[NVIDIA AI Infrastructure @NVIDIAAIInfra]

Quantum computers have a noise problem, and some of the world’s most powerful supercomputers are helping us tackle it.

Our researchers used 8,192 NVIDIA Grace Hopper Superchips at @fzj_jsc to test a leading fault-tolerance approach at record scale, so designers can refine quantum hardware before it’s built.

[Intel @intel]

Intel announced it has entered into an agreement to acquire @ClassiqTech to advance scalable quantum computing.

Combining Intel’s quantum software platform, silicon spin-qubit technology and advanced manufacturing expertise with Classiq’s automated quantum algorithm synthesis platform to help create a full-stack quantum computing platform, while continuing to support a modality-and hardware-agnostic software solution that enables an open and collaborative quantum software ecosystem - https://t.co/0hn4IaHydb

[Lip-Bu Tan @LipBuTan1]

Today, we announced that @intel has entered into an agreement to acquire @ClassiqTech, a recognized pioneer in quantum computing software and algorithms, based in Tel Aviv, Israel. This marks a transformational moment for Intel’s quantum computing group, as we establish a new Quantum Computing Business. With Classiq, Intel will become a full-stack quantum solutions provider and add QPUs to our already diverse compute platform portfolio spanning CPUs, GPUs and ASICs.

Super excited to welcome Nir Minerbi, Amir Naveh, Yehuda Naveh, and the talented Classiq team to Intel!

so anthropic is basically breakeven, revenue growing 10x per year and the headline about $80B losses is just bc they owe investors stock (and their stock has gone up so much it is a like short position from an accounting perspective)

and they are sitting on fable 5.5

BREAKING: the UK government publishes official rules on how to use AI:

1. Ask first if you really need to use AI

2. Check if a spreadsheet can do the job before using AI

3. Choose the worst model possible so it uses less energy

4. Keep prompts short to reduce the environmental impact

5. In general, use AI only when necessary, as a climate-saving measure

With a mindset like this, we should accept the UK back into the European Union

[Social Capital @socialcapital]

2 hours ago, Anthropic filed for an IPO.

We went through the S-1 and broke it down in 6 charts:

[Citrini @citrini]

“As of June 30, 2026, we hadraised an aggregate of  $141.1 billion of capital and had cash and cash equivalents of  $112.4 billion and short- term investments of $19.3 billion”

I think Anthropic might be okay for a little while tbh.

🇦🇪 JUST IN: Robinhood secures Dubai regulatory approval for its Middle East expansion, choosing DIFC as its regional headquarters ahead of a planned 2027 launch.

[CoinMarketCap @CoinMarketCap]

LATEST: 🇦🇪 The UAE Ministry of Interior says a 30-country operation with INTERPOL and 13 private firms identified over $39B in funds and crypto linked to scam activity, producing more than 960 arrests and raids on 29 fraud centers.

no surprise, every crypto vc firm has done this privately if not publicly yet

"crypto" so intertwined with every other frontier technology area now and the word so associated with historically unserious people that it no longer makes sense for any vc to define as such

it's a limiting and inaccurate moniker just as many great vc firms outgrew "web" and "mobile" and "saas" and "fintech" brands / origins. the best investment firms are often born from emergent trends and expand from that wedge

in practice, not much changes in terms of how anyone invests, if you were actually pivoting at this moment, you would have missed at least 18 months of the most investable opportunities at the intersection of blockchain, ai and markets

[Marathon Fusion @MarathonFusion]

Last month, we demonstrated high-rate alchemy: turning mercury into real, stable gold, beating CERN’s record by a factor of 10.

Last week, we enriched isotopes in the world’s most powerful plasma centrifuge, beating the Soviet record that stood for 40 years.

Now, we’re building a fusion reactor in San Francisco to achieve record power density.

[OpenAI @OpenAI]

OpenAI models helped researchers—operating as part of our Patch the Planet initiative—discover critical security flaws in PHP, an open-source programming language used to run an estimated 70% of websites.

Over the past two months, we led a coalition of maintainers, researchers, and security providers to prepare fixes and protections ahead of disclosure. This duration was necessary because the fix was quite intricate and required a major change to the PHP engine. Every site using PHP can now safely upgrade their version to stay secure, in addition to applying mitigations from various security vendors.

Due to the severity of these flaws and PHP’s widespread use, we consider this bug to be one of the most impactful vulnerabilities in recent memory. It also marks a new phase, where AI can find security bugs with internet-scale impact.

This is an example of the Defender’s Window in action: to our knowledge, frontier AI was able to find this vulnerability ahead of attackers, giving defenders time to prepare.

GPT-Rosalind surfaced a new lead for drug discovery: could restoring cholesterol transport protect neurons from degeneration?

DCTN1 is a gene linked to Perry syndrome, a rare neurodegenerative disorder. In mouse-brain data, disrupting it increased expression of genes involved in making cholesterol. GPT-Rosalind suggested a possible explanation: cholesterol may not be reaching where neurons need it.

That gives scientists a specific mechanism to test and, if confirmed, a direction for developing new treatments for neurodegenerative disorders.

With @perturbai_tx and @scrippsresearch, a team of thousands of GPT-Rosalind agents worked in parallel, connecting gene-expression results from millions of mouse brain cells with scientific literature in just 32 minutes. We’re now expanding this collaboration to identify new drug targets.
