System-level optimization of existing infrastructure to meet growing AI demand through proactive capacity planning, fleet optimization, density gains, and energy-aware lifecycle management.

ModCon 2026 unveils a unified, open AI stack: Mojo 1.0 and the Modular Platform go open source, Modular Cloud becomes production-ready across GPUs and accelerators, and MAX licensing shifts to a source-available, alliance-friendly model for heterogeneous hardware.

Modular demonstrates silicon-agnostic software portability by unifying its Mojo and MAX stack with Qualcomm's Cloud AI accelerators, enabling the same codebase to run across NVIDIA, AMD GPUs and NPUs from GPT-2 to Gemma 4 in live serving.

Mojo🔥 becomes fully open source under Apache 2.0, revealing the compiler, toolchain, and standard library in Modular's GitHub repository to accelerate GPUs, AI accelerators, and broader compute via LLVM-powered tooling.

Overview of how top academic teams built and evaluated grounded-reasoning AI agents in a live competition, using OfficeQA benchmarks to test generalization on enterprise document corpora and to extract design patterns in preprocessing, retrieval, verification, and multi-agent coordination.

A practical blueprint for retailers to scale AI with a unified governance-driven control plane that coordinates data, models, costs, and access across stores, HQ, and digital channels.

Databricks Document Intelligence unveils Precision Mode, blending custom-trained extraction models with an agentic harness to deliver frontier accuracy on long, complex documents and schemas - outperforming chunk-and-merge baselines across ~9,000 benchmarks via the ai_extract API.

OpenAI's grants to 14 independent projects illustrate a policy-driven approach to the Intelligence Age, exploring how AI can broaden economic opportunity and bolster societal resilience through testing, debate, and democratic governance.

OpenAI partners on the PORTS-Pike data center project in Pike County, Ohio, delivering thousands of jobs, substantial community investment, water-efficient cooling, Codex credits for Ohio students, and a blueprint for AI infrastructure.

An AI-enabled defender-focused playbook distilled from the OpenAI-Hugging Face incident, outlining four pillars - secure coding with Codex, continuous infrastructure defense, frontier intelligence to map attack paths, and scalable fundamentals - and a pragmatic set of immediate actions to turbocharge security for organizations.

Examines OpenAI's funding of 14 independent projects to test policy ideas that broaden AI-enabled opportunity and societal resilience across economies, governance frameworks, and safety in the Intelligence Age.

OpenAI joins the PORTS-Pike data center project to advance AI infrastructure with water-efficient cooling, large-scale job creation, and community investment in Southern Ohio alongside NVIDIA, SB Energy, and the DOE.
