🔒 China unveils quantum-speed breakthrough China’s CHIPX lab claims to have built the first scalable, industrial-grade optical quantum chip that can run certain AI workloads up to 1,000× faster than Nvidia GPUs. The photonic chip packs over 1,000 optical components onto a 6-inch wafer, scales to “1 million qubits,” and can be deployed in weeks instead of months - though production remains limited at ~12,000 wafers per year. If the performance claims hold, it marks a major step in China’s race for quantum advantage, as Western firms like Nvidia push similar optical-quantum tech but haven’t yet shown comparable scale!

Elon Musk: "We see a path to putting 100 gigawatts per year of solar-powered AI satellite into orbit. And having this be actually the lowest cost way to power and operate AI at a very large scale For reference, the United States consumes roughly 460 gigawatts on average per year. Because the average power load in the US is 460 gigawatts" AI Post 🪙 | Our X 🥇

⚠️ An era is coming to an end. Tim Cook is stepping down. After Steve Jobs' death from cancer, Tim Cook took over the leadership of Apple and built it into the major tech company it is today. Cook is often criticized for lacking the creativity and genius of a Steve Jobs—and that's certainly true. What distinguishes Tim Cook is his brilliance in expanding supply chains and transforming Apple into the global manufacturing giant it is today; lean, efficient processes. And that is Cook's genius. Therefore, the criticism that simply compares him to Jobs is too simplistic. With Cook's departure, an era is coming to an end. It remains to be seen who will succeed him. "The company is unlikely to name a new CEO before its next earnings report in late January, which covers the critical holiday period.” AI Post 🪙 | Our X 🥇

Elon: Neuralink patients talk almost as fast as anyone else now "So Neuralink is also making good progress. Now has over 10 patients with Neuralink implants. And these people who didn't have the ability to move their arms or legs, in some cases, were completely locked in, like Stephen Hawking. And they can now communicate, I think, as quickly or almost as quickly as we're communicating right now. Which is very cool, and that's gonna continue to accelerate." AI Post 🪙 | Our X 🥇

⚡️ Google pours $40B into Texas to build the AI infrastructure of the future Google is committing $40B through 2027 to expand its Cloud and AI footprint across Texas, including new data centers in Armstrong and Haskell counties and massive investment into energy resilience. What’s happening • Building large-scale cloud + AI data centers across Texas • Strengthening the state’s energy capacity to handle next-gen compute demand • Funding programs to double the pipeline of new Texas electricians needed for the AI boom • Thousands of new jobs expected across construction, operations, and energy sectors This is less a regional bet and more a signal of the fierce race to secure energy and talent for the next wave of AI infrastructure.

🔔 Big breakthrough in scientific reasoning New AI system - SciAgent exceeds human gold medalists on several Science Olympiads, using one unified architecture. There are no discipline specific modules. Just pure cross domain scientific reasoning. The implications for research automation and multi domain AI reasoning are enormous. AI Post 🪙 | Our X 🥇

💥 The next AI-triggered apocalypse might be started not by the U.S. or China but by a nuclear middle power Two new reports from AI Conjecture expand the usual AI-geopolitics forecasts. Until now, all scenarios focused only on the two AI superpowers. The new view adds middle powers and the picture gets much darker. The classic three doctrines 1. Dominance: First to advanced AI becomes permanently supreme. 2. Extinction: Superintelligence escapes control and wipes out humanity. 3. Replacement: AI accelerates progress but concentrates power dangerously. Scenario 4: Preemptive strike From RAND: A superpower fearing it’s losing the AGI race may launch a preemptive (even nuclear) attack to stop the rival before “superintelligence” is reached. Scenario 5: Middle-Power Coalition Taiwan, the Netherlands, South Korea and others could unite. They can’t win the AI race but they control key supply chains and could act as a stabilizing force to prevent superpower escalation. Scenario 6: Nuclear Middle Power A state with nukes but no chance in the AI race could set red lines for the U.S. and China: “Cross this AI threshold and we strike.” Extremely risky, a misread milestone becomes a global tripwire. Which scenario looks more likely? AI Post 🪙 | Our X 🥇

Home humanoid robots are getting closer. Shenzhen MindOne Robotics is testing their robot brain on the Unitree G1, and it looks like the G1 has already learned to do human-like household chores. Watering plants, moving packages, cleaning mattresses, tidying up, etc. AI Post 🪙 | Our X 🥇

⚠️ Amazing update: Scientists Have Created A Robot Eye With Better Sight Than Humans! Scientists at Georgia Tech have built a new robotic “eye” using a photoresponsive hydrogel lens that can focus without electricity. The lens can detect incredibly fine details - like the hair on an ant’s leg - thanks to light-driven swelling and shrinking of the hydrogel. This tech could transform soft robotics, medical tools, wearable devices, and even microscopes with its high precision and autonomous light-powered operation. Source. AI Post 🪙 | Our X 🥇

⚡️ Intelligence-per-Watt: The next frontier in AI efficiency A new paper from the Hazy Research team introduces a powerful idea, Intelligence-per-Watt (IPW) as the core metric for measuring how much “useful intelligence” a system delivers per unit of energy. Local AI is catching up fast: • Local models now handle ~89% of common chat and reasoning tasks, matching cloud models for most daily use cases. • Since 2023, their IPW has improved over 5×, showing explosive efficiency gains on-device. • This suggests a coming shift in AI inference — from cloud datacenters to local hardware like laptops, phones, and edge devices. Why it matters: • Energy: Local inference could massively cut data center power use. • Infrastructure: Less dependence on hyperscalers, more on efficient edge chips. • Control: Users and organizations regain autonomy over data and access. If compute-per-dollar defined the last AI era, intelligence-per-watt may define the next decentralizing AI while making it cleaner and more democratic. AI Post 🪙 | Our X 🥇

We will now be able to discover new drugs 1000s of times faster. MADD - Multi Agent Drug Discovery Orchestra, a multi agent AI system designed to massively accelerate the early stages of drug discovery, especially hit identification. It uses four cooperating agents to break down a user’s query, generate molecules, evaluate them, and return the best drug candidates. Across benchmarks and real case studies (e.g., Alzheimer’s, thromboxane inhibitors), MADD outperforms existing AI systems in accuracy, molecule quality, and the number of viable hits. It shows that agentic LLMs can run identification pipelines automatically, dramatically accelerating drug discovery. Source. AI Post 🪙 | Our X 🥇
