Oracle declares force majeure on the Stargate Project Jupiter data center in New Mexico

Oracle sent a force majeure notice to the developer of Project Jupiter (the Stargate data center in New Mexico) over pipeline and permitting delays. It allows Oracle to defer payments if the center does not come online by 2028.

Business impact

Delays in energy and regulatory approvals for the Jupiter project increase the risk that the 2028 launch target for one of Stargate's flagship data centers will slip, which is relevant for companies planning long-term dependency on compute capacity from this project or from OpenAI.

Researchers breached OpenAI using a security tool from Anthropic

Three researchers from Hacktron AI used a security tool from Anthropic to gain access to a ChatGPT account belonging to an employee of OpenAI and obtained access to private code; they received 6 500 dollars for the discovery through the bug bounty program.

Business impact

The incident shows that even a leading AI lab such as OpenAI can be breached quickly using a tool from a competing company, which is relevant to businesses assessing the security risk of storing sensitive data and code with AI service providers.

NVIDIA worth noting update New models Development

NVIDIA released the open-source model Nemotron 3.5 Lightning (30B) and NeMo Switchyard for agentic AI

On 11 August, NVIDIA released the open-source model Nemotron 3.5 Lightning (30 billion parameters) for agentic AI tasks such as code review or tool use, under the OpenMDW 1.1 license with training data, alongside NeMo Switchyard for routing between models.

New: The model has 30 billion parameters (specific size); Released under the Linux Foundation OpenMDW 1.1 license with weights and training recipes; Accompanying tool NeMo Switchyard for intelligent routing in agentic applications; Specific applications: code review, tool use, security monitoring, billing questions; Responds to the growing strength of Chinese open-source models (Alibaba Qwen, Moonshot)

Business impact

Companies that need to run agentic AI locally because of token costs or data sovereignty requirements get a fully open model with weights, code, training recipes and data under the OpenMDW 1.1 license, plus NeMo Switchyard for routing requests across their own mix of models.

Microsoft worth noting Security Risks and compliance

The Microsoft company has human contractors review user prompts and images in Copilot, including sexual and inappropriate content

According to the server 404 Media, contractors hired by the Microsoft company review prompts and images that users upload to Copilot for image editing, including sexually explicit and pedophilic content. The contractors are not tasked with censoring the content, but with evaluating the quality of the output.

Business impact

Companies using Copilot or similar tools with image uploads face the risk that sensitive data about employees or customers passes through external contractors without a clear mechanism for reporting illegal content, which increases compliance and reputational risk across the supply chain.

Tencent introduced Gander, a research model for simultaneous conversation and agent tasks

Tencent introduced Gander, a research model that holds conversations in real time while also handling background tasks using a separate “cerebellum” and a replaceable “brain”. In tests, it had the best response timing but lower task accuracy.

Business impact

Companies developing voice assistants and conversational agents have further evidence that separating a fast conversational layer from a slower reasoning model reduces inappropriate interruptions, but according to the published tests, this currently comes at the expense of task completion accuracy.

worth noting update Hardware Strategy

Apple is preparing an enterprise server with M8 Ultra chips for AI inference, potentially in cooperation with Nvidia, with a launch in 2029 at the earliest

According to The Information, Apple is developing an enterprise server for AI inference with two or four M8 Ultra chips, potentially with NVLink Fusion technology from Nvidia. The project was backed by current CEO John Ternus, and a launch is not planned before 2029.

New: The server exists in two versions: with 2 or 4 M8 Ultra processors; Focused on AI inference (running trained models, not training them); John Ternus (the new CEO of Apple) backed the project about a year ago while leading the hardware division; OpenAI and Anthropic are already buying Mac Mini and Mac Studio for AI workloads, signaling demand; The project may have recently accelerated

Business impact

Companies planning their AI infrastructure for the long term can monitor whether Apple actually enters the enterprise AI server segment – from 2029, this could provide an alternative to current GPU servers from Nvidia and AMD, but the project could still be canceled.
