MIT physicists have developed a technique that allows them to arrange atoms in much closer proximity, down to a mere 50 nanometers.
Proximity is key for many quantum phenomena, as interactions between atoms are stronger when the particles are close. In many quantum simulators, scientists arrange atoms as close together as possible to explore exotic states of matter and build new quantum materials.
Scientists have discovered an ocean about 700 kilometres below the Earth’s surface. It is triple the size of all the oceans on the Earth’s surface combined.

If consciousness is 100% physical, we would have to conclude that the same kind of consciousness that we experience as humans can be generated by non-biological entities (eventually). Conversely, if non-biological consciousness would somehow, someday, prove impossible, then consciousness would have to embed some nonphysical aspect. But how would we ever know?

Many pancreatic tumors are like malignant fortresses, surrounded by a dense matrix of collagen and other tissue that shields them from immune cells and immunotherapies that have been effective in treating other cancers. Employing bacteria to infiltrate that cancerous fortification and deliver these drugs could aid treatment for pancreatic cancer, according to newly published findings from a team of University of Wisconsin–Madison researchers.
They’re related to electric cars but have pros and cons that make them very different.
What makes an economy “intelligent?”
It seems to boil down to mastering the latest technology in the most effectively self-serving way. Countries have been taking turns at some version of this for a long time.
We’re finally starting to see what can happen when we put an advanced AI “brain” in a state-of-the-art robot “body” — and it’s remarkable.
