qwant news | Sources: Trump delayed signing the AI EO because “he just hates regulation”; he spoke with Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, and David Sacks just prior to the delay AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. The U.S. Commerce Department announced a $2 billion package for nine quantum‑computing firms, taking minority equity stakes in each; IBM will receive roughly $1 billion to fund America’s first purpose‑built quantum‑chip foundry, while other recipients include GlobalFoundries, D‑Wave, Rigetti, Infleqtion, Atom Computing, PsiQuantum, Quantinuum and Diraq. The move, championed by Commerce Secretary Raimondo under the Trump administration, aims to cement U.S. leadership in quantum technology and spur a new era of domestic innovation.

Times of India | In 1943, Thomas Watson Jr. paused his career for WW II, but his mindset established the foundation for IBM’s tech empire AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Thomas Watson Jr.’s experience serving in World II forged a “we’ll learn fast” mindset that later became the cornerstone of IBM’s rise from a maker of business machines to a technology powerhouse. After graduating from Brown in 1937, he joined IBM, paused his career for military service, and returned to apply the urgency, adaptability, and tolerance for failure he gained in the army to the company’s culture. Historians credit his emphasis on rapid learning and flexible response to change—rather than reckless risk‑taking—as the engine that helped IBM continuously innovate, shift from traditional industrial systems to computing, and thrive amid the post‑war economic upheaval. This leadership philosophy, rooted in wartime disruption, continues to resonate with modern organizations that champion “fail fast, learn quickly.” Read more: https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/technology/tech-news/in-1943-thomas-watson-jr-paused-his-career-for-ww-ii-but-his-mindset-established-the-foundation-for-ibms-tech-empire/articleshow/130976103.cms #IBM #ThomasWatsonJr

Times of India | In 1950s, secretary Bette Nesmith Graham’s simple trick turned it into a million-dollar office tool AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Bette Nesmith Graham, a 1950s secretary, turned the simple observation that painters cover mistakes with paint into the invention of Liquid Paper correction fluid, drastically changing how typing errors were handled before computers. Frustrated by the labor‑intensive practice of retyping entire pages, she used a white liquid to mask ink errors, a practical solution that evolved into a home‑based manufacturing venture in 1956 and later a formal company. Despite early corporate resistance—IBM initially refused to market the product—Liquid Paper soon became an indispensable office supply, saving time, paper, and stress for typists nationwide. Graham’s innovation exemplifies how everyday problem‑solving can spark major entrepreneurial success, turning a personal fix into a multimillion‑dollar enterprise that reshaped office work until the digital age rendered it obsolete.

RE: https://weird.autos/@rootwyrm/116454052670417305 Well, IBM did name it after their founder, Thomas J. Watson, who was decorated by Hitler for services to the Third Reich, so maybe killing 50% of patients was a feature, not a bug? 🤷‍♂️ #IBM #Watson #Hitler #Holocaust #AI

Perhaps the most offensive thing to me of all, is that these LLM-loving AI-boosting idiots who perpetuate falsehoods like 'AI can read minds with fMRI' and 'AI can magically find vulnerabilities' and 'AI will cure cancer' is that we have known this is bullshit for years.

Years.

IBM Watson was launched as a magical cure-all in 2013. By 2022 it had been pulled from everything because despite years of 'refining' and 'training,' following it would have killed over 50% of patients. At it's best.

@bobulous@fosstodon.org See the widely publicized announcement by the developer of #MidnightBSD, which caused a lot of people, including me, into looking at the actual law. https://nitter.net/midnightbsd/status/2027101491211718765 The only people concerned with free software, apparently, as the bill made its way through the #California legislature, were Oakland Privacy, and they were only interested in 'gratis' free software on the Google and Apple Stores and the impacts on its development. The various committee analyses are on that legislature page, and they give the objectors's objections. I have yet to find a mention of BSDs, Linux-based operating systems, or even Unix. Goodness knows what #IBM is going to do about #RHEL and #RPM. Clearly they completely missed a very important lobbying opportunity. I wonder if the IBM legal people know about this even yet. @ariadne@social.treehouse.systems @RunxiYu@social.treehouse.systems @reallyflygreg@mstdn.ca @toddalio@mstdn.ca #USLaw #CaliforniaLaw #FreeSoftware #RedHat
