US Quantum Push: Billions for Hardware, Utility Still Missing
Uncle Sam is pouring $2 billion into quantum computing hardware, signaling its strategic importance. The real challenge, however, lies in making these powerful machines actually useful.

PsiQuantum is set to receive a $100 million boost from the US government, aimed at accelerating quantum computing hardware development and bolstering the American semiconductor industry.
The race for quantum supremacy just got a massive infusion of cash. IBM and the US government are betting big on a new foundry, Anderon, to build the future of quantum computing.
What began as an unsolicited call in 2013 has blossomed into TSMC's colossal $165 billion investment in Arizona. It's a seismic shift in global chip manufacturing strategy.
Everyone figured 2025 would be TSMC's gate-all-around victory lap. Instead, we got diamond heat sinks inside chips, stamped silicon fabs, and a U.S. policy gut-punch that exposes the fragility of innovation pipelines.
Raccoons once claimed Intel's idle Fab 9 in New Mexico. Now, fueled by CHIPS Act cash, it's central to the company's advanced chip packaging push.
The most significant U.S. industrial policy in decades: how the CHIPS Act's $52.7 billion in subsidies is reshaping where and how semiconductors are manufactured worldwide.
Semiconductors have become a central front in great-power competition. Here is how the CHIPS Act, export controls, and the Taiwan question are reshaping the industry.
