UK tech spending falls short as AMD preps Zen 6 and Fireworks AI faces data breach

The UK's initiative to boost domestic technology has fallen short, with less than one-sixth of government tech spending remaining within the country. This shortfall is attributed to a reliance on foreign suppliers for critical infrastructure and software. Meanwhile, AMD is preparing to launch its Zen 6 architecture, promising significant performance gains and a new superchip designed to compete with Nvidia's offerings. In the cybersecurity realm, Fireworks AI has experienced a data exposure incident, and Microsoft is addressing numerous security vulnerabilities in its Azure Linux distribution. AI
