China’s Photonic Chip Could Rewrite the AI Hardware Playbook—Here’s Why
China’s latest move in AI hardware is not another GPU, accelerator card, or custom ASIC. It is a photonic chip built on a 6‑inch thin‑film lithium niobate (TFLN) wafer, developed by CHIPX and Turing Quantum, and it is already running inside production data centers in China. The team claims up to 1,000× acceleration for specific…

Superalignment in Practice: How Enterprises Can Keep Advanced AI Aligned and Under Control
The emergence of advanced AI systems is forcing enterprises to confront a central question: can highly capable AI be reliably aligned with human and organizational values while remaining under robust human control? Superalignment is an emerging discipline focused on answering that question at scale—before AI systems reach or surpass human-level general intelligence. For technology and…

LLMs Burned Billions But Still Haven’t Built Another Tailwind
The core problem is that billions poured into large language models have mostly produced demos, not durable, compounding developer platforms. Tailwind CSS, by contrast, is a tiny, focused product that became infrastructure for front‑end work—and almost nothing in the LLM boom has matched that kind of pragmatic, enduring leverage. For all the money that has…

X could be banned in UK amid inappropriate AI images
The prospect of a major social platform being effectively banned in one of the world’s largest economies would have seemed unthinkable a few years ago. Yet that is precisely the scenario now hanging over Elon Musk’s X in the United Kingdom, as regulators and politicians react to a wave of non‑consensual, sexualised AI images generated…

App Stores, AI, and the Deepfake Reckoning: How Grok Forced a Showdown Over Platform Safety
When three U.S. senators ask Apple and Google to pull one of the world’s largest social platforms and its flagship AI product from their app stores, it is not just another content-moderation skirmish. It is a stress test of the entire platform governance model that Big Tech has spent the past decade selling to regulators,…

CES 2026 and the Rise of Physical AI: From Screens to the Real World
CES 2026 opened in Las Vegas with a subtle but consequential shift: artificial intelligence was no longer the headline product. Instead, AI quietly underpinned almost everything on display—from humanoid robots and autonomous logistics to smart homes, energy systems, industrial design, and live sports operations. The era of “AI-powered apps” gave way to something more material…

The AI PC Hype Meets Reality: Why Booming Sales Don’t Guarantee a Sustainable Market
AI PCs: When Hype Meets Reality AI PCs are selling in large and rapidly growing volumes, but much of today’s demand is being pulled forward by a looming Windows 10 deadline and vendor marketing rather than by clear, proven AI value for most buyers. The next three years will determine whether AI PCs become a…

Quantum AI Is Not Science Fiction—It’s Your Next Competitive Edge
The most exciting possibilities in quantum AI sit at the intersection of hard business problems that classical AI struggles with and quantum speedups that are finally becoming commercially relevant—especially in optimization, simulation, and secure data handling. For a tech/business audience, the real story is not sci‑fi general intelligence, but how hybrid quantum–classical AI workflows will…

AI Is Hitting a Wall. Quantum Computing Is the Next Infrastructure
Artificial intelligence is not slowing down—but it is running into hard limits. As models grow larger and more capable, their appetite for data and compute is increasing faster than our classical hardware can sustainably provide. When we hit that wall at scale, one technology will matter more than any incremental AI breakthrough: quantum computing. The…

Quantum’s Next Decade: How the Coming Wave of Quantum and AI Will Reshape Enterprise Technology and Competitive Advantage
Quantum computing has moved from thought experiment to strategic battleground, with direct implications for how industries will compute, discover drugs, secure data, and price risk over the next decade. What began as a theoretical challenge to Einstein’s intuition about the nature of reality is now a multibillion‑dollar race among technology giants, specialized startups, and governments…

How Quantum Computing Will Reshape AI and Enterprise Technology
Quantum computing is on a trajectory to become one of the most important accelerators of artificial intelligence, not by replacing classical systems, but by augmenting them in areas where today’s hardware and algorithms hit hard limits. Over the next decade, the organizations that understand and adopt hybrid quantum–AI workflows will gain a structural advantage in…

AI in 2026: Agentic Systems, Cloud Intelligence, and the Next Wave of Enterprise Transformation
Artificial intelligence is moving from experimentation to large-scale production, and the next two to three years will define how enterprises compete, automate, and innovate. By 2026, AI will be less about standalone models and more about composable, agentic systems tightly integrated with cloud, automation, and an emerging layer of physical and quantum capabilities. Organizations that…

When AI Meets Quantum: How the Next Computing Revolution Will Reshape Business, Risk, and Strategy
Artificial intelligence and quantum computing are each transforming computing on their own. When combined, they have the potential to reshape entire industries, redefine competitive advantage, and challenge longstanding assumptions about what machines can “know” and do. This merger is not science fiction. It is emerging today in research labs, hyperscale data centers, and early-stage deployments…

OpenAI’s Superalignment Strategy: Building AI That Can Safely Align Superintelligence
OpenAI has introduced a strategy it calls “Superalignment”: a technical and organizational roadmap for aligning future superintelligent AI systems with human values and intent. The effort is framed as both an existential safety problem and a near-term R&D program with a four‑year target to solve the core technical challenges of superintelligence alignment. For a tech…

OpenAI, AGI, and the Future of Work: How Not to Be Replaced in an AI-First Economy
OpenAI’s public perception has shifted dramatically over the past two years—from the undisputed flagship of the generative AI boom to a company facing structural, strategic, and reputational strain. For technology and business leaders, this is not just Silicon Valley drama; it is a case study in what happens when a hyper-scaled AI company collides with…

The $1 Million Password: How One Infostealer Campaign Exposed the Gap Between Enterprise Security Rhetoric and Reality
One criminal leveraged old stolen passwords and a lack of multi-factor authentication (MFA) to quietly breach roughly 50 large enterprises—showcasing that the weakest link in cloud security is not technology, but basic governance and accountability. This campaign, run by a threat actor known as Zestix or Sentap, is a case study in how organizations can…

The Ransomware Paradox: How 8,000 Attacks, State Hacks, and a 700,000-Record Breach Redefined Cyber Risk in 2025
Ransomware in 2025 reached a historic paradox: law enforcement notched some of its biggest victories against cybercriminals, yet the world endured more attacks, more disruption, and more victims than ever before. Instead of killing ransomware, the takedowns helped transform it—away from a few powerful “brands” and toward a fragmented, industrial-scale ecosystem that is harder to…
