transforming how people communicate at work. The bad (and less common) news, however, is that AI is also making those conversations harder to control. From chat apps to collaboration tools, employees exchange thousands of messages every day, many of which now pass through AI systems that summarise, analyse, or even respond on their behalf. For enterprises, that creates a...

The acquisition of a legacy platform like AOL by Bending Spoons shows the latent value of long-standing digital ecosystems. AOL’s 30 million monthly active users represent an enduring brand and a data-rich resource that can be used in AI-driven services. That statement is true only if the data is properly governed and integrated. Such deals may blend nostalgia with business advantage, but present new...
