Adopting AI at scale can be difficult. Enterprises around the world are discovering the pace of AI deployment is frustratingly slow as they face implementation, integration, and customisation challenges. Generative AI is undoubtedly powerful, but it can be complex, particularly for businesses starting from scratch.To help organisations overcome the hurdles associated with AI adoption, Reply has introduced...

Boston Consulting Group (BCG) has found a widening chasm separating an elite of AI masters from the majority of firms struggling to generate any value from their AI investments.A study from BCG found that a mere five percent of companies are successfully achieving bottom-line value from AI at scale. In sharp contrast, 60 percent are failing to achieve any material value, reporting only minimal gains...

AI is the cream of the crop in today’s tech field, with industries relying on generative AI to improve operations and boost productivity. One sector that using AI with measurable results is agriculture, with vegetable seed companies harnessing the technology to identify the best vegetable varieties out of thousands of options. This facility can help growers in diverse markets who work in very...

As more companies in Asia Pacific adopt artificial intelligence to boost their operations, the pressure on data centres is growing fast. Traditional facilities, built for earlier generations of computing, are struggling to keep up with the heavy energy use and cooling demands of modern AI systems. By 2030, GPU-driven workloads could push rack power densities toward 1 MW, making incremental upgrades no...

Walking into Huawei’s Shanghai Acoustics R&D Centre, I expected a standard facility tour. What I encountered instead was a comprehensive automotive sound engineering operation that challenges the established order of in-car audio systems.The facility, which Huawei has developed since beginning serious audio research investments in 2012, houses three distinct testing environments: a fully anechoic...

Open-source AI development took centre stage at Huawei Connect 2025 last week, with Huawei laying out implementation timelines and the technical specifics around making its entire AI software stack publicly available by year-end.The announcements came with context that matters to developers: frank acknowledgement of past friction, specific commitments about what components will be released, and details...

Researchers have developed a new attack that reveals privacy vulnerabilities by determining whether your data was used to train AI models.The method, named CAMIA (Context-Aware Membership Inference Attack), was developed by researchers from Brave and the National University of Singapore and is far more effective than previous attempts at probing the ‘memory’ of AI models.There is growing concern of...

When ransomware attacks like Akira and Ryuk began crippling organisations worldwide, the cybersecurity industry’s first instinct was predictable: build bigger walls, deploy more aggressive automated responses, and lock down everything. But there was a different problem emerging, according to Romanus Prabhu Raymond, Director of Technology at ManageEngine.The company’s customers were demanding aggressive...

Samsung is overcoming limitations of existing benchmarks to better assess the real-world productivity of AI models in enterprise settings. The new system, developed by Samsung Research and named TRUEBench, aims to address the growing disparity between theoretical AI performance and its actual utility in the workplace.As businesses worldwide accelerate their adoption of large language models (LLMs) to...

Imagine connecting thousands of powerful AI chips scattered in dozens of server cabinets and making them work together as if they were a single, massive computer. That is exactly what Huawei demonstrated at HUAWEI CONNECT 2025, where the company unveiled a breakthrough in AI infrastructure architecture that could reshape how the world builds and scales artificial intelligence systems.Instead of traditional...
