Today’s Brief Commentary: I’m pushing this newsletter out on a Sunday because two big industry events are coming up this week. The first is the NVIDIA GTC AI conference in San Jose, California. It runs from Monday the 17st through Friday the 21st. Of note at the GTC are the Quantum Day Conference Sessions on…
This is the 50th edition of this newsletter. I’m forgoing links today to discuss quantum computing vendor announcements and how they affect the trust in those vendors. Quantum Computing Announcements: It’s a Question of Trust Last week, Microsoft announced its Majorana-1 chip with great fanfare, common among major corporations with big marketing and communications budgets…
Today’s Brief Commentary: Microsoft made a lot of news this week in the quantum space via its giant marketing and communication machine with the introduction of its Majorana-1 chip. (All the big corporations have giant marketing and communication machines. Cf. Google, IBM, and NVIDIA.) On the same day, they introduced Muse, a generative AI “World…
Today’s Brief Commentary: I’m writing this at the tail end of my trip to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, to speak at the huge (> 100,000 people) LEAP / DeepFest 2025 event. It’s been a busy week, and yesterday, I was on the panel “Quantum Leap: The Intersection of Quantum Computing and AI.” Areiel Wolanow moderated, with…
Today’s Brief Commentary: At the Inside Quantum Technologies Quantum + AI conference in October, I gave the talk “Quantum AI: A Quantum Computing Industry Perspective.” In it, I included the following slide: Now, I was joking, sort of, but this notion of combining the two technologies is not new. While I was at IBM…

Commentary and a selection of the most important recent news, articles, and papers about AI. Today’s Brief Commentary The first link today is to an update from The Futurum Group about the advanced semiconductor AI accelerator market. Everything else is about Generative AI. It’s easy to say that GenAI is over-hyped (it is), dominates the…
Commentary and a selection of the most important recent news, articles, and papers about AI. Today’s Brief Commentary Two of the links today are related to an IBM survey of software developers regarding the creation of generative AI apps. TLDR: it’s not easy, and the tools aren’t great. Developers tend to build the tools they…
Commentary and a selection of the most important recent news, articles, and papers about AI. Today’s Brief Commentary Welcome to my first newsletter of 2025 focused on topics related to AI.

Commentary and a selection of the most important recent news, articles, and papers about AI. Today’s Brief Commentary In my last AI newsletter, I said it would be the last one before the new year. I should have expected that my links buffer would not stay empty for that long. I want to draw your…
Commentary and a selection of the most important recent news, articles, and papers about AI. Today’s Brief Commentary This is my last AI-focused newsletter for 2024. I don’t do roundups of the year’s most significant news and articles because I want to get on with 2025. I will leave those for others. Keep your hype…
Commentary and a selection of the most important recent news, articles, and papers about AI.

Commentary and a selection of the most important recent news, articles, and papers about AI. Today’s Brief Commentary Some of you have asked how I build this newsletter with the links and categorization. During the days before publishing an edition, I collect links to articles, papers, newsletters, and web pages on AI and quantum technologies…
Commentary and a selection of the most important recent news, articles, and papers about AI. Today’s Brief Commentary Today’s links give an idea of how AI is being used across the arts, academia, and business. That sounds better than saying they are a bunch of odds and ends as we approach the end of 2024,…
Commentary and a selection of the most important recent news, articles, and papers about AI. Today’s Brief Commentary As is often the case, NVIDIA is the center of attention today in the AI world.

Commentary and a selection of the most important recent news, articles, and papers about AI. Today’s Brief Commentary Large Language Models (LLMs) don’t continuously learn, and David Linthicum covers this ground well in his YouTube video in the Generative AI and Models section. I strongly recommend that you watch it. I think today’s LLM +…
Commentary and a selection of the most important recent news, articles, and papers about AI. Today’s Brief Commentary As I’ve mentioned before, discussions about agentic AI are accelerating rapidly.
