America’s data-centre backlash puts the AI boom at risk

America’s data-centre backlash puts the AI boom at risk

FROM THE top of the slide, which curves into a little backyard pool, the view as recently as April would have been of lush Ohio farmland, dense forest and pretty clapboard houses. Now it is of six giant weatherproof tents of the type more commonly used by the military to house fighter jets or by aid organisers in disaster zones. These will soon contain perhaps $30bn-worth of cutting-edge semiconductors. Along with a clutch of gas turbines to provide power, they occupy a site the size of an airport terminal. If Meta, the site’s owner, stays on track to bring its “Prometheus” data centre online in 2026, it will dedicate an entire gigawatt (GW) of power—the amount needed to power as many as 1m homes, or roughly the output of a large nuclear reactor—to artificial intelligence. The money will expand total AI computing capacity, measured in the amount of power consumed by data centres, from just under 12GW in America currently to as much as five times that amount by the end of the decade (see …

An industrial risk the Qatar blast shares with accidents in India | Explained

An industrial risk the Qatar blast shares with accidents in India | Explained

The story so far: An explosion at the Barzan gas facility in Ras Laffan, Qatar, claimed the lives of 12 Indian workers and one Pakistani worker on June 21. While local authorities have just begun their investigation, QatarEnergy, the country’s national energy company that maintains the gas facility, said the blast occurred when workers were restarting it — alluding to a well-known risk, but seemingly poorly managed in India, of a type of industrial activity called a transient process. How can restarting be dangerous? An industrial plant is often at its most dangerous not when it is running at full capacity because that is what it was designed to do. It is more dangerous when it is starting up or shutting down because during these transient operations, the facility is moving from one state to another. In fact, a typical industrial facility will spend more than 90% of its time in steady-state operations, i.e. when it is not switching between states. In this period, variables like temperature, pressure, and flow rates are fixed and/or predictable. …

World Music Day 2026: Six women artists discuss why Indian industry needs to reclaim risk

World Music Day 2026: Six women artists discuss why Indian industry needs to reclaim risk

Music today sits at an interesting intersection of technology, identity, and rapidly changing listening habits. But for many artists, the core idea of what makes music meaningful has stayed surprisingly constant. Whether it is playback singers, indie composers, DJs or singer-songwriters, women across India’s music landscape are reshaping the conversation around creativity, authenticity, and industry expectations. Music Day Special: Women artists on what defines good music, risk, creativity and India’s evolving soundscape. On World Music Day 2026, female voices from across genres—Shalmali Kholgade, Jasleen Royal, Kayan, DJ Nina Shah, Prateeksha Srivastava and Lisa Mishra—reflect on what good music means today, what the industry still misunderstands, and how artists are navigating a world shaped by both creativity and algorithms. Good music is still about feeling, not formulas Across all six artists, one idea comes up repeatedly: good music is not defined by trends or charts, but by how deeply it stays with you. For Shalmali Kholgade, the definition has remained steady over time. “I don’t think my idea of good music has changed since the time …

G7 Critical Minerals Push Targets AI and Chip Supply Chain Risk

G7 Critical Minerals Push Targets AI and Chip Supply Chain Risk

The hardware behind AI data centers, semiconductors, electric vehicles, industrial robots, telecom gear, and defense systems depends on minerals supply chains the G7 no longer wants concentrated in China. At this week’s G7 summit, leaders put that hardware risk back on the agenda. The question now is whether governments and manufacturers can finance enough refining, recycling, magnet production, and long-term purchase deals to make alternatives viable. A June 17 summit report said G7 leaders planned closer cooperation on critical minerals, including stockpiling, recycling, and a platform supported by the International Energy Agency. The push builds on the G7 Critical Minerals Action Plan and Critical Minerals Production Alliance, announced at the June 2025 summit in Kananaskis, Canada. For APAC technology manufacturers and buyers, the risk is not just where hardware is assembled. Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, India, Vietnam, and other regional hubs may make more high-value electronics and infrastructure, while AI data center growth is already putting new pressure on regional power planning. Final assembly does not remove exposure to minerals still refined, processed, or licensed …

Why Singapore’s AI Lead May Also Be Its Biggest Security Risk

Why Singapore’s AI Lead May Also Be Its Biggest Security Risk

A recent Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR) drawn from more than 31,000 security incidents and 22,000 confirmed breaches across 145 countries has identified four accelerating threat vectors AI-ready enterprises are at risk for. They include shadow AI leaking sensitive data through unauthorized tools, human error driving 62% of breaches, third-party compromise now implicated in nearly half of all incidents, and ransomware hitting 96% of Small & Medium Businesses (SMBs). Each of these cases grows in proportion to the operational speed at which Singapore enterprises have made their competitive identity. This article examines how these enterprises are exposed, and what Singaporean IT leaders driving AI adoption can do to cushion the impact of these risks. The DBIR examined what happens inside organizations when AI adoption outpaces governance, and the finding is uncomfortable for any CISO operating in a high-adoption environment. Verizon found that 67% of users accessed AI services through non-corporate accounts on company devices. The research also found that 45% of employees use AI tools — sanctioned or not — on corporate systems, up from …

Tech stocks show big warning signs The bank …

iPhone Exploits, Zero-Days Put Millions at Risk

iPhone Exploits, Zero-Days Put Millions at Risk

Apple’s security year so far has been anything but quiet. The company’s 2026 security cycle has been dominated by a steady stream of updates across iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, tvOS, visionOS, and Safari, with most major platforms now on versions 26.5 or later. Below is a breakdown of the company’s key security events so far this year. Apple’s first zero-day of 2026 One of the most significant security events of the year came in February, when Apple disclosed CVE-2026-20700, a vulnerability affecting a core operating system component known as dyld. The flaw could allow attackers to execute malicious code on vulnerable devices. Apple warned that it had been used in what the company described as “extremely sophisticated” attacks against specific individuals. The issue affected iPhones, iPads, Macs, Apple Watches, Apple TVs, and Vision Pro devices before Apple released patches through iOS 26.3, iPadOS 26.3, macOS Tahoe 26.3, watchOS 26.3, tvOS 26.3, and visionOS 26.3. According to Apple’s advisory, “An attacker with memory write capability may be able to execute arbitrary code.” Researchers noted that the …
