The Road Ahead for Datacenter Compute Engines: The CPUs

It is often said that companies – particularly large companies with enormous IT budgets – do not buy products, they buy roadmaps. No one wants to go to the trouble of optimizing software for something that turns out to be a one-off product, forcing them to port code and tune it for another device.

OpenAI launches o3-mini, still more expensive than DeepSeek R1

OpenAI has launched o3-mini, its most cost-efficient AI model today. This model, designed as a small reasoning tool, is available on ChatGPT and through OpenAI’s API and is expected to excel in tasks related to science, mathematics, and coding. The company introduced almost a week later than DeepSeek, the Chinese model everybody’s talking about recently as they launched DeepSeek R1, which is almost 100x cheaper via API and free on its chat app.

Generative AI And Human-Robot Interaction: Implications and Future Agenda for Business, Society and Ethics

HRI and generative AI raise ethical and regulatory concerns. This paper explores the complex relationship between humans and generative AI models like ChatGPT. Along with rational empathy, personification, and advanced linguistics, the study predicts generative AI will become popular. However, these models blur human-robot boundaries, raising moral and philosophical issues. This study extrapolates HRI trends and explains how generative AI's technical aspects make it more effective than rule-based AI. A research agenda for AI optimization in education, entertainment, and healthcare is presented.

QuEra: Quantum Budgets to Grow by 20%

Research from neutral-atom quantum coputing company QuEra Computing indicates global budgets for quantum applications projected to rise nearly 20 percent in 2025, according to the company. 

 The findings show that while high costs, talent gaps, and uncertainty around ROI remain significant barriers, 65% of respondents feel prepared to adopt quantum within the next two to three years, while only 21% say they are not yet ready to benefit from quantum technology, QuEra said. The findings were published today as part of QuEra’s Quantum Readiness Report 2025 and survey conducted with over 750 quantum computing academics, scientists and professionals across the globe.
