Civo’s Post

The shift from AI training to inference isn't just a technical evolution - it's a geographic one. New piece from our Founder Bijan Alizadeh breaks down why.

The US built the training layer. The rest of the world will build the inference layer. The next wave of AI infrastructure value creation won’t happen where the last one did. We’re seeing a structural shift from centralized training to distributed inference - and it’s already reshaping where capital flows.

Following up on my previous post on practical AI strategy for businesses, I’ve created a simple visual illustrating the key steps from the Scottish AI playbook to help organisations build an AI policy. What I like most about this framework is its accessibility, it works regardless of a company’s size or level of AI literacy. Take a look !!

Many travel businesses are building internal AI. But not everyone starts from the same position.   Some players have a structural advantage, and it comes down to where they sit in the ecosystem, how much data they can access, and whether they can turn that data into continuous learning systems. What exactly creates this advantage is broken down in the carousel above.

The UK’s first sovereign LLMs are being built on Civo and we’re proud to be part of it. Locai Labs x Civo = the Mercury Series, a new generation of sovereign models, trained and run in the UK. This is about building real AI capability in the UK, not just talking about it. More here 👇 https://lnkd.in/eX5SsM6x

We’ve published a new piece looking at a persistent problem in the industry: why AI projects fail. Most failures are not about the models. They come down to data quality, unclear objectives, weak governance, and a gap between experimentation and real-world deployment. AI does not fail in isolation. It fails when the surrounding system is not ready to support it. In this article, we break down the common patterns we see and what organisations can do differently.

Instacue is a structured revision system built within Testbee that enables students to revise topic-wise and sub-topic-wise, supported by an intelligent AI assistant. It combines curated learning + guided practice + AI-driven doubt resolution into one seamless experience.

Looking to help AI agents use Rowan? We've recently upgraded the Rowan SKILL.md file from K-Dense Inc. to help AI agents like Claude Code or Codex build atop Rowan. The new skill contains example code, cost estimates, scientific advice, & other best practices from our team. Check out the Rowan skill here, and try using it in your own projects! https://lnkd.in/eJUV-5wA

Excited to announce our CPTO, Saurabh Giri is hosting a roundtable at The Millennium Alliance Enterprise AI Maturity and Transformation Assembly next week in Miami on April 9. He will be discussing the "Fast Lane to AI: Building Production-Ready AI in Weeks" which dispels the biggest myth in enterprise: that building production-grade systems takes years.
