Microsoft Wants Your PC to Work While You Sleep, Surface Laptop Ultra Pre-Orders Open

Microsoft wants Windows PCs to carry out more AI work locally while using cloud models where they add value. New agent containers, intelligent routing, and RTX Spark hardware connect that vision, and our interviews…

How Wrong Is Your Marketing Mix Model (MMM)?

A well-built MMM can still be wrong, because the spend it learns from never held the information it needs. This article tests whether changing when you spend, not how much, can fix that. The post How Wrong Is Your…
