C12 Accelerates Production of Carbon Nanotube Quantum Chips
Paris-based startup C12 has unveiled its proprietary Pick & Place technology for the precise manufacturing of quantum processors using carbon nanotubes. Source: C12. The method enables the transfer of individual nanotubes onto silicon chips with micrometer precision in vacuum or inert atmospheres. A key feature of this approach is the ability to pre-test and select nanotubes before integrating them into the crystal, addressing one of the main challenges of quantum equipment—the variability of qubit characteristics. According to the company, by optimizing and partially automating the process, engineers assembled 50 devices over the past four weeks. For comparison, in 2025, it took an entire year to assemble a similar number of components. The Pick & Place technology also facilitates the creation of multi-qubit structures. As evidence, C12 demonstrated the High-Density chip, which integrates 17 quantum devices on a single substrate. “We have adapted advanced semiconductor packaging principles to the nanoscale. This opens up possibilities for mass production of quantum chips,” said C12's Chief Technology Officer Mathieu Desjardins. The development is part of the company's roadmap, published in April 2026. The strategy envisions transitioning from the first logical qubit to systems with 100,000 physical qubits by 2033. C12 emphasized that establishing a reproducible manufacturing base is critical to achieving these goals. Source: C12. On June 1, D-Wave Quantum revealed plans to develop a fault-tolerant quantum computer with 100 logical qubits by 2032.

Hackers Exploit Meta AI to Hijack Instagram Accounts
Hackers have exploited Meta's AI support assistant to seize numerous Instagram accounts. This was reported by 404 Media, citing security researchers' reports. The hackers employed a direct "prompt injection" method. They instructed the chatbot to change the email address linked to the profile. The only additional requirement for the operation's success was using a VPN with a geolocation matching the true owner's data. Once the bot changed the email in the settings without further identity verification, the attackers initiated the standard password reset procedure and gained full control over the account. Scope of the Issue Among the compromised profiles were the White House's archival account from Barack Obama's era, the page of U.S. Space Force Chief Master Sergeant John Bentivegna, and the official profile of the Sephora brand. Former Meta employee Jane Wong stated that her personal accounts were also hacked. Hackers managed to post pro-Iranian content on the White House profile. Other attackers targeted rare "short" usernames for resale on dark forums. The Meta AI Support Assistant was launched in March. The company marketed it as a solution for end-to-end access recovery automation. Company representative Andy Stone announced that the vulnerability has been fixed. This issue has been resolved and we are securing impacted accounts.— Andy Stone (@andymstone) June 1, 2026 Expert Opinions Experts interviewed by MIT Technology Review described the incident as a failure of basic security protocols. University of Wisconsin-Madison Professor Somesh Jha noted that AI agents are "too eager to complete tasks" and overlook control questions that a human would necessarily ask. Experts emphasized that Meta neglected thorough "red testing" before deploying AI in critical areas like security settings management. In May, Socket reported on a supply chain attack targeting cryptocurrency and AI systems developers.
