The storage world hit a milestone worth pausing on this week. Kioxia and Dell have managed to pack ten petabytes of flash storage into a two rack unit server — a chassis roughly the height of two pizza boxes. That is a staggering density, and it signals how enterprise data centers are quietly being reshaped by the economics of solid state storage at scale.
Shifting to the world of AI research, a new piece making the rounds argues that DeepSeek V four Flash has made LLM steering vectors genuinely interesting again. The idea is that you can nudge a language model's internal representations to shape its behavior in precise ways — and with a more transparent architecture to work with, researchers think the technique finally has real traction beyond the lab.
