For decades, the pursuit of quantum computing has struggled with the need for extremely low temperatures, mere fractions of a degree above absolute zero.
South Korean researchers have maintained plasma temperatures of 100 million degrees Celsius for 48 seconds inside a tokamak fusion reactor.
Elon Musk's brain-chip startup Neuralink livestreamed its first patient implanted with a chip using his mind to play online chess. The implant seeks to enable people to control a computer cursor or keyboard using only their thoughts.
The European Union’s parliament approved the world’s first major set of regulatory ground rules to govern the mediatized artificial intelligence at the forefront of tech investment.
After learning and performing a series of basic tasks, this AI was able to provide a linguistic description of them to a ''sister'' AI, which in turn performed them.
Researchers have developed an AI method that can predict Alzheimer’s Disease up to seven years before the onset of symptoms.
The team behind the research, from the University of California, Riverside (UCR), says that the work has huge potential, not just for boosting hardware performance but also increasing efficiency and significantly reducing energy use.
Researchers at RMIT University find a way to replace the electrolyte in lithium-ion batteries with water, an innovation that could remove the fire risk entirely.
For the first time, researchers have demonstrated that optical data storage capacity can reach the petabit (Pb) level. The storage capacity within the area of a DVD-sized disk is equivalent to at least 10,000 Blu-ray disks.
OpenAI announced a new generative AI system named Sora, which produces short videos from text prompts. The high quality of the sample outputs published so far has provoked both excited and concerned reactions.
The JET tokamak set a new world record for generating energy from nuclear fusion during its final experiment.
Billionaire technologist Elon Musk announced this week that his company Neuralink has implanted its brain-computer interface into a human for the first time.
NASA and Lockheed Martin formally debuted the agency’s X-59 quiet supersonic aircraft Friday. Using this one-of-a-kind experimental airplane, NASA aims to gather data that could revolutionize air travel.
Scientists achieve groundbreaking room-temperature quantum coherence for 100 nanoseconds, propelling molecular qubits closer to practical quantum computing.
A supercomputer scheduled to go online in April 2024 will rival the estimated rate of operations in the human brain, according to researchers in Australia. The machine, called DeepSouth, is capable of performing 228 trillion operations per second.
