RateGain and Cyprus Airways partner to optimize pricing strategies
RateGain Travel Technologies Limited, a global provider of AI-powered SaaS solutions for the travel and hospitality industry, has announced that Cyprus Airways has chosen its AirGain pricing intelligence platform. The partnership aims to support Cyprus Airways in accessing real-time competitive insights and strengthening its pricing strategies across its European and Middle Eastern routes.
As the national carrier of the Republic of Cyprus, Cyprus Airways operates flights connecting Cyprus with key regional destinations. In a market influenced by increasing competition, fluctuating demand, and evolving passenger expectations, the airline is seeking to improve pricing efficiency and operational decision-making.
By implementing AirGain, Cyprus Airways will gain access to real-time airfare data from more than 300 airlines and over 50 online travel agencies (OTAs). The platform is designed to help airlines refine their pricing models, adjust promotional offers, and respond more effectively to market shifts.
AirGain also recently introduced AI-Digest, a daily route performance digest tool offering insights into fare trends, market behavior, and pricing anomalies. This feature enables airline revenue management teams to make informed pricing decisions more quickly and adapt to changes in demand and competition.

Nvidia chief calls AI ‘the greatest equalizer' — but warns Europe risks falling behind
PARIS (AP) — Will artificial intelligence save humanity — or destroy it? Lift up the world's poorest — or tighten the grip of a tech elite? Jensen Huang, the global chip tycoon, offered his opinion on Wednesday: neither dystopia nor domination. AI, he said, is a tool for liberation. Wearing his signature biker jacket and mobbed by fans for selfies, the Nvidia CEO cut the figure of a tech rockstar as he took the stage at VivaTech in Paris. 'AI is the greatest equalizer of people the world has ever created,' Huang said, kicking off one of Europe's biggest technology industry fairs. But beyond the sheeny optics, Nvidia used the Paris summit to unveil a wave of infrastructure announcements across Europe, signaling a dramatic expansion of the AI chipmaker's physical and strategic footprint on the continent. In France, the company is deploying 18,000 of its new Blackwell chips with startup Mistral AI. In Germany, it's building an industrial AI cloud to support manufacturers. Similar rollouts are underway in Italy, Spain, Finland and the U.K., including a new AI lab in Britain. Other announcements include a partnership with AI startup Perplexity to bring sovereign AI models to European publishers and telecoms, a new cloud platform with Mistral AI, and work with BMW and Mercedes-Benz to train AI-powered robots for use in auto plants. The announcements reflect how central AI infrastructure has become to global strategy, and how Nvidia — the world's most valuable chipmaker — is positioning itself as the engine behind it. At the center of the debate is Huang's concept of the AI factory: not a plant that makes goods, but a vast data center that creates intelligence. These facilities train language models, simulate new drugs, detect cancer in scans, and more. Asked if such systems risk creating a 'technological priesthood' — hoarding computing power and stymying the bottom-up innovation that fueled the tech industry for the past 50 years — Huang pushed back. 'Through the velocity of our innovation, we democratize,' he told The Associated Press. 'We lower the cost of access to technology.' As Huang put it, these factories 'reason,' 'plan,' and 'spend a lot of time talking to' themselves, powering everything from ChatGPT to autonomous vehicles and diagnostics. But some critics warn that without guardrails, such all-seeing, self-reinforcing systems could go the way of Skynet in ' The Terminator ' movie — vast intelligence engines that outpace human control. 'Just as electricity powered the last industrial revolution, AI will power the next one,' he said. 'Every country now needs a national intelligence infrastructure.' He added: 'AI factories are now part of a country's infrastructure. That's why you see me running around the world talking to heads of state — they all want AI to be part of their infrastructure. They want AI to be a growth manufacturing industry for them.' Europe, long praised for its leadership on digital rights, now finds itself at a crossroads. As Brussels pushes forward with world-first AI regulations, some warn that over-caution could cost the bloc its place in the global race. With the U.S. and China surging ahead and most major AI firms based elsewhere, the risk isn't just falling behind — it's becoming irrelevant. Huang has a different vision: sovereign AI. Not isolation, but autonomy — building national AI systems aligned with local values, independent of foreign tech giants. 'The data belongs to you,' Huang said. 'It belongs to your people, your country... your culture, your history, your common sense.' But fears over AI misuse remain potent — from surveillance and deepfake propaganda to job losses and algorithmic discrimination. Huang doesn't deny the risks. But he insists the technology can be kept in check — by itself. 'In the future, the AI that is doing the task is going to be surrounded by 70 or 80 other AIs that are supervising it, observing it, guarding it, ensuring that it doesn't go off the rails.' The VivaTech event was part of Huang's broader European tour. He had already appeared at London Tech Week and is scheduled to visit Germany. In Paris, he joined French President Emmanuel Macron and Mistral AI CEO Arthur Mensch to reinforce his message that AI is now a national priority. — Chan reported from London.

Alphabet (GOOGL) Lands Surprise Win as OpenAI Picks Google Cloud for AI Expansion
Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOGL) is one of the 10 AI Stocks on Wall Street's Radar. On June 10, Reuters reported that OpenAI is planning to add Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ:GOOGL)'s Google cloud service to meet its growing needs for computing capacity. Despite being competitors in the artificial intelligence space, the collaboration is a surprising highlight of the strategic need for companies to pool resources to accelerate AI adoption. According to the sources, the deal was under discussion for a few months and was finalized in May. The massive demand for computing to train and deploy AI models significantly reshapes competitive dynamics, highlighting OpenAI's latest efforts to diversify its compute sources beyond Microsoft. Google's cloud unit will now supply additional computing capacity to OpenAI's existing infrastructure for training and running its AI models, a major win for the company. Discussing the aforementioned deal, Scotiabank analysts have deemed the development to be 'somewhat surprising.' They pointed toward growth opportunities for Google's Cloud unit and also expressed caution regarding competition from ChatGPT. 'The deal … underscores the fact that the two are willing to overlook heavy competition between them to meet the massive computing demands. Ultimately, we view this as a big win for Google's cloud unit, but … there are continued worries that ChatGPT is becoming an incrementally larger threat to Google's search dominance.' While we acknowledge the potential of GOOGL as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk. If you're looking for an extremely undervalued AI stock that also stands to benefit significantly from Trump-era tariffs and the onshoring trend, see our free report on the best short-term AI stock.
