Contributors announced version 1.0 of llm-d, an open-source project for deploying and scaling large language model inference across modern infrastructure. IBM says the project is governed by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation and was founded by Red Hat, IBM, Google Cloud, CoreWeave and NVIDIA.
PlantBaby announced Kiki Milk Protein, a USDA Organic product line made with sacha inchi, a seed native to the Amazon region. The launch extends the company’s plant-based beverage brand into a protein-focused product.
Maersk said its container ship Maersk Chattogram is scheduled for a planned drydocking and special survey at L&T Shipbuilding’s Kattupalli yard near Chennai.
Micron announced strategic funding to help Indium Corporation expand refining and manufacturing in Rome, New York, including a restart of domestic critical-minerals processing for advanced semiconductor manufacturing.
NTT, NTT Innovative Devices, Japan Semiconductor, Furukawa Electric and Shinko Electric said a proposal led by NTT Innovative Devices was selected for a Japanese NEDO advanced-semiconductor programme. The project will develop manufacturing, testing and packaging methods for optical chiplets used to connect processors with light.
Japan’s NEDO selected Preferred Networks and Tenstorrent for a joint xPU design project incorporating photonics-electronics integration. Their five-year research programme targets processor systems for training and inference across scientific, physical and agentic AI workloads.
The sponsored-research agreement funds a one-year fabrication and testing programme for straintronic magnetic tunnel junction devices, which the parties say could inform energy-efficient AI hardware.
Socionext says it is extending agentic AI from front-end design tasks into physical design for a large-scale 3nm system-on-chip, using Cadence InnoStack AI Super Agent.

Measurement and privacy details
Google Analytics measurement starts only if you allow it. After consent, automatic measurement may cover scrolls, outbound link clicks, downloads, video engagement, site searches and basic form interactions; search terms may be detected from URL parameters. This site’s own code does not send form field values; email redaction in automatic measurement is best-effort, not guaranteed. Our manual page-view event uses a cleaned URL. You can change your choice later. Visits that begin with consent may also send numeric LCP, INP and CLS performance measurements after Analytics loads. A first or later grant starts this on the next page load; withdrawing consent stops these performance reports for this page. The preference cookie lasts six months; advertising measurement and personalization stay off.
