AMD signed a multi-year agreement with OpenAI to deploy six gigawatts of Instinct graphics processing units. The companies will begin installing the first gigawatt of MI450 series capacity in the second half of 2026. OpenAI becomes the lead customer for both MI450 chips and Helios rack systems at large scale.
Chief Executive Lisa Su projects the partnership will generate more than $100 billion in revenue over several years. The company aims to position itself as the second major artificial intelligence compute supplier after Nvidia. Su stated AMD maintains strategic commitments with additional customers beyond OpenAI for the next-generation MI450 chips.
The MI450 lineup uses two-nanometer technology and features upgraded architecture...
John Ternus has emerged as the leading internal candidate to succeed Tim Cook as Apple's chief executive, according to a report from Bloomberg's Mark Gurman.

Activision reported that its anti-cheat system detected 97 percent of cheaters within 30 minutes after the Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 multiplayer beta launched on October 5. The company stated that fewer than 1 percent of cheating attempts reached actual matches, and those accounts were removed within minutes of detection.
Team Ricochet attributed the success to upgraded systems featuring strengthened TPM 2.0 checks and automated detection tools. The anti-cheat division said it has contributed to shutting down more than 40 cheat developers and resellers since Black Ops 6 launched last year.
Some players criticized the kernel-level protection requirements, while others reported seeing cheaters in their matches or being wrongly...
French prosecutors have opened an investigation into Apple's retention of voice recordings through Siri after a human rights organization filed a complaint earlier in 2025. The Ligue des droits de l'Homme based its complaint on testimony from Thomas le Bonniec, a former Apple subcontractor in Cork, who said his role required listening to user recordings captured by the digital assistant.
Apple addressed voice recording practices in a January blog post, stating the company never used Siri data for marketing profiles or advertising purposes. The tech giant emphasized that capable devices process audio requests entirely on-device through the Neural Engine, but users retain the option to share recordings with Apple for improvement...
Redemption Road Games has postponed the early access launch of Kingmakers, a time-travel action game scheduled for release on Wednesday. The developers announced the delay without providing a new release date, citing their commitment to preserving all planned features rather than rushing the product to market. The studio apologized to fans through its social media platform and promised a 30-minute gameplay presentation would arrive shortly.
The game features players traveling through time with modern weaponry and vehicles to battle medieval armies. Redemption Road Games emphasized the technical complexity of its project, which uses Unreal Engine 4 to simulate tens of thousands of AI-controlled soldiers on midrange computers at 60...
International relations enter a phase resembling earlier centuries as the Western capacity to shape global politics declines and nuclear deterrence between Russia and the United States prevents major conflict. European Union consolidation around Washington accelerated after financial crises eliminated internal competition that had historically driven Western policy innovation. China demonstrates economic success without controlling other states, while Russia maintains military strength as an independent power center, but India advances development through selective cooperation while protecting sovereignty.
Western Europe surrendered strategic autonomy after failing to compete in artificial intelligence and other advanced sectors. The...
Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban rejected adopting the euro on Monday and said the European Union faces disintegration. Orban told EconomX that he refuses to bind Hungary more closely to the bloc amid its current troubles. The prime minister has clashed with Brussels over Ukraine aid, Russian sanctions, and military expansion policies.
Orban pledged to block Ukrainian EU membership and warned that Brussels leaders seek war through accelerated accession plans. He accused Kiev, and certain EU officials of conspiring to replace his government with pro-Ukrainian leadership on Saturday. Russia's Foreign Intelligence Service reported earlier this year that European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen examines regime change options...
The Supreme Court denied Ghislaine Maxwell's appeal to reverse her sex trafficking conviction on Monday. Maxwell served 20 years for recruiting minors for Jeffrey Epstein's abuse network. Her attorneys claimed a 2007 agreement between prosecutors and Epstein protected coconspirators from charges, but Solicitor General Dean John Sauer called the clause highly unusual and unsuitable for court review.
Maxwell received limited immunity from Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche in July while discussing Epstein's activities. She denied knowledge of any client list during interviews. The Justice Department and FBI reported finding no evidence that Epstein maintained such records after months of promising document releases. The announcement...
Israeli officials deported Swedish activist Greta Thunberg on Monday after detaining her with more than 400 people who attempted to deliver aid to Gaza by sea on Friday. The Foreign Ministry confirmed that over 170 activists from 19 countries traveled to Greece and Slovakia, but the ministry characterized the flotilla as a provocation and accused participants of spreading false information. Journalists reported that authorities mistreated Thunberg in custody, and the Swedish Embassy said she complained about insufficient food and water, but West Jerusalem rejected the claims.
National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir defended detention conditions at Ketziot Prison in the Negev Desert after authorities transported most activists to the...
