AWS has launched its European Sovereign Cloud with a €7.8 billion investment, designed to meet EU regulatory demands and address data privacy concerns amid geopolitical tensions. Despite its operational separation from global regions, questions linger about legal protections against U.S. data access. Competitors like Microsoft and local providers may present stronger sovereignty options.

Kyra Mozley discusses the evolution of autonomous vehicle perception, moving beyond expensive manual labeling to an embedding-first architecture. She explains how to leverage foundation models like CLIP and SAM for auto-labeling, RAG-inspired search, and few-shot adapters. This talk provides engineering leaders a blueprint for building modular, scalable vision systems that thrive on edge cases.

In this series, we examine what happens after the proof of concept and how AI becomes part of the software delivery pipeline. As AI transitions from proof of concept to production, teams are discovering that the challenge extends beyond model performance to include architecture, process, and accountability. This transition is redefining what constitutes good software engineering.

To prevent agents from obeying malicious instructions hidden in external data, all text entering an agent's context must be treated as untrusted, says Niv Rabin, principal software architect at AI-security firm CyberArk. His team developed an approach based on instruction detection and history-aware validation to protect against both malicious input data and context-history poisoning.
