Canva introduced “Canva Craft”, its first frontier image‑generation model, moving Canva to the world’s second‑most advanced AI lab for image generation on DesignArena’s leaderboard.

- 2 vendor‑appliance servers
- 1 forgotten employee‑directory server (2016)
- 1 server named “PHP‑OLD‑DO‑NOT‑TOU…”.
- Insider Loops
- Never Search Alone
- AI Practice Copilot
