Contributor Spotlight | InterGlobix Magazine Issue 19 – Part 1

We’re honored to feature Dr. Vinton G. Cerf — one of the “Fathers of the Internet” and a defining voice in the evolution of digital infrastructure, in this edition of our Contributor Spotlight series.

In his latest InterGlobix series, Dr. Cerf delivers a timely, clear-eyed analysis of the AI-infrastructure surge. From accelerated subsea cable deployment to unprecedented GPU and TPU build-outs, he raises a question only a pioneer can frame with such precision:
Are we repeating the over-expansion patterns of the 1990s?

With his signature blend of technical depth and historical perspective, Dr. Cerf examines the balance between innovation, sustainability, market economics, and escalating power demand, reminding our industry that thoughtful foresight must guide rapid scale.

When horology ascends into high art.

Franck Muller’s Round Triple Mystery is a triumph of mechanical daring — featuring ultra-light skeletonized discs engineered to tolerances of thousandths of a gram, each one rotating in a cosmic rhythm across the diamond-encrusted dial.

Its spiral of light and motion creates a visual ballet that feels alive, accentuated by a striking triangle-cut diamond at center. The result is both technically bold and beautifully poetic — a watch that doesn’t just tell time, but reimagines how time can appear.

The AI Surge: Boom, Bust, or Necessary Evolution?

AI systems are advancing rapidly — not only learning and coding, but coordinating tasks, generating content, and shaping real-world decisions. To support this leap, global infrastructure is scaling at unprecedented speed.

In this exclusive InterGlobix Magazine feature, Dr. Vinton G. Cerf examines whether the massive expansion in data centers, networking hardware, subsea systems, and GPU/TPU capacity represents healthy, value-driven innovation — or signals the early stages of an unsustainable bubble.

His view: the risks are real, but the practical utility of AI across industries may ground this growth in long-term, durable transformation.
