ARM Limited develops its own processor

 ARM Limited is the developer of the widely used ARM (Advanced RISC Machine) processor architecture. Although ARM-based processors are among the most commonly used chip designs in the world today, the company itself does not manufacture chips but instead generates revenue through licensing its designs.

With the rise of artificial intelligence, the demand for chips has surged, so it is perhaps not surprising that the company has decided to expand into manufacturing alongside design. Its first project is an AI chip that it aims to bring to market, with a prototype expected this spring and, if all goes well, mass production planned for the autumn.

Another initiative, which has not yet been officially confirmed, is the production of processors for servers, with Meta potentially being the primary customer.

The majority owner of ARM Limited is Masayoshi Son, who is also the founder of SoftBank Group. Not only is SoftBank involved in the U.S. Stargate project, but Son himself will serve as the chairman of the project. Chip manufacturing tailored to meet the needs of artificial intelligence could thus be part of a larger strategy. One expected outcome is that ARM will challenge Intel and AMD in a new market segment. Another is that server power consumption will decrease if ARM continues to develop energy-efficient CPUs. However, this reduction in power consumption will not lead to lower electricity bills but rather to a surge in computing capacity.

Artificial Intelligence in Network Management and Maintenance
Ericsson recently presented its strategic plans for 2025 at the Mobile World Congress 2025 (MWC25). These ideas are particularly intriguing as they demonstrate how artificial intelligence is being integrated into industrial processes that impact our daily lives—yet remain unnoticed as long as they function smoothly.
GTC 2025: NVIDIA's Blackwell-Based Servers and DGX Station
The GTC (GPU Technology Conference), held annually since 2009, will be hosted by NVIDIA this year from March 17 to 21. The conference is designed to showcase the latest developments and to promote collaboration and further innovation across different industries. It is attended mainly by developers, researchers, and technology leaders. NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang has been saying for some time that companies will become token factories in the future—meaning that every workflow will be supported by artificial intelligence. Currently, large servers play a major role in this process, but AI integration will increasingly extend to personal computers. In the future, computers and laptops will have hardware capable of running even large language models in the background. This is necessary because programmers, engineers, and almost everyone will work with AI assistance.
Humanoid robots from Meta
Meta is opening a new chapter in artificial intelligence and robotics by creating a new group within its Reality Labs division to develop AI-based humanoid robots.
Mapping the speech centre of the brain brings us closer to AMI
Mapping the function of the brain's speech center is a crucial area of neuroscience. One key reason is that millions of people each year suffer from brain lesions that impair their ability to communicate. However, progress in mapping the speech center has been slow in recent years because recording brain waves is complicated by the fact that mouth movements distort the signals. The most effective method for filtering out this noise so far has been the surgical implantation of electrodes in the brain. However, this approach is highly invasive, making the tests extremely limited and significantly increasing costs.
