Insider Brief Researchers developed QuPepFold, a hybrid quantum-classical software package for exploring the low-energy structures of short peptides. The system performed well on six- and seven-residue peptides, but its success rate fell sharply as sequences approached 10 residues. The study did not demonstrate a quantum advantage, and the package remains limited by simplified protein models, … Read more
Insider Brief A PolyU-led team developed a 2D tunnelling transistor that could support faster, more energy-efficient computing and AI chips. The Bi/InSe device operated below the conventional 60-millivolt switching limit across six orders of magnitude while requiring a gate-voltage range of just 160 millivolts. The transistor combined high output current with a strong ON/OFF ratio … Read more
Insider Brief Rep. Nick Langworthy introduced the American Quantum Competitiveness Act to strengthen U.S. quantum commercialization, manufacturing and domestic supply chains. The bill would designate the Commerce Department as the federal lead for commercial quantum technology and require a national competitiveness strategy. The legislation emphasizes reducing dependence on foreign adversaries and supporting advanced manufacturing along … Read more
Insider Brief The MIT Quantum Initiative has launched a postdoctoral fellowship program to support interdisciplinary quantum research and develop early-career scientific leaders. The Moore Foundation-backed program will cover fields including quantum computing, sensing, materials, simulation and networks, as well as links with AI, biology and Earth science. The inaugural fellows will begin in the 2026 … Read more
The viral fervor we saw earlier this year around OpenClaw, the open source AI harness that turns powerful language models into autonomous workers the user can message via their favorite channels (Telegram, iMessage, WhatsApp, Discord etc), has cooled off substantially from its peak in March 2026.But over the weekend, OpenClaw’s creator Peter Steinberger and current … Read more
The Iran war represents the second commodities price shock in five year.The narrative that heightened geopolitical tensions threaten the industrial ba
Insider Brief Diraq and Equinix plan to install the first silicon spin quantum computer in a shared commercial data center in Sydney in October 2026. The eight-qubit system will fit alongside conventional servers, consume less than 20 kilowatts and support upgrades through chip replacement without changes to the surrounding infrastructure. The companies will test the … Read more
Insider Brief Anyon Systems and KMT Technologies have formed a strategic partnership to expand the international deployment of Anyon’s superconducting quantum computing systems. KMT will serve as Anyon’s exclusive representative and distributor in selected international markets and provide installation, integration, service and support. The partnership combines Anyon’s quantum computing technology with Matrix Group’s expertise in … Read more
If you look at the commit histories of modern data platforms, something profound has shifted over the last two years. The friction of writing syntax has collapsed. With Cursor, Claude Code, and agentic workflows now living inside our Docker containers and IDEs, generating the first implementation of a distributed streaming pipeline or a complex API … Read more
Presented by BoxIdentity and permissions are no longer enough to secure enterprise AI agents. They govern what an agent can reach, not how it behaves once it starts working on its own, and an autonomous agent can turn legitimate access of enterprise data into unintended action in seconds. That gap is pushing enterprise AI security … Read more
