Signal from the disconnected edge.

A running brief on offline AI, multilingual intelligence, and defense acquisition, written by Azcuna Dynamics for the people who buy, build, and operate language systems where the cloud is not an option.

Three rules. Every item is summarized from, and linked to, its public source. We cover model releases only when the weights are open and the provenance is disclosed. We cover acquisition only when there is a solicitation number. Opinion is labeled as opinion.

Looking for the long reads instead? The capabilities deep dives cover offline translation, air-gapped RAG, and model provenance in depth.
