Artificial intelligence and quantum computing will be a game changer for just about every major industry, creating big opportunities for companies, such as ZenaTech Inc. (NASDAQ: ZENA), Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA), Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ: AMD), Palantir Technologies (NASDAQ PLTR), and C3.ai Inc. (NYSE: AI). With both, the world may be able to solve problems far too complex for typical computers within minutes, or even seconds.
In fact, the US Department of Defense, along with other federal agencies, is calling for advancements in quantum-resistant communications, post-quantum cybersecurity, and quantum sensing for drone navigation in GPS-denied environments to ensure US defense and aerospace superiority.
In an effort to strengthen its position with drones, artificial intelligence, and quantum computing, ZenaTech’s Zena AI Just Launched a Quantum Computing Initiative for US Defense and Homeland Security Drone Applications
ZenaTech (NASDAQ: ZENA) just announced that its defense-focused subsidiary, Zena AI Inc., will initiate quantum computing activities and a flagship initiative called “Eagle Eye.”
This initiative will integrate AI drones, historical and real time data, and quantum computing to deliver a host of predictive insights, accelerated decision-making solutions, and optimized and enhanced performance for US Defense and Homeland Security agency applications.
In fact, by aligning Zena AI’s defense mandate with ZenaTech’s R&D work in quantum computing and its ZenaDrone drones, the company is positioning itself to deliver unparalleled capabilities in national security, military logistics, battlefield simulation, and cybersecurity.
As noted by Shaun Passley, Ph.D., ZenaTech CEO:
“The fusion of quantum computing and advanced AI drone technology will redefine defense operations and we plan to be at the forefront of this transformation. The vision for Zena AI and our Eagle Eye initiative is to deliver powerful, smarter, faster, and more secure operations specifically for the US defense community.”
“By combining real-time drone data with historical defense intelligence, we can deliver predictive insights, accelerate decision-making, and optimize military logistics, while ensuring secure communications and stronger situational awareness. Equally important, this initiative can help enhance training and scenario planning through high-fidelity simulations, giving defense and homeland security operators the decisive edge they need to stay ahead of evolving threats,” he added.
We also have to consider that future aerial threats to national defense and homeland security are expected to continue to escalate because of the proliferation of GPS jamming, hacking, or the use of swarms of drones to disrupt operations.
To keep people safe, government and defense agencies need drones that are smarter, more secure, and able to work together in large numbers. AI can help drones quickly recognize risks, coordinate in groups, and operate with less direct control, while quantum technology can provide stronger security, dependable navigation, and better planning even when systems are under attack.
By bringing these advances together, drones can support military missions overseas as well as homeland tasks like border security, disaster response, and protecting critical infrastructure, ensuring faster responses and stronger protection in the face of evolving threats.
Other related developments from around the markets include:
Nvidia just reported revenue for the second quarter ended July 27, 2025, of $46.7 billion, up 6% from the previous quarter and up 56% from a year ago. NVIDIA’s Blackwell Data Center revenue grew 17% sequentially. There were no H20 sales to China-based customers in the second quarter. NVIDIA benefited from a $180 million release of previously reserved H20 inventory, from approximately $650 million in unrestricted H20 sales to a customer outside of China. For the quarter, GAAP and non-GAAP gross margins were 72.4% and 72.7%, respectively. Excluding the $180 million release, non-GAAP gross margin for the quarter would have been 72.3%. For the quarter, GAAP and non-GAAP earnings per diluted share were $1.08 and $1.05, respectively. “Blackwell is the AI platform the world has been waiting for, delivering an exceptional generational leap — production of Blackwell Ultra is ramping at full speed, and demand is extraordinary,” said Jensen Huang, founder and CEO of NVIDIA. “NVIDIA NVLink rack-scale computing is revolutionary, arriving just in time as reasoning AI models drive orders-of-magnitude increases in training and inference performance. The AI race is on, and Blackwell is the platform at its center.”
Advanced Micro Devices announced financial results for the second quarter of 2025. Second quarter revenue was a record $7.7 billion, gross margin was 40%, operating loss was $134 million, net income was $872 million and diluted earnings per share was $0.54. On a non-GAAP basis, gross margin was 43%, operating income was $897 million, net income was $781 million and diluted earnings per share was $0.48. As previously announced, our second quarter results were impacted by the U.S. Government's export control on our AMD Instinct™ MI308 data center GPU products. For the quarter, these restrictions led to approximately $800 million in inventory and related charges. Excluding these charges, non-GAAP gross margin would have been approximately 54%. “We delivered strong revenue growth in the second quarter led by record server and PC processor sales,” said Dr. Lisa Su, AMD Chair and CEO. “We are seeing robust demand across our computing and AI product portfolio and are well positioned to deliver significant growth in the second half of the year, driven by the ramp of our AMD Instinct MI350 series accelerators and ongoing EPYC and Ryzen processor share gains.”
Palantir Technologies announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025. “This was a phenomenal quarter. We continue to see the astonishing impact of AI leverage. Our Rule of 40 score was 94%, once again obliterating the metric. Year-over-year growth in our U.S. business surged to 68%, and year-over-year growth in U.S. commercial climbed to 93%. We are guiding to the highest sequential quarterly revenue growth in our company’s history, representing 50% year-over-year growth,” said Alex C. Karp, Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Palantir Technologies. U.S. revenue grew 68% year-over-year and 17% quarter-over-quarter to $733 million.
