Google wants to cut the cloud bill for AI agents that spend most of their time waiting
Hyperscalers are racing to suspend agent environments between turns to stop billing during the long waits, and the savings come with a storage trade-off.

Nvidia hands European AI builders more open weights, but keeps the GPU lock-in

Beyond the GPU: storage is the AI line item most budgets still miss
Beyond the GPU (the chip that runs AI), inference — the work a model does each time it answers a request — leaves far more data behind than the user sees, and storage is the line that decides whether an AI product is profitable in 2027.
