AI Dashcams Boost Trucker Safety, Trigger Privacy Concerns

AI-powered dashcams are reshaping the trucking industry, improving road safety and fleet efficiency. However, their widespread use also raises privacy concerns for truck drivers and other road users. These AI-driven cameras use cutting-edge computer vision tech to monitor driving behavior. Inward-facing cameras track distractions, driver fatigue, seatbelt use, and even smoking, while outward-facing cameras can detect rolling stops, possible collisions, and risky lane changes. These systems offer a reliable way to enhance safety, with detection accuracy between 88% and 99.5% and low false-positive rates. One company that has seen measurable benefits is waste management firm FusionSite Services, which installed AI…

D-Wave Quantum Inc. (NYSE: QBTS) Demonstrates Quantum Supremacy on a Real-World Problem

D-Wave has shown quantum computational supremacy on a useful, real-world problem, a first in the industry, highlighting the potential of quantum computing for materials discovery and complex simulations beyond classical computational limits. A peer-reviewed paper published in Science validates that D-Wave’s annealing quantum computer solved a magnetic materials simulation problem that is beyond the capabilities of classical supercomputers. The simulation, which took minutes to solve on D-Wave’s system, would require nearly one million years and more electricity than the world’s annual consumption on a GPU-based supercomputer. The Advantage2 annealing quantum computer prototype was used to achieve this milestone and is…
