Thinks for the extra references. I can't penetrate the brochure-speak either... even HONE which sounds like yet another gussied up machine learning platform. Of course, a great deal of the success in that domain is it's application. I'm assuming they are stirring in some Quantum just to create the appearance of an "edge".
Do you have any more insight into what HONE is beyond the words that make the acronym?
