Emerald AI, Google and NVIDIA launch flexible AI data center alliance
- Emerald AI, Google and NVIDIA launched the AI Energy Management Alliance (AEMA) on September 16, 2026
- The coalition targets data centers that can dynamically adjust electricity use in response to grid conditions
- Flexibility can include workload shifting, storage discharge, paired generation, and contingency response
- AEMA will define ride-through, curtailment, emergency-response, performance, and data-sharing requirements
- The framework is technology-neutral and evaluates response speed, duration, predictability, and emergency behavior
- The alliance aims to enable faster interconnection while reducing grid stress and avoiding or delaying infrastructure upgrades
- Founding members will work with AI companies, data center operators, utilities, power producers, and regional grid operators

Strix, Open-Source AI Pentesting Tool
- Strix is an open-source AI penetration-testing tool for developers and security teams.
- Autonomous agents run applications dynamically to identify vulnerabilities and validate their impact.
- The toolkit covers reconnaissance, exploitation, and validation through working proof-of-concept exploits.
- Multi-agent orchestration supports collaborative AI pentesters and scalable security testing.
- The developer-focused CLI provides actionable findings, remediation guidance, patches, and compliance-ready reports.
- GitHub Actions and CI/CD integration enables scans on every pull request and can block insecure code before production.
