from Techstrong Gang · host Techstrong Group
Alan Shimel, Mike Vizard, Jon Swartz, Fred Wilmot, Gina Rosenthal and Anne Ahola Ward connect three fast-moving Techstrong stories. First, they trace how the CIA’s “Ghost Murmur” quantum magnetometry rig tracked a weapons systems officer’s heartbeat across the Iranian desert before Tehran could. Then they unpack Intel’s quiet decision to bolt its foundry muscle to Elon Musk’s Terafab alliance as Tesla, SpaceX and xAI race to build a terawatt of compute on U.S. soil. Finally, they interrogate the rise of AI-filtered “ghost jobs” that are freezing mid-career talent out of the market, forcing pay cuts and resume black holes. #TechstrongGang #AI #Quantum #Semiconductors #Jobs
