Data Centers Dissected — TBDA from The Austin Forum (Jimmy Pike, TASK Consultancy & Michael Schulte, AMD)
Field report from The Austin Forum's "Data Centers Dissected" panel at ACC Rio Grande, moderated by Dr. Jay Boisseau. The brief right-sizes the AI data-center panic: the national footprint is modest (~1.5% of global electricity today, rising toward ~3% by 2030) while the real strain lands locally on specific watersheds and grids. Covers exploding rack density (toward ~1 MW per rack by 2030), why cooling and the grid — not the chip — are the binding constraints, full-stack efficiency gains of 100–1000x, and the upside case of exascale science (AlphaFold, fusion, and carbon-negative supercomputing). The closing thesis: the goal is not less computing, it is more useful computing.
Your Company's AI, Built For You — Webinar with Robert Toth, PhD (Theta Tech AI)
Webinar recap and briefing from SkyTerra's June session with Robert Toth, PhD of Theta Tech AI. Covers the shift from scattered shadow AI to secure, shared, company-wide infrastructure that learns from every interaction, plus RAG and knowledge graphs, the token economy, MCP as the connective standard (past 10,000 public servers and 97M monthly downloads), and company-specific workflows that keep a human in the loop.
R-Zinc 4.0: Collaborate and Accelerate — Hosted by EverZinc
Industry intelligence brief from R-Zinc 4.0 in Nashville, hosted by EverZinc. Coverage includes the working tour of EverZinc's zinc oxide plant in Tennessee, the Zinc Battery Use Cases and Commercialization panel featuring Urban Electric Power, Octet Scientific, Camelot Energy Group, and ZincFive, and a keynote from Dr. Josef Daniel Ivad (International Zinc Association / Zinc Battery Initiative) on scaling zinc battery manufacturing by 100x.
MRS Spring 2026 MT Symposia — The AI-for-Materials Track
Industry intelligence brief from the Materials Theory symposia at the 2026 MRS Spring Meeting in Honolulu. Foundation Machine Learning Interatomic Potentials crossed from research demo to deployable infrastructure, agentic self-driving labs moved into production, and synthesizability emerged as the new rate-limiting step. Features SES AI's Molecular Universe spotlight (CATL, BYD, national labs), NVIDIA's Alchemy compute stack, Meta FAIR's unified models, and the open frontier in battery interphase modeling.
