The Real Question Behind AI Data Centers Is Who Decides
The fight over AI data centers usually gets framed as a binary choice: build or don't build. That misses the harder question underneath. Who pays, and who decides? The costs are deeply intertwined, and the answers shape everything that follows. Our coverage of AWS clarifying its data center stance shows how trust itself is on the table. We need a more honest conversation about control before we pour billions into the ground.
Turn beauty inspiration into salon-ready plans with AI guides
Turning beauty inspiration into actionable salon plans has always been a fuzzy process, but Pinterest's new AI-powered Beauty Guides bring clarity.

Explore adaptive model routing to make multi-agent AI more efficient
Static model assignment is the default in multi-agent systems, but it is also the most expensive. Assigning every task to a frontier model, regardless of complexity, inflates inference costs without improving output quality. Adaptive model routing changes that by matching each task to the right LLM at the moment it arrives. It is a smarter, more accessible approach to cost control. For teams already wrestling with distributed systems, this practical strategy is worth exploring.
Tesla asks Texas to help fund a massive solar factory plan
Tesla is asking Texas to help fund a $10 billion solar factory, and the request is worth paying attention to.
