The Radical Movement to Worship AI as a New God

Posted by in categories: information science, robotics/AI

I for one welcome our godlike AI overlords we should be so lucky to have them lol 😆 😄They can help with humanities homework 😄


With algorithms starting to govern more and more aspects of our lives, it was only a matter of time until someone started to deify them.

Quantum Machine Learning over Infinite Dimensions

Machine learning is a fascinating and exciting field within computer science. Recently, this excitement has been transferred to the quantum information realm. Currently, all proposals for the quantum version of machine learning utilize the finite-dimensional substrate of discrete variables. Here we generalize quantum machine learning to the more complex, but still remarkably practical, infinite-dimensional systems. We present the critical subroutines of quantum machine learning algorithms for an all-photonic continuous-variable quantum computer that can lead to exponential speedups in situations where classical algorithms scale polynomially. Finally, we also map out an experimental implementation which can be used as a blueprint for future photonic demonstrations.

New kind of quantum transport discovered in a device combining high-temperature superconductors and graphene

Posted by in categories: particle physics, quantum physics

Developing new quantum devices relies on controlling how electrons behave. A material called graphene, a single layer of carbon atoms, has fascinated researchers in recent years because its electrons behave as if they have no mass. For decades, scientists have also been interested in high-temperature superconductors: ceramic materials where electron interactions yield a macroscopic quantum state where electrons pair with each other. They do so at a temperature above the usual superconducting temperature of metals, which approaches absolute zero.

In a recent study published in Physical Review Letters, researchers from the SUNY Polytechnic Institute, Stony Brook University and the Brookhaven National Laboratory in the US, along with Aalto University in Finland, demonstrated a new electronic device that employs the unique ways in which electrons behave in these two materials— and high-temperature superconductors.

The experiment, led by Sharadh Jois and Ji Ung Lee from SUNY with the support of theoretical work done by Jose Lado, assistant professor at Aalto, demonstrated a new quantum device that combines both graphene and an unconventional high-temperature superconductor.

The Search for Solutions to Colorado’s Water Crisis

Posted by in category: sustainability

According to this article Colorado will run out of water by 2050. The way we can stop this situation is with desalinated water that can fill underground aquifers.


Nearly half a million homes in the Centennial State could be without water by 2050. Colorado River reservoir levels are in a free fall. And local farmers already don’t have the supplies they need. What happens next depends on what we do today.

Robot hand uses ‘skin’ to hold chopsticks, balls, and bubble wrap just right

Posted by in category: robotics/AI

The 3D-printed appendage is designed to be low-cost and energy-efficient, capable of carrying out complex movements despite not being able to use each finger independently.

Professor Fumiya Iida, of the University of Cambridge’s Bio-Inspired Robotics Laboratory, said the goal was to “simplify the hand as much as possible”.
