Cognizant Introduces Sovereign Physical AI Platform as a Service

Cognizant announced in a press release the launch of its sovereign Physical AI Platform as a Service, designed to integrate autonomous systems into enterprise infrastructure. The platform is built on the Cognizant Intelligence Spine, which links physical systems such as industrial sensors, IoT devices, factory automation, and energy infrastructure into a single intelligence framework.

The platform enables enterprises to scale Physical AI across operations by combining multimodal intelligence capabilities including vision, sensing, positioning, and low latency communication. This integration supports greater control and visibility of physical systems while connecting them with agentic AI for coordinated decision making.

According to Cognizant, the Intelligence Spine acts as a bridge between physical edge devices and the agentic layer that executes reasoning and actions. The company is deploying this capability across multiple industries to deliver operational value through aligned engineering, AI, and industry expertise.

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?

Tensordyne

This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
