Downstream AI

*Hi,*

*Last Friday I was privileged to be invited to the ****SCX.ai (ASX:SCX)**** listing ceremony at the new ASX HQ on Martin place. The *[Picks and Shovels](https://www.investopedia.com/terms/p/pick-and-shovel-play.asp)* of AI have been the topic du jour for some time now, but as AI matures, downstream plays in my view will start to come into focus. SCX is a bit of both. Still very much on the hardware side, but shifting from building AI (training), to using AI (inference). If you’re a *[ where the puck is heading](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/where_the_puck_is_heading)*investor, it’s worth doing some work on ****SCX.ai (ASX:SCX)**** and ****Decidr (ASX:DAI)***

**Idea of the week: Alpha HPA (ASX:A4N) **is a forward looking** **semi-conductor play. AI is a tailwind, but even in absence of AI, material science as the next evolution in semiconductor design will drive growth in A4N. Last week the company signed** **New** **Letter of of intent for 1,400 tonnes of HPA from Speciality South Korean ceramics end-user. *As highlighted in our *[recent research](https://homodeus.one/research/report/alpha-hpa-a4n-ax-zero-not-all-9s-are-created-equal-foundation-research)* the surge in demand is very recent, but very real. Continues to rise increase, now tracking at 32% above Stage 2 capacity*

Source: [TNE](https://announcements.asx.com.au/asxpdf/20260819/pdf/072xjgh1x9dm4h.pdf) | [HSN](https://announcements.asx.com.au/asxpdf/20260819/pdf/072xf4wvtv5grt.pdf) HD View: A great opportunity for Stu. He’s done excellent work for TNE, and if he can replicate the success he’s contributed to TNE at HSN they’ll be off to the races. TNE positive outlook remains unchanged.

Source: [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/posts/oneviewhealthcare_chris-miller-and-i-are-excited-to-be-setting-activity-7495143368512032768-48DT) HD View: Oneview only announced its new revenue channel powering Epic MyChart Bedside TV in May this year. It’s great to see them attending UGM, showing support from Epic on the integration.

- Pro Medicus (ASX:PME) share price soars 12% on strong FY26 result: A key reason for the significant increase in statutory profit is its investment in 4DMedical (ASX: 4DX) , which has risen significantly since the start of FY26. Share price growth is added to Pro Medicus’ statutory net profit. Source: [Rask](https://www.raskmedia.com.au/2026/08/18/pro-medicus-asxpme-share-price-soars-12-on-strong-fy26-result/)
- Bots are starting to conspire with one another. Can they be stopped? Let’s be very clear about what OpenAI is saying: a group of AI models colluded for months, undetected by their maker, and hacked another company. To this day, OpenAI says it is not entirely sure what went wrong or how to remediate it. Source:[AFR](https://www.afr.com/technology/bots-are-starting-to-conspire-with-one-another-can-they-be-stopped-20260818-p60pia)
- FDA wants feedback on how to regulate generative AI in medicine: The U.S. Food and Drug Administration is mulling how to best regulate generative artificial intelligence in medicine and is seeking feedback from the public on the matter. Source: [Radiology Business](https://radiologybusiness.com/topics/artificial-intelligence/fda-wants-feedback-how-regulate-generative-ai-medicine)
- Trump nominates policy aide Overton to lead FDA: Trump on Wednesday nominated Heidi Overton, a top White House policy aide, as the next Food and Drug Administration commissioner. Source: [Biopharm Dive](https://www.biopharmadive.com/news/overton-fda-commissioner-trump-white-house-appointment-plans/828264/) HD View: Heidi Overton is viewed as being strongly pro-innovation, faster-approval agenda which should continue to be supportive for the likes of med-tech approvals (i.e. IMR , 4DX , EIQ , AYA , PME etc)
- Most FDA-cleared AI medical devices not tested on patient outcomes: Out of over 1,300 FDA-authorized AI medical devices, only three have been evaluated for their impact on patient outcomes like mortality, morbidity, or hospital readmissions. Source: [AuntMinnie](https://www.auntminnie.com/imaging-informatics/artificial-intelligence/article/15832887/most-fdacleared-ai-medical-devices-not-tested-on-patient-outcomes) HD View: this translates to a mere 0.2% being tested on patient-centred outcomes. Could this impact on AI FDA clearance going forward? Possibly. That said we do not see this as a huge risk for the likes of ASX:4DX or ASX:IMR which are replacing contrast and fluoroscopy procedures, which are clearly more detrimental to patient outcomes.
- Medicare works to speed up coverage for ‘breakthrough’ radiology devices: Experts have noted there often is a lag—at a median of nearly six years—between the FDA authorizing new products and Medicare granting payment. The RAPID pathway aims to allow the two agencies to collaborate earlier in product life cycles, generating evidence to more rapidly support decisions. Source: [Radiology Business](https://radiologybusiness.com/topics/healthcare-management/healthcare-policy/medicare-works-speed-coverage-breakthrough-radiology-devices) HD View: Of the med-tech names Imricor (ASX:IMR) the largest potential beneficiary of this news on AFL, VT and AF regulatory approvals (depending on pathway). Other sw/algo names (i.e. PME, EIQ, 4DX, AYA) less so for existing solutions, but potentially future (e.g. 4DMedical’s (ASX:4DX) XV Scanner)
- Mayo Clinic taps new CIO as academic medical center doubles down on AI: Bhaskara-Baba brings more than 25 years of tech experience to the role. He joins Mayo from Honeywell Aerospace and Defense, where he directed digital strategy and scaled the company’s artificial intelligence capabilities as CIO.

- Google’s AI debt machine lands with four brokers and a video link. Fresh from reportedly attracting $US115 billion ($162 billion) in bids for new bonds 10 days ago, Google and YouTube owner Alphabet rolled into Australia for this first time this week to ask for just one thing: mo’ money.

Both the NSW Data Centre NSW Data Centre Policy Framework and NSW Data Centre Guidelines aim to address rising electricity demand, water consumption, infrastructure funding, community impacts and the long-term role of data centres in supporting Australia’s AI and digital economy. Source: [ARN](https://www.arnnet.com.au/article/4210210/nsw-to-manage-data-centre-boom-with-new-planning-and-cost-measures.html) HD View: as we’ve mentioned in previous weeks the upcoming listing of SCX.ai (ASX:SCX) is a company directly addressing these issues with their dedicated SambaNova inferencing chips which consume 1/12th of the energy for inferencing and do not require water cooling.
