1. Nvidia forecasts quarterly revenue above estimates
-- Nvidia projected revenue for the current quarter above Wall Street estimates after reporting its latest results, Reuters reported.
-- The outlook supports near-term demand for advanced chips, data-center construction and electricity, while increasing the financial risk to cloud firms if AI revenue lags infrastructure spending.
2. U.S. Army awards up to $2.2 billion for base microreactors
-- The Army awarded contracts worth up to $2.2 billion to five companies to build nuclear microreactors at five U.S. bases.
-- Successful deployments could establish a military market for small reactors while reducing dependence on vulnerable civilian grids and fuel deliveries.
3. GPUThor attack bypasses Nvidia memory protections
-- University of Toronto researchers demonstrated that GPUThor can defeat ECC protections on widely used Nvidia Ampere workstation GPUs, enabling denial of service and root-level privilege escalation.
-- Cloud operators face a cross-tenant security risk because an untrusted CUDA workload could corrupt GPU page tables and gain arbitrary host-memory access.
4. Brazil sues Discord for $97 million over child-safety failures
-- Brazil filed a $97 million lawsuit alleging that Discord failed to protect children on its platform, Reuters reported.
-- A judgment against Discord could increase legal exposure for private online communities and force stricter age verification, content moderation and data-handling controls.
