… More tokens on less efficient hardware The reality is, even as some token costs are falling, the explosion in the number of agentic AI requires cannot be offset by hardware efficiency gains that are many years away from reaching effective deployment, if they ever get to the scale needed to catch up… …
… Brussee strongly suggests the use of AI agents in developing the engine, but whether that means there will be AI tools built into The Immense Engine remains to be seen.

… On the hardware side, Arm claims that its AGI processor is the world's most efficient agentic CPU. …
… " The Venice family spans a broad set of CPUs optimized for throughput, performance per watt, and performance per dollar, including Verona, our first EPYC CPU purpose-built for AI infrastructure," Su said. …
… Linux After months of fierce debate, Linus Torvalds and the Linux kernel maintainers have laid down the law on AI-generated code. Linux The Linux 7.0 kernel has merged support for three new keycodes intended for a coming wave of laptops with dedicated AI agent keys. …
… Furthermore, AMD raised its long-term outlook for the server CPU market, expecting it to reach $120 billion by 2030 due to increased demand from AI and agentic AI workloads. At the same time, the company admitted that sales of its AI accelerators were down sequentially. …
… Per a Reuters report, ByteDance's new chip is inspired by Groq's "language processing units," a fancy term for a chip optimized for inference tasks — running AI models instead of training them. The move comes in a context where inference-heavy agentic AI is quickly becoming the new normal. …
… With AI agents, that token usage is certainly possible. Just this month, we saw OpenClaw developer Peter Steinberger rack up $1.3 million in OpenAI API usage in just 30 days across a three-person team working on the agentic AI framework. …
… "As AI and agentic workloads scale rapidly, customers need platforms that can move from innovation to production faster," said Dr. Lisa Su, chair and CEO of AMD, in the company's press release. …
… As AI makes certain parts of the process dramatically cheaper and faster, Nikolić expects engineers to use that freed-up capacity to explore territory they wouldn't otherwise have dared tackle, including the design of the AI chips driving the whole cycle in the first place. …
