CBP Tech Acquisition Experts on AI Quantum Sensors for NYT Investigation

I’m reporting on U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s new contract with General Dynamics to develop AI-powered 'quantum sensors' aimed at detecting fentanyl and other narcotics in vehicles. The effort includes building an AI database to analyze sensor data, but many technical details remain unclear, including detection methods and how AI will be integrated. If you have knowledge about CBP's technology acquisitions, experience with quantum sensing, AI databases for chemical detection, or insights about related contracts with General Dynamics or Thermo Fisher Scientific’s Gemini analyzers, please get in touch. Are you a current or former government employee who wants to talk about CBP's technology? We'd like to hear from you.
