AI in Safety-Critical Embedded Development: TASKING’s New Approach to Verification and Validation

by Amelia Dalton - May 15, 2026

This week we’re talking all about the future of embedded software development with TASKING Co-CEO Christoph Herzog. Christoph and I explore how Large Language Models and agentic AI are moving from novelty to necessity, directing external agents within the TASKING toolchain to automate critical verification and validation tasks. We also discuss the Model Context Protocol (MCP) … Read More → "AI in Safety-Critical Embedded Development: TASKING’s New Approach to Verification and Validation"

AI Data Centers in Space: Bonkers or Visionary?

by Max Maxfield - May 12, 2026

Artificial satellites have been on my mind a lot recently. Actually, I’ve been cogitating and ruminating on all sorts of things that are whizzing around over our heads, including satellites, space telescopes, and space debris. But let’s kick off with satellites, which themselves pretty much kicked everything else off.

These include communications, navigation, weather, Earth observation, scientific, military, … Read More → "AI Data Centers in Space: Bonkers or Visionary?"

Physical AI Robotic Ships on Patrol!

by Max Maxfield - April 30, 2026

I recently received an email that essentially said something like, “Interested in physical AI, agentic AI, robotic ships, autonomy, maritime, offshore, subsea, security, ocean science… [the list went on]? If so, get in touch!”

Let’s take a step back before we race forward. Someone recently asked me how my “triage process” works for people pitching potential articles to me. I’d never really thought about this … Read More → "Physical AI Robotic Ships on Patrol!"
