IBM just bought a quantum bet it doesn’t build. Days later, the payoff hit Nature.

Six days ago, IBM agreed to buy a quantum-computing lab that builds a kind of qubit IBM does not. This week, the lab showed the world why. HRL Laboratories published a result in Nature on Wednesday: a silicon quantum processor that, in effect, runs itself. The Malibu research house is jointly owned by Boeing and […]

The AI race built faster chips. Now the chips are too fast for their own wires.

For three years, the AI race has been a race for faster chips. Eliyan just became a $1bn company by pointing out that the chips are now too fast for their own wires. The Santa Clara startup said it closed an oversubscribed $145m Series C at a $1bn valuation, making it a unicorn, the company […]

This Cambridge startup is building a ‘foundation model’ for the chest to speed drug trials

Most AI imaging startups build one model per disease. A Cambridge company has raised $20m to build a single model for the whole chest. Then it can spin the rest out of that. Qureight makes AI imaging tools for lung and heart clinical trials. It closed a $20m Series B led by Molten Ventures, the […]

DeepMind won a Nobel for AlphaFold. Then it broke up the team.

Less than a year ago, AlphaFold won Google DeepMind a Nobel Prize. Now DeepMind has taken the team that built it apart. The lab has reassigned most of the original AlphaFold-paper authors over the past year, the Financial Times reported. Nearly a quarter of them have left the company altogether. DeepMind confirmed the moves, and […]

AI agents can browse the web. Now they need a way to pay for it.

For the past two years, the AI industry has focused on making models smarter. Every new release promises better reasoning, longer context windows, or more capable autonomous agents. Increasingly, people assume that software won’t just answer questions; it will also complete tasks for us. This raises a concern that has received far less attention: what […]

Modus Raises $10M Seed Led by Insight Partners as Enterprise AI Creates Demand for a New Context Layer

The enterprise AI market is moving into a new phase. As companies shift from experimenting with individual AI applications to deploying agents across business operations, the challenge is increasingly less about giving models access to information and more about helping them understand which information actually matters. That is the problem Modus is targeting as it […]

Claude found mathematical flaws in two cryptographic algorithms that years of expert review missed

Anthropic announced on Monday that Claude Mythos Preview has discovered mathematical weaknesses in two cryptographic algorithms. The first substantially weakens HAWK, a post-quantum digital signature scheme under review by NIST, by cutting its effective key strength in half. The second improves the best-known attack on seven-round AES, the most widely used symmetric cipher, by 200-800x. […]

Only 27% of US hospitals can run an EEG. Epitel raised $26m for the rest

Epitel has raised $26m in a Series B round to expand a wireless EEG system that patients wear at home. Catalyst Health Ventures and Genoa Ventures co-led the round. The Salt Lake City company says it will spend the money on sales, marketing and distribution rather than research. The gap it is aiming at One […]

Australia’s world-first data centre rules need every state to agree. Two just said no.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s proposed national environmental and energy controls for the country’s A$150 billion data centre pipeline hit their first obstacle on Tuesday, when two jurisdictions declined to back them. Federal, state and territory energy ministers met virtually to discuss the plan, and Queensland and the Northern Territory opposed most of the measures, […]
