Grinds360 has announced the launch of its platform focused on supporting students in the Junior Cycle, offering support that gives their members unrestricted access covering 11 subjects. This is the first of its kind solution, which follows a year of success for the business having entered the Senior Cycle market in September 2024. This expansion signals the growing demand for digital and hybrid solutions to learning, with students across Ireland now having access to affordable, high quality grinds. Founded by Ronan Murdock and Brendan Kavanagh, Grinds360 was created out of a shared commitment to both accessibility and excellence in education. The team of dedicated teachers working at Grinds360 recognised a growing gap in Ireland's traditional grinds industry, with its solution posed to democratise access to grinds across the country. With the combination of advanced technology, personalised support, flexibility and teacher quality already working to lessen the pressure on senior cycle students, Grinds360 has established itself as the go-to, digital alternative to traditional grind schools. This approach is now being offered to students preparing for their Junior Cycle exams, combining some of Ireland's leading teachers with cutting-edge technology and an innovative hybrid model. Grinds360 is offering Junior Cycle students and parents two flexible learning plans: a One Year Plan for €899 or a Two Year Plan for students starting in 2nd Year for €1,399. This includes weekly live grinds (available currently for Maths, English, Irish, and Science), on-demand lessons and online masterclasses in 7 other subjects, textbooks, digital notes, a study skills programme, and access to the online Summer Irish Programme, ensuring they have the tools and support needed to succeed. "We're bringing the same successful model from Leaving Cert to Junior Cycle, one membership provides unlimited access to all 11 subjects and every revision course, no restrictions. Plus, members get live weekly grinds in English, Irish, Maths, and Science. Tapping into how young people normally interact with and retain information like this makes learning more intuitive, fun and engaging. "This is especially important for Junior Cycle students entering secondary school, who are often gaining access to digital tools in the classroom for the first time. Something as simple as having access to a quick lesson on the daily commute to school is setting a new benchmark for how education is being delivered in Ireland," said CEO and Co-Founder of Grinds 360, Ronan Murdock, speaking on this news. One year on from launch, Grinds360 has achieved explosive growth with over 3,000 paying members and 18,000 app users. With 65% of signups coming from outside of Dublin to date, the edtech company now wants to give junior cycle students the same access. Brendan Kavanagh, Chairman and Co-Founder, added: "We've already seen our approach enhance Leaving Certificate preparation in Ireland, now we're doing the same for students ahead of the Junior Cycle exams. The earlier young people receive tailored support, unique to their needs and ways of learning, the better. But no student should feel forced to move to a grind school to access this support. This breaks the bond with their school, teachers, and classmates. Grinds360 offers young people a better solution and a choice, and it's a privilege to be a part of driving this change forward." Students can now sign up for Grinds360 on their website, with grinds in both the Leaving and Junior Cycle. Subjects available at Junior Cycle level include English, Irish, Maths, Science, Geography, History, Business Studies, Home Economics, Spanish, German and French. See more stories here.

AIB, Bank of Ireland, and PTSB have today announced plans to launch Zippay, a new person-to-person mobile payment service, in early 2026. Zippay will be available to more than 5 million eligible customers of the three retail banks initially. It will be an in-app service offered through the banks' existing mobile banking apps and delivered by leading European PayTech Nexi. Customers will be able to send, request, and split payments instantaneously with Zippay by using the mobile number of their contacts who are also using the service. Speaking on today's announcement, Brian Hayes, Chief Executive BPFI, stated: "We are delighted to join AIB, Bank of Ireland and PTSB in announcing the introduction of Zippay to the Irish market next year. Developed in response to customer feedback and demand, this will provide a quick and easy way to send and receive money or split bills with friends, family and contacts who are also Zippay users. It will be delivered through customers' existing mobile banking apps and therefore comes with all the same high levels of security, protection, and digital safety and avoids the need for topping up a digital wallet or downloading a separate app." Describing how the app will work, Mr Hayes continued: "Eligible customers will automatically be enrolled to Zippay, which will appear in their personal banking app once the service is launched next year. It will use mobile numbers saved in the customer's contact list to identify who else uses Zippay. There will be no need to set up a new payee or know their IBAN, BIC or account numbers; the money will transfer between accounts seamlessly. The service will allow customers to send up to €1,000 per day as well as request up to €500 per transaction. It will be simple, speedy and secure." Nexi, a European PayTech company and one of the world's leading payment technology providers, will deliver the Zippay service in Ireland. Nexi already has a strong track record in the Irish financial services sector, having successfully partnered with domestic institutions to offer a range of reliable digital payment solutions. Also speaking on today's announcement, Renato Martini, Digital Banking Solutions Director of Nexi Group, said: "Built on an API-based architecture, Nexi has designed Zippay for scalability and future expansion with the goal of making the solution as widely available as possible to customers across Ireland. After the initial launch, Zippay will be offered on a non-discriminatory basis to all financial institutions that provide IBAN account services and a mobile app to Irish consumers and Nexi will manage the integration of eligible financial institutions that wish to join the service. Delivering this service in Ireland is an important recognition of Nexi's experience in developing and launching innovative Account-to-Account solutions, thanks to its know-how, skills, and people. We are proud to be contributing to the further acceleration of digital payment solutions in Europe." Over the coming weeks, all eligible customers of AIB, Bank of Ireland and PTSB will receive information on the new service ahead of the rollout next year, including details on how to opt out if they so choose. A dedicated website www.Zippay.ie has also been launched today with detailed information on the service and how it will work. Additionally, each bank has launched their own dedicated online Zippay information page on which customers can find further details specific to their bank: AIB - www.aib.ie/Zippay Bank of Ireland - www.bankofireland.com/Zippay PTSB - www.ptsb.ie/Zippay More about Irish Tech News Irish Tech News are Ireland's No. 1 Online Tech Publication and often Ireland's No.1 Tech Podcast too.

In this week'sThe New Stack Agents, Zach Lloyd, founder and CEO of Warp, discussed the launch of Warp Code, the latest evolution of the Warp terminal into a full agentic development environment. Originally launched in 2022 to modernize the terminal, Warp now integrates powerful AI agents to help developers write, debug, and ship code. Key new features include a built-in file editor, project-structuring tools, agent-driven code review, and WARP.md files that guide agent behavior. Recognizing developers' hesitation to trust AI-generated code, Warp emphasizes transparency and control, enabling users to inspect and steer the agent's work in real time through "persistent input" and task list updates. While Warp supports terminal workflows, Lloyd says it's now better viewed as an AI coding platform. Interestingly, the launch announcement was delivered from horseback in a Western-themed ad, reflecting Warp's desire to stand out in a crowded field of conventional tech product rollouts. The quirky “Code on Warp” (C.O.W.) branding captured attention and embodied their unique approach.Learn more from The New Stack about the latest in AI and Warp:Warp Goes Agentic: A Developer Walk-Through of Warp 2.0Developer Review of Warp for Windows, an AI Terminal AppHow AI Can Help You Learn the Art of ProgrammingJoin our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.
UGREEN have launched a new range of Qi2 products, which can charge your devices wirelessly at 25 watts. We've been taking a look at the 10000mAh MagFlow Magnetic Power Bank and the MagFlow 2-in-1 Wireless Charger over the last few weeks, and both devices launch officially today. We have been reviewing UREEN products for several years now. They have consistently been really well-made and great value, and this new product range is no different. In fact, I would suggest they have taken even another step up in quality and feel like very mature products with a slick and modern design. UGREEN MagFlow Magnetic Power Bank The MagFlow Magnetic Power Bank enables fast, 25 watt wireless charging for compatible devices such as the iPhone 16 range. It is also backwards compatible with devices that charge at a max of 15 watts. The power bank has MagSafe magnets built in, so it is ready-made for attaching to iPhones, but you can place any device on top of it and it will charge them without issue. The MagFlow Magnetic Power Bank comes with what looks like a wrist strap, but it is actually an incredibly handy USB-C cable, which can be used to charge the battery and also charge other devices. This simple addition makes this power bank so much more versatile, as you don't need to carry an extra cable with you, and means it is not just limited to wireless charging. I have been using it to keep my iPhone topped up for the last couple of weeks, and it has worked flawlessly. Once you attach the power bank, it picks up that it is connected to the phone instantly, and charging begins. You can tilt your phone into landscape and use the power bank as a stand for when you are watching videos, too, something I find really useful when you are flying. The MagFlow Magnetic Power Bank charges your phone quickly, but it also charges itself quickly. On top of this, it can charge your device while being charged itself at the same time. Day to day, I have plugged the power bank into a fast charger for about an hou,r and this has been enough to keep my iPhone fully topped up each day when I am on the move. There is a small LCD on the side of the device which indicates the charge levels and if it is charging a device or being charged itself. Overall, the MagFlow Magnetic Power Bank has been an excellent device to use so far, and it is highly recommended for anyone who uses an iPhone. UGREEN MagFlow 2-in-1 Wireless Charger The MagFlow 2-in-1 Wireless Charger is a neat, portable device which has many use cases. The device folds down to a small cube size when not in use or when you are travelling and unfolds out to present a magnetic charging pad for your smartphone, along with a charging pad for AirPods or similar. Like the power bank, it is also capable of 25 watt wireless charging to charge your devices and can be turned into a 3-in-1 charger if you make use of the USB-C port to plug in a smartwatch charger, etc. Another very versatile product from UGREEN. With its small size, the MagFlow 2-in-1 Wireless Charger is suitable for use in many situations. It could be used on your desk, on a bedside locker or even on the go. It connects to a power source via a USB-C port on the back of the device, providing a compact and neat place to keep your devices charged. Conclusion Both these devices from UGREEN are really well-made and have had a lot of thought put into their design and functionality. They both work exactly as you would expect and provide a fast wireless charging solution for your devices at home, in the office and on the go. Both devices can be purchased directly from the UGREEN website and are also available on Amazon from today.

In a world of scarce talent and shifting work, one conference dares to reimagine how we cast our teams. On Friday, 5 September 2025, Starcircle, the hiring platform that helps companies solve hiring challenges with AI and on-demand expertise, premieres Supernova 2025: Hiring at the Movies at The Cameo Cinema, The Montenotte Hotel, Cork. The latest SOLAS survey revealed 47% of hard-to-fill roles were rated "very" or "too" difficult, and 64% required salary increases to seal the deal. Inspired by these real events, Supernova is flipping the script, taking hiring teams from today's recruiting horror story to a rom-com where they fall back in love with talent acquisition. Under the theme "Hiring at the Movies," Supernova 2025 connects the craft of film casting with the future of talent acquisition. Professionals from Eli Lilly, Workhuman, OpenText and many others, will gather to discuss what's next for hiring and the nature of work, along with real steps leaders can take now. The star-studded line-up includes two of Ireland's best-known casting directors, Maureen Hughes and Louise Kiely. They will unpack the craft of spotting potential, building chemistry, and making brave choices, all critical skills for any hiring team. They're joined by keynote speaker Kevin Wheeler, whose vision of a tech-powered future may sound stranger than fiction, but is quickly becoming a reality. The machines haven't taken over just yet though, as Larry Kelly explores the power of human imagination at work and why creativity is a decisive advantage in an AI-shaped future. "Supernova is where we zoom out to see what's coming and zoom in on what to do on Monday," said James Galvin, CEO at Starcircle. "Linking hiring to the world of film makes it simple; great outcomes start with a strong vision, a bold brief, and the imagination to see talent others miss." Galvin continues, "Supernova blends big-picture thinking with practical guidance. Since our first conference in 2022, we've brought together leading experts from around the world to share their playbooks and help organisations navigate the ever-changing landscape. This year promises to be our best event yet, and you won't find a talent event like this anywhere else in the world." Supernova is invite-only.

The Irish Management Institute (IMI) today announced the launch of the 2025 National Leadership Conference (NLC), taking place on Thursday, October 2nd at IMI's Sandyford campus, which will bring together Ireland's top business leaders to discuss the challenges and opportunities of leading organisations in an era of heightened volatility and disruption. This year's NLC will focus on helping leaders move from insight to impact, develop key capabilities to navigate uncertainty, and position their organisations for long-term success. Former Editor-in-chief of the Economist, Bill Emmott, is to address the 2025 Irish Management Institute (IMI) National Leadership Conference on the critical role of leadership in driving transformation in an era of heightened volatility and disruption. As the AI transformation accelerates, speakers will offer insights on how decision makers can successfully harness the power of the technology in their business; developing an organisational culture of innovation that embraces change; and cultivating and leading high-performance teams. Keynote speakers at the event include Dómhnal Slattery, former CEO of Avolon, and Enda O'Coineen, Group CEO of the Business Post Group. Other speakers at the conference include Jennifer Melia, CEO of Enterprise Ireland, Alice Mansergh, CEO at Tourism Ireland, Joe Heneghan, CEO at Revolut Europe, and Emma Redmond, General Counsel & Head of OpenAI Ireland. Commenting on the event launch, Shane O'Sullivan, CEO of the IMI, said: "Irish business leaders are navigating a highly complex environment, shaped by global volatility, a tightening domestic economy, and the accelerating pace of technological change. In this climate, it's all too easy to become consumed by immediate pressures and lose sight of the bigger picture. But long-term success depends on leaders keeping their focus on future growth, building the capabilities to adapt, and seizing opportunities even in uncertain times. "At IMI, we see that many leaders already have the insights - the real challenge lies in turning those insights into tangible impact. The National Leadership Conference is an important forum bringing together Ireland's leadership community that can help to forge the capabilities for current and future success. IMI research shows that while most leaders are aware of the key challenges facing their organisation, many are finding it difficult to identify and put in place the capabilities and strategies to overcome these obstacles and drive growth. "With an impressive line-up of national and international industry leaders, this year's conference will give Ireland's decision makers the tools to sharpen their capabilities, navigate uncertainty with confidence, and unlock future growth."

Speed Fibre Group, Ireland's leading telecoms infrastructure provider and the parent company of Enet and Magnet+, has announced the completion of its acquisition of BT Communications Ireland Limited (BTCIL), a business unit of BT and a leading provider of wholesale and enterprise connectivity solutions in Ireland. Integration of the two businesses begins today. The acquisition includes BTCIL's domestic network infrastructure, co-location facilities, wholesale and enterprise customer base, and the internal teams supporting them. These operations will now be integrated into Speed Fibre Group's two brands: Enet, serving wholesale customers, and Magnet+, serving enterprise businesses. By uniting two complementary businesses, Speed Fibre Group is creating one platform with greater scale, deeper reach, and enhanced capability delivering increased choice, better value, and more innovation to customers nationwide. This platform will support the data centre sector, next generation computing and AI requirements. Following the transaction, Speed Fibre Group's network now extends to nearly 10,000 km of fibre, connecting 94 towns and cities, and over 6,000 buildings including more than 2,500 in Dublin and key urban centres. This strengthened footprint positions Enet as Ireland's second-largest wholesale telecoms operator, enabling faster service delivery and providing real competition in the marketplace. The transaction also includes a long-term agreement for BT and Speed Fibre Group to source connectivity from each other, ensuring continuity of service for both organisations and their customers. Peter McCarthy, CEO of Speed Fibre Group, said: "We are delighted to announce that BT Communications Ireland Limited is now officially part of Speed Fibre Group, marking an exciting transformational milestone for our business. Uniting BTCIL and Speed Fibre Group combines market heritage, knowledge and scale, and also restores badly needed competition in the telecommunications space at a national level. By bringing together two leaders in the market, we will unlock greater scale, deeper building connectivity, and the ability to offer customers nationwide increased choice, better value, expanded reach and service excellence. "Importantly, this acquisition also aligns with our long-term plans to future proof Ireland's telecommunications landscape and support Ireland's growing digital economy. Our next-generation infrastructure is designed to support high volume and decentralised data flows essential for sectors like AI, pharma, and cloud services who require fast, reliable, and scalable connectivity." We will continue to focus on delivering robust and innovative connectivity solutions for businesses and communities across the country to meet Ireland's growing digital demands." Speed Fibre Group is owned by Cordiant Digital Infrastructure Limited, a specialist global infrastructure investor with a focus on digital infrastructure. Steven Marshall, Chairman of Cordiant Digital Infrastructure Limited, said: "This acquisition is a fantastic synergy between two of the top three market players in Ireland. It will make Speed Fibre Group more efficient, more competitive and in a better position to roll out even more innovative and better value solutions for customers. "With a proven management team in place, this is a transformational transaction for the Irish telecoms market. We're very much looking forward to working with Speed Fibre Group to continue this investment trajectory so we can support customers, grow the digital industries in Ireland, and, by extension, support GDP and economic growth in Ireland."

Enterprise AI is still in its infancy, with less than 1% of enterprise data currently used to fuel AI, according to Raj Verma, CEO of SingleStore. While consumer AI is slightly more advanced, most organizations are only beginning to understand the scale of infrastructure needed for true AI adoption. Verma predicts AI will evolve in three phases: first, the easy tasks will be automated; next, complex tasks will become easier; and finally, the seemingly impossible will become achievable—likely within three years. However, to reach that point, enterprises must align their data strategies with their AI ambitions. Many have rushed into AI fearing obsolescence, but without preparing their data infrastructure, they're at risk of failure. Current legacy systems are not designed for the massive concurrency demands of agentic AI, potentially leading to underperformance. Verma emphasizes the need to move beyond siloed or "swim lane" databases toward unified, high-performance data platforms tailored for the scale and complexity of the AI era.Learn more from The New Stack about the latest evolution in AI infrastructure: How To Use AI To Design Intelligent, Adaptable InfrastructureHow to Support Developers in Building AI Workloads Join our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.
At National College of Ireland, we are dedicated to highlighting alternative entry routes into third level education. Students who have just received their Leaving Certificate results should be aware that the Available Places facility opens August 28th, 2025 What is Available Places? Available Places is a facility that highlights places that are still available on selected programmes for CAO Applicants. This means you can choose to study at NCI in September! There are a number of courses currently available on the Available Places facility, which can be viewed on our Available Places Courses page. Students interested in exploring NCI's Available Places options can explore areas of marketing, childhood education and care, as well as business and data science. How does Available Places benefit students? The Leaving Certificate year can be an uncertain time for many students. When all the stress of the exams has ended, some students may feel that they did not put a course down on their CAO choices that they should have, or perhaps when they have a better gauge of how they feel they did, they may wish they had have put some more choices down. When the Available Places facility opens, students have another opportunity to expand their CAO options or apply for courses they did not put down in the first place. For students who maybe did not get the exact results they were hoping for, the Available Places facility displays course options that may suit them. Regardless of how things played out on results day, the Available Places facility gives all students another opportunity to expand their study options for September. We hope that knowing that there is always another way in gives all students some peace of mind as they make their decisions about what and where they will study this September. You can view the NCI courses in Marketing Practice, Data Science, Business, Computing, and Early Childhood Education and Care that are available on our Available Places Courses page. Why Choose National College of Ireland? At National College of Ireland, we want to not only ensure that you meet your education ambitions, but we also want to ensure that your learning experience supports you personally through the services and supports we offer. Our mission is 'to change lives through education.' Choose your programme, and we will work with you to help you succeed. Located at the heart of the ISFC, NCI is one of Ireland's most innovative third-level institutions, we work closely with industry and professional bodies to ensure courses remain closely aligned to industry needs, and we welcome international students from all over the globe.

Anthropic's Model Context Protocol (MCP) has become the standard for connecting AI agents to tools and data, but its security has lagged behind. In The New Stack Agents podcast, Tzvika Shneider, CEO of API security startup Pynt, discussed the growing risks MCP introduces. Shneider sees MCP as a natural evolution from traditional APIs to LLMs and now to AI agents. However, MCP adds complexity and vulnerability, especially as agents interact across multiple servers. Pynt's research found that 72% of MCP plugins expose high-risk operations, like code execution or accessing privileged APIs, often without proper approval or validation. The danger compounds when untrusted inputs from one agent influence another with elevated permissions. Unlike traditional APIs, MCP calls are made by non-deterministic agents, making it harder to enforce security guardrails. While MCP exploits remain rare for now, most companies lack mature security strategies for it. Shneider believes MCP merely highlights existing API vulnerabilities, and organizations are only beginning to address these risks.

Rahul Auradkar, executive VP and GM at Salesforce, grew up in India with a deep passion for cricket, where his love for the game sparked an early interest in data. This fascination with statistics laid the foundation for his current work leading Salesforce's Data Cloud and Einstein (Unified Data Services) team. Auradkar reflects on how structured data has evolved—from relational databases in enterprise applications to data warehouses, data lakes, and lakehouses. He explains how initial efforts focused on analyzing structured data, which later fed back into business processes. Eventually, businesses realized that the byproducts of data—what he calls "data exhaust"—were themselves valuable. The rise of "old AI," or predictive AI, shifted perceptions, showing that data exhaust could define the application itself. As varied systems emerged with distinct protocols and SQL variants, data silos formed, trapping valuable insights. Auradkar emphasizes that the ongoing challenge is unifying these silos to enable seamless, meaningful business interactions—something Salesforce aims to solve with its Data Cloud and agentic AI platform.Learn more from The New Stack about the evolution of structured data and agent AI: How Enterprises and Startups Can Master AI With Smarter Data Practices Enterprise AI Success Demands Real-Time Data PlatformsJoin our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.

I thought it would be a good idea to catch with an old friend and Co-Worker, who is still Coaching in College athletics today. I wanting to get the view of a Coach of a non-revenue sport or boots on the the ground as may say. I want to hear first hand if all hell is breaking loose or the changes or just an adjustment for those who work in the today's environment of college sports. I stated today by catching up with Coach Thorton and also, an explanation of his day to day duties as an assistant track at Kansas University. We moved on from there to discuss how the hot button topics of the day have changed him as coach having to deal with the Transfer portal, NIL and now revenue sharing. How recruiting change in these days of the Migration General of College sports. Conversation moved to a short discussion on the U.S.O.C. (U.S. Olympic Committee) what, or if any changes will be coming for our Olympic teams. I asked the question about the hot button topic of travel and if it's being blown out proportion. All I can say is, you may have heard his response come out someone else's mouth in the past. We chatted about some former Gopher Athletes and their new and success and also, about two former Gopher Coaches who touched our lives. We chatted about he is hearing directly from the athletes he deals with about college sports today. I mentioned what I'm hearing from past Gopher athletes. Their response may surprise you. Lastly, I asked him to play college sport God for one day and you can hear his answer to what he called a loaded question.

Advise, the AI-powered data analytics platform provider, has announced its expansion into the UK, fuelled by a recent investment of €1.8M. The company will hire 10 new team members in the UK to facilitate the expansion and bring its agentic AI platform, designed specifically for consumer-packaged goods (CPG) companies, to the market. The Advise platform, leveraging GenAI and Agentic AI capabilities, automates data from multiple sources at speed, producing personalised insights and recommendations for CPG companies to increase their market share and enable informed decision-making. Entry into the UK marks the beginning of Advise's international growth strategy. The UK's CPG market is worth approximately €24BN and the current addressable market for Advise's services in the UK stands at approximately €2BN. With the expectation that this will continue to grow as, increasingly, CPG companies embrace AI, Advise forecasts that its customer base will double in the next 12 months. The company also expects revenues to grow two-fold by the end of 2026 and annually thereafter. The company's expansion comes on the back of its sustained success in local markets. Advise currently counts Britvic, Pilgrim Food Masters, Tayto, Kerry and Dr Oetker as customers. Advise's first UK customer, G's Fresh, have been successfully using the platform for the past 12 months. With annual revenues in excess of £550 million, the family-owned company is one of the UK's leading fresh food producers, cultivating crops on 17,500 hectares of land and offering an extensive product range, from salad leaves to fresh vegetables, across the UK, Europe and North America. John Phelan, Co-Founder and Commercial Director, said: "Our expansion into the UK is just the first step in our international expansion strategy as we continue on a path of rapid and ambitious growth. The size of the UK market and its strong appetite for innovation will allow us to extend our market reach and grow our customer base. "Globally, brands are coming under increasing pressure to boost efficiency while reducing costs.

Landmark Technologies, an Irish provider of IT and cybersecurity services, has announced that it is investing €1.2 million in the launch of a Cyber Monitoring Centre for businesses in Ireland. This new dedicated centre will provide round-the-clock cyber threat monitoring and response for both small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) and larger organisations. Headquartered in Dublin 12, Landmark Technologies is creating five jobs over the next 12 months within the Cyber Monitoring Centre across cyber analyst and management roles. It is launching the facility amid growing demand from customers for advanced security solutions against a backdrop of evolving cyber threats, cybersecurity skills gaps, and talent shortages. Leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) tools and skilled security experts, the centre will monitor customers' IT environments and offer proactive protection against increasing threats such as AI-based cyberattacks, ransomware, and business email compromise. Landmark Technologies will also provide cyber awareness training for businesses and their employees. In addition, the investment covers a complete refresh of Landmark Technologies' Dublin headquarters. This new fit outincludes upgraded technology, equipment, and facilities to future proof the company's operations as it continues to grow. Ken Kelleher, Managing Director, Landmark Technologies said: "A growing number of businesses do not have the necessary in-house resources to keep pace with evolving cyber requirements. The coming months will continue to bring new and increasingly sophisticated cyber threats, and we expect to see a particular surge in AI-based attacks. Our new Cyber Monitoring Centre will provide fully integrated security services to ensure that customers have world-class protection and, in the event of an incident, our highly skilled technical team will respond 24/7 to ensure business can continue uninterrupted. We strive to deliver technology solutions that enable continued growth for our customers, with peace of mind that their operations are ultra-secure." See more stories here.

In the latest episode ofThe New Stack Agents, Naveen Rao, VP of AI at Databricks and a former neuroscientist, reflects on the evolution of AI, neural networks, and the energy constraints that define both biological and artificial intelligence. Rao, who once built circuit systems as a child and later studied the brain's 20-watt efficiency at Duke and Brown, argues that current AI development—relying on massive energy-intensive data centers—is unsustainable. He believes true intelligence should emerge from low-power, efficient systems, more aligned with biological computing.Rao warns that the industry is headed toward “model collapse,” where large language models (LLMs) begin training on AI-generated content instead of real-world data, leading to compounding inaccuracies and hallucinations. He stresses the importance of grounding AI in reality and moving beyond brute-force scaling. Rao sees intelligence not just as a function of computing power, but as a distributed, observational system—“life is a learning machine,” he says—hinting at a need to fundamentally rethink how we build AI.Learn more from The New Stack about the latest insights about the evolution of AI and neural networks: The 50-Year Story of the Rise, Fall, and Rebirth of Neural NetworksThe Evolution of the AI Stack: From Foundation to AgentsJoin our community of newsletter subscribers to stay on top of the news and at the top of your game.

I start today's episode with the announcement about Coach Prime, Deon Sanders. Then I discussed a back to the future buzz and I'm not talking about the movie. I read a list schools who opted in and out of the House settlement and why they did so. An executive order came from white house to save college sports. LOL! The order itself does nothing to aid colleges in their fight to run an effective department. A lot of time wasted on this and I share why that is.
