Is the DRAM price spike in Sept 2025 and cooldown in November a sign of reduced AI demand ?
·442 words·3 mins
After a sharp surge in RAM prices through September 2025, the market is showing early signs of correction. Does this show a part of reduced demand for AI GPUs or this is a smaller correction?
Algorithms changing world to fit metrics
·467 words·3 mins
Algorithms are no longer just reacting to data, they are changing the world so that the data better fits them. So algorithms are not neutral at scale, they shape the world. In the process, they begin to cooperate, shape markets, and alter human behavior in ways that look a lot like quiet collusion.
Agentic AIs new attack surfaces, Data poisoning, tool-poisoning, and malicious MCP servers
·962 words·5 mins
Data poisoning is the deliberate injection of adversarial content into a model’s training data or a tool’s metadata so the LLM learns or obeys malicious instructions. In agentic systems that load third-party tools from MCP (model-connected platform) servers, poisoned tool descriptions or docstrings can trick an LLM into leaking secrets, executing harmful actions, or behaving as a covert proxy for attackers.

NVIDIA DGX Spark: underwhelming and late to the Party
·890 words·5 mins
NVIDIA’s DGX Spark arrives late as an AI inference system whose performance is lagging behind. With low speed unified VRAM, immature software optimizations, and heavy competition from Apple, AMD, and Intel, the Spark exposes how little remains of NVIDIA’s CUDA moat.
