5 misconceptions about AI security: Here's where the real risk exists
Across all the AI deployments I've reviewed in a range of industries, one pattern stands out: Organizations are looking for risk in the wrong place. Their focus tends to settle on the model itself, including its training data, safety controls and behavior. But in practice, that's rarely where things break down.

The State of Digital Humans
Digital Humans are emerging as a new class of intelligent interfaces that combine realistic avatars with AI to deliver natural, task-oriented interactions. Built on four layers - avatar interface, AI conversation engine, orchestration layer, and integrated external systems - they move beyond chatbots to become always-available digital workers. Adoption is accelerating due to advances in generative AI, real-time rendering, speech synthesis, and enterprise pressure to automate and reduce costs. Key use cases include customer concierge services, HR onboarding and support, banking assistance, healthcare coordination, and public-sector service interfaces. Looking ahead, Digital Humans will become proactive, autonomous coworkers optimized for sustainability, context retention, and experience quality.

Enhancing Reinforcement Learning with Quantum Computing for Robotic Arm control
Reinforcement Learning has emerged as an interesting approach for the control of robotic arm movement in unstructured environments. However, the challenges of learning versatile control capabilities are still far from being resolved for real-world applications, mainly because of two issues of such learning paradigm: the exploration strategy and the slow learning speed. The application of Quantum Computing to Reinforcement Learning promises to solve such issues.
