Fraud protection is a race against scale. For instance, Mastercard’s network processes roughly 160 billion transactions a year, and experiences surges of 70,000 transactions a second during peak periods (like the December holiday rush). Finding the fraudulent purchases among those — without chasing false alarms — is an incredible task, which is why fraudsters have been able to game the system. But now, sophisticated AI models can probe down to...

The "OpenClaw moment" represents the first time autonomous AI agents have successfully "escaped the lab" and moved into the hands of the general workforce.

Unlike previous chatbots, OpenClaw is designed with "hands"—the ability to execute shell... Read more â€ș

Presented by F5As enterprises pour billions into GPU infrastructure for AI workloads, many are discovering that their expensive compute resources sit idle far more than expected. The culprit isn't the hardware. It’s the often-invisible data delivery layer between storage and compute that's starving GPUs of the information they need."While people are focusing their attention, justifiably so, on GPUs, because they're very significant investments, those are rarely the limiting factor," says...
