Solar panels and batteries are becoming increasingly common across commercial properties, but the next challenge is deciding how those assets should operate in real time. Sungrow, UNSW Sydney and JT Solar Technology, trading as Aussie Hybrid Solar, are addressing that problem with an AI-enabled community energy project at The Gibraltar Bowral in Australia’s Southern Highlands….
As artificial intelligence reshapes enterprise technology environments, the security risks surrounding those systems are growing just as quickly. Virtual IT Group (VITG) is responding with two new managed offerings for organisations across Australia and New Zealand: Modern Managed Services (MMS) and Managed Detection & Response (MDR). The services combine security, governance, managed IT and 24/7…
Generative AI is moving deeper into legal discovery, but the industry’s requirements are different from those of ordinary enterprise search. Answers must be grounded in source evidence, reviewers need to understand where conclusions came from, and every significant interaction may need to withstand scrutiny later. Nuix is addressing that challenge with the general availability of…
Insilico Medicine is taking its generative AI drug-discovery strategy into a new phase of testing: not just whether an AI-designed drug can treat disease, but whether it can also shift molecular markers associated with biological aging. A study published in Nature Biotechnology reports that rentosertib, an investigational idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) drug whose target and…
Battery-powered security cameras have traditionally traded some capability for installation flexibility. At IFA 2026, EZVIZ is challenging that assumption with a new generation of AI-enabled cameras designed to combine multi-lens coverage, 24/7 recording, wireless connectivity and solar charging. The company’s latest launches point to a broader shift in smart-home security: cameras are becoming more autonomous,…
Smart lighting has traditionally been about remote controls, schedules and preset scenes. Govee is pushing the category toward something more autonomous. At IFA 2026, the company is showcasing AI-powered lighting that can interpret text, voice and image inputs, respond to user context and coordinate increasingly complex lighting environments, including a new AI-powered ceiling light, COB…
Home energy systems are becoming increasingly difficult to manage as solar panels, batteries, EVs, heat pumps, dynamic electricity tariffs and household appliances operate as one interconnected system. At IFA 2026, Zendure is introducing Agentic HEMS, an AI-driven home energy management architecture designed to move beyond fixed schedules by forecasting conditions, deciding how energy should be…
As AI coding tools accelerate software development, investors face a new problem during technology acquisitions: understanding exactly what they are buying is becoming harder. Plan A Technologies has acquired a stealth AI assessment tool to strengthen its technical M&A due diligence practice, using automated analysis to examine large, fragmented technology environments and surface risks that…
AI coding agents are making software development dramatically faster, but infrastructure teams still have to review changes through tickets, approvals and manual workflows. empirik.ai is betting that this mismatch is becoming a reliability problem. The company has emerged from stealth with $21 million in funding and an AI agent designed to understand infrastructure-change intent, calculate…
