    The Middle East War and Rising Interest Rates Threaten AI Infrastructure Financing

    The Middle East war and rising interest rates are threatening the capital inflows that support AI infrastructure. AWS has acknowledged that drone attacks on its Bahrain and UAE facilities caused permanent data loss for some customers, and most remain offline. Saudi Arabia this month pledged $15 billion in domestic AI investment, Qatar has pulled back, while the UAE and Saudi Arabia are still pressing ahead; Jack Selby warned that Middle Eastern capital accounts for 25% of global AI investment. Meta's Muse is catching up to Instinct, which is reportedly seeking a $10 billion valuation.

    Zombie workloads drag down data center efficiency, and in the GPU era AI is spurring new cleanup methods

    IDCA research shows that as much as 13% of US cloud usage comes from abandoned yet still-running zombie workloads, while FinOps vendors such as Broadcom and AWS estimate that overall cloud waste often reaches 25% to 30% or even higher. GPUs are more expensive than CPU cores, and idle GPUs turn inefficiencies that were once just a rounding error on the bill into real costs. Graziano Casto of Akamas says that in the LLM era, the cost of ignoring inefficiency has risen by an order of magnitude almost overnight. Kubernetes is evolving to support AI workloads, but the related work is still in its early stages.
