System Architecture

In Denmark, AI data centres have queued for more power than the entire national grid can supply, with ten-year waits and almost no jobs. The power, the money, and a question we keep dodging: do we actually need this?

Cloud and AI dominated every booth at V2 Security 2026. Both move trust somewhere you cannot inspect, and that is a strange direction for the security industry, of all industries, to be moving in.

Modern software depends on thousands of packages from strangers. When you run 'npm install,' you're executing code from maintainers you have never met. Supply chain attacks exploit this trust on a daily basis.

CPU clock speeds stopped scaling in 2005 when Dennard Scaling broke down. The real bottleneck? Moving data, not computing it. Modern systems need specialized hardware and smarter architectures to keep improving.

LLMs generate valid code quickly, but without proper context they cannot distinguish between secure and insecure patterns. Capability without context is a threat to AI code quality, just like any external contribution requiring review.
