MIT’s new lidar chip could give self-driving cars a wider view
In tests, the system sharply reduced interference while steering a single precise beam across a broad field of view. Their…
Agentic orchestration: Enterprise AI organizations have a deployment problem, not a platform problem — and most are calling chatbots agents
As with orchestration maturity, fiscal control is an area where the operational reality lags the ambition: agents are moving toward…
The agent evaluation gap: Enterprise AI organizations have a reality-alignment problem, not a coverage problem — and most are shipping to production anyway
Read against Finding 1, that is the report's quietest contradiction: at the same moment two-thirds of enterprises are engineering the…
The AI context gap: Enterprise AI organizations have a trust problem, not a retrieval problem — and most are still building the fix
Our most recent direct measurement of fine-tuning comes from our April–May survey wave (a separate survey, n=136), where fine-tuning capabilities…
The agent security gap: 54% of enterprises have already had an AI agent incident, and most still let agents share credentials
The answer favors the model providers and hyperscalers over the dedicated security vendors.Enterprises are securing agents with tools that came…
The AI compute gap: Enterprises are buying infrastructure faster than they can measure what it costs
The answer is a well-known but rarely quantified inefficiency.Disclosure: Band percentages count every selection against all 107 qualified respondents; 14…
Alan Turing's biggest AI assumption may have been wrong
He believes this makes true human-level artificial intellect impossible, regardless of how large language models become. A new book claims…
Scientists discovered the brain doesn't make decisions the way we thought
This more dynamic view of brain function could help engineers design future artificial intellect systems that think more like biological…
Quantum mechanics once baffled scientists. Now it's changing the world
Now researchers are pushing its boundaries even further, with potential breakthroughs in energy, medicine, computing, and our understanding of the…
