Nets ranked as top-5 team in NBA in terms of best trade assets
Nets ranked as top-5 team in NBA in terms of best trade assets The Brooklyn Nets have an important offseason ahead of them as they have decisions to make in the upcoming 2025 NBA Draft and in free-agency once the 2025 NBA Finals is over. Brooklyn is in a great position this summer to make some noise as they have plenty of draft capital and cap space and that's why they're recognized as one of the teams with major advantages. In his article for Bleacher Report, Grant Hughes ranked the top-five teams in the league in terms of the best trade assets to offer and the Nets landed at the third spot on the list, ahead of the Utah Jazz and San Antonio Spurs and behind the Houston Rockets and the Oklahoma City Thunder. Considering the fact that Brooklyn is expected to have the most cap-space in the league by far along with their draft capital, the ranking makes sense. "If you view cap flexibility as a trade asset, the Nets have a case to rank even higher than this," Hughes wrote. "But it feels like a bit of a stretch to view their glut of offseason spending power (between $40 and $80 million, depending on what they do with their free agents) as an actual trade chip." To Hughes' point, Brooklyn having plenty of cap space may not mean much in terms of how they'll operate in free-agency given that most NBA pundits are anticipating the Nets to use their salary cap for moves other than outright signing the best players available in free-agency. Since Brooklyn is in a position to outbid every team for any player on the free-agent market, they may be able to maximize their cap space by also getting desirable assets from teams looking to shed payroll, like the Boston Celtics, for example. While the Nets are going to be looking around the free-agent market to find the best players for what they want to do moving forward under the Jordi Fernandez/Sean Marks regime, the organization is not going to make a splash if the outcome isn't contending for a playoff spot at the very least. With that as the backdrop, the extra cap space and draft picks are more likely means to getting more assets as opposed to getting the best players.

Automakers face challenges in managing software-defined vehicles at scale
This story was originally published on Automotive Dive. To receive daily news and insights, subscribe to our free daily Automotive Dive newsletter. NOVI, MICHIGAN — With the auto industry's shift toward building more connected vehicles powered by software continuously updated over-the-air, OEMs are rapidly moving from hardware-centric vehicle development processes to a software-first approach. This pivot also includes the integration of AI and adoption of a cloud-based development environment for software-based vehicles. However, to support this transition, legacy automakers still face challenges in data management and technology integration, according to a recent panel discussion on the topic at the AutoTech 2025 conference in Michigan. The panel, which was moderated by Maite Bezerra, principal analyst for software-defined vehicles at Wards Intelligence, included industry experts from Bosch, Stellantis, Toptal, and the Scalable Open Architecture for Embedded Edge (SOAFEE) industry group, which is working with automakers to expedite development of software-defined vehicles. SOAFEE aims to create an open source vehicle platform using cloud-native architecture that supports multiple hardware configurations. 'SOAFEE is really kind of more about bringing some of the modern software techniques to automotive software development,' said panelist Robert Day, the group's governing body representative. 'Over the last couple or three years, people are actually starting to do their development in the cloud using the tools, technologies and methodologies that are well developed and well used in cloud development.' Although adopting a cloud-based software development approach is a common practice for developers working in the tech space, it's an entirely new field for some legacy automakers. "The problem is the car is not the cloud,' said Day. 'It has things like safety and things like mutual physicality, heterogeneous computing.' The software development challenges for automakers also create the need for OEMs to recruit top talent to integrate the technology into next-generation vehicles, often from outside of the industry. Some companies are providing services to expedite such recruitment. For example, Toptal operates a freelancing platform that connects companies with in-demand software engineers and other technology specialists. 'We have a lot of partners in the automotive space,' said panelist Paul Timmermann, VP of product at Toptal. Stellantis is one of the automakers encountering the challenges of shifting towards SDVs for its future vehicles. "We [automakers] are always hardware first, and now the switch is happening to, you know, software, and then comes the hardware," said panelist Sangeeta Theru, director of virtual validation platforms at Stellantis. 'Tools, processes…everything is changing,' she said. Theru also highlighted the importance of training internal teams at Stellantis, adding that the automaker recently launched "big training on AWS cloud and architecture' for employees. 'There was a lot of effort in upskilling and training internal people,' she said. A major driver of increasing vehicle complexity is automakers launching more advanced driver assist systems and autonomous driving functionality using AI-powered software, according to the panelists. Vehicles with automated driving capabilities, for example, are equipped with dozens of cameras and sensors, generating "many, many terabytes of data" for a single car, scaling to "well beyond petabytes" across large fleets, explained panelist Steven Miller, product management of ADAS and technical expert at Bosch. 'Clearly you're not going to upload all of that data,' he said. 'The other even harder data problem is okay, what's the right data to upload to the cloud?' With rollout of more advanced autonomous driving features, automakers need to be adept at processing and merging extremely large data sets. One of these challenges is processing high volumes of vehicle data in real-time, as well as making it more manageable to transfer to and from the cloud. Automakers must also decide which vehicle data to upload to the cloud to train AI models. Therefore, the panelists emphasized the need for OEMs to create efficient data pipelines to manage this complexity. The panelists also foresee AI being integrated into other vehicle systems, such as remote diagnostics and infotainment. The use of AI will also likely extend to corporate organizational processes. "This is one of the most transformational shifts that we are seeing in the automotive industry," said Bezerra. The panel discussion also delved into automakers' adopting open source software with a higher level of standardization to reduce development times and costs. In November 2024, Panasonic Automotive Systems and Arm announced a collaboration to standardize automotive architecture. The two companies said they recognized the need for the industry to shift from a hardware-centric to a software-first development model to address challenges created by high-cost, vendor-specific proprietary interfaces for vehicles. While the use of open source automotive software has traditionally been met with caution due to safety and liability concerns, an April 2025 report from the Eclipse Foundation found a significant jump in industry appetite to use it for safety-critical vehicle systems. According to the report, 79% of automotive software professionals currently use open source tools and/or in-vehicle software for development, and the number of users actively contributing to open source projects increased by 4% from last year. The big advantage of open source is it provides a standard between companies, explained Day. 'If you're starting to use open standard or open source, it makes that collaboration easier,' he said. Day also highlighted another long-term strategy decision facing OEMs. "What would you choose to open source first? What would you actually keep in-house?" he said. Despite the prospects of adopting open source software for vehicles, the panelists acknowledged that some key areas needed more attention, including cybersecurity. This area is even more critical for automated driving and connected infotainment systems that can be used to pay for goods and services, such as EV charging sessions. Day raised a critical point about security. 'I don't think it's placed enough attention to, and certainly don't think [automakers] spend enough money on it,' he said. According to chipmaker Arm, a modern vehicle can have up to 650 million lines of code, and this number will only increase in the future. But software will revolutionize how drivers interact with their vehicles and redefine the relationship between OEMs and vehicle owners, according to the company.

If I Could Buy Only 1 Artificial Intelligence Stock Over the Next Year, Amazon Would Be It, but Here's the Key Reason
There are several reasons to like Amazon as a long-term investment right now. AWS could be a particularly massive growth driver for the rest of the decade and beyond. The cloud computing business could drive market-beating performance all by itself. 10 stocks we like better than Amazon › There are some excellent artificial intelligence (AI) stocks you can buy right now. However, my favorite -- and largest AI play in my own portfolio -- is Amazon (NASDAQ: AMZN). To be sure, there are a lot of reasons why I like Amazon as a long-term investment. E-commerce still represents less than one-fifth of all U.S. retail, and there's massive international expansion potential for the business, just to name a few pluses. But the No. 1 reason I love the stock is Amazon Web Services (AWS) and its potential to drive profits higher over the next decade. AWS makes up less than 20% of Amazon's revenue, but it's the fastest-growing, most profitable part of the company. Despite accounting for less than one-fifth of sales, as noted, AWS was responsible for 63% of the company's operating income in the first quarter. However, this could be just the beginning. The global cloud computing market is expected to roughly triple in size by 2030, compared with 2024 levels. Assuming AWS simply maintains its current market share, this means that AWS revenue could rise from $107.6 billion in 2024 to about $342 billion in 2030. If Amazon can maintain its current operating margin for AWS (it's likely the margin will improve as the business scales), this would result in about $87 billion in additional annual operating income just from AWS. This alone would likely drive excellent stock returns -- and that's on top of any value added through profit increases from the retail side. Before you buy stock in Amazon, consider this: The Motley Fool Stock Advisor analyst team just identified what they believe are the for investors to buy now… and Amazon wasn't one of them.
