Jack Demmer Automotive Group, blueflite, and Airspace Link have launched an autonomous drone delivery program for automotive parts in metro Detroit, Airspace Link said in a press release.

The program is backed by a $740,000 grant from Michigan's Advanced Air Mobility Activation Fund. It will use drones to deliver high demand parts within a 12 mile radius of Jack Demmer Ford dealerships in Southeast Michigan.

The companies said pilot test flights in metro Detroit have been completed and the project is moving into live commercial operations. The Ann Arbor to Detroit drone corridor will serve as the operating area.

Airspace Link's AirHub Drone Operations Management System will handle airspace coordination, operational oversight, and safety compliance. blueflite will provide its autonomous tiltrotor UAV platform for the deliveries.

Whitepaper

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.
