Power first: AI data center siting now starts at the substation

Power first: AI data center siting now starts at the substation

Sandeep Prakash, a senior program manager in data center infrastructure planning, said on Amphenol Broadband Solutions’ Wavelengths podcast that new data center site decisions now start with the substation and utility interconnection, with fiber and latency planned alongside. RAND estimates AI data centers could need 68 gigawatts of power by 2027 and cites four to seven year grid queues in Virginia. The IEA reports AI-focused data center electricity consumption surged 50% in 2025.

  • 01AI-focused data center electricity use rose 50% in 2025 while energy per AI task fell by an order of magnitude a year, the IEA says, and both curves belong in the same capacity plan.

Ping’s Gouard: cryptographic ID checks can narrow false positives

Ping’s Gouard: cryptographic ID checks can narrow false positives

A bank that re-verified every visitor’s documents on each branch visit stopped fraud but pushed failure handling onto tellers; Ping is working with the bank to enroll customers’ faces so a tablet glance can replace repeat proofing.

  • 01A bank that re-verified every visitor's document on every branch visit stopped fraud but pushed failure handling onto tellers; the fix now underway is enrolling a face once and using a tablet glance after that.
  • 02Identity proofing should happen once, with an email or facial biometric bound to that event carrying trust through the account lifecycle until trust is dissolved.

Muse's Rise Signals the Next Phase of the AI Agent Economy, and Enterprises Should Be Paying Attention

Muse's Rise Signals the Next Phase of the AI Agent Economy, and Enterprises Should Be Paying Attention

Meta's Muse AI agent reached 2.5 million downloads within two weeks, suggesting agentic AI is moving from a developer curiosity toward mainstream consumer behavior. For B2B leaders, Muse’s early trajectory highlights emerging challenges around platform interoperability, data governance, and delegated authority as agent technology evolves.

  • 01Muse crossed 2.5 million downloads by its second week, outpacing the early trajectories of ChatGPT, Claude, and Grok over the same post-launch window.
  • 02Platform interoperability is the next battleground: Amazon has already restricted Muse's access citing terms of service, previewing the access and permissions friction enterprises will face when integrating agents.
  • 03Data governance and guardrails remain unsolved: Meta says sanitized interaction data trains its models with an opt-out, a more restricted Confidential VM architecture is planned for later in 2026, and early testing identified at least one case where the agent surfaced content beyond what a user's request called for.
