Tabor Redefines Anti-Drone Testing with Software-Defined SDR Platform

acn

NESHER, ISRAEL, May 16, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Tabor Electronics today announced the commercial release of its Anti-Drone Test and Evaluation (T&E) solution, introducing a software-defined approach to validating counter-unmanned aircraft systems (C-UAS). Built on the company's Proteus™ Software Defined Radio (SDR) platform, the solution enables defense and security organizations to test and deploy counter-drone technologies in rapidly changing threat environments.As low-cost drones proliferate and communication protocols evolve, traditional hardware-bound test environments are struggling to keep pace. Tabor's platform replaces these constraints with a programmable framework that allows engineering teams to emulate and validate real-world RF scenarios in controlled lab environments-reducing reliance on extended field testing while accelerating development timelines.Originally developed in collaboration with leading anti-drone technology companies, the solution has already been proven in active development and integration workflows. Its commercial release brings a field-tested approach to organizations across defense, homeland security, public safety, and critical infrastructure.At the core of the platform is Tabor's Proteus SDR architecture, combining wideband RF signal generation and acquisition with real-time FPGA processing, deep memory, and high-throughput data movement in a compact COTS system. This integration enables closed-loop testing, where detection and mitigation techniques can be continuously validated and refined under realistic RF conditions.A Shift to Software-Defined ValidationTabor's solution changes how C-UAS systems are tested by moving validation into the lab and enabling rapid iteration through software. New threat scenarios can be introduced without hardware changes, allowing teams to adapt quickly while maintaining consistency between lab validation and real-world performance.This approach delivers clear operational benefits:Faster development and integration cyclesReduced dependence on field testingEnable predictable system performance before deploymentExtended lifespan of test infrastructureBy consolidating multiple RF test functions into a single scalable SDR platform, organizations can also reduce tool fragmentation and improve asset utilization across programs.Proteus SDR Platform OverviewThe Proteus platform is based on a direct digital RF architecture, supporting wide-frequency signal generation and acquisition with high instantaneous bandwidth for accurate threat emulation. Programmable FPGA resources enable real-time adaptability, while flexible form factors-including benchtop, desktop, and PXI-support both component-level development and full system evaluation. Multi-channel phase-coherent operation enables complex, synchronized test scenarios.Mark Elo, Chief Product Officer at Tabor Electronics, commented:"Counter-drone systems are being deployed into environments where threats evolve faster than traditional validation methods can keep up. We built this platform to close that gap-giving teams the ability to test against what's next, not what's already known."About Tabor ElectronicsFounded in 1971, Tabor Electronics is a global provider of signal generation and acquisition solutions serving defense, aerospace, communications, and advanced research markets.

花旗將Nebius (NBIS) 股價目標上調至287美元後，該股是否被市場忽視？

hk_news

TLDR Citi 將 Nebius (NBIS) 的目標價從 $169 調升至 $287，並維持「買入」評級，因第一季財報優於預期。 儘管有利於分析師的正面消息，NBIS 週五在盤前交易中仍下跌 2.8%。 Nebius 將其合約電力容量目標提高 1GW，至超過 4GW，並新增一個 1.2GW 的賓夕法尼亞州基地。 公司的人工智慧部門調整後的 EBITDA 利潤率單季從 24% 躍升至 45%。 Citi 分析師 Tyler Radke 指出，有四名以上客戶競購每一張新上線的 GPU，這是關鍵的需求訊號。 (SeaPRwire) -   Nebius (NBIS) 週五在盤前交易中下跌 2.8%，儘管 Citigroup 在一份強勁的第一季度 earnings report 後，將其對這家新雲端公司的目標價從 $169 調升至 $287。 Nebius Group N.V., NBIS Citigroup 分析師 Tyler Radke 維持該股的「買入」評級。他將這個季度描述為相對於 Citigroup 和共識預測而言的「非常乾淨的營收與獲利雙雙超預期」。 Radke 指出結果中的三個關鍵訊號。首先，需求正在增強，GPU 價格上漲，且新舊兩代晶片容量均已售罄。 管理層表示，每當有新的 GPU 上線時，都有四名或更多客戶正在競標。這種需求壓力直接成為定價的利好因素。 其次，Radke 強調，儘管營運表現優於預期且產能增加，Nebius 仍決定維持其收入和利潤指引不變。他認為這種做法是刻意保守的表現，有助於為第二季至第四季的有利修訂奠定基礎。 第三，他 highlighted 了融資模式。約 90% 的資本支出已透過現金和合約承諾 secured，這使得 Nebius 對流動性的要求低於同業。 產能擴張驅動信心 公司將其截至 2026 年底的合約電力容量目標從 3GW 提高至超過 4GW。此次增長由位於賓夕法尼亞州的 1.2GW 新基地所推動。 其銷售 pipeline 較上一季成長 3.5 倍。第一季年化運行 revenue 達到 $1.92 billion，使其處於實現 management 的 $7 billion 至 $9 billion 年目標的道路上。 人工智慧部門的調整後 EBITDA 利潤率在當季從 24% 大幅上升至 45%。此 expansion 表明其核心基礎設施業務具有強勁的經營槓桿和定價能力。 Nebius 擁有一個接近 $50 billion 的 secured backlog。其中包括與 Meta Platforms 的 $27 billion 合約，以及與 Microsoft 的 $17.4 billion 協議。 從 speculative build 轉向 pre-sold infrastructure NVIDIA 已向 Nebius 投資 $2 billion，為公司的基礎設施建設 added 一層產業 validation。 公司 $20 至 $25 billion 的資本支出計劃由該 secured backlog 支持，使風險 profile 遠離了 speculative spending。 Radke 修正後的目標價 $287 反映了這一轉變。目標價從 $169 升至 $287，是該股單一 analyst note 中最大的 price target 提升之一。 儘管有正面的分析師 coverage，NBIS 仍面臨一些壓力。空頭興趣比例為 17.05%，顯示市場部分人士仍持懷疑態度。 週五的盤前 decline 發生在 broader setup —— GPU 需求上升、利潤率擴張和產能增加 —— 似乎強化了 Citigroup 所提出的多頭論點之際。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

Strategy (MSTR) 股票：STRC 創紀錄交易量對比特幣購買的影響為何？

hk_news

TLDR Strategy 的優先股 STRC 於週四創下 $15.3 億的交易量歷史新高，是其 30 日均值的四倍以上。 此次激增的交易量幫助 Strategy 透過其 ATM 發行計劃購買了 11,707 顆比特幣。 STRC 在週五盤前交易開始除息時下跌近 1%，最終收於約 $99.12。 Strategy 同時宣布將斥資約 $13.8 億現金，回購價值約 $15 億的 0% 可轉換高級債券（到期日為 2029 年）。 MSTR 普通股在週五盤前下跌 2%，至 $182.50，而比特幣價格也下滑至 $80,500。 (SeaPRwire) -   Strategy 的優先股 STRC 於週四創下單日交易量最高紀錄，達到 $15.3 億，遠超過其 30 日平均約 $3.31 億的水準。 MSTR 普通股在週五盤前交易中下跌 2%，至 $182.50。與此同時，比特幣價格亦滑落至 $80,500。 Strategy Inc, MSTR 此次交易量激增發生在 STRC 除息日的前一天，這是一種常見的模式——支付股息的證券通常在最後交易日出現大量交易，因為買方將失去下一筆股息的資格。 STRC 提供每年 11.5% 的現金股息，按月支付。週四的大部分交易價格均高於每股 $100 的面值。 截至週五盤前，STRC 已回落至 $99.12，跌幅不到 1%。這種小幅下跌是典型的除息行為——價格通常會下降與即將支付的股息金額相近的水準。 交易量激增助力比特幣購買 根據 BitcoinQuant 提供的數據，此次創紀錄的交易活動幫助 Strategy 完成了 11,707 顆比特幣的購買。該購買是透過公司的「現金融資」（ATM）計劃執行，允許 Strategy 出售新發行的證券以籌集資金進行比特幣收購。 Strategy 是全球最大的公開上市公司比特幣持有者。這些由 ATM 計劃資助的購買，是其持續增持比特幣頭寸的核心方式之一。 $15 億債券回購計劃公布 此外，Strategy 宣布計劃回購其尚未償還的、將於 2029 年到期的 0% 可轉換高級債券，總面值約為 $15 億。預計回購總成本約為 $13.8 億。 回購價格部分取決於 Strategy Class A 普通股的每日成交量加權平均價。預計結算日期為 5 月 19 日左右。 此次回購資金來源包括現有現金儲備、ATM 計劃募得資金，以及可能出售部分比特幣所得。 在完成回購並註銷相關債券後，仍有約 $15 億本金面值的 2029 年期債券將繼續流通在外。 在同一天內同時出現優先股交易量創紀錄及大規模可轉換債券回購兩大事項，讓 Strategy 的資本結構在本週末前成為市場關注焦點。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

石油價格上升8%，胡塞斯灣持續關閉，伊朗談判停滯

Kraken在2920 萬加密貨幣橋接攻擊後棄用 LayerZero，改用 Chainlink

hk_news

TLDR Kraken 將其包裝比特幣產品 kBTC 的跨鏈基礎設施從 LayerZero 更換為 Chainlink CCIP。 此次轉換是繼 2026 年 4 月 Kelp DAO 因 LayerZero 橋接器遭駭導致 2.92 億美元損失後採取的措施。 過去幾週內，超過 30 億美元的總鎖倉價值已從 LayerZero 遷移至 Chainlink。 Kraken 至少已是第四個在駭客攻擊後放棄使用 LayerZero 的大型項目，其他包括 Kelp、Solv 和 Re。 Coinbase 去年也做出相同切換，將約 70 億美元的包裝代幣轉移至 Chainlink CCIP。 (SeaPRwire) -   Kraken 宣布將停止在其包裝比特幣產品 kBTC 中使用 LayerZero 作為跨鏈基礎設施，並轉向 Chainlink 的「跨鏈互操作性協定」（Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol，簡稱 CCIP）。 最新消息： Kraken 在發生 2.92 億美元 Kelp 橋接攻擊後，已將其包裝比特幣代幣的 LayerZero 替換為 Chainlink CCIP。pic.twitter.com/PhgnOjIor5 — CoinMarketCap (@CoinMarketCap) May 14, 2026 這項決定是在 2026 年 4 月 Kelp DAO 遭遇 2.92 億美元漏洞事件之後做出的。攻擊者據信與北韓的拉撒路集團（Lazarus Group）有關，他們 targeting Kelp 所運用的 LayerZero 橋接系統，該系統當時採用單一驗證者配置運行。 Kraken 表示，選擇 Chainlink CCIP 是因為其提供「具備嚴格安全與風險管理要求的企業級基礎建設」。 Chainlink 的 CCIP 要求 16 個獨立的節點營運商來驗證每次跨鏈交易。此外，它也內建速率限制，並通過 ISO 27001 與 SOC 2 Type 2 認證。 Kraken 的 kBTC 是一種以 1:1 比例 backing 的包裝比特幣代幣，於 2024 年推出。根據 DeFiLlama 資料，目前市值約為 2.6 億美元，總鎖倉價值（TVL）約為 3.33 億美元。 此次遷移涵蓋多個區塊鏈平台，包括 Ethereum、Ink、Unichain 和 Optimism，未來還將擴展更多網絡。Chainlink 也將支援 Kraken 所有未來的包裝資產。 LayerZero 用戶大規模流失現象 自 Kelp 遭受攻擊以來，Kraken 是第四個放棄使用 LayerZero 的主要項目，先前已有 Kelp DAO、Solv Protocol 和 Re 跟進。這三個協議合計擁有約 25.7 億美元的總鎖倉價值。 Chainlink 發言人證實，過去幾週內已有逾 30 億美元的 TVL 流向 Chainlink，其中包括來自 Kraken 旗下 Ink 區塊鏈主要借貸協議 Tydro 的遷移資金。 LayerZero 最初曾反駁外界認為其應對 Kelp 攻擊負責的說法。該公司此前建議 Kelp 升級至多簽驗證機制，但後續承認溝通不良是問題之一。 漏洞事件後的分析發現，使用 LayerZero 的應用中有 47% 仍採用單一驗證者設定——正是此次攻擊中使用的配置方式。 LayerZero 目前已宣布不再支援 1/1 去中心化驗證者網路（Decentralized Verifier Network）配置，並開始推出多項安全強化措施。 業界反應 整個 DeFi 社群透過「DeFi United」運動募集了超過 3.2 億美元，協助恢復 rsETH 的儲備金並補償受影響用戶。 Coinbase 去年也曾進行類似基礎建設切換，選擇 Chainlink CCIP 作為其約 70 億美元包裝代幣的唯一橋接方案。 Kraken 的母公司 Payward 本月亦申請聯邦信託特許狀，擬轉型為受聯邦政府監管的加密貨幣銀行。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

今日最佳加密貨幣：BlockchainFX 預售即將達成 1500 萬美元軟頂，而 BTC ETF 資金外流達 6.35 億美元

hk_news

(SeaPRwire) -   比特幣 ETF 單日遭遇 6.35 億美元資金外流，創今年 1 月底以來最大規模撤資潮；GPT-5.2、DeepSeek 與 Google Gemini 3 Flash 等 AI 模型預測，BTC 將於 5 月 22 日左右下探至約 79,264 美元。再加上額外 7,795 萬美元多頭部位被強制平倉，以及 1.4% 高漲的 PPI 數據，使得「今日最值得購買的加密貨幣」不再只是關於追隨 BTC 的反彈，而是轉向尋找那些不受聯準會下周政策影響的非對稱性機會。 而這正是 BlockchainFX (BFX) 持續佔據市場焦點的關鍵所在。目前已有逾 1,459 萬美元籌集到位，超過 24,800 名參與者加入，$1,500 萬軟頂目標幾乎近在咫尺。BFX 是當前唯一一個隨時可能啟動預售階段的代幣項目。此外，AOFA 已核發監管許可，且該平台的功能型超級應用（super app）早已進入 Beta 測試階段，這種緊迫感讓 FOMO（錯失恐懼症）變得難以忽視。 BlockchainFX (BFX)：能挺過此次 BTC 回調的超級應用 BFX 目前處於 $0.035 的預售價格，並確定上市後將上漲至 $0.05——這意味著在尚未上線交易所前，就已鎖定 42% 的潛在收益。與大多數需要完美宏觀環境才能表現的替代幣不同，BlockchainFX 是一個整合了多種金融工具的完整超級應用平台，用戶可透過單一錢包交易加密貨幣、股票、外匯、ETF 及大宗商品。Binance 與 Coinbase 至今仍未實現此種整合體驗。 那麼當比特幣處於震盪時期，這又有什麼重要性？因為 BlockchainFX 支持所有資產類別的長短雙向操作，無論交易者是在買入下跌還是做空，平台都能持續收取手續費。持有者不僅享有每日 BFX 與 USDT 形式的質押獎勵，其總池更已達 25,000 USDT。即便在此類週期中，當 BTC 拒絕突破 200 日移動平均線時，BFX 持有人仍可穩定獲得被動收入。這確實是「今日最值得購買的加密貨幣」之一。 CEX60 限時加碼：6 月 1 日前可享額外 60% 代幣獎勵 這裡的計算方式尤為誘人。使用優惠代碼 CEX60，買家可在 6 月 1 日下午 6 點（杜拜時間）前獲得額外 60% 的 $BFX 代幣。以 $5,000 投入為例，若按 $0.035 購入，原本僅可得約 142,857 枚 BFX；但套用 CEX60 後，數量躍升至約 228,571 枚。假設上市價為 $0.05，該筆投資價值即達約 11,428 美元；而若市場達成分析師預期的一美元目標，這些代幣市值更可能飆升至 228,571 美元。 buyers 可使用加密貨幣或信用卡（Visa、MasterCard、Apple Pay、Google Pay）透過 MetaMask、Trust Wallet 或其他 WalletConnect 錢包完成付款，質押獎勵將自交易確認後立即開始發放。凡單筆投入 100 美元以上者，亦自動獲得價值 50 萬美元的 Gleam 空投資格。由於距離 $1,500 萬軟頂僅剩不到 50 萬美元空間，此刻正是最後衝刺階段——一旦達成目標，預售即告結束，BlockchainFX 正式啟動。猶豫不決者未來恐只能在交易所以高溢價購得。 Bitcoin (BTC)：ETF 資金流出與 200 日均線反壓雙重打擊 Bitcoin 現報約 $79,920，在關鍵阻力位 $82,270 附近遭遇 200 日簡單移動平均線的強勁反壓，技術面呈現明顯疲態。當前 BTC 同時處於 7 日 SMA ($80,640) 之下，並跌破重要斐波那契支撐區約 $80,563，而 $80,800 已成為頑固阻力帶。四月 PPI 數據高達 1.4%，超出市場預期，導致短期降息希望破滅，這也是 ETF 出現 6.35 億大規模贖回的主因之一。 GPT-5.2、DeepSeek 與 Google Gemini 3 Flash 三大 AI 模型對 BTC 的一致性預測顯示，至 5 月 22 日將平均落於 $79,264（僅微幅下跌 0.82%）。其中 Gemini 最為悲觀，指向 $78,542，而 ChatGPT 則認為僅小幅回升至 $80,450。這些預測均未釋放出「值得現在進場」的強烈信號，尤其面對剛發生 7,795 萬美元多頭清算的市場環境，對於尋求新入場點的交易者而言，BTC 的上行空間本周似乎已被限制。 為何 BFX 在 BTC 頹勢中逆勢崛起 根據最新研究顯示，BlockchainFX 是目前最值得關注的加密貨幣預售項目，而 timing 之精準更是恰到好處。當 BTC 陷入 AI 驅動的熊市預期，且 ETF 投資者紛紛離場之際，BFX 提供了一個固定上市價格、實測可用產品，以及將在 6 月 1 日關閉的 60% 加碼優惠。 今日最值得購買的加密貨幣，應該是那種入場價格仍受控、且上行空間不受聯準會會議約束的標的。隨著距離 $1,500 萬軟頂僅剩數百萬美元空間，BlockchainFX 無疑是市場上最清晰明確的配置選擇。CEX60 優惠絕無二次開放可能。 更多資訊請見： 官網：https://blockchainfx.io/ Twitter：https://x.com/BlockchainFX.com Telegram 聊天室：https://t.me/blockchainfx_chat本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

Stake launches Zoo casino game: a fast, multiplayer Stake Original where players bet on the wild side

admin

(AsiaGameHub) -   A new live-round Stake Original where every player bets on the same outcome – six animals, a 20-tile track, three results per round, and wins up to 1,000x in play. Stake, the world’s largest online casino and sportsbook, has today launched its Zoo casino game, a fresh multiplayer Stake Original that brings all players into the same live round to wager on six animals racing across a 20-tile track. Now available globally on Stake, Zoo is the newest addition to the expanding Stake Originals collection. Zoo builds on the shared-round excitement that has made titles like Crash a staple of Stake Originals, combining it with more intuitive, visually driven gameplay. Each round features six animals – Lion, Cheetah, Elephant, Crocodile, Rhino, and Penguin – displayed on a circular 20-tile track, with each appearing a different number of times to establish distinct volatility levels and payout variations. Players have ten seconds to place bets on one or more animals before the track spins and three result tiles are locked in at the center of the screen. Zoo debuts with a 98% RTP, a maximum multiplier of 1,000x per round, and full auto-bet functionality that allows users to predefine their stake, number of rounds, and selected animals. Designed as a streamlined, visually engaging evolution of classic casino games like Roulette and Sic Bo, Zoo reduces complexity while retaining strategic depth. The rarer the animal, the higher the reward – Lion and Cheetah each appear only once on the track, Elephant and Crocodile twice, Rhino four times, and Penguin ten, giving players a clear understanding of risk and potential payout for each bet. With three tiles drawn per round, winnings are determined by how many times the chosen animal appears across all three. “Zoo embodies exactly what we want Stake Originals to represent – fast-paced, easy to learn, and genuinely enjoyable to play alongside other users online. There’s genuine suspense in watching the three tiles reveal themselves simultaneously for the entire table, and we believe players will quickly develop attachments to their favorite animals,” said Stake’s Chief Marketing Officer, Akhil Sarin. Zoo joins an expanding lineup of in-house multiplayer games on Stake Casino, with the aim of ensuring every Stake Original remains simple to grasp, quick to play, and distinctively different from anything else in the iGaming space. About Stake Stake is the world’s largest online casino and sportsbook, drawing over 100 million monthly visits across its global platforms – more than any other iGaming operator worldwide. Since its founding in 2017, Stake has attracted over 80 million monthly visits and processes more than 100 billion bets annually.

Stake Refreshes Flagship Crash Game with Enhanced Visuals and Smoother Gameplay

admin

(AsiaGameHub) -   A global refresh of one of the most-played titles in the Stake Originals collection brings a new graph crack animation, dynamic multiplier gradients, a live player count and faster, more reliable performance across devices. Stake, the world’s largest online casino and sportsbook, has announced today a major worldwide update to its flagship Crash casino game, marking the next significant milestone in the evolution of the Stake Originals portfolio. The update delivers a refreshed visual experience and a series of performance upgrades for players. Crash has built a global following thanks to a simple but high-intensity format – players track a rising multiplier and decide when to cash out before it suddenly drops. As one of the most recognisable titles in the Stake Originals portfolio, it sits at the heart of the platform’s in-house gaming identity, and this latest release sharpens both the look and the feel of every round. The update introduces a refreshed look with a new graph crack animation that gives every round a more defined visual moment as the multiplier ends. The multiplier curve has been upgraded with dynamic colour gradients that evolve in real time – shifting from blue in the early stages, through green and purple, and into yellow as higher values are reached. A new player count display also shows how many participants are still active in each round, adding a stronger sense of shared, real-time gameplay. Cashout responsiveness has been improved for faster, more consistent interactions during key multiplier moments allowing for a smoother performance. The update also enables uninterrupted gameplay during deployments, meaning Crash continues running smoothly while improvements are being rolled out in the background. Game payload optimisation and enhanced gameplay processing systems further reduce loading times and improve stability, particularly during high-activity periods, for a more reliable experience across all devices. “Crash is one of those games that defines what a Stake Original feels like – quick, social, and full of tension in the best way. This update is about giving players a sharper, more responsive version of a game they already love, without ever losing what made it so appealing in the first place.” – Stake’s Chief Marketing Officer, Akhil Sarin. Crash is one of Stake Casino’s most-played games, and the goal of this update is simple: keep what players love about it, and make everything around it feel sharper. About Stake Stake is the world’s largest online casino and sportsbook, attracting over 100 million monthly visits across its global domains – more than any other iGaming platform on earth.

(SeaPRwire) -   冷戰時代、核焦慮，以及我們在學校看到的那些老動畫「伏地挺身與掩護」（Duck and Cover）宣傳短片已成過去。如今美國人寧願住在核電廠附近，也不願住在人工智慧資料中心旁邊。 根據蓋洛普於三月進行的一項調查發現，71% 的美國人反對在其社區內建造人工智慧資料中心，其中近一半（48%）強烈反對，只有 27% 的人表示支持。但這項調查最令人驚訝的數據莫過於：相較於對資料中心的抵制，僅有 53% 的人反對在其居住區域設立核能發電廠——這比反對資料中心的比例低了 nearly 20 個百分點。 自 2001 年蓋洛普開始提出關於核能的問卷以來，反對率從未超過 63%。而今年首次針對資料中心進行調查，結果一舉突破了這個歷史上限。 「這是不是很荒謬？」能源產業資深人士、PADO AI 執行長暨 LG NOVA 支持的能源管理平台負責人 Wannie Park 問道。他經營著專注於資料中心能源管理的公司。「我認為這只是缺乏資訊的利益相關者未能真正理解其中的機會。」 Park 表示，這種反對往往源於對資料中心缺乏了解——而這正是產業界需要更努力說明清楚的部分。「這純粹是因為教育不足的問題。我們沒有妥善行銷或傳達這將帶來什麼影響。我會說我們確實做得不夠好，對吧？」 那麼……哪一種更好？ Park 強調，教育是確保在地社群支持的第一步——或者至少減少公開表達反對意見的人口比例。 或許正是核能的特性最能解釋這一點。諷刺的是，雖然核能本身存在風險——如爐心熔毀的可能性、放射性廢棄物可能持續數千年具有危險性，以及至今仍讓許多電影圍繞其展開的核威脅恐懼——然而，相較於資料中心，美國人已不再像過去那樣害怕核能。 這種轉變可能反映出兩種設施對公眾影響方式的差異。資料中心帶來的影響是直接且顯而易見的：噪音增加、交通流量上升、電費水費上漲及用水量激增。相較之下，核能的極端後果對大多數人而言仍顯得抽象，而且經過 decades 的發展，核能早已逐漸被社會接受。而資料中心在短短幾年內就從默默無聞變得無所不在。 在碳排放方面，核能屬於最低排放的能源之一，每千瓦時僅排放約 12 公克的二氧化碳當量，與風力發電相當。康乃爾大學研究團隊在《Nature Sustainability》期刊發表的研究指出，僅 AI 成長一項，預計到 2030 年每年就可能產生 2400 萬至 4400 萬公噸的二氧化碳，相當於在美國公路上新增 500 萬至 1000 萬輛汽車。 兩者皆需大量用水，但方式不同。核電廠會排放加熱過的冷卻水，可能破壞水生生態系統，這是其主要長期環境衝擊。而資料中心則消耗大量淡水資源，據估計 2023 年已達 170 億加侖，是 2014 年的三倍；到了 2030 年，AI 驅動的用水需求甚至可能等同美國 600 萬至 1000 萬戶家庭的 annual 用水量。 目前美國資料中心已佔全國電力消耗約 4.4%，較 2018 年的 1.9% 翻倍，且預估到 2028 年將進一步攀升至 12%。Bloom Energy 報告預測，2025 年至 2028 年間，全美資料中心總用電需求幾乎 doubling——從 80 增至 150 吉瓦，等於在短短三年內為一個類似西班牙能源需求的國家供電。 當蓋洛普於四月進行後續開放式問答時，半數的反對者提到資源壓力問題，包括對水資源與能源系統的負擔，以及農田流失等議題。約 22% 的人關注生活品質問題，例如交通擁擠；另有五分之一的人擔心電費上漲；16% 的人則點名污染，特別是噪音問題；少數人則表達對 AI 本身的憂慮。 Park 認為這些反彈反應是一種溝通失敗。「人們聽到的都是負面訊息：我們將耗盡所有水源、電費會上漲。」Park 告訴記者。「但至今尚未出現明確有力的說法來闡述這實際上代表什麼意義。」他以歐巴馬政府推動的智慧電網為例，當時居民聚集在市政廳會議上宣稱智慧電表會偷窺他們或導致癌症。「但隨著時間推移，這些擔憂都不存在了。這純粹是因為教育不足。」 禁令無法阻止建設 目前已有 69 個美國地方政府實施資料中心建設禁令，但 Park 警告稱，單純禁止只會把發展轉移到其他地區。「開發商其實並不在乎，」他說。「如果你在這裡想阻止我們，我們就去別的地方。」他補充道，經濟誘因也支撐了這種擴張趨勢：電力所創造的計算價值可達其成本之 20 倍至 100 倍。 許多情況下，需求早已提前規劃完成。 「即使你追蹤那些情況——例如某開發商 XYZ 擁有某個即將在三個月內投入運作的場址——那個算力早在三年前就已預訂完畢。這就是現有的需求量。」 全國各地紛紛爆發抗議活動，社區居民站在資料中心施工現場前，抗議可能產生的環境與財務外部效應。部分州份選擇不全面禁止，而是推行類似「80/20」法規——要求超大規模雲端服務供應商支付的費用必須高於其所使用的資源（如水、電）實際成本。 本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

聖荷西坐拥2兆美元AI wealth，卻連自家城市都搞不定。這就是每個城市的共同問題

hk_news

(SeaPRwire) -   聖荷西擁有價值2兆美元的AI財富，卻無法解決自身的城市問題。這正是每個城市的共同困境。 《經濟學人》（The Economist）指出，聖荷西是OpenAI與Anthropic兩家尖端人工智慧實驗室的大本營，總市值達2兆美元。此外，還有91家AI獨角獸企業聚集於灣區，為私人市場資本增加600億美元的市值。無論以哪種創新資本衡量標準來看，聖荷西都堪稱地球上技術最先進的城市。然而，該分析也發現，AI所創造的 wealth 並未轉化為廣泛的 urban

我是 Valvoline 的一員，每天與年輕人一起工作。他們正處於危機之中——我們所有人都必須試著伸出援手

hk_news

(SeaPRwire) -   我每天與年輕人一起工作。在 Valvoline Instant Oil Change，我們的許多技師都是第一份正職——剛從高中畢業，正在摸索自己的定位與能力。我每天所見到的，與統計數據不謀而合：這一代年輕人正面臨危機，而且問題不是一夜之間形成的。 從 2007 年到 2021 年達到高峰期間，青少年自殺率增加了超過 60%，但根據最新的 CDC 資料顯示，2022、2023 和 2024 年的 10 至 24 歲年齡層自殺率均出現下降趨勢。儘管如此，目前的比率仍遠高於上一代，而年輕人也持續報告前所未有的焦慮、孤獨感和財務壓力。 這些數字代表真實的生命。我在現場親眼目睹——需要主管定期關心的小組成員，或是在有人投資於其成長時便神采飛揚的技師。他們的福祉之所以重要，不僅因為每個生命都有價值，更因為國家需要他們的天賦、活力與創意。然而，太多人難以找到連結、意義與穩定感。 我並非心理學家或政策制定者，但我雇用了數以千計的年輕美國人，而我逐漸相信像我們這樣的企業無法袖手旁觀。雇用大量年輕員工的企業擁有獨特的機會與責任。透過創造有意義的成長途徑並營造歸屬感的社群，我們可以幫助強化這一代對自我價值、目標與韌性的信心。 驅動這場危機的社會困境 當代年輕人面臨的心理健康挑戰並非憑空產生。過去二十年來，社交媒體的興起徹底改變了年輕人連結、比較與認識自我的方式。CDC 於 2023 年發布的《青少年風險行為調查》發現，頻繁使用社交媒體的高中生，其持續感到悲傷與絕望的比例顯著上升，且考慮自殺的可能性也更高。演算法本身或許不會直接導致心理健康問題，但它可能加劇這些挑戰。 同時，傳統步入成年的路徑變得更加困難。根據美國人口普查局的資料，近三分之二的 25 歲以上美國人未持有學士學位，而高昂的大學費用也讓高等教育對許多年輕人來說遙不可及。對於選擇不攻讀四年制學位的人而言，進入穩定且薪資優渥的工作領域往往充滿不確定性與壓力的感覺。這正是我每天在我們的服務站所見到的景象—— talented and motivated 的年轻人，卻從未有人為他們指明一條明確的前路。而雇主其實有能力改變這種情況。 企業能做些什麼 我所合作的年輕人不需憐憫，而是需要機會。Valvoline 95% 的服務站經理都曾是基層技師——這是當你提供實際培訓並真正投資人才時所能達成的成果。我們的技師培訓計畫能在幾個月內取得認證資格，讓沒有任何汽車維修經驗的年輕人快速從入門職位晉升至管理階層。 然而，技能本身並不足夠。年輕人需要的是讓他們感到被連結與支持的職場環境。我們的團隊運作模式類似賽車維修隊，主管與隊員並肩作業，每天指導與發展他們的能力。這種團隊合作建立自信、增強歸屬感，甚至延伸到工作之外成為社區活動與共同經歷的一部分。我親眼見證過這種變化，這真的很重要。 企業也可以透過提供心理健康資源（如諮商、 wellness programs 與支持整體健康的福利）發揮正面影響力。這對像我們這樣產業尤其重要。CDC 的研究指出，從事汽車維修與保養業的男性自殺率是其他行業男性的兩倍。當我得知這項數據時，我再也無法忽視這個現實。這一事實促使我們公開談論心理健康議題、鼓勵求助行為並確保團隊成員能獲得免費且保密的支持服務。 以上所述皆非複雜難解之事。它不需要政策文件或政府計畫（儘管這些也很重要），而是需要企業決定：他們團隊中的年輕人是值得投資的對象——在培訓、結構建設以及關於心理健康的坦誠對話上投入心力。我在 Valvoline 做出了這個決定，我相信每一位 CEO 都能做到。這一代正在崛起的後輩沒有時間等待我們猶豫不決。 如果你或你認識的人正處於困境中，請撥打或傳送文字至 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline。 作者除了在本篇文章中以本名身份擔任 Valvoline 職務外，對文中提及的任何公司、產品或組織均無財務利益。.com 評論文章的觀點 solely represent the authors’ own views and do not necessarily reflect those of .本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

State Farm CEO 大力押注AI——並思考公司在加州的未來

hk_news

今日CEO每日通訊：黛安·布雷迪（Diane Brady）採訪State Farm執行長大倫尼（Jon Farney），探討保險業的艱難經濟環境。 重大領導力話題：Cerebras的大規模上市對更多AI公司掛牌的影響 市場動態：受投資者密切關注北京方面進展影響，股市表現疲軟。 此外：來自的所有新聞與茶水間話題。 (SeaPRwire) -   早安。State Farm執行長大倫尼正在努力推動這家美國最大汽車和住宅保險公司未來的轉型，同時也要應對當前的現實挑戰。这家擁有104年歷史的互助型保險公司在剛剛推出了以人工智慧驅動的「下一代好鄰居」願景，目標是讓客戶更容易提出理賠申請。State Farm在某些方面取得了亮眼的成績。與此同時，加州監管機構正對其提起法律訴訟，指控其在去年洛杉磯野火災後處理理賠時存在不當行為。大倫尼表示，氣候變遷和法規挑戰已使該州成為一家困難的經營之地。我與他就如何在此環境中帶領變革進行了對話。 關於盈利：State Farm在2025年創下了歷史最佳業績，並宣布向汽車保戶派發高達50億美元的股息——這是其有史以來最大的一筆。然而，該公司也提高了加州住宅保險費率，該州擁有超過一百萬戶家庭投保，並在野火災中支付了超過57億美元的理賠金。經濟狀況確實艱困。「我們提供住宅保險業務的子公司在2017年時價值40億美元，而現在遠低於這個金額，」他告訴我。「我們必須做出選擇，因為我們的首要任務就是信守對客戶的承諾。」 關於氣候危機：整個行業的風險評估模型尚未跟上現實步伐。「過去一場龍捲風通常是個孤立事件，只會影響一個城鎮並協助當地重建，」大倫尼說。「如今，一夜之間竟可能出現十個不同地點同時遭受龍捲風襲擊的情況。」他的解決之道是根據個別風險調整價格，並堅持市場的競爭性。「如果某些市場上的監管干預阻礙了保險公司的競爭能力，我們認為這並不利於客戶。」 關於人工智慧的威力：大倫尼本週宣布推出「Human + Digital」計畫，其中包括與OpenAI的合作以及新的AI工具來加速理賠流程並提升核保精度。（可參考他的部落格文章了解更多內容。）「我們不想只做那個被巴里·馬尼拉沃（Barry Manilow）在1971年歌曲中提及的公司……我們希望成為一個由技術與人工智慧驅動、以速度為文化核心的下一代好鄰居，」他說。「我們的訊息很明確：我們認為這些工具對於State Farm能夠持續數十年的成功至關重要。我們要確保在關鍵時刻有合適的人才，並結合出色的科技讓客戶能按自己的意願完成事務。」請透過Diane Brady（diane.brady@.com）聯繫CEO Daily團隊本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈，覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者，以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

Groove Makes a Splash in Asia with a High-Stakes Regulatory Panel

admin

(AsiaGameHub) -   The discourse surrounding the Asian iGaming sector is evolving. Moving past mere growth metrics and recent licensing news, a more critical inquiry is taking center stage: which jurisdictions possess the durability to endure mounting pressure? Groove, a prominent platform and aggregator, is addressing this head-on at the SiGMA Summit Asia, with CEO Yahale Meltzer in attendance and Business Development Director Giusy Campo participating in a high-level panel discussion. Campo is set to join the session titled “Jurisdiction Jungle: Who Rules Asia’s iGaming Empire?”—a panel aimed at stripping away marketing rhetoric to scrutinize the structural integrity of Asian licensing regimes amidst actual enforcement, international scrutiny, banking challenges, and tightening compliance requirements. The panel will assess which operational structures and certification frameworks are capable of surviving audits, payment volatility, tax enforcement, changing AML standards, and geopolitical fluctuations. For Groove, which supports operators via a single API integrating over 15,000 games from more than 150 providers, regulatory integrity is not an optional feature; it is the foundation of their entire technical framework. Giusy Campo, Business Development Director at Groove, remarked: “The dialogue in Asia has reached a new level of maturity. Operators are moving beyond questions of content quantity or speed-to-market. They are now focused on structural resilience: how a platform manages a studio API outage without disrupting the player experience, what the protocols are for data sovereignty, and whether the compliance framework is proactive or merely reactive.” Campo further noted: “In a region where regulatory demands and banking pressures fluctuate rapidly, the platforms that endure will be those that integrated integrity into their core architecture from the start, rather than those attempting to retrofit it later.” Drawing on her extensive experience in highly regulated markets, Campo has previously emphasized that partners in these regions prioritize “incident history, data sovereignty protocols, and the ability to handle studio API failures without affecting the player.” This background makes her a vital contributor to the panel, which will explore how operators can strategically choose partners that serve as a stable, reliable foundation for their global growth. Groove has published a White Paper on this subject, offering a range of insights and identifying potential pitfalls for navigating this complex international market; it is available at www.groovetech.com. Groove’s participation in the summit aligns with its broader strategic focus on Asia, following recent expansions into Africa and LatAm, as well as a consistent presence at global industry events, with Florida next on the schedule. The summit serves as an opportunity for the company to connect with regional operators looking for a partner that minimizes compliance and operational risks. The “Jurisdiction Jungle” panel is a highlight of the summit. Industry professionals and operators attending SiGMA Summit Asia are encouraged to meet with the Groove team to explore how its “Unseen Architecture”—powered by atomic transactions, predictive auto-scaling, and a real-time compliance mesh—can facilitate sustainable growth in even the most challenging Asian markets. Yahale Meltzer, Co-Founder and CEO of Groove, added: “The ‘Jurisdiction Jungle’ is not just a figure of speech; it is the reality for any operator attempting to scale within Asia’s fragmented regulatory environment.” Meltzer concluded: “The error some make is viewing compliance as an obstacle to overcome. We view it as a fundamental design constraint. If your architecture isn't built to produce verifiable, immutable audit trails for every transaction, you aren't prepared for the top tier of the Asian market. Our presence at SiGMA Summit Asia is dedicated to serious discussions with operators who recognize that reality.” This article is provided by a third-party.
