Comcast Technology Solutions is betting that the next phase of media AI will be less about standalone tools and more about embedding intelligence directly into the systems that process, distribute and monetize video. Ahead of IBC 2026, the company unveiled a suite of AI-powered workflow applications covering localization, vertical video, metadata, quality control, ad insertion…
AI-powered agent assist has largely focused on helping customer-service representatives listen, search and respond faster. Quiq is taking the concept a step further with Voice Assist, a new capability that brings its AI Assistants into live voice conversations and allows the system to not only recommend the next action but execute certain customer-facing tasks while…
Happiest Minds Technologies and ITC Infotech are combining their businesses in a deal that reflects a bigger shift underway in India’s technology-services industry: AI is making scale, specialized engineering capabilities and enterprise domain expertise increasingly important. The proposed merger is expected to create a technology-services company with more than 19,000 employees, 800-plus customers and operations…
AI infrastructure is no longer being built solely around massive cloud data centers. As inference moves closer to users, machines and physical environments, the next competitive frontier is becoming the connection between centralized compute, edge systems and intelligent machines. HUMAIN is taking a step in that direction by selecting Compal Electronics as a long-term strategic…
Enterprise AI development is moving beyond code assistants and into the business platforms where critical workflows actually run. UST is targeting that shift with UST Codon, a governed AI workspace that lets teams describe application and workflow changes in plain English across ServiceNow, SAP, Salesforce, Oracle Fusion and Workday, while keeping expert validation, auditing and…
For years, large banks have had an advantage in customer analytics because of their scale, technology budgets and access to sophisticated data infrastructure. A new Celent case study involving Union Savings Bank suggests that advantage may be narrowing. The Connecticut community bank is using predictive AI to identify customers at risk of leaving, recommend retention…
Enterprise AI in Asia Pacific and Japan is moving beyond copilots and isolated experiments into the operational systems that run government programs, insurance processes and large-scale business operations. Appian’s 2026 APJ Partner Awards, recognizing Accenture, Deloitte, Roboyo and Conexxia, offer a snapshot of that transition: AI is increasingly being embedded directly into business processes rather…
The next phase of AI may not happen on a screen. It will happen where machines have to sense physical forces, manipulate objects, adapt to changing conditions and execute tasks reliably. Agile Robots and its Franka Robotics subsidiary used two European events in August to demonstrate how that transition is taking shape—from AI-generated robot training…
The AI infrastructure race is entering a new stage. As hyperscalers diversify beyond Nvidia GPUs and deploy custom accelerators of their own, the critical technology challenge is shifting from individual chip performance to the interconnect fabric that allows heterogeneous processors to work together at scale. For years, the AI infrastructure conversation revolved around one question:…
