FEX 2603 Released With A Partial Fix For The Steam GUI Crashing On AArch64  Phoronix

This blog is an adaptation of our keynote presentation at PyTorch Day India. In the debate between open source and proprietary technology, open source wins — especially in the AI arena. However, as the generative AI era continues, enterprises face a new version of an old challenge. While the industry is moving at breakneck speed, much of the underlying infrastructure remains fragmented or locked behind proprietary gates. If AI is to be the key to unlocking unprecedented potential, it must be open at every layer—from the datasets and training pipelines to the infrastructure and the serving

At Red Hat, we’ve always believed that the most complex challenges in technology are best solved through open collaboration. This week, as announced by the Linux Foundation, Red Hat has officially joined the OCUDU (Open Centralized Unit / Distributed Unit) Ecosystem Foundation as a general member.Launched under the stewardship of the Linux Foundation, OCUDU represents an important shift in how cellular networks are built. By creating a carrier-grade, open source software stack for 5G, 5G-Advanced, and 6G, the project aims to do for the Radio Access Network (RAN) what Linux did for the data c

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is increasingly relevant in today’s agentic AI ecosystem because it standardizes how AI agents access tools, data sources, and external systems. As agents move from passive chatbots to autonomous actors capable of planning and executing tasks, MCP provides a structured, interoperable interface layer that enables tool invocation with enhanced security, controlled access to external systems, and more consistent policy enforcement across heterogeneous environments.. In essence, MCP forms the connective tissue between LLM-driven reasoning and real-world system ex

At Red Hat Summit 2025, we introduced Ask Red Hat, a conversational AI designed to be an intelligent front door for our customers. It began as a rapid 12-week build to prove that open source AI could transform the support experience.Today, Ask Red Hat has evolved from a proof of concept into a sophisticated production reality. As of late 2025, it has served over 50,000 unique users and handled more than 450,000 messages. It is no longer just a standalone tool but a cross-product orchestration layer, integrated directly into docs.redhat.com and new support case creation in the Red Hat Customer
