Nine in ten product engineering leaders plan to increase AI investment–but most favor modest growth of 1-25%, reveals new MIT Technology Review Insights report

Sustainability and product quality outrank cost reduction as top measurable AI outcomes in physical systems.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., March 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — A new report by MIT Technology Review Insights finds that product engineering leaders are scaling artificial intelligence cautiously, prioritizing verification, measurable outcomes, and first-time-right performance over rapid transformation.

The report, “Pragmatic by design: Engineering AI for the real world,” is produced in partnership with L&T Technology Services (LTTS) and is based on a survey of 300 product development, engineering, and technology leaders conducted in December 2025 and January 2026. All respondents are based in the United States and represent organizations with annual revenue of $500 million or more across 16 industries. The research also incorporates in-depth interviews with senior executives and industry experts.

Speaking at the launch of the report, Amit Chadha, CEO and managing director for L&T Technology Services, observed, “AI is moving beyond experimentation, becoming an integral part of how next-gen products are designed, engineered, and validated. Our current collaboration with MIT Technology Review Insights highlights how global engineering leaders across industries are adopting AI pragmatically – prioritizing reliability, driving measurable outcomes, and ensuring ‘first-time-right’ performance in physical systems. We see this shift accelerating as organizations continue to embed AI in the product lifecycle for enhanced quality, sustainability, and innovation across complex engineering environments.”

The key findings from the report are as follows:

  • Verification, governance, and explicit human accountability are mandatory in an environment where the outputs are physical—and the risk high. Where product engineers are using AI to directly inform physical designs, embedded systems, and manufacturing decisions that are fixed at release, product failures can lead to real-world risks that cannot be rolled back. Product engineers are therefore adopting layered AI systems with distinct trust thresholds.
  • Predictive analytics and AI-powered simulation lead near-term priorities. These capabilities—selected by a majority of survey respondents—offer clear feedback loops, allowing companies to audit performance, attain regulatory approval, and prove return on investment (ROI). Building gradual trust in AI tools is imperative.
  • Nine in ten product engineering leaders plan to increase investment in AI in the next one to two years, but the growth is modest. The highest proportion of respondents (45%) plan to increase investment by up to 25%, while nearly a third favor a 26% to 50% boost. And just 15% plan a bigger step change—between 51% and 100%. The focus for product engineers is on optimization over innovation, with scalable proof points and near-term ROI the dominant approach to AI adoption, as opposed to multi-year transformation.
  • Sustainability and product quality are top measurable outcomes for AI in product engineering. These outcomes, visible to customers, regulators, and investors, are prioritized over competitive metrics like time-to-market and innovation—rated of medium importance—and internal operational gains like cost reduction and workforce satisfaction, at the bottom.
  • Scaling requires refocusing the engineering workforce, forging strategic partnerships with third-party experts, and embedding trust early. With 73% of leaders expecting AI to take on routine engineering work, in-house expertise is shifting toward architecture and strategic judgment. As organizations increasingly rely on third-party ecosystems for execution, ownership of core intelligence becomes a decisive source of strategic control.

“AI adoption in product engineering follows a different logic than in purely digital environments,” says Laurel Ruma, global director of custom content for MIT Technology Review Insights. “Where outputs shape physical systems and cannot be rolled back, leaders are prioritizing reliability, governance, and measurable outcomes. The organizations that scale successfully will be those that embed trust early and treat governance as an enabler of performance.”

Delta Invites Global Energy Efficiency Visionary to Share Insights on the Energy Transition in the AI Era

Celebrating its 55th Anniversary with the Theme “Forward, Toward Better”

TAIPEI, March 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Delta today jointly hosted a forward-looking forum titled “Energy’s New Frontier: From Buildings to AI – A Holistic Evolution of Resilience and Efficiency” with the Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability’s Precourt Institute for Energy. Marking its 55th anniversary in 2026, Delta is launching a series of events under the theme “Forward, Toward Better.” The inaugural forum featured a keynote speech by internationally renowned energy efficiency expert Dr. Amory Lovins, co-founder of the Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI). During his keynote, Dr. Lovins shared practical examples of Integrative Design, demonstrating how a holistic and systems-oriented approach can significantly enhance energy efficiency across diverse sectors, including buildings, factories, and data centers.

Bruce Cheng, Delta’s founder and Honorary Chairman, said, “Dr. Lovins has been an important inspiration in Delta’s sustainability journey. More than two decades ago, his book Natural Capitalism highlighted the energy-saving potential of green buildings. After reading the book, I led our team to visit some of the most energy-efficient green buildings at the time in Thailand and Germany, gaining deeper insights into their environmental and energy-saving benefits. Inspired by these learnings, Delta has embraced green building initiatives since 2006, bringing this vision to life through 36 green buildings worldwide to date. Delta is honored to once again invite Dr. Lovins to Taiwan to share his ideas, hoping to inspire more companies and drive meaningful change.”

Dr. Amory Lovins said, “The world is rapidly shifting from fossil to renewables, from fuels to electricity, from centralized to distributed resources, and most importantly—from wasteful to efficient energy use. Global energy efficiency roughly doubled from Neolithic times to 1820, then tripled again, but now it can double again with conventional methods, and about triple again by adding “integrative design”— proven ways to optimize buildings, vehicles, and factories as whole systems. That is, the sextupling of global energy efficiency can now be approximately repeated, to great economic and security advantage. Hundreds of practical examples suggest this method’s strong value for Taiwan’s development and resilience.”

Ping Cheng, Delta’s Chairman and CEO, said, “Delta’s mission is to provide innovative, clean, and energy-efficient solutions for a better tomorrow. Our commitment to improving energy efficiency has supported our business growth, reflecting Dr. Lovins’ philosophy that companies can achieve both profitability and sustainability. Since reaching peak carbon emissions in 2017, Delta has steadily reduced emissions beginning in 2018 while revenue continued to grow, demonstrating a clear decoupling of business growth from carbon emissions. We have accelerated our decarbonization through initiatives such as implementing an internal carbon pricing mechanism. Through innovative technologies, we deliver energy-efficient solutions for data centers, microgrids, and other applications in the AI era. Delta will continue moving forward with industry partners, working toward a better and more sustainable future.”

During the forum, Dr. Amory Lovins joined Delta’s Founder and Honorary Chairman Bruce Cheng, Chairman and CEO Ping Cheng, and Board Director Yancey Hai in a panel discussion. The speakers shared insights on topics ranging from green buildings to data center efficiency, and discussed collaboration with industry and academia to advance solutions for global energy transformation in the AI era.

Dr. Amory Lovins, renowned energy visionary, is cofounder and chairman emeritus of RMI and an adjunct professor at Stanford University. For more than five decades, Lovins’ revolutionary ideas about energy efficiency and renewable energy have shaped public energy discourse. Lovins has advised major firms and governments in more than 70 countries.

Hong Kong–based K‑Tech and Calgary’s Aurora AZ Energy form joint venture to power large‑scale AI, HPC and crypto mining operations in Alberta with low‑cost wellhead natural gas.

K-TECH SOLUTIONS COMPANY LIMITED (NASDAQ: KMRK) ANNOUNCES JOINT VENTURE WITH AURORA AZ ENERGY LTD. TO DEVELOP UP TO 500 MW OF AI AND HPC INFRASTUCTURE IN CANADA

HONG KONG SAR & NEW YORK, US – Media OutReach Newswire – 16 March 2026 – K‑Tech Solutions Company Limited (Nasdaq: KMRK) (“K‑Tech” or the “Company”), a technology firm specializing in high-performance computing infrastructure, today announced that its subsidiary has entered a joint venture agreement, as supplemented, with Aurora AZ Energy Ltd. (“Aurora”), a developer of wellhead natural gas power solutions, to develop large-scale crypto mining, artificial intelligence (AI) and high‑performance computing (HPC) infrastructure in Alberta, Canada.

The Joint Venture plans to develop an initial 100 megawatts (MW) of IT capacity at Aurora’s flagship site in Alberta. Expansion beyond this level, potentially up to 500 MW over time, would be subject to securing additional power supply, land and capital. Aurora AZ Energy Ltd. is a specialist in wellhead energy solutions.

By integrating natural gas resources directly at the wellhead with advanced power generation technologies, Aurora intends to utilize natural gas resources to sustainably support high‑density computing operations. The Joint Venture expects wellhead-sourced power to deliver energy costs meaningfully below prevailing grid rates in North America, positioning the partnership’s facilities as a cost-efficient platform for data center environments on the continent. Additionally, the Joint Venture intends to convert natural gas that might otherwise be flared to generate power for computing operations, reducing waste.

Under the terms of the Joint Venture, Aurora will supply power‑rich data center sites sourced from its wellhead energy portfolio, while K‑Tech will lead the design, development, and operations of the computing facilities. Together, the parties will deploy purpose‑built, high‑density data centers optimized for crypto mining, AI training/inference, and other compute‑intensive workloads. The transaction is subject to customary regulatory approvals, including applicable provincial energy and environmental permits in Alberta.

Development Roadmap

The partnership is structured across several phases that together establish a roadmap to deploy over 100 MW and up to 500 MW of IT capacity:

Initial Deployment: The Joint Venture will launch at Auroras flagship site in Alberta, where the parties plan to develop an initial 100 MW of IT capacity supported by dedicated, wellhead‑sourced power infrastructure. Site preparation and infrastructure buildout are expected to commence in September 2026, with initial computing capacity projected to come online in Q2, 2027

Capacity Expansion: Subject to securing additional power and land at existing Aurora locations, the joint venture may expand total IT capacity at those sites toward the 500 MW target. The parties expect to evaluate expansion opportunities upon successful deployment of the Phase 1 facility.

Portfolio Scale-out: K‑Tech and Aurora intend to evaluate and may develop additional sites across Auroras broader wellhead energy portfolio, which currently encompasses over 20 active wellhead locations across Alberta. This creates an opportunity to further scale high‑density AI and HPC capacity beyond the initial development plan.

As AI models and HPC workloads become increasingly power‑intensive, scalable and cost‑effective infrastructure is critical. By partnering with Aurora, we are combining wellhead energy solutions with high‑performance chip design and data center expertise to support next‑generation AI and HPC applications,” said Kenneth Kwok, CEO of K‑Tech Solutions Company Ltd.

“Aurora was built to unlock the full value of natural gas at the wellhead,” said Jim Zhou, CEO of Aurora AZ Energy Ltd. Working with K‑Tech allows us to apply that capability to high‑density computing infrastructure. We believe this collaboration will support the integration of energy and digital infrastructure at scale.”

MDJM LTD and H5 Advance Creative Development of International Animated Short Film

Intensive Script Workshops Highlight Artistic Depth and Cross-Cultural Creative Collaboration

LONDON, March 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — MDJM LTD (Nasdaq: UOKA) (“MDJM” or the “Company”) announced that the development of its animated short film project in collaboration with internationally renowned creative studio H5 (S.A.R.L.) (“H5”) has recently entered an intensive script refinement phase, marking a significant step forward in the artistic development of the film.

The project, currently in production development, is part of MDJM’s broader initiative to create original animation works through collaborations with leading international creative studios. The ongoing dialogue between the two teams reflects a shared commitment to crafting a work of high artistic ambition and philosophical depth.

Recent creative discussions between MDJM and H5 have focused on strengthening the narrative structure, emotional resonance, and symbolic language of the film. Rather than approaching animation purely as entertainment, the project is being developed as an auteur-driven cinematic work that explores complex human questions through visual storytelling and atmospheric world-building.

The development process has involved extensive exchanges on how animation can convey philosophical themes through sensory experience rather than direct explanation. Particular attention has been given to the balance between narrative clarity and poetic ambiguity — ensuring that the film remains emotionally accessible while preserving the richness of its underlying ideas.

According to the creative proposal prepared by H5, the project explores a near-future environment shaped by advanced systems of organization and optimization, where everyday life appears seamless and harmonious on the surface. Within this carefully designed world, the story unfolds through subtle disruptions and intimate personal discoveries that gradually open new perspectives on human experience.

Rather than relying on conventional conflict or dystopian tropes, the film’s narrative approach emphasizes atmosphere, discovery, and symbolic gestures. The creative team is exploring how objects, environments, and sensory details can carry metaphorical meaning — allowing philosophical questions to emerge naturally from the story’s unfolding rather than through explicit discourse.

This approach reflects a broader tradition of auteur animation, drawing inspiration from both Eastern and Western cinematic languages. Visual references discussed during development include works by Hayao Miyazaki, Makoto Shinkai, and Rintaro, as well as contemporary animated films that combine contemplative storytelling with immersive visual environments.

Creative workshops have also examined the role of visual contrast in shaping the film’s narrative arc. The proposed aesthetic direction juxtaposes technologically refined environments with spaces marked by material history and organic complexity, allowing the visual world itself to participate in the storytelling process.

MDJM noted that this phase of script development highlights the collaborative nature of the project. The ongoing exchanges between MDJM and H5 demonstrate a shared dedication to rigorous creative exploration, where philosophical reflection, narrative experimentation, and visual research are developed in parallel.

MDJM emphasized that the project represents an important step in the Company’s strategy to develop original animation intellectual properties through partnerships with internationally recognized creative studios.

The Company expects to provide further updates on the project as the creative development progresses, as and when appropriate.

About MDJM LTD

MDJM LTD is a global cultural innovation company focused on cultural IP development, animation production, international licensing, and cultural venue operations. The Company has been expanding its operations in the UK, where it is developing projects such as Fernie Castle in Scotland and the Robin Hill Property in England.

Bitmine Immersion Technologies (BMNR) Announces ETH Holdings Reach 4.596 Million Tokens, and Total Crypto and Total Cash Holdings of $11.5 Billion

As of March 15, 2026 at 7:00pm ET, the Company’s crypto holdings are comprised of 4,595,562 ETH at $2,185 per ETH (NASDAQ: COIN), 196 Bitcoin (BTC), $200 million stake in Beast Industries, $83 million stake in Eightco Holdings (NASDAQ: ORBS) (“moonshots”) and total cash of $1.2 billion. Bitmine’s ETH holdings are 3.81% of the ETH supply (of 120.7 million ETH).

“Since the start of the Iran war, crypto prices have outperformed and Ethereum has outperformed the S&P 500 by 2,450bp. This is a meaningful outperformance in a mere two weeks,” said Thomas “Tom” Lee, Chairman of Bitmine.

“In our view, higher oil is triggering concerns of slowing growth for the global economy. And when investors worry about growth, they buy ‘growth stocks’ including MAG7, software and crypto. As the chart below shows, crypto moves in tandem with software stocks.” continued Lee.

In the past week, Bitmine also made two strategic moves. First, Bitmine increased its investment in existing “moonshot” Eightco (ticker: $ORBS) by an additional $80 million (link here). ORBS acquired a $50 million equity stake in OpenAI and a $25 million equity stake in Beast Industries. “ORBS is now the only publicly listed equity in the world to give investor direct exposure to OpenAI. OpenAI has a much anticipated IPO in 2026 and investors can now get direct exposure via ORBS. Moreover, we see a lot of synergy between worldchain (proof of human), the leading AI platform (OpenAI) and the world’s great content creator, Mr. Beast. Eightco is bringing Cathie Wood’s ARK on as a strategic advisor further increasing the appeal of ORBS.”

Second, Bitmine acquired 5,000 ETH from the Ethereum Foundation (EF, link here) enabling the EF to fund its core operations. “Bitmine acquired the ETH to demonstrate our support for the goals and operations of EF and enabled EF to raise capital without having to sell its ETH in the open market.”

“Bitmine has slightly increased the pace of ETH buys in each of the past two weeks, as our base case is ETH is in the final stages of the ‘mini-crypto winter.’ In the past week, we acquired 60,999 ETH compared to an average of 45k to 50k weekly recently,” stated Lee.

As of March 15, 2026, Bitmine total staked ETH stands at 3,040,515 ($6.6 billion at $2,185 per ETH). “Bitmine has staked more ETH than other entities in the world. At scale (when Bitmine’s ETH is fully staked by MAVAN and its staking partners), the ETH staking rewards is $272 million annually (using 2.81% 7-day BMNR yield),” stated Lee.

“Annualized staking revenues are now $180 million. And this 3.0 million ETH is about 66% of the 4.6 million ETH held by Bitmine. The CESR (Composite Ethereum Staking Rate, administered by Quatrefoil) is 2.79%, while Bitmine’s own staking operations generated a 7-day yield of 2.81% (annualized). We continue to make progress on our staking solution known as The Made in America VAlidator Network (MAVAN). This will be the ‘best-in-class’ solution offering secure staking infrastructure and will be deployed in early calendar 2026. Bitmine is currently working with 3 staking providers as the Company moves towards unveiling MAVAN in 2026,” continued Lee.

Bitmine crypto holding reigns as the #1 Ethereum treasury and #2 global treasury, behind Strategy Inc. (NASDAQ: MSTR), which owns 738,731 BTC valued at $53 billion. Bitmine remains the largest ETH treasury in the world. 

Bitmine is one of the most widely traded stocks in the US. According to data from Fundstrat, the stock has traded average daily dollar volume of $1.0 billion (5-day average, as of March 13, 2026), ranking #105 in the US, behind Nike (rank #104) and ahead of Starbucks (rank #106) among 5,704 US-listed stocks (statista.com and Fundstrat research).

The GENIUS Act and Securities and Exchange Commission’s (the “SEC”) Project Crypto are as transformational to financial services in 2025 as US action on August 15, 1971 ending Bretton Woods and the USD on the gold standard 54 years ago. This 1971 event was the catalyst for the modernization of Wall Street, creating the iconic Wall Street titans and financial and payment rails of today. These proved to be better investments than gold.
