One Biosciences raises €15 million to accelerate precision oncologyParis-based One Biosciences has closed a €15 million Series A round led by Redmile Group and Blast, with contributions from Galion.exe, Invus, and Sofinnova Partners. The funds will be used to expedite clinical development of OneMap, an AI-driven single-cell transcriptomic platform, and to scale strategic partnerships. Founded in 2020, One Biosciences combines single-cell analysis with AI to transform cancer diagnosis and guide individualised treatment decisions.Q.ANT secures €62 million to advance photonic computingQ.ANT, a German deep tech company, has raised €62 million in a Series A funding round led by Cherry Ventures, UVC Partners, and imec.xpand, with participation from L-Bank, Verve Ventures, TRUMPF, and others.This investment will accelerate commercialization of Q.ANT’s energy-efficient photonic processors for AI and high-performance computing, according to a press release. The capital will drive production scale-up, product development, team expansion, and the company’s entry into the US market.QpiAI raises $32 million to accelerate global quantum computer rolloutBengaluru-based QpiAI has raised Rs. 279 crore ($32 million) in a Series A round led by Avataar Ventures and India’s National Quantum Mission, according to a press release. Existing and new investors also joined the round.QpiAI develops full-stack quantum computers and real-world quantum applications for industries like pharmaceuticals and automotive. The funds will speed up utility-scale quantum computer delivery and global expansion. The company, led by Dr. Nagendra Nagaraja, has teams in India, Finland, and the US.Lovable lands $200 million from Accel to expand AI-powered app buildingLovable, an AI startup in Stockholm, has raised $200 million in a Series A round led by Accel, catapulting its valuation to $1.8 billion.

The funding will fuel product expansion and global growth.Tech giants warn window to monitor AI reasoning is closingMeanwhile, a coalition of AI leaders from Google DeepMind, OpenAI, Meta, and Anthropic has published a position paper that issues an urgent warning that the ability to monitor how advanced AI systems “think” could soon be lost.Among the “Expert endorsers” of the paper are Geoffrey Hinton, widely referred to as the father of AI, and Ilya Sutskever, co-founder of OpenAI and founder of Safe Superintelligence Inc.In the paper, which was published on July 15, they advocate for intensified focus on monitoring chain-of-thought (CoT) reasoning — a key method for glimpsing the decision - making of top AI models. The researchers call for new safety measures, stressing that without action, AI reasoning may become opaque and unmonitorable as technology advances.The abstract of the paper reads as follows: “AI systems that ‘think’ in human language offer a unique opportunity for AI safety: we can monitor their chains of thought (CoT) for the intent to misbehave. Like all other known AI oversight methods, CoT monitoring is imperfect and allows some misbehavior to go unnoticed.”“Nevertheless, it shows promise, and we recommend further research into CoT monitorability and investment in CoT monitoring alongside existing safety methods. Because CoT monitorability may be fragile, we recommend that frontier model developers consider the impact of development decisions on CoT monitorability.”In ConversationIn-depth conversations with entrepreneurs, investors, industry leaders and other stakeholders building India’s deep tech and climate tech ecosystems.InsightTakeaways from conversations with entrepreneurs, investors, industry leaders and other stakeholders building India’s deep tech and climate tech ecosystems.Previous This is a public episode.
