Scientists prove 'quantum theory' that could lead to ultrafast magnetic computing
By Peter Ray Allison published
Superfast magnetic memory devices are possible after scientists engineer way to use lasers to magnetize non-magnetic materials.
OpenAI unveils huge upgrade to ChatGPT that makes it more eerily human than ever
By Ben Turner published
ChatGPT's latest upgrade means the voice assistant can now respond to audio, text and visual inputs in real time. The new chatbot, named ChatGPT-4o, will be rolled out to alpha testers in the coming weeks.
'Quantum-inspired' laser computing is more effective than both supercomputing and quantum computing, startup claims
By Owen Hughes published
The desktop-sized LPU100 eschews traditional electronics and qubits in favor of lasers, and it can reportedly perform complex AI calculations in nanoseconds.
China creates its largest ever quantum computing chip — and it could be key to building the nation's own 'quantum cloud'
By Owen Hughes published
China’s supersized superconducting chip looks to match the performance of industry leaders like IBM and will be used to help scale up the performance of quantum computers globally.
MIT gives AI the power to 'reason like humans' by creating hybrid architecture
By Nicholas Fearn published
MIT scientists devise three abstraction libraries that can be combined with AI systems to improve their reasoning and contextual awareness in programming, strategic planning and robotics.
