Artificial intelligence isn’t just about innovation and efficiency — it comes with hidden costs. From massive data centers and rising energy consumption to layoffs, governance, and long-term business impact, the real price of AI is often ignored. Companies rush to adopt AI, but are they calculating the true cost for the environment and their bottom line?

The "Velocity Gap" is real. AI like Claude and GitHub Copilot are pumping out code faster than ever, but there’s a catch: Engineers don't trust it yet. We’re moving away from the old days of "clicking around" in a test environment, but how do we verify code at the speed of light? Ken breaks down why the future of QA isn't just "testing," it’s simulation. Video collab with @ScottMooreConsultingLLC Learn More: speedscale.com.

AI is no longer just about "one-shot" prompts. In this session from our "From Idea to Agent" webinar, Ben Norris (AI Engineer at Civo) breaks down the four key priorities dominating the enterprise space in 2026. From the 130x explosion in token usage to the "vibe-coding" revolution, learn why businesses are turning away from US hyperscalers in favor of democratized, secure, and UK-sovereign AI infrastructure. We explore how autonomous agents are solving multi-step problems and why "Chain of Thought" reasoning is unlocking AI for heavily regulated industries like finance and healthcare.

Network device monitoring is often a mess of polling, graphs, and alerts that don't lead to answers. In this webinar, we'll show how to monitor routers, switches, and firewalls in a way that quickly surfaces what matters: interface health, errors, drops, saturation, latency signals, and performance regressions—without drowning in noise. You'll learn how Netdata turns raw SNMP metrics into high-signal insights using automated anomaly detection and AI-assisted troubleshooting, so your team can move from 'something is wrong' to 'here's the root cause' faster.
