SandboxAQ Secures Investment from Google, Nvidia, and Others

SandboxAQ, an Artificial Intelligence and quantum computing startup, raises additional funding from major tech players including Google and Nvidia.

Alphabet spinoff SandboxAQ, an emerging startup in the Artificial Intelligence and quantum computing sector, has secured additional investment from major tech giants like Google and Nvidia. The company, focusing on developing commercial products for sectors such as telecom and healthcare, is channeling its efforts into combining the power of Artificial Intelligence and quantum computing.

SandboxAQ aims to leverage the synergies between AI and quantum technologies to enhance products in computationally demanding industries. The recent Series E raise features key investors such as Ray Dalio and firms like Horizon Kinetics and BNP Paribas. These funds will further power SandboxAQ´s mission to create enterprise software tools and cybersecurity solutions related to quantum computing.

Alphabet initially spun off SandboxAQ from its internal quantum tech group in March 2022. Since then, the company has attracted significant investment from entities including Breyer Capital and T. Rowe Price Associates, augmenting its status as a formidable player in both quantum and AI domains.

Report finds California creative job losses are not driven by Artificial Intelligence

New research from Otis College of Art and Design finds California’s recent creative industry job losses stem from cost pressures and structural shifts, not direct worker displacement by generative Artificial Intelligence. The technology is changing workflows and expectations, but it is largely replacing tasks rather than entire jobs.

U.S. senators propose broader chip tool export ban for Chinese firms

A bipartisan proposal in the U.S. Senate would shift semiconductor equipment controls from specific fabs to targeted Chinese companies and their affiliates. The measure is aimed at cutting off access to advanced lithography and other wafer fabrication tools for firms such as Huawei, SMIC, YMTC, CXMT, and Hua Hong.

Trump executive order targets state Artificial Intelligence laws

Executive Order 14365 lays out a federal strategy to discourage, challenge, and potentially preempt state Artificial Intelligence laws viewed as burdensome. Employers are advised to keep complying with current state and local rules while preparing for regulatory uncertainty in 2026.

Who decides how America uses Artificial Intelligence in war

Stanford experts are divided over how the United States should govern Artificial Intelligence in defense, surveillance, and warfare. Their views converge on one point: decisions with such high stakes cannot be left to companies alone.

GPUBreach bypasses IOMMU on GDDR6-based NVIDIA GPUs

Researchers from the University of Toronto describe GPUBreach, a rowhammer attack against GDDR6-based NVIDIA GPUs that can bypass IOMMU protections. The technique enables CPU-side privilege escalation by abusing trusted GPU driver behavior on the host system.
