Insider Brief Alice & Bob has proposed a five-part framework for evaluating logical qubit claims, arguing that the industry needs a common standard to assess progress toward fault-tolerant quantum computing. The framework evaluates whether a logical qubit outperforms physical qubits, improves as error-correction resources scale, operates across enough correction cycles, avoids post-selection, and remains stable … Read more
Insider Brief SPACs are regaining traction as a financing vehicle for deep-tech companies, with supporters arguing that their structure is well suited to quantum computing firms that require large amounts of capital and face long commercialization timelines. Unlike traditional IPOs, SPAC mergers allow companies to provide forward-looking financial projections and establish valuation earlier in the … Read more

Agentic AI is now a core part of the engineering process, driving massive execution leverage and helping us generate more code than ever before. Yet, a difficult question I’ve increasingly heard from business leaders is: if we’re shipping code faster than ever, why aren’t our products improving at the same rate?The reason is that writing … Read more
Our system did one thing, and it did it well: It turned natural-language questions into API calls.The users were analysts, account managers, and operations leads. They knew what data they needed, but assembling it manually meant pulling from four dashboards, two BI tools, and a Salesforce report builder. With our system, they typed the request … Read more
For three years, Microsoft’s artificial intelligence story has been inseparable from OpenAI. The partnership — cemented by a cumulative investment exceeding $13 billion — gave Microsoft early access to the most advanced AI models on the planet, catapulting its Copilot products into the enterprise mainstream and adding hundreds of billions of dollars to its market … Read more
Microsoft used its Build 2026 conference this week to push a clear message: agents are rapidly moving into production throughout enterprise systems, and the winning platform will be the one that gives them reliable context, governance, identity, memory — and secure access to enterprise data. The company announced Microsoft IQ as a context layer across … Read more
When someone on a team corrects an AI agent — better prompts, better feedback, better context — that improvement disappears the moment a colleague opens the same tool. The correction doesn’t transfer, and the next person starts from zero.The problem compounds in multi-agent workflows, where teams expect agents to share context across users and tasks. … Read more
Insider Brief SEALSQ has expanded its quantum strategy through investments in multiple quantum computing companies while continuing to develop post-quantum semiconductor and security products. The company is pursuing a multi-modality investment approach spanning several quantum hardware architectures rather than focusing on a single qubit technology. SEALSQ said it aims to connect its post-quantum security portfolio … Read more
Meta’s AI support agent bound recovery emails to accounts for whoever asked, and SOCs never saw an alert. An authorized agent writes a log of legitimate transactions, so nothing in the detection stack fired. Attackers asked the bot to make the change, took the one-time code it sent, and ran the password reset, 404 Media … Read more
