Not long ago, I wrote about why Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) is such a pivotal architecture in modern AI workflows, particularly when compared to fine-tuning and training from scratch. The core argument was simple: RAG enables models to stay up-to-date, grounded, and efficient without massive retraining costs. It was (and still is) a pragmatic solution to […]

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming industries, but deploying AI workloads efficiently remains a challenge. Many organisations look to virtualisation to maximise resource utilisation, improve security, and streamline AI infrastructure management. This blog explores how to deploy AI workloads in virtualised environments using VMware Virtualised vSphere for AI (VVF), Private AI on VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF), […]

The evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) has placed increasing demands on hardware, requiring processors that deliver high efficiency, scalability, and performance. Intel’s Xeon 6 marks a substantial leap in AI capabilities, particularly in its Advanced Matrix Extensions (AMX), which have seen major improvements over Xeon 4 and Xeon 5. These enhancements make Xeon 6 a […]

The AI hardware market is rapidly evolving, driven by the increasing complexity of AI workloads. DeepSeek, a new large-scale AI model from China, has entered the scene, but its impact on the broader AI landscape remains an open question. Is it simply a competitor to OpenAI’s ChatGPT, or does it have wider implications for inferencing, […]
