The model was developed by the Chinese AI startup DeepSeek, which claims that R1 matches or even surpasses OpenAI’s ChatGPT o1 on multiple key benchmarks but operates at a fraction of the cost.

On top of technological supremacy, the quantum race could reshape the very nature of international relations and global power dynamics Imagine a world where encrypted data is no longer secure, medical advancements are accelerating and governments compete for power in an unseen realm.

DeepSeek AI, favored by investors over ChatGPT, uses rapid advancements with cheaper chips as U.S. tech restrictions fuel China’s AI innovation.

Advances like these lead me to believe that useful quantum computing is inevitable and increasingly imminent. And that’s good news, because the hope is that they will be able to perform calculations that no amount of AI or classical computation could ever achieve.

Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang may have said that "very useful quantum computers" are probably still 20 years away, but his company is also hedging its bets

Quantum computing has the potential of being the next big innovation. At the right size and the right price, it might even be investable.

President Joe Biden issued an executive order Thursday aimed at strengthening U.S. cybersecurity defenses and cracking down on foreign hackers targeting critical infrastructure.

As AI research and development continue, a recent breakthrough has emerged in the equally transformative field of quantum computing.

Developments in quantum computing highlight the risk to financial institutions and national security if new encryption measures aren't developed.

A rising interest in high-innovation themes is driving the tech continuum, with a focus on AI and a transition into next-generation computing and communications in Asia, Bloomberg Intelligence analysis shows.

The Swiss startup has found a way to allow qubits to move in all spatial directions like an aeroplane, instead of like cars on a road.
