The release of DeepSeekâs new model has shaken assumptions about who has the upper hand in developing the technology.
The chip has broken new ground in a key random circuit sampling benchmark, an important development in Googleâs roadmap for fault-tolerant quantum computing.
A team of engineers, physicists and computer specialists at Canadian company, Xanadu Quantum Technologies Inc., has unveiled what they describe as the worldâs first scalable, connected, photonic quantum computer prototype.
In their paper published in the journal Nature, the group describes how they designed and built their modularized quantum computer, and how it can be easily scaled to virtually any desired size.
As scientists around the world continue to work toward the development of a truly useful quantum computer, makers of such machines continue to come up with design ideas. In this new effort, the research team built a quantum computer based on a modular design. Their idea was to build a single basic box using just a few qubits for the simplest of applications. As the need arises, another box can be added, then another and anotherâwith all the boxes working together like a network, as a single computer.
OpenAI, in partnership with Retro Biosciences, has recently made significant strides in human longevity research with the development of GPT-4b Micro. This advanced artificial intelligence (AI) model could potentially revolutionize cellular reprogramming and open new avenues in the field of biology. Although this innovation is exciting, it still requires thorough scientific validation to establish its true potential.
For decades, scientists have been endeavoring to unlock the secrets of cellular processes. In 2020, Google DeepMindâs AlphaFold marked a significant breakthrough by predicting protein structures with astonishing accuracy. Now, OpenAI has entered the fray with GPT-4b Micro, a model expressly designed to analyze biological data and hasten scientific discoveries.
According to Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, âHyper-intelligent AI tools could revolutionize science and lead to advancements we could hardly have imagined.â With Retro Biosciences, which specializes in longevity research, the goal is lofty: to extend the average human lifespan by a decade.

Cerebras Systems announced today it will host DeepSeekâs breakthrough R1 artificial intelligence model on U.S. servers, promising speeds up to 57 times faster than GPU-based solutions while keeping sensitive data within American borders. The move comes amid growing concerns about Chinaâs rapid AI advancement and data privacy.
The AI chip startup will deploy a 70-billion-parameter version of DeepSeek-R1 running on its proprietary wafer-scale hardware, delivering 1,600 tokens per second â a dramatic improvement over traditional GPU implementations that have struggled with newer âreasoningâ AI models.
A general approach to a quantum theory of gravity has found a surprising relationship between the quantum fields of massive particles.
It is commonly believed that there is a mind-body problem because we can give an explanation of matter but not of the mind. But according to John Collins, we donât understand matter either. Materialism was refuted by Newton in the 17th century, and the physicalism which has replaced it is not a substantive doctrine. There are gaps in our understanding of the mental â we still do not have a good theory of what the mind is â but after Newton, there is no âmind-body problemâ
Minds are problematic. We donât quite know what they are. If one has a mind, let us agree, then one is sentient and sapient, able to be self-aware and to think and reason about things. But both of these qualities are opaque, not least because they have no apparent analogy in the non-mental world. What, exactly, does one need to add to a body to get a mind? How is a thing that is merely subject to physical laws self-aware and able to think about dinosaurs and the afterlife? This conundrum is invariably depicted in terms of there being a mind-body problem. Iâll try in what follows to give you reasons to think that this label is at best misleading. There are lots of mind problems and lots of body problems, but no mind-body problem, because there is no realm of bodies in some general sense from which minds are excluded. Before you call for an intervention, let me explain.
A potted history.
