Generative artificial intelligence on Network World

Network World’s Generative Artificial Intelligence hub curates the latest news, features, and resources at the intersection of artificial intelligence and enterprise networking. Highlights span optical networking reliability, chip manufacturing moves, edge hardware, and cloud-based network operations.

Network World’s Generative Artificial Intelligence topic page serves as a centralized feed for news, how‑tos, features, reviews, videos, and podcasts focused on how artificial intelligence is reshaping enterprise networking, data centers, and adjacent infrastructure. The hub organizes coverage into fresh daily highlights, longer article roundups, on‑demand multimedia, and research resources, giving IT leaders and practitioners a quick way to track fast‑moving developments across hardware, software, and operations.

The latest lineup spotlights several infrastructure shifts driven by artificial intelligence workloads and operations. One report says AMD could become Intel’s next foundry customer, underscoring Intel’s push to secure government and large‑scale tech deals. Cisco argues that artificial intelligence requires more reliable optical networking components as data center designs evolve to feed GPU‑intensive clusters. IBM introduced an artificial intelligence based cloud service aimed at managing complex networks, while Altera updated its Agilex FPGA portfolio to target artificial intelligence at the edge. Security also features in the feed with an advisory warning that a Red Hat OpenShift artificial intelligence weakness could enable full cluster compromise.

Beyond the day’s headlines, the Articles section expands the view across networking, security, and infrastructure modernization. Cato Networks extends its SASE platform to unmanaged and BYOD devices via a zero‑trust browser extension. Alkira advances network‑as‑a‑service for the agentic artificial intelligence era with a new MCP server for structured orchestration and an NIA copilot to guide admins through configuration and troubleshooting. Zayo’s DynamicLink brings core‑based, software‑defined delivery to NaaS. Broader resiliency and architecture questions are explored through reporting on a South Korea data center fire that puts lithium‑ion battery safety and disaster recovery under scrutiny. Case‑led and hardware coverage includes PGP Glass’s OT and IoT convergence efforts, HighPoint’s PCIe 5.0 switch enabling direct GPU‑storage links to speed artificial intelligence training and inference, and Equinix’s distributed artificial intelligence infrastructure targeting inferencing and multicloud connectivity.

The page rounds out coverage with upcoming events, topical whitepapers, and a library of podcasts and Linux video tips. Readers can browse resources on artificial intelligence in ITSM and software security, scan conference listings, or dive into audio series on transport, optics, and the internet’s future. In one place, the hub ties together news, analysis, and practical guidance for teams building, securing, and operating networks in an era increasingly defined by artificial intelligence workloads and automation.

What businesses need to know about the EU cyber resilience act

The EU cyber resilience act is turning product cybersecurity into a legal requirement for companies that sell digital products into the European Union. A key compliance milestone arrives in September 2026, well before the full regulation takes effect in 2027.

Claude Mythos and cyber insurance’s next inflection point

Claude Mythos is being treated by governments and regulators as a potential systemic cyber risk with implications for financial stability and insurance markets. Its emergence is intensifying pressure on insurers to clarify whether Artificial Intelligence-enabled cyber losses are covered, excluded, or require new stand-alone products.

OpenAI expands ChatGPT ads with self-serve manager

OpenAI is widening its ChatGPT ads pilot with a beta self-serve Ads Manager, new bidding options and broader measurement tools. The push signals a deeper move into advertising as the company expands the program into several international markets.

OpenAI launches Artificial Intelligence deployment consulting unit

OpenAI has created a new consulting and deployment business aimed at helping enterprises build and roll out Artificial Intelligence systems. The move mirrors a similar push by Anthropic and signals a broader effort by model providers to capture more of the enterprise services market.

SK Group warns DRAM shortages could curb memory use

SK Group chairman Chey Tae-won warned that customers may reduce memory consumption through infrastructure and software optimization if DRAM suppliers fail to raise output. Demand from Artificial Intelligence data centers is keeping the market tight as memory makers weigh expansion against the long timelines for new fabs.
