This @IonQ_Inc work is so exciting because these breakthroughs in hybrid quantum-AI aren’t just scientific milestones—they represent real, tangible solutions to pressing challenges across industries like healthcare, manufacturing, and finance. It’s incredibly rewarding to see our technology making an impact for customers.
Met with a dozen IT leaders from a range of industries last night and it’s clear that we’re seeing a shift of AI moving from just being about Assistants you chat with to Agents that go out and execute work for you.
In similar conversations just 6 months ago, the idea of AI Agents was fairly foreign in most organizations. Now it’s becoming more and more clear to companies that this is where a substantial portion of impact of AI is going to come from. It’s pretty insane how quickly this conversation has evolved.
Interestingly, many of the biggest use cases for AI Agents that companies have right now aren’t just replacing what existing work is already getting done. There’s certainly “I’d love to get people out of doing X manual process”, but there generally is a larger number of “what if we could finally do Y”. There’s a sense that AI Agents will let companies go and solve the long tail of problems they just didn’t get around to before, or never did that well at.
Interestingly, the demand for AI and AI Agents is coming from every direction. New employees are expecting a modern AI stack to work with, which puts pressure on the organization to modernize. Similarly, there’s a pressure from above and from within the business as companies have to figure out what it looks like to be AI-first in the future. Either way, these dynamics are being embraced quite energetically — even though there’s definitely a sense that things are moving faster than they ever have and it’s hard to keep up.
It’s also clear that agent interoperability will be critical, as enterprises are trying to figure out how cross-platform workflows will be handled in the future. No one wants to be stuck on a single rigid architecture that’s going to lock all their workflows into one approach. Agent-to-agent communications will clearly be a big part of solving this going forward.
We’re clearly still very early, with most enterprises only in the initial phases of exploring (and doing initial deployments of) Agents. But it’s clear that this will be *the* topic in the enterprise this year.
At $463 per share, $IONQ hits a $100B market cap.
At $4,630 per share, it’s a $1T company.
Whether you pay $40, $50, or $60 for it today won’t matter.
In 10 years, when it’s worth over a trillion dollars, your return will still be a jaw-dropping 7,616% (on the conservative side, buying it at $60).
Exciting news!!💥 IonQ invented a low-overhead approach for partial Quantum Error Correction.
A breakthrough towards running large apps on near-term quantum systems. This technique is an order of magnitude more efficient than the best error correction techniques
I used to think I was rational.
Then I read Daniel Kahneman's Nobel Prize-winning work on human decision-making.
He routinely asks 8 questions to expose cognitive traps you fall into daily.
Test yourself with these questions (it's the ultimate BS detector for your brain):
Why is NVIDIA's campus made of triangles? Of course, the triangle is the basic primitive of 3D graphics, where NVIDIA got its start.
But there is a deeper meaning: it is a physical instantiation of NVIDIA as a learning machine - and a warning against hubris. 1/5

This just came in.
I am sorry.
"It is with a heavy heart that I share with you the news of our loss,
My dear friend, Eyal Waldman, CEO and founder of Mellanox, lost his daughter.
Daniel and her partner, a former employee, who were killed in the horrific attack at the Peace Festival.."
Jensen Huang.
CEO of Nvidia.

During Huang's statement, he also informed about:
Jad Amer and Nabi Amer, two brothers working at Nvidia who lost their brother:
- Akram Amer (רס"ל) fell defending Israel while serving at the IDF.
- Or Avinathan, Employee of Nvidia (VLSI), was kidnapped by hamas together with his partner, Noa.

Waldman was one of the first CEOs in Israel to Employ Palestinians.
"We treated them like Israelis. Even today our hand is extended for peace."
Said on the same day he learnt about his daughter.
Just to let all of you know.
---
On the same interview, he said that on the last time they met she told him for the first time that they are about to get married.
And that he went by himself to find the car where it happened.
[And I won't share the details]

By this point:
Around 400 Nvidia employees were drafted.
Tens of thousands of Israel's tech sector are currently gearing up or scheduled to join over the next couple of days.
Including yours truly.
