India's electronics industry is moving beyond assembly. What components, semiconductors, design and supply-chain depth mean for India's next industrial phase.

Here's a comprehensive analysis of this week's (May 22–29, 2026) most significant technology industry developments: 1) AI and ML Breakthroughs Major Model Releases & Capabilities Breakthrough Key Details Impact Anthropic's $30B Funding Round $900B+ valuation, surpassing OpenAI for first time Intensifies AI race, validates enterprise AI market Google Project Genie 3 + Street View Turns real-world locations into interactive AI simulations using Street View geometry Revolutionar

After years of digital transformation across various industries and organizations, across many tech waves, what's happening right now is fundamentally different. Here's what every strategic leader needs to know: 1. Agentic AI Has Crossed the Chasm The shift from "AI that answers" to "AI that does" is now real: 65% of organizations now use generative AI in at least one business function—double the rate from 10 months ago. 72% of enterprises report at least one AI deployment in

AI shifts from experimentation to infrastructure and monetization. Hyperscalers and startups prioritize compute, energy, and workflow integration as buyers demand clear ROI. AI/ML Breakthroughs Mollifier Layers (UPenn): Stabilizes neural nets for inverse PDEs—unlocks genomics, climate, materials science. Google TurboQuant: Cuts KV-cache memory overhead for cheaper large-context models. Signal: Efficiency > scale. Scientific utility accelerates. Strategic Moves Player Move Imp

Theme: Companies are shifting from “AI pilots” to AI‑centric operating models, with capex, M&A, and partnerships increasingly clustered around AI‑enhanced infrastructure, agents, and governance. 1) AI‑vs‑non‑AI deals (2025–early 2026) Indicative split across major geographies and deal types.
