CGI and D-Wave Partner on Enterprise Quantum Computing
THE SO WHAT
CGI pairing with D-Wave to offer enterprise quantum services is a signal that quantum is moving from lab curiosity into the consulting toolkit—sold as optimization and simulation projects, not qubits.

Deep & Emerging TechData Center Debt Is Making Investors Choosier: Cisar
AI data centers are now competing in a crowded, debt-heavy high-yield market—capital is no longer free just because it’s “for AI.” If you’re planning large-scale infra, expect tighter underwriting on power, utilization, and offtake contracts and be ready to prove you’re not the marginal, overlevered build in the stack.
Deep & Emerging TechPG&E CEO Warns California on Wildfire Liability Crisis
Wildfire liability isn’t just a utility problem—it directly affects timelines and costs for new clean energy and AI power projects if insurers retreat and customers eat more catastrophic risk.

Treat every customer dataset as if it might eventually leak and design retention, tokenization, and minimization policies accordingly.
