According to Counterpoint Research’s newly released Q3 2026 Global Storage Market Tracking Report, driven by robust demand for AI accelerators and data centers as well as rising prices, DRAM revenue in Q3 2026 surged nearly fivefold year-over-year. The research firm noted the current market is in a price-driven supercycle, not a shipment-driven one. This quarter, DRAM bit shipments grew only around 4%, but market revenue neared $200 billion, roughly five times the figure from the same period last year. AI has transformed storage from a commodity into a scarce, high-value resource; buyers now compete for supply security rather than engaging in repeated price negotiations. With prices continuing to climb, suppliers are expected to hit a new profit high next quarter.

Beating AI Express News: Perplexity has officially launched Teammates, an AI Agent tool designed to handle specific tasks long-term like human employees. CEO Aravind Srinivas revealed that roughly 10,000 AI Teammates have been created internally at the company over the past 30 days—20 times the total number of its human staff. Built on Perplexity Computer, Teammates lets users assign roles, goals, and permissions to the AI, which then continuously tracks work progress, proactively identifies issues, and uses tools to address them. Multiple Teammates can also divide tasks among themselves and communicate with human colleagues via Slack. For instance, a sales Agent can spot that a customer hasn’t placed an order for a long time, automatically investigate the cause, and prepare a follow-up plan. A development Agent, upon finding a website bug, can pass the task to another Agent to write the fix code. Each Agent has an independent workspace, retaining project memory and task history, allowing users to check progress, adjust direction, or take over operations at any time. The product has been in development for a long time: Business Insider exposed Perplexity’s internal Teammate tool back in July, when it was mainly used for software engineering tasks like bug fixing and system monitoring. Now, it has expanded to cover marketing, sales, customer service, and operations, adding long-term task management and cross-Agent collaboration features. Teammates is currently available as a research preview to Perplexity’s $200/month Max subscription users, with initial web support, and native mobile and desktop versions set to launch later.
