Dell Technologies has raised its annual forecasts due to booming AI server demand, now projecting revenue of $105-109 billion for the fiscal year. AI server sales are expected to reach $20 billion this year, with second-quarter infrastructure revenue up 44%. Despite strong AI performance, storage sales declined 3%. The company shipped $10 billion in AI solutions in the first half of its fiscal year, already exceeding last year's total.

Elon Musk's xAI has launched Grok Code Fast 1, an AI model for agentic coding workflows that processes 92 tokens per second and costs $0.20 per million input tokens—up to 95% cheaper than competitors. With 70.8% accuracy on the SWE-Bench benchmark, it features real-time collaboration with GitHub Copilot, X platform integration, and multi-language support. This autonomous AI agent can write, refactor, and maintain code independently, optimizing development and improving productivity. Currently available as a free public preview, Grok Code Fast 1 positions itself as a productivity leader against competitors like ChatGPT, Codex, and Tabnine through its speed, ecosystem access, and affordability.

Volkswagen has extended its partnership with Amazon Web Services for five years, enhancing AI integration in its Industrial Cloud digital production platform. Currently used in 43 production sites, this technology aims to optimize car assembly and factory operations. The AI-driven approach is expected to generate tens of millions of euros in savings while supporting Volkswagen's goal of becoming a technology leader in the automotive industry.

Tesla and Waymo are pursuing vastly different approaches to robotaxi development. Waymo relies on comprehensive sensor arrays (lidar, radar, cameras) while Tesla uses only cameras with computer vision. Waymo already operates commercial services in multiple cities with a strong safety record, while Tesla began public testing in 2025 with safety drivers present. Waymo prioritizes perfecting autonomous driving before expansion, while Tesla aims to leverage its vehicle network for rapid scaling through software updates. The industry's future may be determined by which approach—Waymo's sensor-rich, safety-first model or Tesla's data-driven computer vision—proves more effective and scalable.
